Yes if I remember correctly George was the first man to win something at an apat :)
I was at the very first apat event and at the time there was no low buy in dealer dealt deepstack events with such a structure. I think apat can take credit for forcing others to up their game. I think I spent the Friday night in rhinos with Ironside and I remember I got knocked out early in the tourney but the casino did a nice cloudy lager that went down very well. I remember being on the rail was great fun that day as there was a very special feel about the tourney - it was back in the day when everyone eliminated got a round of applause and you felt part of a special event.

Cardiff 2008.
I sat between Josh Sugarman and Andy Price for all of the first day. Also came up against James Edwards, Steve Harrison, Simon Auckland, Dave Potter, Tim Magnus and Jeldon Fernandez. Brendan Hartnett was inducted into the Hall of Fame. I learned a lesson in that tournament courtesy of Andy. With 15 minutes left of Day 1, he said "Raise" and pushed in 6,000 chips. Due to his headphones, he hadn"t heard Seat 1 go all-in for 28k. Andy was forced put in double the 28k, which took most of his stack. To make matters worse, the quiet girl at the end of the table, with a stack of 56k, had picked up KK. He was crippled, while she shot into the chip lead with over 140k and made the final. We sat beside each other on the final table, finishing 5th and 6th, and had dinner together, but we didn"t keep in touch afterwards. Liz, I think she was called. Don"t wear headphones.
My first mention on APAT:

Without wishing to sound too sexist, do you remember the TD in the background she was gorgeous as I remember.
