Right ill do all of my comments / questions in one swoop, seems the easiest way to do this.

1. What"s the rule regarding multi-tabling? Player of the Series sounds like something I wanna win :D
2. You say reserved seats, even if all fill up will there be a late reg to events? Just in case some idiot busts level 2 in fixed limit xD
3. Does reserving a seat commit you to play that event?
4. If there"s a space going on apat tv, I"d love to come on for an hour or so. Always got time for you guys and doing some analysis/banter sounds like something I really wanna be a part of

5. **** off, I don"t want another damn silver again! ;-)


1.  TBC, as said elsewhere we"ll confirm once we"ve had our next meeting with the venue.  It might be that players can register for a second event but blind out while they are still in the first.

2.  There won"t be late registration, but there will be alternates for the first two levels. 

3.  No, but we need a common sense approach on both sides. Players should only reserve if they are serious about playing. If you have good chips after a few levels in the early event then release the seat for the second event at the cash desk.

4.  There will definitely be an opportunity. We"ll announce a new hostess over the weekend and schedule some slots for analysts alongside her.

5.  These events are all about the bracelet, but making the medals is always a great achievement.


1. Fair enough be good to know if we can jump between tables
2. Good to know
3. Thats very good to know, ill probably reserve seats in everything but the HR now i know that
4. Fantastic look forward to it :D
5. Love the new bracelets, really do, fantastic idea that one :D

I"m definitely up for analysing the guests.

I"m thinking of running a separate live stream, a bit like Soccer Saturday, where people at home can watch people watching people playing poker.

I think it will be HUGE !!

Hey guys,

Looking forward to my first appearance at the WCOAP, after playing my first APAT tourney a couple of weeks ago (the team evetn @ Luton).

I don"t know if this has been asked before/I"m being blind and can"t see it, but have the structures for all the tournies been posted anywhere yet? I can guess what most of them will be like, probably fairly standard but I"m interested to know how deep and how fast the HU structure... The fast + shallower the better :)

Just another quick one folks.

I"m guessing DTD will be running their normal tournaments alongside this schedule? :)

I would expect so but there may be some moving about.

It will be a combination of NLHE & PLO STT"s, trying to squeeze in a NLHE MTT.  Definitely no Heads Up round, but there will be the inclusion of the Heads Up Shootout Medal Matches as seen at the recent Home Internationals Team Event.

Trying to cast my mind back, to former 6 max events, but did APAT have antes kick in level 5?

May be mistaken.. As I think I busted before then  ;D
