Here are answers to a few questions that are likely to come up :-

If you missed APAT's announcement about the new cardroom, have a read here

Buyin is only available through the new APAT cardroom that you can download by clicking the banner.



Buyin is in Euros, but payouts on the day at DTD will be in GBP.  An exchange rate will be fixed nearer the time, which will also provide us with a GBP buyin for any alternates on the day.

Satellite winners will automatically be entered into the target tournament.

Satellites will continue to run each week for upto 4 weeks, although APAT reserves the right to withdraw satellites should the holding tanks reach capacity or there is a lack of demand for satellites.

Players can win multiple satellite seats.  Additional seats will be paid out as Tournament Credits.

Players can buyin to the holding tank and then win a subsequent satellite.  They will be credited Tournament Credits.  If they unregister from the holding tank, they will get the cash back, and can then use the Tournament Credits to re-enter.

Holding tanks will close on Thursday 16th August at 9pm.  After that date, any players wishing to make amendments to registration need to utilise the APAT Seat Exchange Board

Holding tanks are capped at - Main Event (200), Stud (54), 6Max (108), PL Omaha (108).
