Club Captain
It"s with great pleasure I announce Ross Johnson (Roskopico) as Captain for Newcastle Poker Club.
(http://www.net10.co.uk/APAT/forum/ross_captain.jpg)
Ross is an avid APATer - a regular in the Online and Live games throughout Season 2 - and as close to a Poker Nut as you"re likely to meet. He"s a member of the Newcastle Poker Forum and plays Live on a regular basis in and around Newcastle.
I had the pleasure of meeting and spending much of the weekend with him in Dublin and since then we chat on WLM (sharing Bad Beat stories mainly, which we both have plenty of). He"s not shy to speak his mind (see his Blog) but he"s promised to "calm it" if he was selected as Captain. I"m not so sure he will ... ;)

Captain Update ::)

Congrats on Captaincy Ross.
-
Thanks for the intro Neil, I think.
It will be a great honour to lead the winning team to the final, just need to get some numbers together now to combat the hoards from over the border but I"m sure quality will rule of quanitity in the end.

Nice post and a very accurate prediction imo. Just think the winner will come from the South. ;D

Congrats to Ross. I have no doubt the Northern Division will be the winners come the end of Season 2! Can"t wait for the start of the season now.

Newcastle have just secured the services of the GiMac - game over northern division!

Congrats on being appointed captain Ross. 8)

That bad beat actually cost us 1 point too which was doubly sick. We all need to work on improving our number of players if we gonna have a chance but still a LONG way to go.
Heads down, swing easy. GLGLGL

DO we know how the team did overall i.e. have the results been posted?

We were 4th on the night for 0 points. Marathon not a sprint tho fella.
Do need more to turn out for the team though.

I"m surprised there aren"t more turning out for the Toon to be honest.

Week 2 is upon us on Sunday 15th Feb.
We need a full squad out to compete with the Scottish and the Irish so I implore all Newcastle Team members - FOR ENGLAND - to get registered up asap.
Anyone not in a team get yourselves signed up to the pride of ENGLAND now!!!
(apologies to GiMac and any others of dubious origin).
-
... surely Newcastle is (still) part of SCOTLAND? - Right?

Oh yeah, and I won.
:D better luck this week TOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!
realsider, from Belfast :D!

Jo asked me to point out she"s sorry she cost the "team" 1 point
We all need to work on improving our number of players if we gonna have a chance but still a LONG way to go.
And a grand total of 2 players from the team sat down last night, probs coz of the GUKPT. I"d love to play these but we can only connect 1 comp to t"internet
Both Heads down, swing easy. GLGLGL
They both did and played very well, , good game Dave getting 4th place, knew it was at least 1 point for the team when it was down to 4 left, and congrats to Jo for winning it clinching 10 pts and 3 pts for the team (cup of tea waiting when you get in) :-*
Overall good game, finished about 12.30 am, wp all and we enjoyed the railing banter for the other teams. Am not a pro updater but i thought i"d post one anyway
-
Cheers for that Texfitz. I didn"t realise we were the only two guys who entered the tourny. Newcastle could really do with more players enterring to make it easier to qualify but hey, I still have faith :P!
Congrats to Jo for winning it though!

Hi all,
about to enter my first league game this sunday as a toon player! Dont want to let the team down so thought i would ask is there any team play involved at the tables like keeping teammates in the game or is it just a normal tourney with points being scored for the team sot of on the side?
-
The League games are "play for yourself" and let the points each team win take care of themselves. We do and will clamp down on any "soft play".
Welcome to APAT Pempi and GL in the League.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

On another note, does anyone require a lift down to Bolton from Newcastle. I have one seat left in the car if anyone requires it - will be leaving on the Saturday morning.

Circus sounds spot on ... how many runners likely?
How early required to register?
