Deb&Bert Posted February 8, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2006 The Glory did have the Texas Holdem Table (1) At anytime there was atleast 10 to 20 people on a waiting list. Most people would get on.. and would stay on for hours.. We had a group of 45 people and at any given time we had 6 to 8 of our own people at the table.. We also brought our own chips and played many 20 to 30 person tourns upstairs by the fish and chip area on the Glory... LOTS OF FUN!!!! The table is $2.00 $5.00 blinds and 5-10 limit... Most ran it to the river card. Lots of chasers!!!!! But our people made lots of money. One took over 1000.00 home!!! Good Luck and Have lots of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadbug Posted February 8, 2006 #8 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Leaving on the Victory this Sunday.....unfortunately no Hold-em is set up yet on this ship...read a GREAT idea on another board----bring my own chips....and get a game(s) going on the Lido deck---sunshine/fresh air----and NO HOUSE RAKE!

Deb&Bert Posted February 8, 2006 #9 Share Posted February 8, 2006 deadbug That is what we do.. We split our chips up so each person carries 100 bring cards, We either sit in the back of the ship on the lido deck, or go up stairs in the back of the buffet area.. Some ships have the fish and chips up there!! Lots of fun.. We do either a 10.00 buy in per person or a open buy in of 100.00 We feel we would rather play among our selves, then have others take our money. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinkitten Posted February 8, 2006 #10 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Glad to see cruiseships getting into to hold-em craze. However they all seem to have a limit. Does anybody know if any ships do No-limit texas Hold-em. My b/f would love that. He says he will go on any cruise that has a no-limit table.

yeshli2nuts Posted February 14, 2006 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Im going on the Carnival Spirit in August. How many holdem tables are on the Spirit and do you think there will be long waits for the tables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfsmith Posted February 14, 2006 Author #12 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I would expect wait lines on any ship as they will not have many tables due to space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
