APAT World Championship Of Amateur Poker (WCOAP)

(1/20) > >>

APAT:
The APAT Online Series at PokerStars will conclude with the five event, World Championship Of Amateur Poker festival. 

The events are scheduled as follows:-

Saturday, August 4th, 8pm BST / 3pm ET
APAT WCOAP - Pot Limit Omaha Championship
2,500 Chips
$20 + $2

Sunday, August 5th, 8pm BST / 3pm ET
APAT WCOAP - Limit 7 Card Stud Championship
2,500 Chips
$20 + $2

Wednesday, August 8th, 8pm BST / 3pm ET
APAT WCOAP - Limit Razz Championship
2,500 Chips
$20 + $2

Saturday, August 11th, 8pm BST / 3pm ET
APAT WCOAP - No Limit Texas Hold'em Heads Up Championship
2,500 Chips
$20 + $2

Sunday, August 12th, 6pm BST / 1pm ET
APAT WCOAP Main Event - No Limit Texas Hold'em World Championship
5,000 Chips
$50 + $5

With 225 points available across all 5 events, the WCOAP will almost certainly have a significant bearing on the final ranking positions and possibly even determine which player wins the expenses paid entry to the PokerStars.com Caribbean Adventure event.

In addition, the top three in each event will secure Gold, Silver or Bronze medals, as shown below by Irish Amateur Champion Jacques Kieft.



As we seek to find our online poker variant Champions and World Champion, let"s keep up the incredible competitive spirit and good humour throughout the week.  This is an oustanding feature of the live and online tournament series, and almost unique to APAT.

The events will appear on the PokerStars client from early next week, under the Tourney / Special tab.  If you are not seeing all of the games, please ensure your PokerStars client filter is cleared, to display all games, and not just Texas Hold'em.

Good luck.

Des.

Lets hope for a decent turnout in all events and not just the holdem events, also is it the same starting chips in each event? Cheers Chris

Inevitably the non hold"em variants will not have a couple of hundred runners each, but these are likely to become quite intense affairs fought over by specialists and players looking to move up the rankings.  I think it will be fascinating to see smaller fields in some of these events, if that does turn out to be the case.

Chipstack information is shown above.

hi_am_chris:
thatll teach me to pay attention to detail lol, sorry for asking a stupid question. I know the non holdem events will feature smaller fields but it would be nice to see everyone that plays the holdem events trying out games that they wouldnt normally

nosey-p:
I only play Holdem, but I will be playing all the games. I have got out of a birthday party to play the Omaha. I hope I get lucky in these games. What kind of fields do you think will play 30, 50, 100?
