thank you very much for the info and the time you took. Unfortunately, i'm not 21 and i'm disappointed because i was looking forward to buying into this event.

Anyways, thanks again and have a great time on the cruise.

See you on the cruise for PPM VI? Or will you have to wait longer than that. Thanks for the good luck. I'll report back to 2p2 with how I do.

I think it is about 10k for the buy in and then about 3k for the trip itself.

it was going to be a $14k buy-in and a $17.5k total 'package'...but they have since dialed it back to be the as last year.

tournament = $10.2k
cabin = $2.5k
cash for expenses = $800

So when you win a seat on Party you are winning a $13.5k total package.
You are paying for the cabin and spending money in the tournament itself however as they give away one package for every $13.5k in entries (most of the time anyway).
In other words...you are not getting the cabin 'for free' or anything like that.


I'm not sure if the cabin itself is worth $2.5k or if it is a semi-exaggerated price.
My hunch is the latter (most cruises for 2 don't cost $2.5k per cabin as far as I have seen).


To the person who asked about the 20 year-old with extra dough laying around:
We have a handful of 2+2'ers who have been pretty darned successful at this online-poker shtick who have mucho-dinero.
ZeeJustin and Schaefer are a couple of those I believe.
ZeeJustin played in a couple of european tourneys at just 19 I think.
Schafer won some major bucks over there too(don't recall his age).

It happens...the times they are a-changin. Some of these younger guys have won some big ol' bucks in poker

1) Does anyone know how to buy in directly because i can't find any info on their site?

2) Does anyone know the age requirement because again this isn't visibly listed on their site?

Thanks

I don't know... All I know is I am going!!!!

Sorry, just really excited that I won a satellite on PP two weeks ago. When you figure all this out, I'll see you on the boat.

FWIW, I believe the age requirement is 21. E-mail PP customer service, they're pretty helpful.

You really going? Can't wait to get in an argument with you over whether or not you string bet on the 2nd hand! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

without a doubt.

FWIW - they had an address last year that was cruise@partypoker.com (might have been cruises) but they were pretty slow to respond to my questions.

I see that they are requesting that you send questions currently to events@partypoker.

I was just sending my questions to all 3 addresses (info, events and cruise) and hope that ONE of them would send me a freaking answer (and if it actually made sense than that was an additional bonus)
