Will Day 1 of the 6-Max be played over a predetermined number of blind levels or down to a certain number of runners ? With it being a 5pm start, capped at 84 runners and only a 10k stack, are there any circumstances under which it might be played to a conclusion on Day 1 ?

Hi Ian, currently I expect Day 1 to complete around midnight-1am latest with 12 players returning for Day 2... depending on runners, if it looked like we could conclude the event by 1am then we'd have to give that serious consideration, but if def coming back for a Day 2, it would be with an absolute min of 6 players.

I hope they are not considered too negative but for a start I will give the reasons I have never played an APAT event. A seat is not guaranteed unless you reserve one in advance, and then the reserve deposit is lost, not considered part of the buy in.
I love the old games rather than NLHE all the time, in fact I came to hate the game. So for me there would never be enough stud and omaha type games to make it worthwhile a few days overnight stay to play the APAT. The only place that now does those games is the WSOP - perhaps a trip to the WSOP if ever I get off my arse and inspired enough to play again and donk off £10-15k. I know that's a lot more than a few quid to reserve an APAT seat but I consider that deposit money being lost to be a bit of an insult.
The APAT was sometimes tempting but it just never had enough of those alternative games (not the dreaded open face thing) to break through my increasing apathy. APAT is a very commendable thing, and I hope you keep going, but I also hope you broaden the appeal with a few more stud or omaha type games, not fewer. I know that's the way it's gone, and that's the way it will keep going. God I hate holdem.

This is precisely why you should come on Monday 10th and Tuesday 11th to play in our £2/£4 HORSE cash game, set to be played all day and all night, I hope!
I know if I bust the HORSE early on Wednesday I will be trying to get a third day of a HORSE cash game!
WHO'S WITH ME? ;D
By the way, I wouldn't look at APAT WCOAP Live as a "turn up, buy in" thing, but more something you plan to do every year.

Hey
i haven't reserved a seat for day 1a of the main event yet, and was just thinking of turning up and playing but wanted to check what's the player capacity and are you near this being filled through who has already reserved/directly bought in online?
Thanks
Lee
