Title: APAT Online 'Home Games'
Post by: RiverAsUsual on January 14, 2011, 11:56:56 AM

If you want to know more about these and want to be involved PM me here at APAT for details.

Open to tournament suggestions, mini-leagues etc

Please leave details as to which day/s would be best for you to play and we will try to accommodate the majority. The players giving the most possible playing days will (probably) get preference.

If you want to volunteer to be an administrator of "Home Games", please PM me, that would be great.

Any more ideas etc please discuss below...

APAT cannot support any initiative that drives members to play games at a site that does not sponsor the organisation John.  That is how we are able to deliver the agreements and value that we do.  Please keep that in mind here.

The opportunity to play poker with mates rather than with half the world is quite appealing, and the site in question has shown good innovation with this, in my opinion.  I wonder if the OnGame platform would support this, and if Betfair would consider developing it as an offering?

They already do guys. The Furness Friendly every Monday is populated almost entirely of APATers, and even though it is a tiny buy in, everyone has a great time. :)

played a heads up cash game with a mate the other day... i left table with 22 cents profit, but we"d payed 67 cents in rake over a 1/2 hour period???  will have to check the rake rates at these tables compared to the main ring.
