The 2020 Vancouver Island Poker Run starts at 10:30 AM Pacific Daylight Time (1730z) and runs until 3:00 PM (2200z). Within that time, land at as many of the five qualifying airports as you can and collect a poker hand. The top poker hands get bragging rights (and FS Economy prizes if you're part of that world).
The five airports are CYYJ, CYCD, CYAZ, CYQQ, and CYBL.
Fly IFR or VFR, it doesn't matter. Three of the fields are uncontrolled with an MF. There will be staff on the Flight Service Station frequencies at Nanaimo and Campbell River, and on the RCO frequency at Tofino. When you land at a qualifying airport between 1730z and 2200z and are clear of the maneuvering area, switch to the poker terminal frequency, advise your callsign and airfield, and request a card. Please be patient while the card is generated, recorded, and communicated to you before switching back to the appropriate frequency and starting your next flight.
Poker Vancouver Island Resorts
The top hands will be announced on the poker terminal frequency shortly after 2200z. For pilots that participate as part of FSEconomy, there are prizes available.

Poker Table Rentals
A card game requiring skill and daring!
Poker is unique because it’s the only game in the casino where players compete against each other, so there’s no house advantage. It’s just you and your guests trying to outwit, outplay, and outbluff each other. Texas Hold’em is the most popular form of poker in the world – think World Series Of Poker that you always see on TV. If you have any poker players on your guest list you want to have at least one poker table at your party.
Poker Tables are rented for 3 hours per night. Poker tables are 8 feet in size and accommodates up to 8 people. Includes playing cards, Texas Hold’em rules and 500 white, red and green chips
“It was fantastic and the tables were a HUGE hit! For all those hubbies who didn’t want to dance…. Ha ha ha!
