Title: APAT Magazine - Launch Issue
Post by: APAT on February 28, 2010, 22:54:51 PM
Here is the lauch issue of APAT Magazine, which will be distributed electronically every quarter.
We"re soft launching the issue here before emailing to the entire database next week. We"d very much welcome your thoughts and feedback prior to doing that.
Thanks to Richard and Leigh for writing a number of articles in this issue. Also, thanks to Barry Carter of PokerNews; who APAT are partnering with for the provision of content for "Poker Circuit", our general poker news section.
If any of you would like to contribute to APAT Magazine going forward, please let me know.
Regards,
Des.

very very good, although let down by the front page pic :)
shame this is just electronic, I think it would be an excellent mag to be found in the card rooms.

This would be a fine addition to the magazines we offer in the fortune rooms (N.Ireland), would get even more fab players interested in the APAT games.

It"s all readable but some people might find some of the fonts in the side boxes a bit small - EDIT: scrub that, just found out how to adjust it, so that just leaves the choice of photo"s problem
Apart from that the only problem was too many images of Leigh and too many of Kinboshi

Is Kinboshi in it ? What did he do last season ?

Afraid to open it, are the images inside as scary as the front?

Excellent!!! Good quality and good content. Do you intent to add tips to page 3?
It did give rise to one question though. The section about the online league says top 9 players score points, but the link takes you to a page that say top 10 players.
Can you clarify please.

It"s 9, as that is Betfair"s standard table setup. Will get it changed. ty

Well, it"s certainly one for the PUN-ters ("we"re Dublin your excitement"!!!). As a former magazine chief editor I just want to compliment all involved in the production of this e-magazine because that"s a shed-load of work. Haven"t read the articles in full yet, but layout and coverage merit lots of brownie points. Pix stunning. Well done APAT journos & layout peeps. An ace debut issue!

Great magazine.. Might be an idea to see if its possible to email it out to all members. With the vast amount of threads on the board its very easy for it get missed by people either deleting threads, or it ending up at the bottom.
new APAT TV host... mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :o :o

Great mag, very well presented. Good interviews with Steve and Brian, both top blokes!
I think it looks very professional and manages to get the APAT message across, IE. well organised events with a good structure for an affordable buy in played in a great spirit.
Well done all involved. See you at DTD.
Richard.

Great job indeed, fantastic surprise to discover this mag. In a couple years it will become a top printed magazine.
Articles and interviews are very professional, I really like it.
Congratulations to the team and to Des, your brain is just an massive construction idea factory!
ps: for the record, on the page "Poland win 2009 European Amateur Team Championship" you should read "In front of a huge railing section Jean-Michel Ballocchi of France..." instead of "franck viollet of France beat his German opponent". I like Franck but I like historical facts as much ;-)
