The growing poplularity of Texas Hold-em in casinos and poker rooms around the world has convinced the cruise lines to take a second look at this game. While while not wildly profitable for the house, it is a wildly poplular for the dedicated players always on the look out for a game.
When our main site, www.cruisejungle.com launches in April, it will contain a complete guide to gaming on all cruise ships. Until then, here's some breaking news about the addition of computerized "Poker-Pro" tables to some Princess Cruises ships:
PokerTek completed the trials of its automated PokerPro tables with Princess Cruises and has equipped three Princess ships. Twenty-two tables are scheduled to be installed on the fleet by year’s end.
PokerPro is a 10-seat table that can deal 50% to 60% more hands per hour than a manual table, according to PokerTek, the Charlotte, N.C.-based manufacturer.
‘We continue to be impressed with how quickly the Princess guests learn to play PokerPro and how reliable the product has proven itself,’ said Rodney Dofort, vp casino operations for Carnival Corp.
