Private Training With One of the Best at PPC Events
![[user272102]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Alex Outhred is a well-known and respected poker instructor whose background includes being an instructor for both the World Poker Tour Boot Camp and World Series of Poker Academey Poker Camps. Not only does he know how to teach the game, he can play it as well as evidenced by two deep runs he's had in the WSOP Main Event. In 2008, he took 54th place out of 6,844 in the Main Event for $135,100 and just last week he finished 140th for $52,141 in the 2014 Main Event.
Outhred recently signed on with the PPC as one of their Team Pro's and is bringing poker learning to PPC stops with his "sat-enlight" training where he will gather a group of players for a single table satellite and discuss the play after each hand with the players at the table. The program has proven to work like a charm as well - three of the players in one of the instructional satellites the other day all went on to win seats into the $200,000 Guaranteed Main Event.
While observing Outhred in his most recent "sat-enlight" he went over bet sizing and aggression and pointed out to a player how making a different bet could have led to a more profitable result. "I want to do this at as many of the stops as I can," said Outhred. "But I also want to get more of the PPC Team Pros to teach these. Give them an idea of how to run these and incorporate their thought processes when teaching."
Just another thing that makes the PPC stand out from other poker tours.
