ian i played a £25 freezeout last night with no added value which had more than 80 runners in a smaller catchment area than most of the regionals so i think its very likely with the added value that these will sell out
Added value?? What added value? £600 is taken from the prizepool for seats.

The seats are very much in demand as well, don't try and kid yourself any different. These are the seats that sold out within 2 minutes during the first season. Winning a seat into the APAT nationals is very good value.

Ur right from what i can gather
80 x 20 = £ 1600
Minus 75 x 8 = £ 600
£1000 left for top 8
Thats if the event sells out.

i asked about the seats coming out the prize pool i was told the seats were added
guess i am wrong but thats what i was told
it nearly made it a close call to travel or not
but not quite a close call

Winning a seat into the APAT nationals is very good value. I saw no mention of a free buffet, well done on that but i think you may have missed my opening post on this thread, i was referring to the "locals" getting seats before the regular apaters. As for the demand for seats, just how many seats are available in all the sats? ian i played a £25 freezeout last night with no added value which had more than 80 runners in a smaller catchment area than most of the regionals so i think its very likely with the added value that these will sell out

emails not enough, they'll claim they never saw it for ages and continue selling seats. Need to speak direct imo.

All the APAT events are dealer dealt, with no juice. Not surprised that it's not in their mailed out schedule, it seems the casinos' internal communication is worse than their external communication to customers.
