CARIBBEAN POKER PARTY (CPP) *** DO YOU WANT US TO DO THIS AGAIN?
***
Okay - in November 2016 it's the 10 year anniversary of DTD winning its court case and getting its licence to open. Some of you will remember what a nightmare that was. To celebrate this - there is a possibility IF there is enough interest that we go back to the Caribbean and do the Carribean Poker Poker (CPP) again, I would be interested in your views whether this is something that floats your boat.
The last CPP info is here
http://caribbeanpokerparty.comHere is a rough outline of what we are thinking of doing;
1. Nick Whiten has talked to a few hotels and we have a few nice options, e.g. - the Hard Rock in Punta Cana link here
http://www.hardrockhotelpuntacana.com/ Dates would be same as last time - 26th November - 3rd December 2016
2. I would approach partypoker to be the official sponsor and our partner - there would be plenty of qualifiers from 1c, we would prob start with $10,000 packages for 2 people (that would pay for 2 x flights, full inclusive accommodation for 2 and 2 x$2000 buy-ins), we would also offer single package satellites
3. I would approach WPT, instead of doing a $5000 High Roller we would kick off the week with a WPT Main Tour Event $5000 buy-in which would lead into the partypoker $2K Main Event. Both the WPT and partypoker Main Event would be $1M Gtd each. We would have some cheaper side events $100 to $500 like last time.
4.The theme of the week would very much like the last CPP, ie. FUN - we don't start the poker till the sun goes down and there are plenty of activities and parties and stuff for families with kids
5. We would look to charter our own partypoker plane from the UK,maybe with a couple of poker tables in the breakup the journey
All feedback appreciated. If there is enuf interest from you guys - I will speak with partypoker and WPT.
