Pub Poker Players Championship 2013

15% of the prize pool (including rebuys) seems a steep amount of rake.

Most comps add 10% to the buyin, where this is 17.5% roughly.

Is there a reason for this particular charge?

Or does anyone not want to answer this?

Sorry Rob, I"ve been on holiday for the past week and I guess I normally pick up this type of post.

LPPL works in a different way to APAT.  It actually has three employees, while APAT does not have any.  Mark is full time managing the LPPL pub relationships and events (and increasingly helping at APAT), as is Kim who runs the LPPL admin (issuing and chasing 200 invoices to pubs monthly amongst many other things) and Katrina who is the book-keeper.

LPPL have ran successfully with this type of cost structure over the past six years, but it is different to what APAT would typically offer of course.

Thanks Des

With APAT acquiring LPPL, I was very surprised that an event under the APAT banner would have such a charge and be self-deal.

However, this explains things. Thanks again

Anybody who does want to play this event - and a fair few APAT members have already entered (thanks guys and gals) - are encouraged to register for it ASAP.....time is running out and so are the places!!!

185 players in last nights comp. Looks like gala can fill the 200 capacity easily. Maybe Apat  here in future...

I actually registered for this in the early hours of this morning and made a payment and got confirmation details, does this guarantee me a seat?

Reg closed an hour ago (a little later than originally published) so anyone registered before that time is in. I"ve checked the list and you are indeed registered.

Great, thanks very much Matt!

Registration is now closed for all players for this Saturday"s 2013 Pub Poker Players Championship at the Gala Casino, Bristol.

Any players still wishing to play this event must now turn up on the day and buy in directly for £30 cash. You must still meet the eligibility requirements (see first post).

I"m running a £10 last longer for this, so if you would like to get involved then post up with your name or send me a msg or email (tfeilding@hotmail.com). I can accept stars xfer (ashhen), bank transfer or cash ahead of the game. Just so long as everything is squared up before the start of play. It is winner takes all, regardless of whether you cash or how many rebuys you make. I"ve opened this up to gambling network forum and Bristol Meetup too, as both groups will supply plenty of players.

And if you need to find me ahead of the game, then I am Tom Feilding. Someone like Suzanne or Matt Dale can point you in the right direction.

Go on then...im in

[Sillbags]

I"m in for the last longer Tom, will see you before the game
