Nothing set forth herein shall be construed to require Sponsor to hold a WPT® Prime Voyage or WPT® Voyage Event at any particular time, or at all. In the event that the WPT® Voyage Event listed in the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize description does not or cannot take place as scheduled or at all, for reasons included but not limited to scheduling conflicts, cancellations, postponement, an event of “Force Majeure” (defined below), or for any other reason, then in lieu of attending the WPT® Voyage Event, the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner will receive a substitute prize of comparable value which shall constitute full satisfaction of Sponsor’s prize obligation to the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner, and no other or additional compensation will be awarded.

Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received during the Promotion Period.
5. WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION:
At the end of the Promotion Period, one (1) WPT Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner will be randomly selected by Sponsor from all eligible Submissions received during the Promotion Period. The drawing will be conducted by Sponsor or its designee, using randomization methods selected by Sponsor in its sole discretion. A potential winner will be notified through a message on their X account that was used to enter the Promotion. Entrant is responsible for keeping their account information up to date. Sponsor shall have no liability for any winner notification that is lost, intercepted or not received by a potential winner for any reason. Time is of the essence in awarding the prize. If, despite reasonable efforts, a potential prize winner does not respond within forty-eight hours (48) hours of the first notification attempt, or if a prize or prize notification is returned as unclaimed or undeliverable to such potential prize winner, such potential prize winner will forfeit the applicable prize and an alternate prize winner may be selected. If any potential prize winner is found to be ineligible, or if he or she has not complied with these Official Rules or declines the applicable prize for any reason prior to award, such potential prize winner will be disqualified and an alternate winner may be selected. Sponsor may successively attempt to contact up to two (2) potential prize winners in accordance with such procedure, and if there is still no confirmed prize winner after such attempts have been made, if any, the applicable prize may go unawarded. Limit one (1) prize per person, regardless of the number of Submissions.
6. IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner must possess all required travel documents, including a valid passport with an expiration date at least 6 months after the WPT® Voyage cruise end date. Based on your country of citizenship, some ports may also require a necessary visa to enter. The WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner must also comply with any applicable international cruise ship check-in requirements, such as presentation of a major credit card. A deposit or payment in advance, or presentation of a credit card by the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner, may be required at the time of check-in prior to embarking on the ship. Any cruise cancellations or changes to cruise reservations after confirmation must be made with the cruise line directly, and the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner is solely responsible for any charges and/or fees arising from changes made directly with the cruise line. The prize restrictions/conditions stated herein are not all-inclusive and the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner described above may be subject to additional restrictions/conditions, which may be stated in the Prize Claim Documents (as defined below) and/or other travel documents. In the event the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner engages in behavior that, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, is obnoxious or threatening, illegal or that is intended to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass any other person, Sponsor reserves the right to terminate the trip or other applicable experience early, in whole or in part, and send the WPT® Voyage Giveaway Grand Prize winner and/or his or her travel companion home with no further compensation.

FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1- 16; (iii) the arbitration shall be held in Las Vegas, NV; (iv) the arbitrator’s decision shall be controlled by the terms and conditions of these Official Rules and any of the other agreements referenced herein that the applicable entrant may have entered into in connection with the Promotion; (v) the arbitrator shall apply California law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (vi) there shall be no authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class or representative basis, arbitration can decide only entrant’s and/or Sponsor’s individual claims; the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated; (vii) the arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages against the entrant or Sponsor; (viii) in the event that the administrative fees and deposits that must be paid to initiate arbitration against Sponsor exceed $125 USD, and entrant is unable (or not required under the rules of JAMS) to pay any fees and deposits that exceed this amount, Sponsor agrees to pay them and/or forward them on entrant’s behalf, subject to ultimate allocation by the arbitrator; (ix) if the entrant is able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Sponsor will pay as much of entrant’s filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive; and (x) with the exception of subpart (vi) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the rules of JAMS, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein.
