Well done John, Congratulations.
MAIR:
Have to say the photos of John have been superb, we see a relaxed and very happy John who is having a gr8 time, definitely on form and in the right place mentally to take down the tournament, which he DID! His photo with trophy is one of the best I have seen yet of a championship winner.

Wow - terrific weekend. Despite crashing early in the Main Event to a pretty nasty beat, this was one of the best poker weekends I can remember. Atmosphere was excellent, despite the card room"s obvious lack of appreciation for APAT. Food was probably the best I"ve ever had in a casino. Live Razz tourney was an experience, and I"ll be gob-smacked if Alex Gardiner hasn"t won it (he has just assumed my "luckbox" title for keeps!).
Cash games were just plain weird (..."I have top pair with 2 kicker, so I call your 2xpot £150 overbet on the river on a flushed, paired board..... oh you have me beat, nh!...") £600 profit for two cash sessions - really didn"t want to stop!
Massive congratz to MR CONSISTENT JOHN MURRAY!! If ever a guy deserves to take one of these down, it has to be you John. Over the moon for you!
To Joe, Charles, Gareth, and Gareth"s Dad.... we really should have let the Razz go and stayed with that plonker on the cash table. Moving was definitely -EV.
To Dan Owston - how many packages??? And yes, Baileys and Tia Maria - definitely a tart"s drink! :)
Cheers to Des and the team (too many to mention nowadays!) for yet another outstanding APAT event.

I couldn"t believe you all left (you could have let yourselves get blinded away for the first level). I had a train booked and was thinking of just buying a new ticket and staying. He had a £300 stack when I went as well, although I"m sure he managed to lose it all.
Great Weekend by APAT as usual. Thanks to Rich, Leigh, Des and the rest of the APAT people. Great job by the Vic as well I thought, they were SO much better than Aspers (Les Croupiers FTW for the Welsh next year?).
And even though I already said it, well done John Murray for finally winning another one and to darren for a fifth final table.

This was my first APAT live event and also my first time at the vic, both the game and the venue were excellent and i would like to say "thanks" to all involved with running this event.
I arrived early and tightend was setting up with some other apatters whos names i am not yet familiar with. To me it was clear that the organisational and logistical side was complicated, yet these guys made it look easy which is a credit to all involved.
To all medal winners in all of the events "very well done and congratulations" but especially to my good freind John on his win in the main event, very well deserved. The scenes from Duffs fullhouse in waterlooville were amazing, we had the APAT live streaming on the big screen with crowds of people/freinds cheering John on, some of them still playing poker on our area final table.
Overall, a great weekend to be remembered.
