Our Caribbean Poker Party has now officially started...

After a long journey we offered a very warm welcome to players attending the Caribbean Poker Party at the St. Kitts Marriott Hotel.

With numerous events happening throughout the week both on and off the Poker Table watch this space for further updates...

Players and their guests arrived safely last night on the Gatwick to St.Kitts flight and joined us for our welcome meal and live music, with a special performance by Devilfish!!



Our nightclub opened from 10pm and those who could keep their eyes open, danced the night away and took advantage of the all inclusive bar!



Today we have our Pool Party at 2pm with music from our UK ’s Dan and Adam, and all inclusive drinks from our swim up bar. Photos will be up on the Website , Blonde Poker Forum, Facebook and Twitter throughout the week.

Tonight the poker starts at 5pm with the first of our 2 Super Satellites kicking off at 5pm qualifying players into the $2700 + $300 Main Event (Day 1A Thursday, Day 1B Friday). The next Super Satellite is tomorrow night feeding into day 1B.



Also tonight at 8pm we have a $200 NLH Turbo “Win the Button”. We have a lot of interest in cash games from Dusk Till Dawn guests plus many guests of the hotel who have seen our banners around the hotel and are keen to get involved.



We have updates running on Blonde Poker Forum so sign up and join in the chat whether you are playing poker in St.Kitts, enjoying the social life or following the updates from the UK and wishing you were here

What better way to spend 30+ degree heat than chilling out at the pool with music and a free bar? There was a fantastic atmosphere at yesterday’s pool party whilst players got to know each other and soaked up the sun.



In addition to regular Dusk Till Dawn players, both online and live, we have players attending from all over the globe including a group of 90+ American’s who joined us yesterday from New York for a dedicated week of poker in the sun.

Each day we have scheduled poker tournaments from 5pm onwards to allow players to enjoy the resort at their leisure, many of which have brought families or friends to share their experience.

The food is out of this world with a range of all inclusive restaurants to choose from including the Seafood restaurant “Blue” where Land & Sea (Filet Mignon & Lobster tail) is a popular choice.



Last night we held our first Super satellite, a $500 Freezeout generating 4 seats into the $3,000 main event, congratulations to Dusk Till Dawn regular Ben Vinson who claimed his seat along with Italian Bordin Fortunato, who co owns the hotel and has flown over especially for the tournament.

The $200 “Win the Button” attracted 79 players with first place snatching $4,600 of extra spending money, and Dusk Till Dawn legend Waheed Ashraf taking second place for $3,000 to donate to roulette



Rob Yong, Devilfish and James Dempsey (who this week signed as a pro for IveyPoker; congrats Flushy) were among the high stake cash game players attracting a strong rail of spectators.
