APAT European Online Championship

[APAT]

APAT are pleased to confirm details of the European Online Poker Championship, taking place at Blue Square from 8pm on August 1st.

The entry fee for the event is $50 + $5, and players entering will start with 10,000 chips and 12 minute blind levels. 

The winner of the event will receive a significant cash prize, National Title & Gold Medal and an entry to a £1,000 buy in Grosvenor UK Poker Tour main event.

The top three players will receive APAT National Medals and an option to enter the European Amateur Poker Championship at the G Casino in Luton on November 20th & 21st; where seats will almost certainly be amongst the hardest to acquire in Season Three, where their Online Championship Medals will be presented. 

Satellites to the Online Championship event will be available at Blue Square on Monday July 27th and Tuesday 28th at 8pm.  Monday"s satellite will be a $10 + $1 freezeout, while Tuesday"s will be a $5 + $0.50 rebuy.

The previous event in the Online Championship series; the Scottish Online Championship, was won by Alan "bigalhx3" Armitage.

Good luck to all participating players.

Looking forward to this one...

think BSQ may have pulled another special...... they have this tourney listed as 10k chips, but with first level as 10/20, and 12 minute blinds.

Not sure about the blinds - thought we usually had longer than 12 mins (the league games are 13!)........ but 10/20 as first level? 500 blinds?  could be in for a long one....

I think this has been the structure for the last few online tourneys. Will take about 6 hours to play out

I thought it started at 25/50 the last couple of times...

The more BBs the better though, at least I might last past the first level this time...

Last one I played started at 25/50. I think the intention was that they would follow the same structure as the live events - looks like this one has the standard iPoker MTT structure.

last one had 500BBs, think it has been that way for a while.
