I am sorry to hear that, unfortunately teamplay strategy does encourage softplay and even in non-team events players will announce their hand (Or in live situations do the "I am chewing a wasp" thing to let everyone know what they folded a completed hand)
My opinion of the games were at first, great to play, but were all about numbers and the sheer numbers of some teams put other teams/players off. (including myself)
I think that APAT should look at something different for next season, the concept was good, but for me it just didnt work, would rather play an individual game or a game based on a more wider area IE England Scotland Ireland Wales Rest of The World, with a handicapping system in place for results
Meh - had my say
