Auckland:  Champion after four final tablesThe APAT Welsh Amateur Poker Championships held at the Grosvenor Casino Cardiff was the second event of APAT’s third season, once again sponsored by Blue Square. Seats for the 160 player strong event sold out within minutes, confirming APAT’s popularity and highlighting the attraction of these events to a wide range of poker players.

Including alternates, 162 runners took part generating a prize pool of £12,150 and £3,200 to the winner. Included amongst the runners were last year’s winner Tim Magnus and Steve Redfern, winner of the UK Championships in Walsall that began Season Three.

Unlucky Dewi James was the first player to exit, on the second hand, when he flopped trip two’s. Unfortunately Michael Gale had flopped trip tens and turned quads. Meanwhile James Edwards limped with a pair of sevens and was rewarded when he flopped quads, to be paid with a full double-up when Alan Armitage turned the nut flush. By the dinner break previous event winner Steve Redfern was established as the chip leader, helped by beating Darren Shallis’ Aces with pocket Queens, rivering a straight, and busting Gerard Smyth’s Aces with Queen-Jack suited to knock him out.
