APAT Poker Masters 2013 Discussion Thread

[Bigfella42]

when do the sattys start for this?

I will be keen to play this if it gets moved to the weekend.

Just waiting on confirmation of event dates and then we will put up a satellite schedule and direct buyin on William Hill.

Likely to be the week after the WCOAP.

Any updates on when sats and direct buy in will be available?

Online satellites will be available via APATOnline from Wednesday 1st May. We will post more information before then.

We are finalising the direct buy-in date tonight. So watch this space!

On the reserve a seat thread it mentions paying the reg fee in advance and this being non-refundable. Let"s say someone wants to play the APAT Masters if they do not make day 2 of ISPT, I am guessing you will want the reg fee before all the online ISPT day 1s have finished (30th May). So in that case would someone get the reg fee back if they find themselves otherwise occupied with ISPT day 2b on the Saturday?

Players qualifiying for Day 3 (Sunday) of the ISPT Main Event will be refunded.  Players who qualify for the ISPT Day 2 have the option of the Friday or Saturday and should know in advance that they have made that day, so refunds would be reviewed on a case by case basis.

Players who just don"t show, or change plans would not be refunded.

Nobody has asked the most important questions..

1 Will there be a bar and valet service? If yes then will it be good/close enough to get pissed?

2 If the valet service is good...how far do we need to leg it to get to the nearest conveniences?

3 Assuming the stadium is non smoking, do we need to pre order taxis to go have a ciggie?

4 Do we have to run up and down massive amounts of steps to do any of the above 3?

That will do for starters

If it was 200 (or more) starters I"d definitely play, but presumably space is limited so that"s out of your hands. Good luck to all that do play though.

This is one for Des to answer.  He"s our bar and valet expert

Is this 100 runner cap the absolute number?

If so can we see payout structure?

There may be the potential for some more runners on the day depending on Main Event numbers, but based on 100 runners, a provisional payout would be :-

	£20,000	100%
1st	£6,000	30%
2nd	£3,600	18%
3rd	£2,600	13%
4th	£2,000	10%
5th	£1,500	7.5%
6th	£1,200	6%
7th	£1,000	5%
8th	£800	4%
9th	£700	3.5%
10th	£600	3%

I have reserved my seat and will be coming up from Wales on the Saturday morning, any ideas on rough start and finish times as this obviously affects where I will be staying as don"t fancy having to pay a £50-£60 taxi to the hotel if the trains and tubes are shut.
