APAT WCOAP Main Event: Day2 Live Update

[HaworthBantam]

Congratulations on Bronze Wayne - very well played.

Really pleased for you but share your disappointment at not getting Gold. I"ve been there mate and can tell you that you should be proud of the Bronze, a great achievement, particularly in that event.

Well done to all three of you guys. I played with all of you at some stage in the tournament, and you were all quite tough! Everytime I reraised Steve he would shove in on me and I would sigh and fold. He seems to raise a lot but always have the goods when someone puts the pressure on.

And Ben of course is immense. I"m glad he won because I feel like it was our massive hand (where I flopped a boat and he flopped quads on J99 8 7 and we got it in on the river) that gave him the chip lead and propelled him to the top. Very well played though, all of you.

Not sure why I am still up but I am so here goes.

A bad few days for me from a poker perspective but that"s all down to my own poor play and James Edward"s luck....

But a great few days in general, with so many people to credit, APAT fantastic, DTD fantastic, Dealers fantastic, Staff fantastic, Massuers fantastic (ty betfair).

Special mentions to Tighty, Leigh & Des - the day I discovered APAT must go down as one of the best discoveries I"ve ever made.

I also met so many people, some of whom are already friends, but a lot I was meeting for the first time in many cases have "met" online so if I forget to mention anyone I apologise

Fistly the usual suspects: My roommates Phil (another deep run, well played sir) and Chris. Then Ian (great result mate), Don L, Don R, Big Ger, Dawn, Steve (good for morale), Brian (fishy balls??  ), Stuart, John (nice triple barrel  ), Paul, Rudders (river rat) James, Mary & Joe

Then it was great to meet so many online teammates and adversaries in the flesh for the first time; Luton Teammates Warren, Richard, SuzyP (sorry about the 3-betting!!), Carl, Alan & Stuart also some players I have "known" or known of for some time but not got to meet before including Jack, Suzanne, Dan, Dylan, Little Ger, Dave, SharpLea & Julie -probably forgotten a few but I can blame the alcohol.

Congratulations also to all of the winners and medalists, final tablers etc.

Note 1 to self - You live 1 hour from DTD. Must visit more often
Note 2 to self - Do not drink so much
Note 3 to self - If Note 2 is ignored do not play cash

APAT ftw

Once again a brilliantly organised event, many thanks to APAT for this. Thanks to DTD for hosting the event, fantastic card room, must go more, only 45mins door to door.

Another thanks to Betfair for the sponsorship and many congrats to the final 3 players!!

Thank you to APAT again for such a great 5 days (3 days for me) all the work you put in is well appreciated.

To DTD (what a great place to play poker)

To Betfair for the sponsorship  

Thanks to all the people railing me at DTD and on the forum and the texts  

Congratulations to Ben Young, easily the class act at the final table and to Steve Roderick.

I will update my blog in the next week when I have caught up with some sleep. I will go through some hands and my thinking behind the decisions I made.      

[RicayBoy]

My first APAT live event and really enjoyed it. Many congratulations to the winner(s).

I would like to thank all the APAT organisers and DTD people whose hard work made it such a great event and also thanks to Betfair for their sponsorship.

I"ll try and get to Luton to see if I can improve on 56th.

Once again very well done to the winners.
