HHHHHEEEEELLLLLLLLLLOOOOO gouret guide: I think most cruise lines have them and they are fairly common. Same with Black Jack tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poker tournaments are almost guaranteed to happen, and they are also guaranteed to be push-fests. You start out super short-stacked, and the levels are short. There is no skill involved; you have to be ready to shove with your AJo and hope you run good; otherwise, you will just get blinded out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it depends.....my daughter and son-in-laws (2) have either won or come in second on all four of our last cruises. Even with a streak of "luck" I doubt that they would have faired that well? And there were at least 3-4 really great players on each of the above cruises..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlk1013 Posted October 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I have played in many tournaments on Princess and Celebrity. They are a lot of fun and we always had a great time. Try it....you will enjoy it! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpenglow Posted October 30, 2011 #6 Share Posted October 30, 2011 On Princess, the tournaments are with electronic tables, right? Is it like an MTT setup with more than one PokerPro, or just basically a SNG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
