UK Team Championship TEAMS (Blackpool March 2017)
« on: November 25, 2016, 17:10:35 PM »


Year after year it"s never a case of picking the lucky teams, but moreso our own disappointment for those we unfortunately have to leave out of the UK Team Championship, and so to those who have not made it this year, please understand we are restricted to a maximum number and therefore cannot accommodate everyone and we hope you will continue to apply in future years.

The following teams will compete in the UK Team Championship in Grosvenor Casino, Blackpool over 2 days Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th March 2017:

Ace High Poker Group
Angies Room
APAT Diamonds & Rust
APAT Li"l Angels
AWOP
BCPC
blondepoker
Blue Blood
Bluff Europe Magazine
Chezger
Coldstream Poker
Degens Poker Tour
Duke Street Poker Den
East Herts Poker League
Essex Home Game
Frome Poker Group
Geordie Poker
Hetton Mob
Hitsquad Ice Tigers
JoeBeevers.com
Kracked Kings
LBPN
Live Pub Poker League
London Poker Meetup
Low Moor Club
Midlands Poker Forum
Punters Lounge
Raven Poker
Scot Squad
Sutton Poker
Team Gotham
Team On Team Poker

We draw your attention to the following:

The tournament will be run as an MTT with teams of 8 players each competing for both a team and an individual prize pool, paid out on a 50/50 basis to the top 3 teams and the top placed Individuals.

The buyin is £75+£7 per player and is to be paid in advance via a Grosvenor Poker Online Holding Tank by each individual - APAT Step 4 (online) Tokens (value £82) may be used.  Payment by individuals will be co-ordinated via myself and each Team Captain - so Team Captain"s, please take a keen interest in ensuring that each of your members have a Grosvenor Poker account (download via http://www.apat.com/grosvenor-poker/) and that you know their table/screen nickname so you (we) can identify them in the Online Holding Tank.  The Grosvenor Poker Online Holding Tank will be available ASAP and Team Captains will all be advised when it is live in the lobby.

The top 120 players in the MTT will score points for their team with 1st = 120 pts down to 120th = 1 pt.

Teams are to wear their own matching colour team shirts for both days of the event - if desired, EMBROIDERED POLO SHIRTS OR T-SHIRTS are available from APAT at a subsidised cost of £15 per shirt (reduced from £18) and in addition to the APAT logo and UK Team Championship event wording embroidered onto the shirt breast, can be branded with the Team Name plus player name or nickname (other wording or team logo embroidery is also possible but will cost more depending on requirements) - to order send a PM to myself via HERE or by email direct to tombrady [at] hotmail.co.uk or via Facebook Messenger HERE.  Shirts ordered via APAT will be available from the Friday night in the casino.

On the day, teams will be required to have a team photo taken PRIOR to the event starting - therefore please arrive by 1:30pm latest to allow the timely completion of this and not hold up the event starting because you"re too late!

The event has on occasion previously suffered from "team last minute dropouts", and therefore, as we did previously, we will again maintain a team reserve list.  All individual team members need to pay the entry fee of £82 via Grosvenor Poker in advance by 12:00 noon on Friday 3rd Feb 2017.  Any team failing to meet the buyin deadline for all 8 members will have their entry offered to teams on the reserve list.  Any team that pays the full buyins and has a last minute need to drop out will have their entry offered to the next team on the reserve list and whichever team takes up this option will have their buyins used to reimburse the team (via APAT) that had to drop out.

Team Captains need to inform APAT of their team members" names by Friday 3rd Feb 2017, either by sending a PM to myself via HERE or by email direct to tombrady [at] hotmail.co.uk or via Facebook Messenger HERE.  A full list of all team  members will be published to the APAT Forum thereafter, along with the table/seat draw.

The event structure can be found HERE.  

APAT Player Of The Year Leaderboard Ranking Points will be awarded for this event.

If you have any questions about the event, feel free to post on this thread or don"t hesitate to contact me personally by PM via HERE or by email direct to tombrady [at] hotmail.co.uk or via Facebook Messenger HERE.

Very disappointed that the Edgworth Cricket Club team are unable to attempt a repeat of their win the last time the team tournament was in Blackpool.  The lads were well up for this and will be gutted.   :"(  I hope everyone attending has a good weekend.
