Two Months to Go till Caribbean Poker Tour Opener
Posted by: Jo Martin - Sat, 2013-09-21 05:38
For poker players already loathing the approach of the Northern hemisphere winter, the Caribbean Poker Tour appears to be the perfect getaway excuse. Taking place in a tropical paradise, the tour’s first stop is slated to kick off in less than two months, on November 8, on the beautiful Caribbean Island of Punta Cana. The first stop features no fewer than 7 poker tournaments, so there will be plenty of action indeed. The Main Event of the Punta Cana stop will be a $1.5k
NL Holdem tournament, sponsored by
William Hill Poker.
The second stop of the tour is also an extremely promising one: later in November, the tour will move on to the island of St Maarten, for 12 more tournaments, one of which will be a WPT Main Event. The scene of the action will be the Casino Royale in Maho Bay, a truly idyllic place, indeed unparalleled as a winter getaway.
Besides the above said WPT Main Event, the St Maarten stop will also play host to a $7k high roller, called the Lucky Number 7 High Roller, which will be hosted by Tobias Reinkemeier.
Qualifying to the various CPT events is possible of course online, at pretty much every member room of the iPoker network. William Hill Poker runs online qualifiers and so do Titan Poker and
Winner Poker. The packages offered by these online qualifiers are diverse but they’re all extremely attractive.
The Ultimate Caribbean Package is the most valuable of the three: it’s basically a 17-day Caribbean experience, worth a total of €7.5k. The St Maarten Experience is a 10-day package, the value of which is €5k. Last but certainly not least, the Punta Cana Experience package is worth €4k.
Players should view each and every one of these packages as an opportunity for the vacation of a lifetime, with a bit of poker sprinkled on top.
