Caribbean Poker Classic Cruise

Explore some of the Caribbean's most exotic locations on the world's largest and most innovative cruise ship, whilst competing to become the Caribbean Poker Classic champion of 2008!

Experience a full week of luxury on board the Freedom of the Seas, with complimentary meals, 24-hour room service and the crème de la crème of accommodation that offers spectacular view out to sea, a small sitting area and private balcony.

Whenever the ship is sailing, the Poker Room will be open for you to play your way to the final table on the 22nd November. For those of you who want to experience something a little more energetic, why not try ice-skating, boxing or Yoga.

Qualifying satellites start in May. Details coming soon.

How Do I Get There?

There are two routes to take to experience life on board the Freedom of the Seas, depending on whether you choose to go for the $10,000 CPC Main Package or the $5,000 CPC Lite Package.

We've got a selection of each to give to our lucky winners, so you won't be short of satellite options on your way to the main event.

CPC Package Details

Both packages include seven nights on board the Freedom of the Seas cruise ship, staying in either a Deluxe or Superior stateroom with views of the ocean and a private balcony.

All meals are complimentary and you can take advantage of room service 24 hours a day.

The ship offers some fantastic activities which you can enjoy, including a water park, rock climbing wall, ice-skating rink, and for those after something more relaxing, take in the fresh air with a stroll down the promenade or treat yourself to something special from the four story shopping mall.

On top of this, CPC Main Package winners will be entered into the Main Event courtesy of William Hill, be given an extra $2300 in tournament vouchers and $2000 cash for travel and expenses. CPC Lite Package winners will be given $2000 in cash for travel and holiday expenses.

Plus, all qualifiers will receive an invitation to a casual Welcome Reception from 8:00pm – 10:00pm on the 16th November and a Farewell Cocktail Reception on the 22nd November where players can chat about the week’s events over a Miami Vice or a glass of wine.

The ship will set sail from the Port of Miami at 4:30pm on the 16th November. All winners are advised to be at the port well in advance of departure.
