Playing poker can be a thrilling experience in its own right, but traveling to exotic locations around the world to join major tournaments can make it even more exciting.
Poker tour packages combine the leisure of travel with the action of poker, allowing players to enjoy local cultures while proving their skills at the tables. The leading US online poker platform, Americas Cardroom, is known for its luxurious poker packages that give people a chance to win a trip to play poker at elite tournaments worldwide.
Players join a competition like a satellite or rank on a specific leaderboard for a chance to win a package to events like the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series or the Enjoy Poker Tour. Events like the Moneymaker May-Hem can also bring players to action-packed spots like Las Vegas and play among prolific poker pros, such as ACR Team Pro Chris Moneymaker. Aside from poker, players can also indulge in travel experiences by enjoying the accommodation, local scenery, cuisine, and more. Here’s how Americas Cardroom is creating a unique travel experience through poker packages:
Visiting unique locations
Americas Cardroom’s poker tournament packages can bring players to unique poker hotspots worldwide. These destinations may expose people to new travel experiences that they may not have considered before, broadening their horizons while still enjoying the familiar poker environment. Though the platform has sent people to major poker locations, Americas Cardroom has also brought players to places like Jeju Island in South Korea and Aruba in the Caribbean through packages won by playing in satellite tournaments. In late April of 2025, players can also win a chance to play poker in Montenegro in Southeastern Europe. The country is hosting the High Stakes Poker Adventure, which was also previously held at Jeju Island. It’s an opportunity to play among the poker elite and feel the tournament’s energy while exploring a new place and its culture.
Luxurious experiences
Beyond being able to play at exciting poker tournaments worldwide, the Americas Cardroom packages also come with various perks akin to all-inclusive vacations. The platform’s Punta del Este Satellites, which offered the opportunity to win full packages to the Enjoy Poker Tour in Uruguay, provided players with a wide array of benefits to help them maximize their stay. The package included a $2,750 entry fee to the $1.5 Million Final Millonaria and a $1,650 ticket to the $500,000 Main Event, but it also covered a ten-night stay at the Punta del Este Resort and Casino, airfare, spending money, and more. When not at the tables, players can enjoy the resort’s amenities, vibrant nightlife, picturesque beaches, and other cultural experiences, much like a traditional getaway. The packages for other destinations also provide the same benefits.
More variety in destinations
Americas Cardroom has been continuously expanding its roster of poker destinations to bring players to as tournaments become bigger and more popular. Americas Cardroom also provides packages to the Moneymaker Tour, which is headed by Chris Moneymaker. Though it’s a relatively new poker tour, more and more people have been heading to the various stops in places all over the US over the years. This has allowed the tour to expand and add more stops beyond poker and casino hubs like Las Vegas, branching into international locations like Canada and Aruba.
The 2025 Moneymaker Tour made its first venture into the Northeast US with a new destination at MGM National Harbor near Washington D.C. Players near the region may have a chance to attend the tour without traveling far, but it can also be an opportunity for players who live far away to head outside of their own area or the usual poker spots they frequent. The Americas Cardroom packages for the Moneymaker Tour enable players to choose the destination they want to play at, offering freedom to travel somewhere new. With more stops being added to the tour, there’s much more variety in the locations they can choose. More stops may be added in the future, increasing the options available.
