The annual Leverick Bay, Virgin Gorda poker run is becoming for the Virgin Islands what carnival has become to Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil, or carnival in Trinidad and Tobago.
Every resident for the most part with a boat attends the poker run and over the past years, there have been boats of all kind participating from Puerto Rico, Miami, St. Maarten, Anguilla, and the United States Virgin Islands.
Everyone wants a glimpse
Scores of onlookers, including children, tourists, and the media will line the shore routes or on house pouches with the aim to get a glimpse of the sea lane of the Sir Francis Drake channel littered with boats, people, and the paparazzi.
Many young women have done their nails, and feet along with having the right outfit ready to show and tell, while others have spent some time in the Gym to show off on top of some of the well-known power boats and big yachts around the Virgin Islands.
Meanwhile, Government Officials including Premier and Minister of Tourism Dr. the Honourable D. Orlando Smith (AL) and the Organizers of the Leverick Bay Poker Run Committee have urged all boaters to practice safety at sea and to comply with all the rules set out to make the event a success.
Registration will begin at 8:00 a.m. today May 28, 2017, where boaters will be able to purchase at least one 'hand' per boat (a hand is a wristband that allows entrance into each stop, and at each stop, participants pick up a card for the game).
Time for Today's activities
The costs of a hand is $250 dollars, and buying a hand means that you, as an individual, will be participating officially and have the chance of winning big cash prizes by obtaining the best poker hand possible. At 10:15 a.m., the first card is selected at random only by those who purchased a hand and who are participating officially.
The official start of the run is at 11:00 a.m. with the 1st Stop/Card at Trellis Bay, Tortola, 2nd Stop/Card Foxy's Taboo, Jost van Dyke, 3rd Stop/Card Scaramouche Restaurant, Tortola, 4th Stop/Card, Pirates Bight, Norman Island and the 5th Stop/Finish Line, at Tortola Pier Park.
All Boats are expected to be back at Leverick Bay, Virgin Gorda by 5:30 p.m. when the prizes will be announced.

- job (28/05/2017, 10:51) Like (31)Dislike (10)ReplyGreat event for all but we often turn a blind eye to the source of income for all those expensive boats
- No Name (28/05/2017, 13:07) Like (22)Dislike (29)Reply@ job
And that's your business????- job (28/05/2017, 13:32) Like (21)Dislike (16)Reply@ No name, no it's not. No wonder the BVI the way it is and we continue to loose our young men then we wonder why.
- Corruption (29/05/2017, 06:29) Like (5)Dislike (4)ReplyYes it is actually. It is my concern since as we climb the corruption index ladder the harder it becomes to attract business to the BVI. That difficulty affects everything and everyone and makes life harder.
BVI is not self sustaining. Therefore anything that has the potential to make my life harder is my business.
Stop condoning crime and corruption.
But you must know why you are, am sure. - if the drugs are distributed to the young people of the bvi its everyone's business, strups.

- How many decent law abiding residents have no interest in this? Too many
- Moore (29/05/2017, 09:10) Like (4)Dislike (4)ReplyFor the haters.
Nothing wrong with have some fun. Let us see Police porker run team, Customs team and Financial Services Compliance team out in the water where the action is taking place, rather than complaining.
Free up the jet skis while we are thinking straight. - More,More,More! (29/05/2017, 22:07) Like (10)Dislike (0)ReplyBad enough so many fatal auto accidents happening in BVI due to speeding and wreckless driving. Now these idiots are putting the lives of others innocent boaters in the line of fire with this stupidity.
