888poker is offering a host of qualifiers for the Canadian Poker Tour’s Super Cruise in the Caribbean.
The first tournament is scheduled to set sail on this coming Sunday, February 20 at 20:05 CT. Found under the “Tournaments” Tab with the “Live Event” button, the CPT Cruise Qualifier will feature an entry fee of $180+$15. Registration has been open for a little while now, and many already have their seats reserved.
For those whose bankrolls can’t quite support that sort of expenditure, 888poker has another option. Throughout each day, they’ll be running a series of CPT Cruise Step 1 tournaments, featuring an entry fee of just $2+$0.20. For each $9 in the prize pool, the event organizer will provide another chance for the top finishers to advance up the ladder. Canadian gamers playing at a Bronze or higher level will also be allowed to enter a daily CPT Cruise Freeroll at 17:35 CT, with three seats up for grabs.
Those who advance past the first round will be entered into the Step 2 event and, from there, up to Step 3. Players who have not qualified through the ladder system will be able to simply buy their way into these tournaments, with entry fees of $8.40+$0.60 and $39+$3, respectively.
The goal in all this is to obtain one of 888poker’s $5,000 CPT Super Cruise packages. The details break down as follows:
$1,000 for airfare
$2,300 for a luxury cabin
$1,200 Event buy-in
$500 in spending money!
The cruise itself takes place from April 3-10, 2011. Leaving from the Florida coast, the luxury trip will include “breathtaking scenery, sandy beaches and a No-Limit Texas Hold’em tournament onboard the Royal Caribbean’s Freedom of the Seas.”
