krufrank Posted July 14, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Was wondering how much live NLH is played on the Jewel? Is it just one video table or is there a poker room with live dealers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeterPilot Posted July 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 14, 2023 The Jewell does have several poker tables. When I was on the Jewell in June they had 2 tournaments. One was a satelite tournament for the Poker cruise and the other is a regular tournament. The buy in for the regular tournament was $80US. The tournaments are held on Sea Days.

I know smoking is allowed in the casino but as a non-smoker I don’t find playing at a table with active smokers very fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeterPilot Posted July 14, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 14, 2023 To be honest I did not last too long in the tournament. There was nobody smoking at the table I was on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_DeA Posted July 21, 2023 #5 Share Posted July 21, 2023 No smoking at the poker table, just like land based casinos. Since the Jewell is a midsized ship, poker may be hit or miss, depends on how many players are onboard that particular cruise. On the larger ships you're almost guaranteed a game ever night, but not on the smaller ships. Often games don't get going until 9-10pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastpitchdad Posted July 21, 2023 #6 Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) The rake is absolutely insane, the games are soft so you can still win but the rake makes it a lot more difficult. Edited July 21, 2023 by fastpitchdad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
