PokerTek, the company who manufactures the PokerPro live digital poker tables has entered an agreement with Carnival Cruise Lines to place machines on all 22 of its ships. PokerTek started a trial run with Carnival in April of 2006, and the cruise line liked the PokerPro tables so much they ordered enough for the entire fleet.

The two companies have also teamed up to offer the Carnival PokerPro Challenge. Players can win satellites to the main event for $150 on select ships starting in January. Players who win the satellites receive $750 and entry into the October final.

Satellites for World Series of Poker events have also been won on PokerPro tables on Carnival ships. PokerTek tables are showing up in casinos around the world, and its WSOP-branded play-for-amusement heads-up bar game is being distributed in every major American market.
