Thought of a few more things that might be of interest.
URL for the Players Cruise group
Player's Cruise - Caribbean Poker Vacations.
Relative to the card room setup by the Players Cruise group.
They were more than willing to spread other games, but there just wasn't enough interest on this particular cruise to get a table going. $5/10 NLHE, $2/4 limit, H.O.R.S.E., $1/2 NLHE and $3/6 NLHE all came up in discussions though and had we enough players interested a table would have been started.
Relative to the 'fun ship' Carnival Ecstacy.
It's one of the oldest ships in Carnival's fleet, which probably has a lot to do with some of the things that I complained about like the extremely small quarters, mechanical condition and possibly even the assigned crew. It might also have to do with the passengers since it's only used for short 3-4 day cruises apparently that are by their very nature the cheapest to take.
Take that for what it's worth.
