A Poker Run is a powerboat
rally that travels to 5 different locations to pick up a playing card. At
the end of the event the 5 cards are turned in and prizes are awarded for the
top 3 poker hands. Poker runs are controlled events that promote
responsible boating by powerboat enthusiasts. They are not a race.
Participants travel at their own speed. There is no benefit to being
"first" to any of the card stops. A Poker Run is a fun filled event
enjoyed by participants and spectators alike. Poker Runs enhance the
communities they are run in by generating revenue for local business, providing
a spectator event for tourists and most importantly, donating proceeds to a
chosen charity or cause.
