WCOAP 2017 - Discussion

[peripheraldecision]

Is there any chance of making the HORSE and 8 game deeper by 2k?

[IrishTom]

Quick question - if I enter a bunch of events, but then make Day 2 of one of them (wishful thinking!), can I get a refund on the event I can no longer play?

Excited! Train and hotel booked!

Hi Joe, we posted earlier on this thread HERE about being able to multi-table during WCOAP if you make Day 2 of an event...

But yes, if you prefer, we can withdraw you from an event if you have made a Day 2 that clashes...

Unfortunately not Adam, HORSE has already been moved to a later start time... but you realise the 8-Game is 50k?

I agree - should be 52k.

Happy to confirm the following available on the Monday and Tuesday during WCOAP:

Tuesday 11th April

FROM 9AM Cash Omaha/NLH/Mixed games

STT Satellites for APAT WCOAP High Roller

20:00 £50+£6+1 x optional R/A (1 re-entry permitted), 10,000 chips (2k early bird bonus), 25 min clock, £7,500 Gtd

-----

Mixed Cash:

£2/£2/£5 (£8 per hour session fee) and all games are pot limit.

Can cater for lower stakes (£1/£1 5% rake capped at £5) and higher if requested (£10) per hour session fee.

Games are:

Stud Padooki
Paduci
Omaha (High)
Omaha (Hi/Low)
Maltese Cross
Triple Draw
Super Stud
Irish
Scottish
Padooki
5 Card Draw Hi/Low
Matrix (Triple Board Hi Low Omaha)

Great stuff, although I am really keen to get a fixed limit game going. Any chance?

The difference for me and I imagine a number of people is that fixed limit will be in my price range, but pot limit won"t be.

much rather play a limit mixed game cash table say £2/£4 with max £4 rake? Could Casino run this or are dealer costs too high?

Was thinking the games from:

2-7 TD
Badugi
Razz
Stud
Stud 8
O8
A-5 TD

Plus other games more suited to Limit?

I really strongly agree with this.

To be honest I was hoping for a straight up HORSE rotation, or better yet, just OE! I love me some split pot games.

As we progress the fine tuning of the WCOAP, we recognise for WCOAP 2017, where we have a lot of multiple-day-events, that not being able to multi-table may restrict event choices and enjoyment throughout the week, and therefore for WCOAP 2017 players WILL be allowed to multi-table where they are involved in Day 2 of an event ONLY, with the exception of the Main Event Final Table.

Examples:

Nobody can multi-table any events on Saturday 8th (as there are no "Day 2" events that day) but if someone plays #1 (8-game) or #3 (6-max) and make Day 2 of the event being played on Sunday 9th, then they may play the #4 Main Event Day 1A at the same time.

If someone qualifies for #13 PLO Final Table on Sunday 16th, they can multi-table between the PLO and the Main Event Day 2.

No player who makes the Main Event Final Table on Monday 17 April can multi-table between that and the Heads Up nor the Crazy Pineapple.

hi, never multi tabled live before and have couple queries,
firstly can u only multi table with day2s and main event day1s or could I multi table day2 #3 6max   and #5 nlhe turbo then  day2 #11 highroller and #12 mix max and lastly day2 main even and #16 cash.
secondly is there a rule/etiquette in regards to min time spent at table i.e could I be playing in my day 2 then go and play other tourney for half hour then go back to my day 2   cheers

Been away from APAT for a while, just logged on to have a look at the WCOAP schedule.  Have always loved the fact APAT has looked after mixed game players by putting on stud, razz horse etc.  Like red simon have hoped one day to see O8 and Stud8 included!!

Have appreciated the fact these dying forms of the game get zero game time ANYWHERE in the UK apart from APAT.  That numbers playing are small, that the number of dealers that can deal the game are minimal but so dissapointed to see just a midweek Horse and no stud or razz.  When these games are not offered there is zero chance of attracting new players to them.  Worried also a midweek date will affect numbers as many that would play a weekend Horse will be working.  Low numbers would not help any chance of resurrecting Razz or Stud in future years

Outside of America this is our only chance to play these games live. 

Not a fan of OFC or pineapple, appreciate many are.  8 game tends to be dominated by hold em and plo unless blinds for these are moved back such as apparently on stars now and the WSOP

Resigned that this is the way of things, sadly may now not make the journey "up north" and keep the money for losing in vegas in june.  Is there anywhere that shows the Horse structure as i can only see starting stack of 8k and 30 mins blinds.

If I dont go for those that do have a great WCOAP

You"ll find the multi-tabling question answered here Arron http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php/topic,19740.msg251774.html#msg251774, and the only stipulation is that in no way will any game be "held up" due to someone multi-tabling... if you multi table you are free to play each/both tables as you wish...

[Bigfella42]

I"m sure it"s on here somewhere but can someone confirm the 8 games in the 8 game players championship and presumably apart from hold em nl and plo are all the rest limit games?
