scoobdoo Posted May 11, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Did a search and couldn't come up with anything...any insight into the poker offered on the NA? Is there typically much action, lively, what are the limits? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELENPSL Posted May 12, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 12, 2017 In my experience the busyness of the casino depends on where you are cruising. On our Asia trip the casino was empty all the time. It was a very port intensive cruise. On the other hand the casino on the NA last Thanksgiving to the Caribbean was packed. It was hard to get a seat at the three card poker table. We had a great time. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BellaBaci4 Posted May 13, 2017 #3 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Was there a live hold em game? (Not three card poker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olson99 Posted May 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 13, 2017 There are no live Hold'Em poker games. They have tournaments on sea days. First one $30 entry. All others $60 entry. They also have $1/$2 regular games with no limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisePack842 Posted May 14, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 14, 2017 What's the rake on those poker games? That's where they make the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olson99 Posted May 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted May 14, 2017 What's the rake on those poker games? That's where they make the money. For the tournaments they only keep $5 pp. The rest is paid out to top 2 or sometimes top 3 if 10 are playing. I do not play the $1/$2 so I do not know for those games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobdoo Posted October 2, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Update from the final Alaskan Cruise of the year: The twice daily sea day tournament didn’t run once. Rarely did more than a single person register for it. The cash game didn’t run once; most table games were extremely sparsely populated throughout. Not a good cruise for poker.
