BTW i think a super deepstacked cash game, that is streamed, is the best idea in a while.

Have just seen this whilst perusing old posts. Please make this happen!

There are no ranking points for this event, even though it is the hardest tournament of the whole year to win or go deep in (with the single exception of the WCOAP Main Event). Most APAT Main Events run with 120-150 players, whereas the Inter-Forum tournament always has a full 200 players and this time will have 240. Someone who final-tables this will get no points, when someone doing well in a tournament with half the players will get them. Even the International team events accrue rankings points for the top individual finishers.

I don"t know why there are no points for this event. I suspect it is to do with a perception of the event supposedly not being open to all players, but that is clearly not the case - anyone who wishes to play it can easily find a team. And, if someone didn"t find one beforehand, there are always several teams begging for any players to join them to replace dropouts in the week leading up to the event.

I cannot see why ranking points are not awarded for the second-largest and toughest APAT event of the year. The rankings thread states that "additional ranking events may be added during the season at APAT's discretion". Here"s hoping.

Hello all

I will be heading up the "Genting Southport" team at Stoke and look forward to seeing you all.

For anyone who doesn"t know me, bring earphones.

My team are as follows:

Caroline Cove

Andrea Marshall

Mark McVey

Igor Puskarskis

John Leonard

Craig Turner

James Aughton

Kevin Warrilow

Any one with a spare cook book on how to cook slow roast lamb shank, Caroline would appreciate the loan  

Once I"d picked off the charred bits it was.. er ... yep, still inedible.

Pics on FB if anyone thinks this is some dodgy rhyming slang in-joke.

Any more agreeing with John Murray and you"re off the team.

Can we please have confirmation that the Team Event in Stoke does have Individual Ranking points attached for the Top 18.

There was a post earlier in the year that stated it would, but as lots of things have changed from Season 7 announcements, id like to make sure.

Also, how will the points work now we have 40 more players involved??  Is it still Top 100 earn points?

Cheers in Advance.
