APAT Announces Welsh Amateur Poker Championship

[KingPoker]

for newcy apat i booked a night in the copthorne down by he quay coz it was mine and the missus's 2 year anniversary. Was 190 quid! Didnt even get back there til 1 o clock and had to be out by 12 the next day. May as well have stayed in the car! Lovely place tho. If you go to newcy stay there!!!

Can we change the dates please! 

I was really looking forward to playing this one as i'm only a 45 min drive away from Cardiff and didn't manage to get a seat for the English event.  It's my mother's 60th B'day on the 24th, so no way i can get out of that.  Looks like i'm going to have to wait for the next series to start.

Good luck to all Blondes that manage to get a seat.

Just got a price for a hotel room. I'll see you all at the next event. My budget can't cope with £165 for a room per night. That was with Future Inns and their not-so-easy to get around web-site. I can imagine other hotels charging something similar.

try the quality hotel in tongwynlais. its right off the m4, easily get to cardiff in 5/10 mins by car and my bro used to work there and it is really tidy. Should definately be cheaper than futureinn and because its a bit out of cardiff shouldnt be as pricey!

Hotel news


Sadly there is a complication because the event weekend clashes with the Carling Cup Final at the Milenium Stadium

This will between Chelsea/Wycombe and Spurs/Arsenal so a sell out there is fairly assured


I am advised that hotel rates are already high, however the football  finalists are not settled until AFTER the ticket buying date for this event

It may be an idea to book roooms now, allowing plenty of time to cancel should you not get a seat and know you have certainty of accomoadtion should you get that seat...


In the meantime we'll chase that hotel deal with Grosvenor, but it looks less possible now

Can't find any hotels online with rooms available for the 24th in Cardiff.  Not really able to call round any whilst I'm out here.

Anyone had any luck?

Try the Days Inn - Cardiff Airport.

My mate and I just booked it £130 for 2 nights, in a twin room.

£95 per night for that weekend, weekend prior its £55 so obviously ready for the cup finalists.

theres a road called cathedral road. There areloads of hotels on that street (including charlotee churchs mums one so you could be snuggling up with her). have no ideas what prices would be! And its fairly close to centre

[The_Ant]

I have a great idea!!!!


Make it the weekend after   

[FlyingPig]

Does anyone know the Days Inn - Cardiff Airport hotel?

I am guessing that the are going to be aeroplanes..... But any info will be good info..

I know I have a room just in case I get a seat!!!!   

Although once the fianlists are decided, the rooms will go like wildfire.... There will be more chance of me winning the Sunday Million that people getting reasonable rooms if they dont book soon..

Thanks for the info BTW Tighty!!

I've booked a room there - thanks for the heads up.

£75, which isn't cheap but probably the best available that weekend.

Think I will have to give this one a miss Gangs of soccer yobs roaming the city and extortionate hotel prices don't sound like a good deal. Hope it all goes well though.

I booked a twin room at the Future Inns Hotel this morning... £75 for  the Sat night.

Jury's had rooms available as well... they are in the city centre, not too far from the casino.

Did you call or book online.  I tried to book online today, and was getting the same response as Mary and Joseph in December.
