Title: Private MTT game - tonight!
Post by: Matt D on April 06, 2014, 13:30:43 PM
Download the APAT Coral software from here: http://www.apat.com/online

I"ve set up a few Private MTT games for our members, to hopefully get a fun, regular, game going.

The times/dates I"ve set up so far are:
Sunday 6th April @ 8pm.
Wednesday 9th April @ 8pm.
Sunday 13th April @ 8pm.

All are standard NL hold"em, £10+1 buy-in, 3000 starting stack, and 10 minute levels. The games are listed under Coral Exclusive > APAT as "APAT Private MTT".

Password for all: apatmemb

To start things with a bang tonight, the first person to reply to this thread confirming they will play, I"ll stick a £10 bounty on :) One from LPPL forum, one from APAT forum, so 2 bounties in total. If you"re skillful (lucky) enough to knock out both bounties, I"ll increase the payment to £100! :)

So, roll up, roll up! Who"s going to brave enough to take on the challenge? :D

Update:
LPPL Bounty: IAMTHEPAXO
APAT Bounty: 5UGARFREEE

Asa "paymydebtplease" McGrath is the reigning APAT Private MTT champ.

Asa, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to play as bounty in Weds night"s game. Let me know :) (if you can"t make it, but can make next Sunday, I"ll make you the bounty then instead).

Any demand out there for PLO or PLO8 MTT? I see NLHE had small field so probably only get a one table going but thought I"d ask anyway! :D

For sure.

The plan is to run 3 Hold'em MTTs to get the ball rolling, let people know they are taking place, and stick in some added value in the form of bounties to try and get people playing.

Then, in future, keep a standard MTT one (or two) nights of the week, with the 3rd night alternating between a series of different games. Shootouts, heads-up challenges, PLO / PLO8, maybe even the occassional cheap stud game.

The option also exists to dedicate one night to hold"em, one to PLO/PLO8 (perhaps alternate each week?), and one to a different/fun form of the game.

Feedback is very welcome! :)

Once WCOAP is out the way, I"ll set up a weekly Omahahaaa game. How"s Weds night?

Starting 8pm Weds 30th April with Omaha, then Weds 7th May with Omaha hi/lo. Back to vanilla omaha the week after (14th May) and so on.

I"d also definitely play.

Brilliant yes!!

Hows about sometime in the future having a mixed game league run a little like the "Bunch of Fives"..

Dunno what games Coral can run on software? But would be fun maybe and a chance to hone our mixed game skills :)

Maybe run it over 10 weeks and keep back a % of prize pool and the winner/s depending on amount get a GPS seat or UKIPT etc seat, and 2nd gets 15% action 3rd 10% ?

Hi Carl, I like the idea. Some kind of Mixed Game Decathlon (or similar - will have a look at how many different types of games can be set up on Coral). One thing that doesn"t work so well is keeping back a % of the prizepool. There"s no easy way to do this on iPoker unfortunately.
