If you turn up on the day, the best you can hope for is to be on the alternates list, whcih means you can buy in if any players get knocked out in the first two levels. That can be anything from 0-4 players.
If you want to play in this event, you really need to have your seat sorted in adance, by either
Qualifying through satellites on Blue Square (15th, 16th, 17th June)
or
Buying in direct from www.apat.com (18th June)

Folks,
What is the capacity of the Maybury and where does that stand with regards to all other APAT Live Nationals.

Glasses fine. Hoods are okay too, some casinos have a rule of only wearing them in the poker room though.
You"ll be fine.
-
ye no worries mate i thought it would be fine. just coz the gala i play in the card room is on the main gaming floor so covering your head is a no no.
how ever in the mint etc im fine coz its a seperate cardroom thought it would be same.

Hey im pretty new to this i signed up a few weeks ago for this live scottish APAT event.
decided to play in the online event last night which was great despite danman hitting a one card out to bust me in 22nd lol >:( if i do not qualify for the live event on monday or tuesday how hard is it to get a ticket during clickfest? ??? does it fill up instantly with only 130 seats ???
thanks :as: kh
-
Irvine01 I presume ... ? I noticed you as a new face at the tables last night. Welcome to APAT, I"m sure you will enjoy your time here.
It"s called a Clickfest as it"s "fastest finger first". For Scotland, it"ll be around 200 people clicking for around 100 seats and it"ll be all over by 21:02 / 21:03. So get prepared. :)
-
yeah thanks man i had won $250 on pokerstars earlier yesterday and thought with 10,000 starting chips the online scottish event was to good to pass up i played real well and quite solid :) tried to pick the pace up later on and just got real unlucky to a one outer but hey ho. this forum looks real good and everyone seems to know everyone :D i really want to try start participating in all the live apat events. iv"e been playing poker for a good few years now and won a reasonable amount of money but just at local pubs and the Circus, I played in the ECOOP M/E last week which was a really good deepstack slow paced tourney. But never played in any sponsored events before but think i have the talent to play so heres hoping i get a ticket. it sucks that the scottish event is the smallest ??? do you have to keep refreshing ur page at like 8:59 in order for the link to pop up? do the longer standing members have a better chance than me or is it first come first serve?
Thanks 8) :as: kh

The best way of refreshing the screen in F5 and everyone has an equal chance of getting in.
As you have not done one of these before, here"s some tips.
When the link becomes active, it will take you to a screen to enter your name, you then click a button and it takes you to a payment screen. Here you enter all the normal details (Name, address, card details etc.) It is debit cards only, I am afraid. Once all that info is in, you click submit (or something like that) and as long as all the details you have entered are correct, that is when your order gets time stamped.
It is first come, first served, and once the seats are gone, the link is removed. Usually about 3mins. If you are unlucky not to get a seat, you can always start pleading on the seat exchange thread, or turn up early on the day of the event at the casino and get your name down as an alternate. Any players knocked out in the first two levels can be replaced with a new player.
Hope that helps.

Yep, keep refreshing the page at 8:59 as it IS first come first served in the clickfest.
Hope to meet you there Joker. If you are from Irvine, feel free to sign up for the Glasgow Club in our Online National League in which games are held every 2nd Sunday on BlueSq. Next Sunday will be Leg 11 of 20 but there"s still plenty of time to make a name for yourself, help your team and bag yourself a GUKPT Seat.
For more info, see the links below (in my signature) and the full details here (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=2331.0).

lol yeah defo hope to get to Edinghburugh. im not from Irvine tho im from Gelnrothes Fife my last name is Irvine lol
i wasnt sure how all the teams and leagues worked ??? is there much point in joining half way through and is a GUKPT seat still achievable ::) how do u gain stars on ur name and upload a photo of urself my photos keep failing ??? i really want to earn a name and be noticed so heres hoping :D
thanks :as: kh
-
i seriously hope i get through the clickfest lol cos i won my buy in yesterday playing those 2 live tourneys and cashing :P
-
A good deep run in just three games from the remaining 10 will put you right up there individually and if your team mates (would you become a Dundee Club member then?) can continue to help you gather Club points, qualifying for the Final where you can play for the GUKPT Seat is very achievable.
All the best!
-
how do u gain stars on ur name and upload a photo of urself my photos keep failing?
Stars next to your name come with posts and status. You"ll see ;)
Photos of 65x65 pixels can be uploaded / linked to. Feel free to PM me a small pic and I"ll reply with details of how you can refer to it.
-
:D thanks mate cleared alot up for me there
will i be seeing u at the tables tonight to qualify or have u already secured a ticket ???
another thing what card is best to pay for ur ticket by? Electron or Debit
thanks :as: kh
-
Hi Joker,
You are more than welcome to join the Dundee Team.
As you will see from the other threads we are currently sitting in 4th position on the leaderboard and will have every chance of winning the league.
We have a small team in comparison to the likes of Glasgow and Edinburgh, but more than make up for it with Skill ;D ;D
Would love it if you joined.
PS Just as Neil said. A couple of deep runs and you are right in the mix.
If you have any other questions then feel free to add them to the board or PM me.
Good luck at the tables.
ForthThistle
Dundee Poker Captain.

yeah if im joining a team it will be dundee or edingburgh as they are close to me :D
i work most sundays tho so not sure it the best thing for me unless i can arrange something at work ???
what does being in the teams entail? are all games played online or at casinos?
-
Yep, keep refreshing the page at 8:59 as it IS first come first served in the clickfest.

cheers, I"ll take a look at this and enter details. yeh Glasgow :P
-
what type of card is best to use for buying ur ticket ? visa electron or visa debit?
thanks
-
Best to use VISA Delta. When it asks you, choose Delta and DO NOT PUT A START DATE. We have had problems with this in the past where transactions pause for reasons unknown to us. By not completing the start date, you will experience less problems.
GL!

Just shows the amount of interest in this up here.
Could something like qualifiers not be run in the Regions with the entry to them a clickfest and then a final in somewhere like Edinburgh. I think you would get enough interest for that. :)

Dont really know... after an hour of clicking the apat site with the link first appeared for me just after 10 and took nearly 10 mins after clicking on that to be able to put my name and payment down. Just lucky with a really good net connection i guess :)

Right I"m really off to work this time. Will check this when I get home at 4am...
Good luck to everyone, hopefully all of us who tried so far have got a seat. I"m not too hopeful but who knows, maybe a lot of people lost interest due to having to wait SOOO long and we have a slight chance.
GG and GL ;)
