The Moneymaker Tour will join the Caribbean Poker Series this week for a sun-splashed $1,500 Main Event from October 4-6 at Casino Aruba at Hilton with $200,000 guaranteed. 

The tour started in May of 2023 and the first international stop is part of the Caribbean Poker Series, which has been underway since September 26. The traveling roadshow starring Chris Moneymaker is fresh off of its Cincinnati trip where 505 players turned out for a $1,500 Main Event that guaranteed $500K.

Festivities start Thursday

The party kicks off on Thursday, Oct. 3 with a $100 Cash Survivor in the morning before the $600 NLH two-day event starts at noon local time. Later on Saturday a pool party meet and greet will be held from 7pm until 9pm, when a late night $135 Deepstack flies with a Main Event seat added for the winner.

The first flight of the Main Event starts on Friday, Oct. 4 at 1 pm, but you can qualify in the $200 Mega Satellite that starts at noon. Unlucky Main Event players can jump in the $300 NLH one-day event that starts at 4 pm or another $135 Deepstack with a Main Event seat added at 8 pm. 

Saturday offers the second and final flight of the Main Event with another $300 NLH one-day event at 4 pm and a $135 Deepstack at 8pm. 

Surviving players from the Main Event will return at noon on Sunday for the restart but non-bagging players can join the 11 am $300 Double Stack Closer or try their luck in the 12 pm Mega Satellite into the 2 pm High Roller event. 

PokerOrg will join Chris Moneymaker and the Caribbean Poker Series all week long to bring you the sights and sounds from beautiful Aruba before the tour packs up and heads back to Palm Beach Kennel Club from Oct. 23 through Nov. 4th.
