Turks and Caicos O RLY?
Just came upon this scheduled WPT event. Does anyone know anything more about the tournament or the locale? |

Interesting, more of a push from the WPT to grab overseas market share.

Re: Turks and Caicos WPT Event
if they are having a wpt event there, and you plan on going, you will need two bankrolls. i just vacationed there 2 months ago, and it is one of the most expensive places i've been, and i've been all over. average bar and grill type place.....burger,fries, 3 beers...$35 b4 tip. paid 5 bucks for a can of diet coke poolside. six pack of beer at a liquor store 20 bucks. you get the picture.

Re: Turks and Caicos WPT Event
I spent an entire summer fishing in the Turks and Caicos, specifically Providenciales (Provo), the main island where the Club Med is and where the tournament will be held.
IIRC there was no casino, but I imagine Club Med has lots of floor space that will can be used as a poker room. As others have said it is extremely beautiful, great food, some interesting stuff to do, and damn expensive. I'd love to go for this though. |

Re: Turks and Caicos WPT Event
Awesome that they moved aruba dates so that T&C is a possibility. These next 4 months have 7 tournament series for us under 21 folk now instead of just 6 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The WPT event at Turks and Caicos competes HEAD-TO-HEAD against the UltimateBet.net/AbsolutePoker.net event in Aruba. 2. The WPT event in Barcelona, Spain competes HEAD-TO-HEAD against the Moscow Millions, which will take place at the FullTiltPoker.net poker room at Casino Cosmos in Moscow, Russia. Coincidence? Looks like the little "war" between Mr. Lipscomb and the brother-sister combination of Howard Lederer and Annie Duke has apread to both the Caribbean and Europe. For us "neutrals", we will certainly watch with interest to see how this feud unfolds. |
