APAT Brum Are you going???

[TightEnd]

I put a dress and tights on but sadly my attempt to pass as a "ladyyyyyyyy" failed, so I recce'd the place instead

Nevertheless, its a huge place on 3 floors and I am assured they can hold 700, all dealer dealt, by using the restaurant floor

There is also a big car park and several hotels in the centre of Brum about 5 mins drive away


Multiple day 1s has been suggested....the issue is our players having to take weekdays off work..but not insurmountable

I didn't get picked in the draw or for the reserve list, Life will go on.... Hopefully they won't all be so far away!

I guess I have to plan for James' Birthday now lol

Every tournament might not need to have multiple day 1's if there's another way of sorting out the registration, but I would have thought that the UK, European and World Championships were going to be bigger events, So I think if people were in these tournaments they would be able to justify (to themselves at least) taking time off work.

The original cardroom when built is now the nightspot used at weekends for gigs and parties, this is where the nations cup was held IFM. That room can hold 70 poker tables on the two levels with a tv table on stage. When Star City opened this was purpose built as the main cardroom and would have been fantastic. Own Bar, spacious etc but it was detached from the pit area, which defeats the object in a casino. When you walk past reception keep on same lavel and take your first right into the room. I got a hard on when I saw it as a cardroom, unfortunately I hated the place itself so made a quick exit and lasted 2 days there

The ladies event was capped at 700 unfortunately only 108 turned up, so I believe (although I am not sure) it was held in the usual cardroom facilities?

[TightEnd]

it was, at the far end of the middle floor behind the table games

Haven't got round to joining yet (but I will, promise) - but if demand is so large - why not have day 1 online a few weeks before, make it $5 or thereabouts and the top X hundred get to the live final.

I stayed at the Brittania in February, it was horrible! lol. But that was coz they mucked up acouple of the "extra's" i ordered. The room is simple enough, but dont order a double like i did as all it is is two singles slided together!!

I agree with Rod, ...a victim of its own success, but a solution has to be sorted so that all those who aspire to play on the  live tour are given a" poker chance"....whether it be online qualification or several live day 1s .
