11 - HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT APAT?
Pokerplayer magazine
12 -WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT APAT TOURNAMENTS, STANDARD OF PLAY AND STRUCTURE?
Excellent. Love the way the tournaments are run- nice touches like round of applause for people who get knocked out and I was unfortunate to receive the first ever applause!!! Standard of play is top notch- yes there ar elots of inexperienced players but there"s some sharks in the water. Only amendment to structure would be the addition of the 150/300 level
13 - HAVE YOU PLAYED AT AN APAT LIVE EVENT AND IF SO, WHAT WAS MOST MEMORABLE ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE?
Aside from going out first in Birmingham it has to be Luton. Getting so deep and bubbling the final table was heartbreaking. I can honestly say I have never been so gutted when knocked out of a tourney. Winning the Walsall regional was nice too!

I play football although by my belly you can tell not lately- that is about to change! Other then that I have 3 kids and a wife to keep me busy!

Books- I like the harry potter series. Also John Grisham. Film- tough one. Enjoy action films like con air, the rock etc
