The APAT Masters pro-am will be played at the G Casino in Luton, on October 4th & 5th, with play starting at 2.30pm on both days.
This is the first APAT event open to both amateur and professional players and will feature a £300 buy in, with no registration fee, and added value in the shape of an expenses paid entry to the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour Grand Final worth around $8,000. There will also be a free buffet on day one and for the finalists on day two.
Players will start the event with 10,000 chips on a 40 minute clock.
Online satellites into the event will run on Blue Square on Thursday ($10 rebuy) and Sunday nights ($50 freezeout) at 8pm. A direct buy in will be available from the APAT site on Monday September 8th at 9pm.

hi

If you put in your details and it goes through then I would guess > 0.
Is there a specific split of entries reserved for pros and ams or is it just first come first served??
-
I was looking foward to this, but it clashes with another tourney in Ireland I want to play - it also clashes with GUKPT
:(
Good Luck to the APAT"ers - show those "pro"s" how to play! lol

which gukpt does this clash with ?? i thought thanet was 14th oct ?? bhave i missed something
-
It clashes with the EPT in London, don"t think there is a GUKPT as well
-
just a quick note wondering which of the normal suspects are playing this ??
-
Planning to, not got a seat yet though.
-
Managed to win a seat in the sat. the other night. With this clashing with the EPT I take it we won"t be seeing any big name pro"s taking part?
Anyone know which Pro"s are playing?

I expect there"ll be quite a few of the pros playing in the EPT who will bust out early and fancy this.

My mistake yes EPT not GUKPT
-

I should imagine, as with all Nationals, it will be fully dealer dealt.

yeah bookd both straight after qualifying. thought £30 per night for hotel was pretty reasonable, could have got them for £27 per night but decided to splash out the extra money for a room with a "small window" lol ;D

does anyone know if there are any live satellites (£20/30 rebuy or something) scheduled at the casino?
-
Does anyone know when the list of players will be available?
-

A list of players is normally made available on the forum a couple of days prior to the event.
The direct buy-in is still available and there are a few satellites still to go, so it would be far from a complete list at this stage.
-
Just bought in directly
Gonna break my APAT duck and take this one down
See ya there

Just wondering, does anyone know how many runners there will be for this event.
-
Yeah, I was wondering that too. Des, do you have more information on this event? There have been half-a-dozen satellites, with one seat each. I have seen a few people mentioning buying-in directly, but not that many. I might buy in if I knew more about it. Are you expecting many runners? What would we playing for? How many pros & who? Hellmuth should be finished at the Empire by then. I know you may not have exact answers but could you fill us in a bit on what you are expecting?
-
I can"t answer the questions on number of runners, but I know Des was hoping early exits from the London Leg of the EPT will increase numbers, so exact numbers might not be known until the day.

Usual APAT structure, with great value of no fee and an $8000 added prize.

How many entrants so far?

Only Des can answer that, I don"t know. More than 5 less than 200 ;D
-
Well if its less than 200 I won"t bother - lol.
I"m sure the event will be great as always Leigh.
-
I entered myself (Lynne) and other half Pete yesterday can anyone confirm if we did get a seat as I dont want to book hotel then have to cancel.
-
If the so called "Pros" (especially those at the Vic) get to hear about this with no reg fee plus the added package....I"m sure a fair few will be up for it.
I"d say we are looking at a min 40....hopefully nearer double that.
-
Is BlueSQ running a book on this event, or will that not be practical with the expected late entries?
-
Can a list of runners be put up ??
All people paid in or qualified plese des !
-

You"ll be 80/1 whether you"ve entered or not. Standard Kinboshi Blue Square Odds apply. ;D
-
We have around 20 bought in via the APAT site at the moment and Luton have been selling seats at the casino over the last couple of weeks also (we haven"t seen details of number from them yet).
Blue Square will be sending an email to their active poker player and GUKPT list tomorrow and we should pick up some traffic from the EPT event at the Vic as we approach the weekend.
The maximum number of runners is 150 and I have no idea how many we will actually get as this is our first time running an event like this, but it is reg free, has an excellent structure, added value and is being played in a first class cardroom.

Afternoon
I have just tried to register using a Maestro card but to no avail, Anyone else had problems?

Good point. At 100/1 I"d back myself, but at 80/1 there"s just no value.
I"m gutted I can"t play in this - instead I"m running 13.1 miles in the name of fun. What is that about?
Good luck to all who are playing, especially Laz.

Are you doing it for charity ?

Did you try the debit card option? Maestro cards have worked previously.
-
Yeah tried it 2 or 3 times, each time it said it had there has been an error with the security number then when I cancelled it it said "Thankyou for your registration" all 3 times.
I checked with my bank to see if it had gone through a number of times or if at all, they seem to think not.
I want to registered but dont really want to try it again in case they are actully going through.
I have emailed customer services to try and find out whats going on but havnt had a reply yet.
If you could have a look at this for me and see whats going on it would be marvellous.
Cheers

We have around 20 bought in via the APAT site at the moment and Luton have been selling seats at the casino over the last couple of weeks also (we haven"t seen details of number from them yet).
If there were less than 150 say 100/120, would it become a one-day tournament?

There would need to be a lot lot less than 100 players to reduce this to a one day tournament.
-
I"d also like to know the number of runners as if there aren"t that many I may not play as it is a lot of money to spend. Have bought in direct with money won form last APAT though so technically a freeroll!
-
Will there be a Pro-Am Spoof tournament at any stage of the weekend?

We will take this off sale this evening, probably around 8pm. You will not need any APAT membership proof in Luton, but will require a picture proof of id for the casino.
