What does everyone think of an APAT Tournament of champions?

Have everyone who has made the top 3, or maybe 5, of every APAT event over the last year/season come together for one big two day event.

Do the two sentences not contradict one another?

Nitpicking?? Moi??  :o

I actually believe a Tournament Of Champions is a very good idea (I do believe I suggested the idea during S1)... however, I think it should be just what it says on the tin - for APAT Tournament Champions.

I think if you were to do one this year or next it should just be winners!You could even give chips out depending on what people won i e 5k for small field winners 7k for large field and 10 k for national winners! Up to maximum of 15/20k ?
That aint really my idea before i get ripped similar to GUKPT champion of champions.
But i do think there is definately enough winners to have enough people for all champions.

Would this be played live or on-line?

Could it be done as a kind of a charity shield at the beginning of S3? Half of the pot going to the charity of the winner's choice?

Now that is a good idea.

Not sure about the logistics of the idea, but the principle sounds good.

Imho, it would have to be live - such a "celebration" of the champions wouldn"t have the same "feel" if it were online.

The banter would be better live.

Streaming the event online would be good though.

Its a nice idea though! :)

Wouldn"t have to be half the prizepool, but something. Poker players really are nice people. :D

Nice idea but there is absolutely no space in the S3 schedule for this.

If I dropped hints Wayne, you"d just want to know more.  Particularly with the two major new initiatives being planned....

Here we go again. I propose that we don"t mention Season 3 (after this post) then maybe Des will get bored and tell us sooner.

Initiative 1

Des will buy a drink at the bar

Initiative 2

Des will allow Tighty to include norkage in his updates.


Sorry Des, have I let the cat out of the bag ?     ;)
