Sorry did I not make myself clear  :)

PHIL_TC:
I managed to do my whole stack in 15 mins at Cardiff one season.

a) Partly down to flopping a straight and wondering why some bloke was going bananas... then him hitting the higher straight on the turn haha..  genius.
b) Partly down to the champagne / beers consumed on the flight down.
c) Partly down to looking like an idiot in a bright yellow hoodie.

Des got a photo of me leaving my seat. This was back in the day when people clapped. I told everyone not to and to pretend I was just disappearing to the loo for a long time.

So its then a choice of £75 at the bar having a good time and telling everyone I"m a donkey or new option b of reentering.

I vote option a every day of the week. Even when in a foreign country. Banter is what its all about for me x

Fatcatstu:
Spain APAT. I manage to lose 3/4 of my stack on the first hand of the day with 4 high :) Was out sshortly later.

Would i have re entered if i had the chance? Nope. I would pick going to the bat and having a whale of a time with Craig MacInnes, my brother and everyone else who was busting around me :D It was top banter, which for me is what APAT weekends are about now.

i love playing poker and want to do well, but if it doesnt go well, i want to spend some time with the quality people that go down who i now call good friends.

The re entry idea WOULD play into the hands of the maniacs in the field (cant believe i have been put into that group, i am a nit!!) So i think it would have to be a no from me.

mporter123:
A definite no for me.

I would feel like I would need to be rolled for two bullets to play optimally. This would mean I would play less APAT events.

HERBIEHACKIT:
for me a freeze out is a freeze out. you pay your money and take your chances. i think allowing one re entry would detract from the championships. a freeze out makes for better play as players are less likely to commit to an all in. eg in ireland i had pr 10"s I raised and got a caller. the flop was 6 high. i bet and was re-raised, i called, the turn was an ace. now i am up against a loose player and he may well of played a rag ace and hold 2 pr are he may have the ace with a high kicker, so i check, he moves all in for his last 11,000, i have him well covered and i believe i am probably in front. i am so tempted to make the call but it is a freeze out, then i remember the words of a very good player from newcastle, if in doubt get out and wait for a better spot. now if it had been a re-entry i snap call. all the big championships are freeze outs, why? it is a purer form of poker. A re-entry would favour the richer players and would also take away equal chances of winning. hence i believe a re-entry would detract from the apat championships and am against it..
