Successful turnout I want to congratulate Luckygem for winning our first event. Luckygem picked up over $1,000 for her first place finish. Luckygem was already signed up to go on this years cruise so she is really excited going on it for free...LOL. We had 40 players for our first cruise tournament this year and over $2,300 in prize money. Were hoping to have 40 to 60 players every Sunday that we host the tournaments. Starting Feb. 5th (Superbowl) Global-Player will be hosting cruise tournaments twice a month on the first and third Sunday of each month. Hope to see ya'll there.
