Well done Divvits, played well all week.

[Divitts.]

well done John and Andrew, good luck in the final

Enjoyed playing games I had no idea about, although did find limit 7 card stud just a little "quiet" for my taste. As for draw I am away to find out how to play it properly...

One point though, not that it made any difference this time to me but it seems a little unfair that players who were knocked out early eg Suzanne got 5 points yet I only got 2 for the Draw.  It seems that if people register after you have been knocked out then the awarding of points for finishing places get mixed up. This is not a complaint only an observation!!!!!!!

Congratulations to Andrew and Johnny, well played guys

Well done Matt for spearheading the rejuvenation of 5-Card Draw.

The changes that online rooms have brought have improved it - the introduction of blinds and elimination of the requirement for openers make it a better game. Boss" slow-motion draws are a bit annoying, but not too much.

It was interesting that numbers held up fairly well through the week, despite unfamiliarity with some of the later games. There is always some fall-off in points-based leagues, as people become unable to qualify, so the numbers towards the end were quite good. It might be interesting to experiment with reversing the sequence, putting the best-known games last, to see how the numbers go.

+1  pretty much dominated the week with deep finishes.. Good play you two now time to let us mere mortals have a chance to qualify

For once in my life I find myself in agreement with John Murray. Has he finally made sense or have I finally lost it?

I really enjoyed playing these games, besides Holdem I have played Omaha a few times but none of the others. The great thing about these bunch of five games with APAT is I can try these and not feel I am making an idiot of myself.  I am really looking forward to playing again this week.

Week 2 kicks off with Pot Limit Omaha this evening at 7pm.  Assuming we hit a minimum of 7 runners, there"ll be 60 minutes of late registration to take advantage of.
