APAT UK Amateur Championship 2009 - Live Update - Day Two
H-Man81:
Just arrived back in Ayr from the weekend (stayed at mate"s in manchester last night, roads not that bad :D and wanted to reiterate all that has been said on this post already. Weekend was absoutely fantastic, camaraderie, banter and even the poker was brilliant. As always, superbly organised and a massive thank you to the whole team. Was great to properly meet so many Apaters and special thanks to my original table, Daniel "I"m his biggest fan you know" Kinboshi, Pilf, Rob and Alan for a cracking 6 hours before we were dispersed round the casino on Saturday night. Poker certainly played second fiddle for a while. After going so short early on sat, amazed and delighted to have made the final table. Disappointed to go out so early but with the blinds at 1 million, 2 million (bloody felt like that ;D had to push with something and knew I was well behind when the "call" came behind me. Congrats to all the finalists and of course especially to Steve. Cheers to the other Scots, well done Stuart on 3rd. This is starting to sound like an oscar speech (mental note, only came 9th, calm down Alan!)Thanks again for everyone involved, played 2 Apat"s before but this weekend summed up superbly for me why so many people fight for those clickfests. Been a while since I had so much enjoyment from £75 (anybody else been to Amsterdam ;D Please note I have never actually been to Amsterdam and that was for comic value (missus may read this ;D
Cheers again all.
Alan Hursburgh, Horsborough, HORSBURGH! ;)

No Ian, when Caz said "nice young man" she was refering to ME.
wp Alan - I"m sure there are about 195 players who would swap you for 9th.

Congratulations Steve vwp indeed.
I made time out to have a chat with Steve at the first break,forum names to faces
thing,have to say, top bloke and after his central league win prior to winning this, its as good as it gets me thinks to back to back APAT wins.Superb performance.
Mind you,after I had ribbed him a bit regarding no medals been allocated to league game wins,I did say the Birmingham poker club would have a wip round to purchase one to acknowledge his achievement............His reply??
"No need, I"m going to win this!" ....Many a true word said in jest ;)
Big up to Todd for making it a Brummie one two,and well played Sir percival.

Congrats Alan, I was delighted to hear you made the FT! Gutted I didn"t witness it first hand but weather WAS bad here last night and an early departure was the right decision.
Hope to see you in Cardiff. Will PM you soon about travel.
