Read this as a working note from our Boot Camp desk rather than as a sales page: there is nothing to sign up for at the end of it. The aim is that you leave knowing which questions to ask and which answers to distrust. Where the material comes from the site's own earlier years, it is kept as it was written and marked as such.

BIG SLICK IN THE NEWS...

Poker Pro Vanessa Rousso Hosts Main Event Prep Camp Rousso aims to give players a winning edge at the WSOP WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA – June 7, 2010: As players head to Las Vegas this summer to compete in the most highly acclaimed poker event of the year, they will have the opportunity to gain last minute advice from one of poker’s hottest and most successful celebrities, Vanessa Rousso. Rousso is hosting a main event prep-camp for players who want to optimize their playing skill and take their game to a winning level. Every year poker players from around the world flock to Las Vegas to participate in the game’s most prestigious two-month event, The World Series of Poker (WSOP). The event is marked by a series of tournaments where poker enthusiasts compete against players from around the globe to make their mark in the poker world and increase their earnings. The 1st week in July marks the highly anticipated WSOP grand finale, The Main Event. The 13-day tournament typically attracts more than 6,000 players and pays out more than $60 million to those who finish in the top 10%. Last year the winner of the Main Event received $8.5 million. The buy-in fee to participate in this prestigious tournament is $10K. Several poker rooms from around Florida are sending their qualifying players to Rousso’s boot camp in hopes of having a player from the Sunshine State reach the final table. Participants will include players from the Palm Beach Kennel Club, Orange Park Kennel Club and Poker Room, The Isle Casino, and Daytona Beach Kennel Club and Poker Room. The all-day Prep-Camp is open to all players and will be held in Las Vegas on July 5, (day 1A of WSOP) at the Aria Resort and Casino, the newest luxury hotel on the strip. Rousso plans to share her winning secrets and offer instruction highlighting effective playing strategies built around recent changes in the Main Event tournament structure. Camp attendees will receive an official Prep-Camp T shirt and have the opportunity for photos and autographs with Rousso at a “Meet and Greet” reception. With over $3.5 million in tournament winnings, Rousso is not only regarded as one of the top players in the world, but has become one of the most sought after poker instructors. Her ability to teach the game is evidenced by numerous accolades from students who attribute their increased earnings to what they learned at her Big Slick Boot Camp. In fact, of the 50 players who attended Rousso’s Boot Camp in January at the Beau Rivage in Biloxi, 8 cashed in tournaments raking in over $50,000. Last year, one of her student’s took home 40K from the Main Event. Rousso is thrilled to welcome serious players to her boot camp and invites them to sign up on her website bigslickbootcamp.com or call 1-888-33-SLICK for more information. ### If you would like more information about this topic, or to schedule an interview with Vanessa Rousso, please contact Jim Ferrara 561-351-6248, or e-mail [email protected]
