London, April 14th, 2008 - The APAT Poker Association & Tour have announced a strategic partnership with Dusk Till Dawn; Europe"s premier cardroom, to provide live poker training for APAT members.

Under the tutorship of professional player Paul Jackson, each APAT Academy live day will address the theory of multi table tournaments in early, middle and late stages, player position, assessing player holdings and bankroll management, while Late Night Poker legend Simon Trumper will lecture on player psychology and tells.  Live training days will also touch on sit "n" go strategy, cash game selection and limits.

A feature of APAT Academy live training days will be the addition of a guest professional who will offer an insight into the way they play the game.  Attendees of the first three APAT Academy live days will have the opportunity to sit with the William Hill sponsored, European Poker Tour and multi Grosvenor UK Poker Tour Champion, Julian Thew.

APAT Academy live days will be held at Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham.  Each event will start at 1.30pm and last for 6 hours, enabling attendees to enter the evening tournament at Dusk Till Dawn.  The cost of a training day is £99 per player, which does not include entry to the evening tournament.  

The first three live days are scheduled as follows, with the first event going on sale from www.apat.com on Thursday May 8th at 9pm sharp.

May 31st.
