All Contestants Must Attend Captain's Meeting April 13, 2019 @ 10:00 AM
How it Works
At the mandatory Captain's meeting, participants will receive a participation coupon (to be stamped at each stop). Participants must visit five docks, where they will have their coupon stamped and then draw a poker card from an envelope.
An official will mark their coupon with the rank and suit of the card drawn at that stop. When all five stops are completed for each participant they will return to the Fort Pierce Yacht Club for scoring and results. Poker hands will be scored using standard poker hand rankings (i.e. Royal flush, straight flush, four of a kind, full house, flush, straight, three of a kind, two pair, one pair, high card).
