APAT PLAYER IN POKER MILLION FINAL !!
« on: December 02, 2010, 10:19:37 AM »
Just heard from my mate GARY PENIKET, who played Coventry on Saturday, that he has won a seat in the live Final of POKER MILLION on Friday December 10th on Sky Sports.
 Gary will be the only amateur playing and I am sure that you will all be rooting for him.
 I have been trying to get him to the BCPC for 2 years but he thinks he isn"t good enough......

Would be great to see him in an APAT shirt if he was inclined.  Can you ask him whether he would be interested?

Wow, that"s huge. I"ve been watching the series all the way through. I"m sure he"ll love playing with Antonius, Hansen etc.

Imagine taking it down. Sweet.

Congratulations Gary - A fantastic opportunity.

I agree with Des (that was quick BTW!) would be awesome to see him in APAT gear.

Considering his biggest cash is the £250 at the team championship, this is massive.

Good Luck Gary, anybody can win on the day TID

Yeah, either way fantastic achievement Gary and I will drop in to say hello on the night.  We are relocating the Sky Poker studio next week and it will now be about 6 feet across the hall from the Sky Sports News studio.

It"s more to do with the fighting you arrange afterwards I"m not so keen on Bri, certainly not
cos of you BCPC donks :P (see you all in Bolton ;) BOING BOING!)

I"ve had a couple of £1000+ wins that aren"t linked to THMF database(honest guv ;D), but
effectively a sit&go buy-in  at $125,000 .. LOL, now thats pretty big.

I had previously lost twice heads-up for Late Night Poker, so a third runners-up spot for sweet f.a
would have finished me off.. Cheers for the congrats everyone.

p.s Is Georgie Thompson working next Friday Des? ;)

Awesome stuff, well done Gary!

Have you locked up any cash? All the other seats have $90K for their heat wins. Plus do you get a table in the family & friends area. I can see a table full of bright green shirted reprobates hob nobbing with the poker jet set!!!
