How Well Can You Bluff?

If you're a fan of Texas Hold'em, Carnival has got the cruise(s) for you!

On selected cruises now through June, 30, the Fun Ships will be holding a series of satellite tournaments. Winners of the preliminary tournaments facing off for a cash prize of $45,000 in the “Grand Final Playoff” during the Carnival Fantasy’s October 4, 2008 voyage.

Tournaments will be played on recently installed state-of-the-art PokerPro tables, which clearly and quickly display players’ commitments and table stakes, pot amount and community cards. PokerPro tables also identify the winners at the end of each hand and immediately add the winnings to the player’s table stakes.

First place winners of the preliminary tournaments will win $750, plus entry to the “Grand Final Playoff” on the Carnival Fantasy. Finalists booking their “Grand Final Playoff” cruise will receive an early booking bonus of $100, redeemable on board during the cruise, if they book within one month of qualifying.

Entry fee and buy-in for up to 10 players is $150 each, and rake fees are $15 per entry. Tournaments will be held on all voyages on the following ships from now through June 30, 2008 (with limited exceptions, as noted):

• Carnival Pride (excluding June 15, 2008 sailing)
• Carnival Spirit
• Carnival Conquest
• Carnival Legend
