Title: Northern Ireland Official Team Thread - ECOAP @ DTD
Post by: Marty719 on May 21, 2012, 15:16:39 PM
Firstly I would like to say a big thanks to Des and the rest of the APAT team for this opportunity.  I have been lucky enough to represent Northern Ireland the past 2 years, and it"s safe to say that no event can compare in terms of atmosphere and general craic.  Very excited to get back to DTD this year, and hopeful we can build a great team.

At this stage, I would welcome applications to be part of the team.  Due to having to arrange flights/accomodation, I will be looking to name the team on 1st June, so all applications would have to be in by 31st May.  I would ask that those interested in playing send me a PM, and provide information about playing history, and prefered formats.  The team event itself will constitute of NLH sngs, PLO sngs, HU NLH sngs, an a final mtt, so some brief information about your playing history in these formats would be much appreciated.

I will make a point of getting back to everyone who applies.  We managed a bronze 2 years ago, and I believe we have the potential to reach a few steps above that.  I look forward to moving forward with this.

Good luck everyone.  Talk soon.

Marty

Excited to be part of it and realllllyyyyy looking forward to DTD and Nottingham already.

Only problem :( - with No.1 son now living/working in Manchester wife and No.1 daughter have jumped at the chance of a free trip to Nottingham and Son also joining us in hotel.   the price of a poker pass out goes up n up!

BeGood to catch up with faces again, see a few of u up at the bar, depends if I get any pocket money now :( - chuffed to be part of it
