[TheWagoon]

Anyway, is the Blackpool event restricted to players in the Pub Poker Thing? Also, how will the London "Pro-Am" Event work?

also wondering about these!

The Online Championships will have the standard registration fee attached.

Details of the Pub Poker Championship and the APAT Masters Pro-Am will be announced closer to those events taking place.

Are there any further details of the pub poker championship in May?  I am the North East rep for Poker in the Pub, and also run a venue which plays in Poker in the Pub and would be really interested in finding out more.

Hi Alisdair,

I will be starting a thread on the forum to allow teams to express an interest and we will forward the event briefing pack directly to them when it is finalised.

Cheers,

Des.

Des, Leigh and anyone else involved, 10 out of 10 for Season 5.
Already have 2 minibuses full for DTD in August.
Pub poker - blackpool - apat - are the perfect treble IMO. Really looking forward to the details of this game as it has the possiblility to be the best game of the year

I don"t think there were any, but I can"t complain about reg fees when there"s value added in the form of extra seats. No reg fees are a nice extra but not money well spent from a marketing point-of-view (IMO). No-one says "great no reg fees I"m definitely playing this tourney". But they do say that about extra value added (seats, added money).

I know last year we had both which I thought was unnecessarily generous, so I can"t blame 888 for trying to make a bit of their sponsorship costs back.

Couldn"t have put it better myself.

Has any thougth been given to the buy-in? Is it likely to remain at the dollar equivalent of £75?

Nothing finalised yet on that question.  Although I think a number of players will be heading over from the UK, the tournament will be filled by a lot of locals (and I guess tourists).  APAT is all about great value events with affordable buy-ins, so I"d be surprised if it fluctuated much from the £75 mark.

I understand the logic behind this, and Id say a lot of people will be going for a holiday...but I think if the buy-in is pushed up slightly then it will be easier for people to cover expenses.  Its tough spending so much getting there, and having fun when you are there, and have to shoot at 1 place to cover costs.

I don"t think anybody should be aiming to cover their expenses by cashing, do you?
