I can"t keep up.

Rob complete from the SB and we see a flop

Flop

Rob bets 60k....Nick raises to 250k

Rob thinks but announces All-In.

Nick doesn"t take too long to call.
The cards come over and Rob shows pocket for the overpair and Nick shows J6 for the open ended straaight draw.

Turn

River

...and Rob is our Team event winner.

Photos to follow etc.

Me...I"m off to the bar.

1st: £1,950 Robert Hallworth, Gambling Network forums + Gold Medal.
2nd: £1,080 Nick Mazur, Blackbelt Poker + Silver Medal.

[jansen1978]

To all at APAT. Great weekend had by all. Although we didnt do too well as a team we had a fantastic time.

The Guiness and Jager went down well and we will be back next year.

Would like to say a massive thank you to the staff at Stoke, in particular Katie who did a fantastic job running the cardroom under some pretty crazy pressure, and a huge number of players (much more than they"d ordinarily cater for).

I"d also like to thank Paulie D. and Maggie Holt for their updates. And for Dave Battersby for providing some pretty invaluable IT support! And to Leigh Wiltshire for an extremely useful set of spreadsheets required to run the events - the maths that goes into providing running min/max scores means this was no mean feat!

Until next time, goodnight and godbless.

Stay classy Stoke.

Rob Hallworth

Great event and thanks to all those at APAT for working so hard on this and of course Katy and her staff at Genting Stoke. 1st visit there for me and I liked the venue a lot.

Looking forward to next year already, when maybe the "Midlands Poker Forum" can get into the medals.

WP to all the winners and thanks very much to all those organising and updating over the weekend.

A massive well done to everyone involved in yet another superb weekend.
I have to say that table 23 was the place to be, with Duffy and the world"s most useless waitress.
Over 3 hours it took to get my burger delivered to the table and it turned out to be crispy tempura prawns instead. The waitress then spent five minutes arguing with me about it! At least that was better than her response to my query about when the kitchen opened, which was a shrug if the shoulders and walk away. Lol
She turned up at one point with a pint, but nobody claimed it, so she looked around surreptitiously and put it down on a table, then just walked off hoping nobody had seen.
The look on duffys face when she asked for a beer and the waitress just said no and tried to walk away. Lol

Oh, and I can"t seem to find any pics?
I also wouldn"t recommend asking for a lager top....
Anyway, it was great fun and I"ll be back next year.  

[dukestreetpoker]

All the Duke Street Poker Team had a top weekend.. Thanx to all the people involved for putting together such a fantastic weekend. Also would like to add that all the other teams we talked/played with were some of the nicest people you could hope to meet.

[sleeves]

Frome Poker Group would like to say a big thank you for a cracking weekend, Well done to Tom Matt and the rest of the Apat team for another great event... Congrats to BlackBelt Poker on 1st and The Hendonmob for 2nd

Cheers all
Team FPG

[nosey-p]

Yorkshire Poker Club would like to congratulate all the winners, team and individuals. Big thanks to Tom, Matt and the rest of the team. Although we hand some part time deals, they all did well and joind in with the bannter.

YPC may have come last but we was also last to leeve the bar, all we need to do now is learn how to play poker.

Hope to be invited back next year

Stoke gets my vote for next year (unless you can arrange it to be in YORKSHIRE  )

[waltypies]

Huge congrats to all the winners.  Nice one Rob for winning the indivdual prize as well.  Well deserved IMO.

The Genting in Stoke is a great venue its just a shame they could not put an event on the Sunday but Katy and her team did what they can and any casino that will supply me with a few free drinks is a good one (thin brag)!

Also a thank you to the APAT staff who did all the running about getting all the updates etc together along with the points.

[Matt D]

Just got back to Bristol - shattered. Would like to reiterate what those have said above. Was a fantastic weekend - my favourite event of the year, APAT or otherwise. Can"t wait until the next

Thanks to everyone who put a team in, and hope to see you all there next time.

Unlucky to Ben Walton for not quite making the double, and also to Nick Mazur who came within a hair of achieving a 2-time victory.

Congrats again to all the winners! :-) Look out for some media coverage of your exploits - coming soon from all the usual sources. We"ll post some links up as they are published
