The poker tell guru is back in Vegas.

Next Saturday, (March 31), retired FBI counterintelligence agent Joe Navarro will be at Caesars, Las Vegas, to host his Decoding Poker Tells seminar. The eight-hour instructional course is dedicated to the study of nonverbal behaviors, which in the poker world are known as tells.

The cost for Card Player readers is $799 ($999 is the regular price), and doors open at 8 a.m. Seats are limited to the first 100 registrants and only a few remain. Registration info is listed below.

Navarro has done poker lectures at Camp Hellmuth and the WSOP Academy and several on his own. Navarro takes what he learned and used while serving as a nonverbal communication expert in the FBI and passes it on to his poker students.

Aside from the lecture, students will also play against each other while Navarro watches and deconstructs the players' tells.

Some of the seminar topics are:

  • How to effectively pick up tells in a tournament environment
  • Exercises to enhance observation and decoding skills
  • Controlling your emotions and reactions at the table
  • How to effectively conceal tells
  • Effective bluffing using powerful cues
  • Identifying the most reliable tells
  • What to do with the "unreadable player"
  • Examination of common and uncommon tells
  • Using your hands to bluff more effectively
  • What the eyes really say about an opponent's hand
  • Using eye gaze behavior effectively at the table
  • How to confuse an opponent any time anywhere
  • What each part of the body communicates to others at the poker table
  • Understanding the psychology of nonverbal behavior

The seminar includes breakfast registration, lunch at 1 p.m., and then live cash games, which Navarro will analyze.
