APAT goes live
Feeling confident after my start to the season and now having the finance to enter the first APAT live tournament which was at Broadway, Birmingham. But how do you enter? Well it was done by a ballot, but I am ranked number one, I have played all the on-line games surely I will get a seat, won't I? NO I did not get one but I am ranked number one I have played all the on-line games surely they will make an a acceptation won't they, "NO" came back the answer from Des (what a nice man)
Talking point
Now not being allowed to play and defend my lead was disappointing for me which was made more frustrating when I read the points was double in the live tournaments. So some won playing in their first game and finish in the top 8 will overtake me in the rankings. "This cannot be fair" went the e-mail "tough" the reply came back (that Des, what a nice man)
Your view 1
What is the bigger achievement?
Finishing 2nd and 6th in two on-line games with fields of over 200, in which everybody is allowed to enter or finishing on the FT of a field of 130 where only the lucky can play? Is it fair to have a championship where you are not allowed to play? (There were no qualifiers yet)
Now I know the argument is "It's a bigger buy-in, it's a live game, it's over two days" but which is the biggest achievement? Remember at this point I have never played live so my only experience of poker is on the computer.
Your view 2
Is on-line the same game as live? It's the same rules but is it the same game? Is there more skill playing live?
Over to you
Help wanted, how do you play AJo? Pleas PM Sir Percival with your answers
APAT:
It"s not even an argument :D it takes two days of head to head grind to get to an APAT live final table, while you can play in your boxers, with your feet up, online.

i was planning on playing at the irish national in my boxers with my feet up, is that not appropriate :o
