We are looking to build a distinct poker brand in the caribbean. The logo needs to be premium with a fun side and it should be distinguishable from the other logos in the Poker Caribbean Industry including Pokerstars Caribbean adventure and the Caribbean Poker Tour. We have named it West Indies Poker Championships (WIPC for short). It's home will be in Barbados but we want to appeal to Trinidad, Jamaica, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and Grenada. The Caribbean is known for it's bright colours, fun and energetic spirit such as Carnival, and yet relaxation for an escape.
Updates
The type of logo that we are looking for needs to be more fun/playful than serious. In addition we are looking for a logo that can show the connection between poker and the Caribbean in a very clever and subtle way.
We do not want the logo to be very busy so simple but clever is what we are aiming for. If you can take two or three things and fuse them together for the symbol this would be desired. For example: (playing cards, carnival, and feather crown) or ( chips and palm trees) fuse these to make a creative and clever symbol. Designers do not need to be limited to these options, however we thought that using something from carnival combined with a poker element would be different.
We are looking for something unique that does not look like the traditional logos from Caribbean Poker Tour, World Series of Poker nor Pokerstars. The use of vibrant colors are required: designers can feel free to use shades ranging from blue, green, red, yellow,gold, black or grey primarily.
Once the symbol is completed we want to have the text stacked: WIPC West Indies Poker Championship.
We hope that this information helps.

Requirements
Must have
- The use of poker related items. For example chips, generic cards, suits etc. You can also incorporate the use of traditional carnival costumes such as the headpiece or the feathers alone as an overhead above the text for the logo. Colors should be vibrant. A picture of a costume has been included to give an idea of what he headpieces look like.
Nice to have
- Creative concepts that are able to fuse Caribbean with Poker. For instance small detail of the Caribbean archipelago subtly forming the outer curve of a chip. Alternatively if you can find a clever way of fusing playing cards to look like the feathers of a carnival headpiece this can be used as the overhead logo with the text underneath. Should look clean elegant and vibrant.
Should not have
- The predominant use of a spade.
