PokerStars Caribbean Adventure 2018

Welcome to Day 1a of the $10,300 Main Event at the 2018 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure held at the posh Atlantis Resort in Paraside Island, Bahamas. This highly anticipated event is scheduled to play out over six days with two starting flights; Day 1a play begins Monday at noon, and Day 1b begins at the same time on Tuesday.

Last year, Christian Harder took the top prize in this event (held as the PokerStars Championship Bahamas with a $5,000 buy-in) after he reached heads-up play with his former backer, Cliff Josephy, and the two players agreed on a chop. Here's a look back at the previous winners of this prestigious event:
