Aside for the slot pull on the first day, I’ve been so busy I haven’t been in the casino. Color me shocked!!!!😲 How much is the tournament to play? Any rebuys? And what’s the final payout? Thanks Edited May 12, 2022 by LaCal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes thank you. I always make a special request pre cruise for a specific location due to some issues we have. On the other RCL ships we didn't have to specify which dining room only MDR. I understand Ovation has 4 dining rooms so I need to decide which to request. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With traditional you will be limited to Chic and Grande. Biker, who would choose Grande since the tassels at the bottom of the chairs in Chic are annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The host decides unless you say something and subsequent times you are likely to be seated in the same room/area. Biker, who prefers the far back area of Icon.

Rare graphicguy Posted May 12, 2022 Author #488 Share Posted May 12, 2022 For those who follow any of the cruise Vloggers/ YouTubers, I had the pleasure of meeting Chris Wong who has his Royal vlog, which follows his work as a Casino Host. Very personable and likable young man. Helpful, too! Glad I got a chance to chat with him. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get enough people signed up, I prefer the no-rebuys as too many people have that online approach of playing wayyyyy too overaggressive and shoving constantly early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah….if I beat someone once. I don’t want to have to play again and again because they lose and keeps rebuying. It’s a tournament. You put someone out, they’re out. Cash game? Different story…Reload all you want. Edited May 12, 2022 by graphicguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a cash game guy myself mainly because I hate that approach at low entry, multi/unlimited rebuy tournaments. At least you don't see a ton of it in Vegas (have had some decent tournament success there), but don't get out there too often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
