No more BJ tournaments on Sensation??

[Tom-n-Cheryl]

OK.. so I am WAY late in posting this, and it might have already been covered in another thread (but I did not find it)...

 

On our 5/29/14 sailing on the Sensation I was told that they no longer have the Blackjack tournament -- at least that was the case on three night sailings. They were still offering the slots tournament.

 

I have ALWAYS played in the BJ tournaments on all our many Carnival sailings, so this came as quite a shock to me... especially since getting the (now diluted perk) of a BOGO entry for the tournament thanks to our past guest level.

 

So tell me... is this just on 3 night sailings.. is it just on the Sensation... or was that a "test period", and now they've brought them back?

 

Thanks,

 

Tom

Hi, Tom. Nice to see you back on the Carnival board. I have not heard anyone on this board mention this! Very surprising to me. I haven't been onboard since early April though and will not be onboard again until early September, so I can't give you any recent feedback. My last 3 Carnival cruises in November, January, and April all had BJ tourneys. It's been a long time since I did a 3 day cruise too so I can't speak to that.

 

Wow. I will be interested to see if anyone else says this about any other ships. Thanks for the info.

I suppose I should have seen this coming... lol

 

Yes, on the Sensation the casino host (manager?) did mention that it had been discontinued on short sailings. I did not ask her if it was limited to this ship.

Not on that sailing - we booked WAY too late!

We were on a 5 day Liberty sailing last week and there was a Black Jack tournament. I believe it was on the 3rd day. Slot tournament was the last day.

I did a 5 day on the Paradise last month & was offered the BOGO for the Tournaments also. I thought it was for Black Jack but could have been Slots. At the start of that cruise they finished installing what looked like new tables in the Casino.

Thanks for staying on my (intended) topic! :)

We were on Sensation last week of June and I just pulled all my fun times to check and no black jack tournaments are listed on any of them and it was a 3 day.
