The PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Articles | Gambling

The PokerStars Caribbean Adventure has become more than just a tradition for the PokerStars family. It has become an institution in the poker world. Once a year, poker players from all over the world converge on Paradise Island off the coast of Nassau, Bahamas for a week of some of the best tournament poker on the planet. From the side tournaments, to the huge cash games, to the $8,000 televised main event, the Caribbean Adventure is the trip PokerStars players plan for all year long.

Once again, PokerStars is throwing the huge poker party on the Caribbean shores. From January 5-11, 2008, the virtual PokerStars tables will become real for a week. It's a poker players convention with a chance to win some very big cash. Last year, Ryan Daut won $1,535,255 in the championship event. In 2008, it could be you.

If you've been before, very little is changing about the event. The only exception is actually pretty exciting. The PokerStars Caribbean Adventure is now a European Poker Tour event. EPT creator John Duthie and his excellent production team are going to turn the PCA into an international poker spectacle.

PokerStars has just launched its first round of satellites to the event. We can expect them to keep running non-stop for the next couple of months. A quick review of the PCA satellites page shows qualifiers starting as low as $2 (not to mention Frequent Player Point freerolls) for the $12,000 prize package. Win one of the big ones and PokerStars is not only going to take care of your buy-in. It will also cover your hotel stay and travel money.
