Going Live with Sensei Razavi



Excitement is reaching boiling point as the inaugural Black Belt Nottingham Live is fast-approaching and now less than four weeks away. Scheduled for November 18-20, the Nottingham Live will see players from across the nation ambush the Dusk Till Dawn Poker Club to participate in the year's most affordable and fun-filled event.

For many, the Nottingham Live will be their first foray into the world of live poker, and some will likely be anxious about making that nerve-wracking transition from the virtual felt to green of the live baize and competing in a 400-runner field in the UK's largest poker cardroom.

But don't worry, as help is available in the form of Black Belt and UKIPT Cork Champion Sam Razavi.

Armed with a decade of experience at the live felt, Sam will seek to guide you through those first steps in a one-off live Dojo Session. Starting at 7pm on Friday, November 18, our 'Going Live' Dojo Session is the perfect opportunity for Day 1B players to learn from one of the game's best players before entering the battlefield themselves the following day.

An poker pro from the mean streets of Brighton, Sam burst onto the Black Belt Poker scene when he was one of two winners in Grading III, earning himself an Aussie Millions package. Several weeks later and Sam was A$225,000 richer courtesy of a sixth place finish in the Main Event and had enough Prize Points to become the first player ever to work their way through the Belt-Up Rewards system to Black Belt. He would late go on to win UKIPT Cork and become the overall UKIPT Leaderboard Season Two Champion.

Oozing in onfidence and a master of 'table talk', Sam is the perfect host and will be on hand to answer any questions you may have regarding the live experience, as well as warning you about some of the pitfalls debutants tend to stumble into. And if anyone can tell you about what live tells to be aware of, it's Sam, whose thespian background has made him an expert of reading players and detecting bluffs.

If you would like one of the game's best young(ish) players to help quench those last-minute nerves and introduce you to the world of live poker, then sign up now by purchasing a token with your Spending Points. Tickets are a bargain at just 300 Spending Points, and can be located in the Black Belt Poker Store under 'Live Events'. But don't delay, as the Session is limited to 10 seats and will sure to sell out long before the event.
