Just wondering, does anyone know how many runners there will be for this event.

[MintTrav]

Yeah, I was wondering that too. Des, do you have more information on this event? There have been half-a-dozen satellites, with one seat each. I have seen a few people mentioning buying-in directly, but not that many. I might buy in if I knew more about it. Are you expecting many runners? What would we playing for? How many pros & who? Hellmuth should be finished at the Empire by then. I know you may not have exact answers but could you fill us in a bit on what you are expecting?

[Chipaccrual]

I can"t answer the questions on number of runners, but I know Des was hoping early exits from the London Leg of the EPT will increase numbers, so exact numbers might not be known until the day.


The APAT Masters pro-am will be played at the G Casino in Luton, on October 4th & 5th, with play starting at 2.30pm on both days.

This is the first APAT event open to both amateur and professional players and will feature a £300 buy in, with no registration fee, and added value in the shape of an expenses paid entry to the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour Grand Final worth around $8,000.  There will also be a free buffet on day one and for the finalists on day two.

Players will start the event with 10,000 chips on a 40 minute clock.


Usual APAT structure, with great value of no fee and an $8000 added prize.

How many entrants so far?

How many entrants so far?

Only Des can answer that, I don"t know.  More than 5 less than 200  

[MintTrav]

Well if its less than 200 I won"t bother - lol.

I"m sure the event will be great as always Leigh.

[Jordania]

I entered myself (Lynne) and other half Pete yesterday can anyone confirm if we did get a seat as I dont want to book hotel then have to cancel.

If the so called "Pros" (especially those at the Vic) get to hear about this with no reg fee plus the added package....I"m sure a fair few will be up for it.

I"d say we are looking at a min 40....hopefully nearer double that.

Is BlueSQ running a book on this event, or will that not be practical with the expected late entries?
