The World's Quirkiest Adult Camps
Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Connecticut, and Biloxi, Miss.
Why it's fun: At the World Poker Tournament Boot Camp, poker lovers spend a fantasy weekend immersed in poker strategy with poker celebrities including T.J. Cloutier, Clonie Gowen, and Mike Sexton. Campers have lectures and interactive live learning labs where each person sits at a table with a professional player who critiques their play. Many people increase their poker prowess enough to win back their tuition fees.
Who goes: Lawyers, business owners, nurses, doctors, and massage therapists of all skill levels. The average age is 40, and 22 percent are women.
Great add-on: When camp ends, participants test their newly honed expertise in real poker tournaments.
Price: $1,695–$2,995 (camps range from game strategy to all-inclusive poker trips)
