Part way through Season 1 I said to Paulie D, at a London Poker Meetup local game, that it was an ambition to put APAT on in Las Vegas.  I can"t tell you how proud I am of this one event tonight.  It"s a major milestone.

Here is curlarge, Richard Baker

All the APATers out here owe Richard a debt of gratitude.

Des and I were struggling for months to get an event in Vegas, knocked back in a few places and it was looking bleak. Then at a late stage Richard came through with a personal contact or two at Caesars Palace and we went from there

Don Logan is the early chip leader, as he has eliminated a local player with turned nut flush against Pocket Kings

It will be interesting to see hope the Vegas players adapt to a structure they wouldn"t normally play at this buy in

From the evidence of this one hand, Kings raise pre, c-bet a two heart flop and then commit the rest of the stack when the heart comes on the turn...some adapting is necessary

If you ask me nicely, I can reveal the names of two notable British players yet to make it to the tournament, suffering the after effects of last night

One played cash in Harrahs til 8am, went to bed the worse for wear then...much the worse for wear....

APAT Chairman Tony Kendall notices the hand coming in his direction just in time

Lovely to see him here for APAT on his last day in Vegas (of course he has jumped into the Caesars afternoon comp!)

Fresh from falling asleep in an Irish bar last night, and having to be escorted to his bed.

Always beware the quiet ones
