Fri 16 May 8pm - Season 8 Announcement

[IrishTom]

Ladies and Gents, I"m sure it"s very frustrating for you having to wait for news of this - but, in the belief that I"m sure you would want as much confirmed detail as possible, I can assure you that 95% of everything that needs to be confirmed beforehand has been done, and, whether the other 5% can get confirmed by Fri or not, we will be releasing the Season 8 details at 8pm this Friday.

Dates, venues and events are 99% confirmed, it is just a few "other things" that don"t necessarily need to be out in the open that need to be addressed so we can be happy with our final decisions before advising you with as much confirmed detail as we can - the work will continue behind the scenes this week and, come Fri 8pm, whatever we have will be released even if we have to add "TBC" to some details.

Des have a word, this isn"t how Apat do things?

In all seriousness can"t wait

Tom's being working on this for months...months, I tell you and from what I know (but can"t tell yet) it"s pretty feckin" awesome.

There will be something in there for everyone, including some long requested locations and some surprises too.

It"s gonna rock some worlds.

Can we please bring back the Fastest Finger?

Not been the same Since TBF

I don"t see that coming back TBH....what we have now, although, admittedly, imperfect is a much more flexible option for the majority of players and APAT is all about spreading the love.

At least that"s what Bilbo Duffy tells me.

[Chipaccrual]

My wish list of venues would be (in no particular order)

Walsall, Blackpool, Cardiff, Galway, Newcastle, Vegas, Glasgow, Brighton, Tallinn, DTD

In the words of Paulie, that would be pretty feckin" awesome


Fingers crossed for Friday

Replace Blackpool with Manchester and Newcastle with Sheffield and I agree.

Happy to go with Sheffield, but if not Blackpool, then surely the Aquarium would be the second choice in the North West

Both give a nice spread across the country, though I"ve never been to Blackpool.
But but but Walsall?!!!? ? Walsall?*#%&8!!!! Didn"t APAT have its worst ever experience there? Happy to be doing something else that weekend if it"s there again.

The G in Walsall has, I understand, been completely revamped and has new cardroom management since APAT were there all those years ago*.

*Won my first medal there, I did

However, you should not read anything into the above.

Based on the guesses so far some people are going to be pleased and some disappointed.

Par for the course I suppose...however, I like it.

I thought we agreed never to go to the BCPC...not quite the same thing.

Fingers crossed for Friday

Lose Cardiff as unless things have changed they just don"t have a casino that can hold the event (if that has changed fine leave it there). Replace with Bristol. Remove Vegas, replace with ECOAP at Stratford or Manchester.

Apart from that like it a lot

[MintTrav]

Yeah Stratford. How did I miss that? Gotta have Stratford. Drop DTD.
