MIAMI (January 30, 2007) – Carnival Cruise Lines, the world�s most popular cruise operator, and the Ocean Players Club, a casino rewards program for guests sailing aboard the World’s Leading Cruise Lines, have teamed up to host 20 slot and blackjack tournaments throughout 2007 offering more than $100,000 in cash prizes.
The tournaments will be held on 19 different three- to eight-day “Fun Ship” cruises operating January – October 2007, culminating in a “Grand Final Event” aboard the new Carnival Freedom in November.
“With such a wide range of ships, itineraries and departure points, these ‘Wild Winners’ tournaments provide guests with a variety of opportunities to compete in thrilling slot and blackjack tournaments for $100,000 in cash prizes” said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO.
The “Grand Final Event” held on the Carnival Freedom offers $20,000 in cash prizes for the slot tournament, $10,000 in cash prizes for the blackjack tournament. When you play in a blackjack tournament, you are competing against other players rather than the casino dealer. You and your opponents start with the same bankroll and play the same number of hands. The player with the most chips at the end of the round (which consists of a designated number of hands) wins and advances to play other table winners.
