PCA Schedule Now Available at PokerStars

One of the most exotic live poker tournaments in a year is the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. The event takes place every year in the luxurious Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas since 2005. It was first organized in 2004, when the tournament was held as an event of the WPT on a luxury cruise ship visiting Miami, Florida, Jamaica, Mexico and the Cayman Islands.
