I"ve just tried to book at room at the Ricoh and they have two conferences on and all rooms are fully sold out already, so none of us APATers will be able to stay there on Saturday 30th.

This is not good news!!!


That"s not good.

Surely the casino would have thought to check that when in discussions with Tom ?

There are a number of other hotel options, but I know a lot of players liked being able to stagger to their rooms from the bar after a long day playing poker socialising ;)

Novotel (by Junction 3), usually the reserve hotel, also fully booked. Premier in by Junction 2 is £126 for 3 nights. Anybody have any better suggestions as that is quite a way away. Dayes Hotel which is also about a 10 min drive away is £150.


Rodders we have booked the Days Inn, triple room for 2 nights £86 all in.

I have just booked a room at the Ricoh for Saturday night, I guess they may well have released a couple which didn"t sell out for the conference.

There were 4 "executive double" rooms left at my time of booking. £90/night.

For anyone wanting to play the normal Friday night comp it starts at 7.30pm and is £20 +£5 Total Freezeout (No re-buys, re-entries or Add ons) the clock is 20 mins throughout and it"s 25k starting stack and 2.5k early reg bonus if in before the start.

It gets a bit of a shove fest in the later stages as you"d expect but there are no ante"s so you get a decent game for £20.

Friday just gone (22nd) it had 65 runners so I"d expect it to be quite busy with extra APAT runners to swell the numbers.

Cash tables are quite busy on a Friday they had 5 this week ranging from 25p/50p upwards to a very deep stacked big action £1/£1 game.

So with the added APAT cash game is should be very active on Friday night.

I"ll be in the pub ...either the Mount Pleasant near the Premier Inn...or perhaps, if the weather is nice.. The Greyhound Inn...I"ll drive.
