This is a local event and not to be confused with the official 1000 Islands Poker Run in Kingston. See awesome mega horsepower boats churn up the water and roar through the St. Lawrence river.

This is not a race and not a rally, the Poker Run is a game of chance. It is where each participating boat navigates a carefully charted course, stopping at five checkpoints along the route. All safety rules and regulations must be adhered to. All posted speed limits are enforced. Otherwise it is full throttle excitement and speed. At each checkpoint the crew picks up a sealed envelope containing a single playing card.
At the final checkpoint, the envelopes are opened and the crew holding the best poker hand is declared the winner.

Poker Runs are events for the entire family. At each of the five checkpoints, host communities provide unique and entertaining activities, often linked with waterfront events.
