Yes, we"ve still seats available for tomorrow. The game starts at midday with 3 hours late reg. I"d recommend registering from 11am onwards.

Little bit of information. Although the dress code on here says smart casual that does Nt include new open hem joggers...... just been turned away from casino     luckily I"ve been an optimist and  booked a b and b for tonight  10 mins away and packed a spare set of clothes in case I made it to day 2 lol.  Good luck to everyone in main event

I cannot make today, had booked via eventbrite.  If you need a seat my name is Paul Williams, not sure of the procedure for transferring name.

I was told they could when someone on my table asked and the dealer confirmed. Would be interesting to know if there were any re-entries?

No re-entries were allowed and none were ever planned.

Two players were found to have re-entered and were disqualified.  Obviously a mistake from the casino but both players knew the event was a freezeout so took their disqualification in the right spirit.

IM steaming. The guy who took my chips in 1b yesterday has been refused his seat in day 2 BECAUSE HE PLAYED DAY 1A AND 1B   AND  WHEN I JUST SPOKE TO HIM  HE SAID HE THOUGHT U WAS ALLOWED AND THAT HE WAS TALKING TO OUR FIRST DEALER (integer own language}  she knew he played day before.  WHICH DOES BRING ME ON  TO WHAT WAS MY ONLY CRITICISM OF THE EXPERIANCE TO MANY DEALERS SPEAKING IN OWN LANGUAGE TO PLAYERS. I know I should of complained but it was my first live apat event  and didn"t wanted annoy collateral   who as it turns outsourcing of been allowed play

A regrettable situation, so apologies for your experience from APAT Aaron. In seven years of running APAT we"ve never had this situation occur before and it goes without saying that we"re pretty upset about this right now.  It has put a blot (this and some dealer shortages in the Team event) on what was an otherwise very well ran event by the Aspers Stratford team. 

I hope it doesn"t put you off playing in future APAT events.
