Partypoker continues to challenge PokerStars with tournaments

PokerStars cornered the market on Caribbean poker tournaments, but that could soon change. Partypoker has announced its live-action Caribbean Poker Party (CPP), scheduled for November 9-17 at the Baha Mar, a resort that only opened this past June. If being able to play poker against the backdrop of a tropical setting isn’t enough, the tournament series will also offer over $22 million in guarantees.
