So many guys here want to know what they should do in any specific situation. The answer is always (or at least it should be) the same: learn to callibrate.
Imagine being on a chess forum and someone asks "She just moved her knight, what should I do?" The answer would always be "First, tell us where every other piece on the board is."
Problem with pickup is that most guys don't tell you where the other pieces are (what else you've said, what she said, what both of your tones where, what your body language is, where her friends are, what time it is, how much you've both had to drink, etc). And a lot of the time guys not only don't know where the other pieces are, they're not even aware of what pieces to look for.
You can't learn callibration on an internet forum or from a DVD. The only way to learn it is by spending tons of time in the field. In chess you can take your time and study the board, but not with pickup. You have to learn to read interactions quickly, and the only way to do that is with mass experience. At first all you focus on is what you're saying, then you relax and focus on what she's saying. With enough experience you're like a fighter pilot and know the exact location, speed and trajectory of everything in the sky.
Bootcamps can probably help a bit, by having someone else who knows how to observe the field pointing out things you've missed, but that's the extent any company is going to help you callibrate.
It's just trial, error and experience, there is no substitute.






PS: Don't take the chess metaphor too literally and think that you can just memorize all the moves for specific situations. You can't. In chess a pawn has at most 4 moves at any time, the king and the knight only have a maximum of 8. Girls can say virtually anything and with any number of tones. It's impossible to memorize the best response to any situation because there's almost an unlimited number of situations you can find yourself in. Learn to fucking callibrate.

i like the chess metafor. and i love the fact you have to explain that pick up is not exactly like a game of chess. rofl.

but you are right. its a game. a very complex came. my calibration at the moment is where to be sexual and where not to be.

at the moment i am going over board and am now pulling myself back to see where the lines are in certian situations. granted this will not apply to every one but damn im getting there.

good point. thanks for the reminder. calibration is very important. people should not lose sight of it.

your calibration may easily be thrown off by over confidence too. don't forget that!
