Looking forward to it. Hopefully be able to clickfest my way to a seat tonight. At what point do we express a preference over what day 1 we want? I apologise if this has been answered already.

If anyone encounters unacceptable chat on an APAT table, please email details of what was said and by whom, through to customer@apat.com.  We can then get Blue Square to retrieve the chat logs.

A bit of banter is fine and normal, but if the chat is of a personal nature and you wouldn"t say it to someone"s face, then it shouldn"t be said at an APAT game. 


Des....by all means take a look. I (think) I was involved in the chat that BobFish was referring to and, frankly, I firmly believe that he is grossly overstating what went on.

I had my JJ cracked by A8 on a by x89T8 board and from memory, yes, the A8 hand selection was commented on (not by me other than to criticise my OWN play..IIRC) but rather by another player (toilet72?) at the table who was not involved in the hand.





I was on a table with this player a couple of weeks ago and from memory he/she does like to comment on others players playing ability.


Was that when he was railling and talking to Darren Sallis in league match?

He"d got knocked out (in fact first out) by me, he went all in after turn with A high. I called with top pair - Ks jack kicker and flush draw. He had A 8 (the hand he was criticising ironically).

He started to have a go at some muppet (me) who would"nt put down KJ (suited). He was not aware of the fact that I was also railling. So when I pointed out that he was always behind he threw another tiff.

However, I did not consider it "over nasty" - just a slightly overheated discussion about the theory of poker by someone who thought he had been hard done by.

I think the fact that he was first out did not help ;-)

Congtats to all those who qualified last night and over the previous 2 nights.

I finished  7th last night and bubbled having let myself get too short after getting AA cracked when well placed.

Hopefully can buy myself in later will have to see.

I believe, and this is only my opinion as I haven"t seen the screen shots in question that you will make the choice at the same time as entering your name before you get to the payment screen.

This would seem the obvious place.

If you look on the homepage now, you will see the link (not active).  Just keep refreshing at 9pm until it is active, then click away.

"3) APAT accepts payment by debit card only. Delta, Electron and Maestro are the payment card options. If you own a Visa debit card, then select the "Delta" option but do not put in a date in the "Valid From" field."

Great to tell this half an hour before when all banks are closed.  >:(

This has been mentioned numerous times on here over many months.
