The European Amateur Team Championship will take place on the opening and second day of the ECOAP.
The list of competing countries is being finalised and APAT would like to hear from players who would be interested in captaining their country at this event.
Captains can select a panel of four or five players to compete at the European Amateur Team Championship, to include the leading English, Scottish, Welsh, Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland finishing players in the current National Online League. Captains can also chose to be playing or non playing.
The entry fee per player for the event will be £100 + £10 and there will be a fee for two international shirts of around £30.
Players interested in applying for the role of International Captain should pm me their details on the following link. Message Des (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=1).

It will be the same format as last year, the only element we will review is the points allocation.

No Team France this year ?

No Grant
Money is tight at the moment, so when you add the travelling and hotel costs then I would have to make the final 6 to make a profit. I know theses weekends are not just about the poker but when money is tight then I have to stop at home. Plus I"m playing absolutely crap at the moment. Going to a local casino to try and play my way out of it. £20 game with a 3k+ for first place

Cool, cheers mate.
Whilst I am normally an avid follower of the advice given in Travel Tips, in Nottingham I just tend to stay in the Premier Inn as it"s a perfect location. You can walk to DTD if the weather is nice and a taxi back is nice and cheap.
I just booked it arriving on 25th and leaving on 28th with breakfast for £185 (prepaid). That will do nicely :-)
The travel tips for Cork on the other hand I will most certainly be referring too.
EDIT: Whilst we are there is there any chance of "APAT: The Cash Game". It has been mentioned in the past and there was a suggestion of doing it at DTD. If there is enough interest maybe we could ask DTD for a table?
-
Not bad deal if you want breakfast, which I usually don"t, as I"m usually...ahem...delicate in the morning.
I"ve got the Holiday Inn for 2 nights at £38 a night (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=11165.msg179237#msg179237) (Fri / Sat) and then PI for £39 a night (Sun / Mon).
Tips coming up now that I have mine booked. ;D

As in playing an EPT event in the Bahamas and European golf tour events in Dubai etc... I know its not the same thing but...
Just seems a shame that the title of this team championship excludes just one team from the usual suspects and they did bring a lot to the party

Just to confirm the team selection process to captain"s and anyone else who is interested.
The captain"s of England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland will each pick their leading player from the National Online League, which finishes this weekend.
None of the other international teams will be required to do this.
Each captain can submit a squad of either four or five players for the Championship. However, only a maximum of four players will be eligible to play in any one phase of the ECOAP European Amateur Team Championship. Captains can chop and change which of their four players they wish to use for each phase of the event.
So for example, if a captain submits a five player squad to include players a, b, c, d and e. He may chose to play:-
Phase 1 - NLHE Sit & Go - players a, b, d, e
Phase 2 - PLO Sit & Go - players b, c, d, e
Phase 3 - HU - players a, c
Phase 4 - HU - players a, d
Phase 5 - MTT - players a, c, d, e
Captains will not be required to specify which players are playing which phase until just before each phase starts.
If captains have any questions, please post them here.
-
Des - are you able to confirm yet how points will be scored in each event please?
Also, is there definitely only one round of NLHE STT? I seem to remember there were two rounds in the previous championship...

The format will be exactly as per last year"s WCOAP Steve and we"ll try and confirm the points allocation during the month. Expect something similar to the WCOAP, with perhaps a little less emphasis on the final MTT.

OK understood re points, but.... if format is exactly the same as last WCOAP, then surely two rounds of NLHE STT, rather than the one listed in OP, right?
From the last WCOAP thread, the format was...
Day One
2:30pm 7 x 8 handed NLHE STT
5:30pm 7 x 8 handed PLO STT
9:00pm 35 x HU Matches (To be run back to back)
Day Two
2:30pm 7 x 8 handed NLHE STT
6:00pm 56 Runner MTT (9 handed tables)
Am trying to consider best format for team selection and dynamics, hence being picky - it makes a difference....
-
The entry fee per player for the event will be £100 + £10 and there will be a fee for two international shirts of around £30.
Des - If a captain selects five players, will the team be required to pay 5 x £100 + £10 as they will have the advantage of an additional player ?
Secondly, if a team with five players finishes in a medal position, will that team be awarded five medals ?

The OP was used to demonstrate an example of how 5 players might be utilised across the phase types, not an example of the running order of the phases. Apols for any confusion. ;)

If not they, IMO, should.

Bear in mind that in a team of 5, one person will always be sat out, so the team"s actual contribution to the poker will only ever be 4 players..... therefore, the cost should be £400 + £40 for the team, which is £110 each in a 4 person team, and £88 each in a five person team.
-
I asked the question because I still haven"t decided whether to include a 5th player. If that player is playing for free then it would make sense to bring in a PLO or a HU specialist just for that event. Is that fair ?

True..but that team of 5 has the advantage of depth...so they should pay more for that advantage.

