APAT World Championship of Amateur Poker (27th - 30th Aug)

So let me get this right.....the lower the ID from Paypoint.net governs if you obtain the seat? So mine xxx486 is likely to mean I haven"t made it? Or does it work from the time you click the "register" link on the APAT site and submit your name?

Only ask because I tripped up on my card number the first time which cost me a few seconds, but this would seem a barmy way of doing it. APAT will know at what time the form was submitted with the playername and preferred date, so the time it takes to fill in a payment form should really be immaterial...anything else is just a stupid way to do it.

Anyway, fingers crossed I guess. One other thing - despite APAT saying its just pre-authorising, the email confirmation clearly thanks me for my "payment" and gives me a transaction ID, which seemed odd

I could be in trouble - oh crumbs!!!

[APAT]

Still some seats left so well done everyone to this point, you"re all in.

A lot of runners have gone for Friday as their starting day so hopefully most players will be allocated their choice.  We will do our best to print a list of exceptions ahead of the Omaha clickfest tomorrow evening.

[Barnfather]

Well thats a relief!

Its the HORSE clickfest I"d like to crack, although with only 2.3 places available it could be a challenge!

Don"t think the trans ID is any indication as other payments through the same provider would be in the middle of all ours

Big time suck site wont accept payment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Same here !

[HuckNall]

still seats available!

[APAT]

Where the site has turned down your payments, I will work out some alternative payment method with you.  I know exactly when you tried to purchase and will retain your name on the player list in that order.

Yippee - this is the first time I"ve actually succeeded with the clickfest direct, and that"s because I went to the trouble of getting a different debit card (the lengths some addicts will go to get an APAT seat!!) A bit of stress when I forgot my new verification code but got thru after trying 4 of my regular passwords. Good lcuk to all who still have to click for this and other events. Thanks, Des, for letting us know we"re in
