UK Team Championship - Captain's Thread
APAT:
This is the Captain"s thread for the United Kingdom Team Poker Championship. All essential information relating to the event will be made available through this thread. If you have any questions on behalf of your team, please post them here.
Here is the preview video featuring images from last year"s Championship. Despite having to push the event back by four weeks to January, this is still entitled "2009" as we would be unable to hold two in 2010.
Captains are free to put the preview video on their own forums to build excitement towards the event, which we expect to have one of the biggest rails in British Poker history.

APAT:
The APAT UK Team Championship will be played at the G Casino in Manchester on January 23rd / 24th, 2010, with play starting at 2.30pm on both days.
The format will see 20 poker communites from all over the United Kingdom compete for the prestigious title. Included in the field will be Bristol & South West Meetup, the reigning APAT United Kingdom Team Champions and Mary Martin, last year"s individual Championship winner.
The format for the event will be a 10,000 chip, 160 runner, multi table freezeout, with a 45 minute clock. As with all APAT events, the UK Team Championship will be registration free for members and have a £50 buy in per player. Each team will feature 8 players, kited out in their team colours. Points will be awarded to the top forty finishers to determine the Team Championship.
The prize money will be split 50% / 50% between the Team and Individual Championship. In addition, the owner of the winning Team will receive an added prize of £1,000 and the Championship Cup, while the winner of the Individual Championship will receive an entry to a GUKPT main event and the Championship Gold Medal. These added value prizes are courtesy of tour sponsor Blue Square Poker.
A total of 33 poker communities applied to take part in the event, cementing it"s position as the most popular community based tournament in amateur poker. In addition to the 20 teams participating, a large number of spectators are expected to attend and an electric atmosphere seems assured, certainly if last year"s event is anything to go by.
