 As you can see they are worth many £000s for each event.


This is unclear, how many?


We will send out a reminder email to all those who register an interest and the first 120 respondents on 1st Sept who pay to enter (!) are in the first comp


Does registering interest give you priority?

registering interest does not give you priority for Event 1 entry but you will get an advance notification email


Ace2M, you can sign up for membership via the £10 route now too

I can only see the option with the promo code, so you need to buy their magazine???

Hi IFM,

The guaranteed added value to each tournament is as follows:-

For each of the English, Welsh, Scottish and Irish Amateur Poker Championships - 1 x European Poker Tour main event package, to include flights, hotel and the tournament seat.   

For UK, European and World Amateur Championships - 1 x World Series Of Poker main event package, to include flights, hotels and that all important tournament seat. 

For our player of the year - 1 x PokerStars.com Caribbean Adventure World Poker Tour package, again to include the flights, hotel and tournament seat. 

So all in all, 8 premium tournament packages on offer. 

I would hope you can agree that entry to the English Amateur Poker Championship, at £75 for a 120 runner field, looks like extraordinary good value.  We have certainly worked very hard with PokerStars to deliver 'value' for our Members.  And we believe this is only the start.

With regards to your other question, early tournament registration will not give you priority, but it will ensure you get a reminder. 

What we have avoided doing with this first tournament, is allowing Members to purchase seats immediately as we genuinely believe they would have sold out in the first few days.  Members discovering the site later this week or next week, through the next phase of our launch campaign, would have been disadvantaged.  And we did not want that to occur.  We hope everybody can work with us on this one.

Regards,

Des Duffy
Managing Director
Amateur Poker Limited

if you do not have a Promo code, just press JOIN then SUBMIT on the relevant part of www.apat.com without entering a promo code

You'll then join paying £10 not £5

Am I right in thinking that these events are going to be direct buy-in only?

Don't think that would go down too well with the sponsors!
