600k fpps to hang out with joe hachem! - Page 2 - Poker News

The most ridiculous part of the trip is how you get private lessons on how to play poker. Most supernova players are probably better than him to begin with.

He just runs bad!

They should make it Daniel N instead ftw, that would be worth it

Whether it's worth it or not depends on your attitude I guess. I like Daniel, don't know why 2+2 has such an ax to grind with the guy, but also not sure I'd spend 600k FPP (if I had that much lol) on that.

Regardless of anyone's feelings though, I'm sure PS would sell a lot more of those packages than the Joe Hachem packages. Nothing against Joe, but let's face it, Daniel is probably the most popular or second most popular player on the circuit today.

Of course, also not too sure how much coaching someone with 600K FPP really needs...

I'm sorry sir but i believe that would cost at least a cool million to hang out with Brad "Yukon" Booth.

Yeah, I realized that was kind of a dumb statement about 10 seconds after I said it.

That was my thought as well.
Obviously this is a silly promotion.
But a number of people don't seem to believe there are many SN's who kind of suck at poker. This surprises me.

Hey, I take offense to that. Joe Hachem = my hero. He is probably the best tourney player ever. If I played on stars, I would switch from cash to sng's (yeah, I'd steep that low)just to grind the fpp's to meet MY HERO.

Also, think of all that he could teach me. He'll teach me how to be a pussy when facing all in situations and look away and he'll teach me how to get on tilt for every little thing.

You are invited to spend an exclusive weekend with 2005 WSOP Champion Joe Hachem! Come and learn poker from one of the top players in the game December 7th-9th in Las Vegas!

A limousine will await your arrival at the airport, and will sweep you off to Caesars Palace, your home for the weekend. We'll start with a cocktail party, followed by a private dinner and a VIP evening at one of Vegas' hottest nightclubs.

The following two days will be spent learning poker from Joe, through both intensive seminars and hands on live workshops. The weekend will culminate with a private poker tournament.

The group is limited to 18 players! This all inclusive weekend includes hotel, food, drinks, poker lessons, tournament entry and much more!

Any other locals feel like finding out where this will be at and just coincidentally showing up that night?

don't know if this has been mentioned already, but i noticed that for stars, you can spend 600k as a supernova to hang out with joe hachem for a weekend! wow!

for comparison, a ticket to the $5200 WCOOP HORSE event is 320k, an EPT package is around 800k, and the porsche and aston martin is around 3m and 5m, respectively, making 600k at a conservative estimate around 7500 dollars in cash value.

How much are you charging?

No. Play the SN freeroll sometime (and I'm not talking early flippaments).

It should just be about chillin' with the guy, not learning poker! Of course there are some high volume players that aren't very good, but for the most part anyone who earns 600k FPP's knows what they are doing and doesn't need a donkament winner teaching them when to fold AK.

Vaswani paid what, over a million to hangout with Ivey for a day or two, almost seems like a bargain.
