I’m sure you’ve all heard it before. Lebanon boosts the best universities in the Middle East … blah, blah, and so on. Well, I think our selection of higher education has just got better when I found this in my Inbox this morning:

Poker Classes: Game Theory Lebanon

In the event you need to sharpen your hands at cards, the “school” offers you 30 one-hour classes over 15 weeks to graduate as a pro. Otherwise, if you just want to have a good time (which is the real reason why you go to university anyway), they are offering a “Poker is Fun” mini-class to cover the basics. The school’s website can be found here and I must say, I thank them for adding a link to Casino du Liban on their website. It would be quite detrimental if I gained my degree in advanced Poker and had no where in Lebanon to try my hand.

Oh, I almost forgot, applications for scholarships are open. You just need to bring in your own deck of cards and the cost of the tuition as your bet.
