I would like to support DTD"s very ambitious plan to guarantee a £1m prize pool at their leg of the UKIPT, which will run between April 11th & 16th.

To that end, I am proposing to run a satellite to the £770 buy in main event, which will run alongside match 4 of the National Online League, this Sunday night.  The National Online League will start at 7pm (with a 1 hour late registration) and our DTD £1m UKIPT satellite will start at 8pm.

With an estimate of between 300 to 400 players playing the National Online League match, we can generate 6 seats at DTD if we can get 200 runners into our satellite at a £25 + £2.50 buy in.  Ambitious perhaps, but we will generate a seat for every 31 runners in the satellite. 

To play in a £1m event at Europe"s finest poker room would represent an outstanding opportunity for a large number of our members, so let"s all get behind this event and get as many APAT players into the draw as we possibly can.

The satellite is now available to register via the PokeStars lobby - Tourny / Private.  The structure will be the new improved National Online League structure, which will feature 4k starting chips and 12 min blinds, with 3 new levels added to offer even more play in the early stages of the tournament.

More information about the event is available via Leigh's thread here.

So who"s up for it?

If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

100% in and I"d love to see APAT run tournaments with seats to other big live events, it would be cool if something could be arranged for the 2013 WSOP?...

Definitely Dean.  You"ll be contributing to the creation of additional seats and if you"re lucky enough to scoop again, maybe sell it at a discount as a part staking deal?  Totally your call, we"d love to see you in.

Strength to the minority...

The format was changed as it finished too late for a few so we changed it...

I am working nights on Sunday so can this be played on Monday instead....  ;)
