ATLANTIS-BAHAMAS-CARIBBEAN POKER CLASSIC & MORE/ PAST-PRESENT
Hello to all ,
Vacation time with some poker in the mix , So I went with my kids to Atlantis in Bahamas to play in the WPT -Caribbean Poker classic back in 2005. Great place to vacation . One of the best water slide parks around, plus amazing live fish tanks , including sharks, and sea life habitat . It has a Casino and the beach , jets skiing plus its great for kids .. Bonus swimming with the Dolphins..
Fast forward 2018 , I was snooping around for a good spot to go this year ,, My kids are now adults for the most part and I saw on the poker sites that Poker Stars was bringing back the Caribbean Poker Classic this year !! Wowza .. Lets go back all these years later .. This year my son can play ,Thats a Bonus. . So Jan. 10th we are on our way .. Photos of 2005 trip below . Poker and family vacation all in one , Should be great . I will review the island and resort when I get back and post some pics of the trip .. Time warp for me ..

Hi J - BIG thanks for your support on my post - really appreciated!
Hope you always get all the aces :D
pretty good! Congrats! :)
I am!!! Do I need a passport for this??! Interesting in going!
You don't need a passport to get into the Bahamas from USA as long as your getting there by a cruise or private boat or private plane .Then a drivers license will work . Most of USA citizens go by commercial airline though .. The airline will require a passport so they can be sure you will get back into USA on return flight .So in short you likely will need one if traveling commercial air line ..
Got it thank you!
to cruise to bahamas, if you dont have a passport, another form of proof of US citizenship is needed like a birth certificate. Always check with the cruiselines first before buying, some are more strict than others.
Man do I wish. Still playing the local clubs x)
Local clubs have some great games ,, Thanks for the reply
I remember going there as a child, it was a great time. Alot of fun!
