Poker on ships

[SJ]

Hi all,

 

A year ago, we were on the Galaxy when we learned they were adding some poker tables to the casino. Just wondering if any of the RCI ships have them, especially the Grandeur and what types of games i.e. limit or no limit tournaments, etc.

 

Thanks for any info you may have.

With the new popularity of hold-em tournaments it would certainly gather alot of interest imo. However, having to provide dealers and then taking thie "small rake" its probably not profitable for the Casino Co. to get unvolved in. And then of course is the issue of taking people away from the slots and table games where money is to be made.

I to have heard of some cruise lines that are offering poker tables or tournaments.

They have texas holdem on NCL ships. My husband played every night on our recent Dawn cruise. I was hoping to lure him onto a RCI Voyager Bermuda cruise this summer. But, if there is no poker we'll have to stay with NCL for now. Maybe the Zenith will have it.......
