The $500K Punta Cana Poker Classic, which is about to begin in the Dominican Republic, is one of the biggest Caribbean poker tournaments. This year, more than 120 Americas Cardroom players will be at the massive event. Larry Colcy, host of the Living the Dream poker video series, will be there with his video camera and microphone sharing their experience as they compete in the Main Event.
“Living the Dream: Punta Cana 2016” videos are available only on the Americas Cardroom poker news blog beginning this Thursday, October 27th. For a preview of what’s to come, see: Americas Cardroom is Living the Dream at the Punta Cana Poker Classic.
Previous Living the Dream video series have have joined online players at the CPT Punta Cana, the TKPT St Maarten and CAPT Velden in Austria.
“It’s a huge leap from playing online to competing in a big money international tournament like this one,” said Colcy. “Some handle it well, some can’t take the pressure. Fortunately there’s lots of ways to unwind on a tropical island – and those often make for great videos!”
Doug Polk and Faraz Jaka will be guests
Twitch poker guru Doug Polk will be part of the ACR entourage. He’ll offer his take on the tournament in the videos. Faraz Jaka, the “Homeless Millionaire” will also be travelling with the group and featured in videos. His career earnings are over $8 million but Jaka spends so much time travelling to poker tournaments that he finally just gave up his hom. He earned his nickname after a CNN documentary on his unusual lifestyle.
Americas Cardroom is one of the largest and most popular US facing poker rooms. It’s on the busy Winning Poker Network and welcomes players from America and around the world.
