TheRick Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Can someone tell me what the current entry fee is for the Texas Hold’em sit n go tournaments on the ships? Is the prize a portion of the entry fees or something else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koepper Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 $100 is the standard entry fee for the Texas Hold’em tournaments. Prize money is from the entry fees and is usually given to the top two players. At night, you need 4 or 5 players to get a cash game going.

Are they still holding Royal Poker Tour satellite tournaments on the ships ? I don’t think they e had a tournament for the past couple of years. Just wondering if they’re still doing the satellites.

Now there are multiple Texas Hold’em tournaments where top two player split a cash prize pool made up of the entrance fees. The nice thing is there is usually one tournament every sea day. The blinds go up very quickly however so you have to be aggressive with your play. The blinds are structured so the tournament is over within two hours.

NapTime Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Last month on Alure the buy in was $100 (1000 chips) and unlimited rebuys for the first hour for $50 (1000 chips) as long as you were below 1000 chips. Some people bought in 4-5 times I know they are trying to get the prize pool as high as they can for the rake but it wasn't fun until after the first hour. Just be prepared going in they will play any 2 cards knowing they can just rebuy BowTieBrigade and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
