Hmm...so, anyone thinking on going to this? I am thinking this would be a perfect vacation/birthday get away for the wife and I. She can drink and play in the sun, and I can play cards..

Anyone know when the schedule usually comes out? Always 2nd week of January?

    I was at the PCA this year. The only thing that stops this from being the ultimate poker vacation is the weather. Sometimes it can be crappy in January. For most of this year's trip, it was close to 80 but a couple days it rained and was in the 60s. Not great beach weather. Some years I heard the weather was really awful.

    The poker is unbeatable. More cash games than any major casino in Vegas and minimal wait times. All levels of action and tournaments in all price ranges. I think the cash games stop at 4am each night and get started around noon.

    Atlantis is probably one of the best resorts in the world and the casino is pretty decent as well. Food is very $$$ on Paradise Island.

    Definately going to hit this up one year.

    My order of preference for tourneys:

    WSOP Main Event (doing this year)
    PCA
    Aussie Millions

    When at the Atlantis check out the amazing Black Bean Soup at Anthony's Restaurant. It is across the road in the little plaza.

    Ive been 2 out of the last 3 years, and it is beyond amazing. Both times Ive had an awesome time, the poker is out standing there. A lot of tables are running, sngs, cash games, tourneys. The Sngs are pretty weak too, and if your lucky youll get a table of people that will do some last longer bets, juices the pot up a bit haha.
    Weather isnt always great, but I spend most of my time at the poker table anyways, so having 5 good days of weather is good enough for me haha

    Is the 5% max $10 rake beatable? That rake is pretty brutal.

    some of us don't have a problem beating $20 rake for 5/5..lol. Plus the HH.

    Yes, IMO

    Max $5 rake works out to about $35,000 a year.

    You must make over $100,000 a year to beat a $20 rake.

    That's a lot of money to me. I'd rather see that money in my pocket.

    If you're a bored billionaire, $$$ six figures doesn't matter.

    Found a 3 bdr house 10 min. from Paradise, with a rental van and elec. scooter included for 2500 usd/wk (6 persons). I don't think that is terrible there is it? Atlantis seems crazy expensive.
