Good work guys - loads to take in.   I think I may go for the direct route rather than the regionals though.  But ahhhh no - international team poker - I hate it.   Its an individual game!!  Small price to pay though for all the other pros.  Well done APAT team - ps Id love to volunteer for a job!!  Reporter maybe.....let me know how to apply.   See you in Luton.

No two team members will play together in the International team event.  Each country will be made up of four "individuals" (probably all trying to let air out of Ironside"s tyres before the buffet).

I certainly wouldn"t be up for paying a fiver to watch over"t"net, I"d hope to be at the venue itself - railing, obviously, as my chances of making a final table are probably somewhere between slim and no chance !

Be good to be able to record, and watch at a later date the final table action, though.

50% of the seats by direct buy in - I"d hope for more like 90% but that doesn"t seem to be likely.

It"s pretty much what I was expecting (Blue Square sponsorship, regional qualifiers etc) though, plus a bit extra.

So despite their being some cost associated problems (not on the same scale as Ironsides at least) it"s a good improvement for season 2 - but still room for even more improvement in season 3. :)

Wow ,,, did you hear that then.... That was the sound of the penny dropping......

Looking forward to it all....

A couple of questions regarding the cost of the different levels of membership and the positions available but I will leave that till the dust has settled.

I like the thought of the differing events. The inter forum challenge.....The international challenge, and the pro-am.....

She certainly has a better chance than me, especially if you continue to offload chips to her !  ;D

Des, I know its early stages but will the APAT forum have a team in this, if so my colours are well and truly nailed to that post.  Bring on the blondes..... You know what they say about blondes (only joking).....
