The Black Belt Nottingham Live II is fast-approaching, and is set to land at Dusk Till Dawn Poker Club in less than two weeks' time. Players from all across the country will battle it out at the live felt in one of the most affordable, yet fun-filled events of the year.
For many, Nottingham Live II 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 the 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 18:00 on Friday, August 10, our 'Going Live' Dojo Session is the perfect opportunity for beginners to learn from one of the game's best players before entering the battlefield themselves the following day.
A 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. He would later go on to win UKIPT Cork and become the overall UKIPT Leaderboard Season Two Champion.
Oozing in confidence 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 of 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 at reading players and detecting bluffs.
If you would like one of the game's top 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 'Dojo Sessions'. But don't delay, as the Session is limited to 10 seats and is sure to sell out long before the event.
'Going Live' is just one of many new Dojo Sessions announced for the next six months, which include the return of Mental Game coach Jared Tendler. Click here to check out the full schedule.
