;D Is Ben going to break Darren "final table" Shallis"s heart and be the first to win Two main events?
:( Why no live feed? If its a money thing, please reconsider because the live feed is/was great.
;D Is Ben going to break Darren "final table" Shallis"s heart and be the first to win Two main events?
Me : Yeah, you could be the first to win two

Me : No
Ben : Hmmmm, okay [And off he walks]

The short(ish) answer is..."No"...unless someone knows different.
The requirements are such that finding a venue is quite difficult. This has been covered a number of times before but I know that the APAT team are more than interested in being kept informed of potential venues by locals.

London can be done, The Vic for example, or even in a hotel I know the owner of. The International might be able to cope now (but the regularly run £100+ and might not be interested). The Fox I think isn"t big enough unfortunately.

I assumed that South-East meant "excluding London"
The Vic we"ve done and I think you are right on the International.
I think the Fox could cope (at a squeeze...I believe that they have 18 tables) especially as that is the planned Pro-Am venue, but I don"t have details of that yet.
As has been mentioned, hotels are not currently a viable option.

Not sure about this bit, The LPC was run out of the Kensington Close hotel and was 100% legit, they used "voluntary rake" but since APAT don"t charge juice we dont have to worry.
As for South east, yeh it sucks big time! G Casino Thanet and who wants to go there?
