Montreal Poker run cancelled - Not 1000 Islands

www.pokerrunsamerica.com
Web site says it's cancelled. Anyone know what's up with that? That's a huge run and would be a real shame if it's true.

Sorry for the confusion, I really didn't see Montreal mentioned when I looked.

The confusing layout probly confused you. Looks to me like the Montreal run is what's cancelled?

No way would they cancel 1000 islands.

I have to agree with both the above because they are correct.
1000 Islands is NOT cancelled.

Montreal is cancelled due to problems with the Quebec Authorities. ( Seems like the QPP don't like the noise we make or anything to do with performance boats). They told all marinas not to host poker runs.
Last year we fought it through the courts (which cost $$$$$$) and managed to do the event - This year was looking like a disaster.

We had no option but to CANCEL.

We are trying to combine this cancelled event with the CASINO Poker Run in August.

Check our website in a few days for updates.
