The much awaited 2013 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) kicks off in the Bahamas where it’s currently 25 degrees celcius and sunny. This will be the 10th year anniversary of the PCA and it will be special.
There are forty tournaments in all that will take place between January 5 -14 and the action today will start off in a big way at noon with the $100k buyin NL – Holdem – Super High Roller – “8 Handed” – Unlimited Re-Entry, an event where in 2012 Canadians Jonathan Duhamel and Daniel Negreanu placed in 4th and 5th place respectively.
The $10,000 signature main event will take place on Monday for six days to crown this year’s PCA champion. Last year there were 1,072 players who played in the main event for a $10,398,000 and it is expected that this year will be as popular.
A couple of thousand of poker players from all over the world have travelled to Paradise Island at the Atlantis Casino and Resort to take part in the action and catch some sun and beach. It is a favourite of many Canadian and we will keep our members posted on the progress made by Canadian poker players as the events unfold.
