Aruba is not a poker mecca. There are 3 rooms. Generally each room will have at best a couple of tables going, mostly at low stakes. The games will start anywhere between 8 to 10 pm. In theory, locals are only allowed to go to a casino 8 days a month. While I didn't see any enforcement, I'm sure it caps what Aruba Poker can be. You're also going on the off season, which is going to reduce the number of players around.
Unless your new wife likes playing at a casino, my suggestion is to focus your attention on her, not spending time by yourself at the table. Poker will be around after your honeymoon.
Thank you, and thankfully I have a balanced outlook on life and poker these days, so the vast majority of our time will indeed be honeymoon activities as opposed to me frothing at the mouth for some poker action (this might not have been true a decade ago)
If anyone has suggestions about bringing us money and/or optimizing that aspect of it im all ears.
