Carnival Cruise line just informed me today that the Blackjack tournaments will not be open to passengers on the cruise unless booked through Jim Thomas at Point Loma Travel as part of the Blackjack Cruise. However passengers that contact me before Oct. 15th, 2005, that did not book through Jim (Point Loma Travel) will be allowed to play in the tournaments since this wasn't what I was orignally told. I must turn in a list of players by the 15th if you are wanting to play in the tournaments aand DID NOT book through Jim (Point Loma Travel). I will be posting the tournament locations and schedules shortly now that Carnival has sent me the information. Please contact me if you have any questions.
