Who the Summit Is For
The BTG Summit is designed for mid- to high-stakes players of any poker variant who take their career seriously — and want more than just strategy. If you're committed to improving not just your play, but your entire life and career, this is for you.
You Might Be...
Aware You're Capable of More
You have the talent, ambition, and potential — but you rarely tap into it fully, and you're still unsure what the next level really looks like for you.
Letting Opportunities Pass You By
You know what you should be doing, but hesitate — and watch others take action and cash in.
Unsure What Elite Players Do Differently
The skill gap isn’t huge, but it’s not clear what the best players are doing differently — or how to close that gap yourself.
Struggling to Consistently Bring Your A-Game
You know how valuable your A-game is — and how much it would be worth to access it more often — but you’re not sure what’s keeping you from it.
Battling Downswings, Tilt, or Burnout
Not every session goes off the rails, but the bad ones add up — and eliminating just a few could mean serious EV.
Alone at the Top of the Curve
You’re surrounded by competent players — but rarely by peers who truly understand what it’s like to operate under high-stakes pressure.
"Being a part of BTG has been the best investment of my life. Nothing comes close."

Speakers & Panelists
The Beyond The Game: Summer Summit brings together some of the sharpest minds in poker, performance, and decision-making.
High Stakes Player and Coach, Founder of Beyond the Game
Phil has built a reputation as one of the most thoughtful and sought-after coaches in poker. He has spent years refining his approach to high-level competition and is passionate about helping others improve both on and off the felt.
Brian Rast, Poker Hall of Famer
Even with six WSOP bracelets, over $27M in earnings, and three $50K Poker Players Championship titles, Brian is best known for his decades-long dominance in high-stakes cash games. A master of the toughest lineups in the world, he’s built one of the most complete careers in the game.
Scott Seiver, 2024 WSOP Player of the Year
A WSOP bracelet winner in six different variants with over $25M in live earnings, Scott has proven himself across the full spectrum of poker — from nosebleed cash games to the highest-pressure tournaments. Known for his unique poker mind, few approach the game the way Scott does.
Jeremy Ausmus, 2024 PokerGO Tour Player of the Year
A six-time WSOP bracelet winner with over $26M in live earnings, Jeremy is one of the most consistent performers in nosebleed tournaments worldwide. He offers perspective on staying sharp and consistent when the pressure — and the stakes — are at their highest.
Elliot Roe, Elite Mental Game Coach
Widely considered the go-to mindset coach for elite poker players, Elliot has helped more of the game’s top pros hit the next level than anyone else. He brings a wealth of knowledge about how the very best achieve their success within poker and beyond.
Samm Murphy, High-Performance Coach
Samm works with elite performers across poker, business, entertainment, and sports, helping them uncover the internal blocks that limit their potential. Along with expertise in work and personal relationships, she helps players recognize and shift what has been undermining their performance.
Blake Eastman, Behavior & Tells Specialist
A former psychology professor and leading authority on nonverbal behavior, Blake led the largest behavioral study ever conducted on poker players, analyzing thousands of hours of footage to decode live tells. He brings a rare blend of science and poker experience to help players spot what others miss — and what they’re unconsciously revealing themselves.
Adrienne Carter, Mental Performance Coach
A former professional poker player and mindset coach to Olympic athletes and executives, Adrienne helps high performers resolve the resistance that keeps them second-guessing — and teaches them how to trust themselves when the stakes are highest.

After the Summit:
Six Weekly 90-Minute Calls with Phil
The Summit isn’t just a three-day event — all attendees are also invited to join six weekly 90-minute coaching calls with Phil to ensure lasting results:
- Talk through your experiences including wins, losses, and tough spots
- Build on the breakthroughs from the summit through ongoing accountability
- Get guidance on your next steps
Schedule
Due to popular demand, we've relented and released the schedule — though Phil’s still keeping a few tricks up his sleeve!
Boost Your EV for Years to Come
Some people think thousands of dollars is a lot to invest into “mindset and performance.”
But how much has tilt and distraction quietly cost them at the table?
From impatience to ego to doubting yourself in big spots — fixing one leak can save you tens of thousands in bad decisions.
And — as I share in this video — a $50,000 mindset fix is nothing compared to the outcomes I want some attendees to walk away with.

The Track Record Behind the Summit
The BTG Summit is a new kind of event — but it’s built on years of proven work. These reflections come from Phil’s past retreats and long-form coaching program. While the format may be different, the core principles behind them remain the same: Helping you reach the next level.

BTG is perfect for the poker pro who's been struggling at mid-stakes for a long time. You're working hard, getting coaching, studying with friends, watching the latest content on video sites, but you're not getting the results you want. BTG can help you get there.

"I expected change, but not to this extent."
- Viktor

Before BTG, things were more cloudy, meaning that non-compulsive decisions were not easy to take and I would take ages overthinking and going back and forth, even for a highly logical individual such as myself. Joining BTG has helped immensely with my fearful mindset.
