In addition we"ll have seat reservation. To stop people speed reserving everything in sight, there will be a charge on all events. £5 for the main event and £2 for each side event.

I think this was pretty much what I was hoping to see. Thanks Des.

Agree completely. I think a direct buy in with full payment up front should be made available for all events before reservations. Surely selling out an event with money up front is more desirable

^^^^^ +1^^^^^ surely have direct upfront payment available for say 14 days then go down the reservations route for those still undecided, there are lots of hardcore members who have fully committed 100% to the series..

Ditto this.
Those prepared to pay full whack, thereby taking a financial risk and making a commitment to APAT several months in advance shouldn"t be penalised with an additional reservation fee (in my humble opinion)

Agree with this and as I mentioned a bit earlier, we"re certainly going to have direct buy in options available online. The only concern we have at the moment is that this element hasn"t been finalised yet by Matt - so we"ll take stock over the weekend and let you know the approach on Monday. One thing I would say is that we want to be as fair about this as we can and are conscious of cutting any additional costs to a minimum, so let"s see where we are on Monday. We"ll try and keep the surprises to a minimum.

That"s excellent news. If the direct buy-in option is not ready on Monday, could you hold off on the reservations until it is?

We may very well don hard hats and do that.

Brilliant news and probably the only fair option.
ps Des I think you do have a right to vent your frustrations however due to your position/status within the company I feel it should not be done on a public forum with your customers all looking on
Paulie_D:
Does anyone know the rules of Ante Only NLHE?
Des:
Good guideline:

Paulie_D:
So, as I understand it...
All players will post the required ante each level of play.
No SB or BB
Pre-flop: Action will start with the player to the left of the dealer button. Players will act in turn having the option to fold or bring in for the minimum amount posted for each level or bet up to All-In. The remaining players in the hand will have the option to fold, call, or raise.
Post-flop: Action will start with the player to the left of the dealer button. Players will act in turn having the option to check, or bet the minimum bring-in up to and including all-in. The remaining players in the hand will have the option to fold, call, or raise.
....Interesting.
