Rev your engines and shuffle up for one of the most exciting events of Colorado Z Fest — the Poker Run Cruise! This unique twist on a classic cruise brings together the thrill of the open road with the strategy and luck of Texas Hold ’Em.

As we hit the scenic Colorado roads, each participant will receive a pair of private “hole” cards to start their hand. Along the route, we’ll make stops for fun, photos, and camaraderie before heading to the Opening Banquet, where the “community” cards will be revealed.

Your goal? Build the best five-card poker hand and claim your spot among the winners!

Prizes will be awarded to the Top 3 hands, so bring your best poker face and a little bit of luck.

Feeling extra lucky? Additional poker hands will be available for purchase onsite — giving you another shot at the top prize and bragging rights among your fellow Z enthusiasts.
