Ladbrokes Poker Cruise About to Set Sail

Anything a national tabloid newspaper can do, Ladbrokes Poker can do better. However, you don’t need to wade through mounds of paper clippings to bag yourself a cut-price luxury cruise this January.

Upping anchor and setting sail from Florida’s picturesque Fort Lauderdale on January 22nd the Ladbrokes Poker Cruise will take in three exotic locations before heading back to shore on the 29th. Without a Jane McDonald-style warbler in sight the only distraction from the crystal-clear water and glorious sunshine is the £500 Main Event on offer.

The 3-day event will comprise of 2 starting days with the final commencing on the 26th January after which one winner will be crowned the king of the waves. The action doesn’t end there, though, as the poker voyage continues with a £1,500 High Roller event as well as a galleyful of single-table tournaments and cash games.

With sun, sea and poker on offer how can you be a part of the action? Easy. For the miniscule buy-in of just £13 you could bag yourself a cabin aboard the world’s largest deluxe cruise liner, the Oasis of the Seas. Worth £4,000, the package offers some unbelievable value for those with strong enough sea legs to wade through the satellites and float to the top. The full caboodle includes an ocean view balcony cabin, travel money, £500 Main Event buy-in, Ladbrokes hospitality and entertainment for the entire cruise plus meals on board.

This poker festival is certainly not one to be missed and if you’re willing to put in a bit of effort you could find yourself anteing-up at sea and walking away with some serious cash for next to no money.

HOW TO QUALIFY:

There are numerous ways to take to the high seas for the Ladbrokes cruise, so whether you’re an STT wizard or a multi-table demon there’s plenty of opportunity for you to join the action this January. Check poker.ladbrokes.com/en/poker-events/poker-cruise for more details.

1) MTT Monthly Leaderboard

Prove you’ve got the heart and commitment to consistently make money in multi-table tournaments and you’ll not only be rewarded with up to £600 in prize money, but two Cruise Step Tickets worth £52 each. You can then use your tickets to ladder your way up the step system and net a cruise ticket proper.

2) STT Weekly Leaderboard

If you’re more of a singleton and like to condense your tournament game into just a few minutes rather than a few hours, then the bi-weekly STT leaderboard will be something for you to aim at.

3) Freeroll and Direct Buy-ins

If grinding out the games and using your own cash to win a seat isn’t your thing then every Wednesday Ladbrokes are offering a freeroll tournament where 50 people will receive a £13 Cruise Step One ticket. Alternatively players can simply buy-in onto any one of the steps tournaments (buy-ins range from £13 to £120) and earn themselves a prize package the old-fashioned way.
