Captain's Thread
nosey-p:
With us now playing on PS and we have allot of new players can I suggest that you get to know the poker ID"s of your team mates.( I put it in the players notes that they are a Y&H player) I will be putting up a thread each week with who is playing that week. Can I ask you to post if you are playing, (this will help me). If you are at a table with a TEAM mate but you think that they don"t know you, tell them you are on the same TEAM

I plan on colour coding team mates till I learn everyone"s ID

The first game of the league is this Sunday the 11th at 7.00 with a 1 hour late registration. $10+$1 on PokeStars, you can find it under Tournaments/Private/APAT password apatmember
At the moment we have 36 registered players on the forum which is great. If we can get 20 or more to play each week then I think we have a big chance of winning this. Knowing some of you and after talking to some of the new members, I think the quality we have will be better than the quantity of the other teams.
I have started a thread (week 1) where I shall try to keep you up to date with what"s happening in the game but it"s there for you to post in, any bad beat stories, who knocked you out and general chit chat.
I started a thread about a "last longer" but they was not allot of interest in it so I won"t be running it but I will still be doing it as a best player competition, no prizes just for fun to see who is the best Y&H player (I may buy you a pint). I will add the two leagues together to find the season 6 best player.
That"s it for now, good luck to you all and lets show them how good Yorkshire & Humberside players are.

So that"s week 1 done and dusted. We had 29 out of a possible 43 which is great, if we have that kind of turnout each week we will be competitive for the rest of the season. But that does not mean we don"t won"t any more players, we do, so keep spreading the word about this league, the more we have the better chance we have.
Congratulations to Paul, Dean and James who all finished in the points, if it wasn"t for some bad beats towards the end, the outcome would have been allot different. With 50 players left we had 5 players in the top 27.
You can now register for week 2, you can find the tournament:

I will put up a week2 thread, can you please post on there if you are playing, with the amount of players I found it difficult to keep up with who"s playing and chip counts and exits, (you will be helping me out). I tried my best this week but I took my eye of my own game so next week I won"t be updating as much until I"m out but you can post on how you are doing.

There has been a great deal of discussion on the structure; particularly on the Captains board, following last weekend"s opening match in the National Online League.
As a result APAT and the Captains have agreed to test a slightly reduced structure for match 2. This will consist of 4,000 starting chips and 12 minute blinds - a structure which is still deeper than PokerStars own deep stack structure. These changes should see the final table completing around 12.30am.
We look forward to seeing you all ahead of match 2 and as always, we will listen to your feedback following that match also - but hope the changes we"ve made will allow an even greater number of players to enjoy the PokerStars.com National Online League.

Just so you know I was in favour of this. APAT are always listening to its members and will change things if the majority asks for it. They as been some resistance to the change but overall I think this is a good move for the majority. It had to be made now before players stopped playing due to the late finish plus it makes it easier to rail your teammates after all it is a team game. If things change in the future "I"m sure that APAT will listen
