Major Poker Runs planned for Florida's west coast
Poker Runs America http://www.pokerrunsamerica.com/index.html and The Florida Powerboat Club http://www.flpowerboat.com/new/index.cfm have both scheduled major events for Florida’s west coast in the coming months. I will attend as many as I possibly can. Here is their schedule if anyone is interested. They are both well run organisations and I can recommend them both.
Florida Powerboat Club:
March 28 – 30 West Coast Poker Run, Sanibel Harbor Resort with Naples Ferrari Club
Poker Runs America:
March 28 – 29 Sarasota / St Pete’s Season Opener, Vinoy Hotel, St. Pete’s
April 11 – 12 High Roller High Stakes Poker Run, South Seas Resort, Captiva Island
April 18 – 19 Ft. Myers 6th Annual Poker Run
May 30 – 31 Center Console Poker Run Hyatt , Sarasota
For more complete information you may visit their websites.

Hello Don. They are very comparable in how their weekends are structured. I find the atmosphere at FBC events to be a little more relaxing and less competitive. Very social events. I'm sure you will enjoy it.
I am disappointed that both organizations scheduled events on the weekend of March 29th so need to sort that one out.

Sounds like alot of fun. I wish we could afford to go. By the time you sit down and fiqure out how much each one of these events cost (Entry Fee, Fuel, Logging, Drinks), I could take the boat 4 or 5 weekends and still have money left over. Have a great time and take a lot of pictures for the rest of us!

I am pretty sure FPC has paid out every winner in their poker runs too..............don't think that can be said for PRA!
