APAT Announces Welsh Amateur Poker Championship

[TightEnd]

just wondered how the hell you have managed to cram 180 seats in the cardiff grosvenor?

The main cardroom holds 100+, they are giving us the restaurant area for extra space/tables the first day


which is very nice of them!

A quick question:

You know the satelites on Stars, will it be 1 x seat for every $150 in the, or just 10 seats guaranteed no matter how many entrants. Also if it is 10 seats and there is money leftover, will this be paid out in the satelite event or in the Cardiff event?

GL to all blondes going to this I won't be making the journey myself to keep up my 100% cashing rate but for those who are going I have no doubt it is going to be another cracking event.

Who will I give my chips to this time (if I get a seat that is)?

two satellites


5 seats available in each. Each winner gets a fifth of the prize pool in effect to cover seat cost and expenses


In time for future events I hope we'll be able to expand both the live and online satellite qualifying schedule

Just read the details properly..... Hmmm My humble apologies for asking questions that you have already supplied the answers to.....

" £10 + £3 satellite "  can you charge £3 registration fee ? I thought you could only charge 10% registration fee if it's being held in a casino .

Was going to say the same, Matts done me in both times really. GL to all blondes in getting a seat.

that was the case, but all Grosvenors and many other chains have introduced a new scale of seesion charges in line with the opportunity afford then to do so by the GC


See various threads on here (sorry, do a search, a bit hectic!)

Yep Tighty... a satellite AFTER the click fest would be fun .....lots of players and money after the last 5 seats ??

A pity about the dates, purely through a Scottish perspective. That is the same weekend as the first of Galas British poker tour in the Edinburgh Maybury. With over 20 live satellites throughout Scotland and numerous online sats it will occupy a lot of the Scottish boys who would otherwise be down in Wales.
Good luck with the event however, hope a blonde takes it down!

It can't be helped. This is the reason why I won't be attending anywho.

[TightEnd]

its a shame yes..the weekend before is the Walsall GUKPT, the weekend before that was a "no" for the venue, the weekend before that had hotel availability issues due to Six Nations Rugby...and we wanted to get an event on!

[The Dundonian]

No criticism intended Tighty, you can't please all the people all the time thats for sure.

you mean people actually pay good money to watch 30 men chase an egg? 

They should play our version where you chase the chicken!! Much more entertaining