Exactly.
-
I disagree completely Paulie. It"s a team competition, and every team will have the same number of players in each round - four, and can only score the same number of points per round as every other team. One player from a team of five will always be excluded during each round. So, why should one team therefore contribute more to the overall prizepool than another team?
It"s more likely that the Eng, Ire, Wal, Sco, teams will have five players whilst other teams have four, due to the mandate to pick the highest scoring online league player.
-
Yes, I"m with Steve on this. Every team has the option of naming a squad of 5 if they wish, however we won"t require them to have 5. 4 players can only contribute at any one point and for that reason the entry fee per team is £400 + £40.
-
It"s more likely that the Eng, Ire, Wal, Sco, teams will have five players whilst other teams have four, due to the mandate to pick the highest scoring online league player.
As I recall the highest scoring player is guaranteed a place...not that they will play.
I think the number of players per round are irrelevant..if you have a deeper squad you have an advantage over those who DON"T have a team of 5.
I suppose, in an ideal world, it would make sense for every team to field of squad of 5 but that wasn"t the mandate.
EDIT: However, Des has spoken. :)
-
As I recall the highest scoring player is guaranteed a place...not that they will play.
A little irrelevant really. Wouldn"t be very fair to have someone end up being the highest scoring player, get a "place" in the squad, turn up at DTD having paid hotel and travel costs, and then not get a game.

True...but I didn"t make the stipulation....I"m just clarifying stating that it"s there. :)

Des - If a captain selects five players, will the team be required to pay 5 x £100 + £10 as they will have the advantage of an additional player ?
Secondly, if a team with five players finishes in a medal position, will that team be awarded five medals ?
it would only seem fair that if 5 players take part and the team reach medal positions that each player should receive a medal as they will have all paid similar amount for entry fee and hotel etc
-

Sorry missed the second half! Yes, five medals will be made available.

Here are answers to a few questions that are likely to come up :-
If you missed APAT's announcement about the new cardroom, have a read here (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=11536.0)
Buyin is only available through the new APAT cardroom that you can download by clicking the banner.
(http://www.apat.com/images/apat_banner_pcuk.jpg) (http://www.apat.com/index.php/download/)
Buyin is in Euros, but payouts on the day at DTD will be in GBP. An exchange rate will be fixed nearer the time, which will also provide us with a GBP buyin for any alternates on the day.
Satellite winners will automatically be entered into the target tournament.
Satellites will continue to run each week for upto 4 weeks, although APAT reserves the right to withdraw satellites should the holding tanks reach capacity or there is a lack of demand for satellites.
Players can win multiple satellite seats. Additional seats will be paid out as Tournament Credits.
Players can buyin to the holding tank and then win a subsequent satellite. They will be credited Tournament Credits. If they unregister from the holding tank, they will get the cash back, and can then use the Tournament Credits to re-enter.
Holding tanks will close on Thursday 16th August at 9pm. After that date, any players wishing to make amendments to registration need to utilise the APAT Seat Exchange Board (http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?board=37.0)
Holding tanks are capped at - Main Event (200), Stud (54), 6Max (108), PL Omaha (108)
-
The first set of satellites are now available in the poker lobby.
Quickest way to find them is :-
Multi Tourneys > Click on Tournament to sort alphabetically
APAT Tourneys should be at the top of the list
If you can"t see them, please check your tourney filters first

Does anybody know what DTD are running the night of day 1 main ?

Ok, I"ll ask - how come the currency is Euros for ECOAP and the new poker room ? Was that by choice ?
-
Ok, I"ll ask - how come the currency is Euros for ECOAP and the new poker room ? Was that by choice ?
The existing card room was Euros, which is the network norm, therefore ECOAP buyin needed to reflect this. As I"ve mentioned, all payouts at DTD will be in GBP, and entry for the team event will be in GBP at DTD on the day.

Will there be a guaranteed seat offer for the individuals chosen for their countries in the team event?
-
Will there be a guaranteed seat offer for the individuals chosen for their countries in the team event?
For the main event, yes there will, although feel free to try and satellite in or buyin direct if you have the chance, as it makes it far easier to deal with than having to hold back seats to buyin on the day.

Is there scope to increase the cap of 200 for the main event if the demand is there, as DtD clearly have the capacity?

Saved my pennies.
Think I might just... play them all.

Will there be any seats open to buy in directly @ dtd?

There may be the odd spare seat on the day, and there certainly will be alternates lists for the main event, 6max and PLO, but the APAT cardroom is the only way to guarantee a seat prior to the event.

Hi all
Quick heads up re: late reg. on the software: A tourney has late reg. available if 8 or more players start it. If there"s 7 or less than late reg. is not available. (There"s 6 signed up to tonight"s sat. currently, with the game due to start @ 7pm)

Is there scope to increase the cap of 200 for the main event if the demand is there, as DtD clearly have the capacity?
Quite possibly.
Where did you find that detail? I can"t see a cap mentioned anywhere. I guess it is somewhere as Leigh has answered. Seems odd - there were >400 in previous years.

Hi, I"m thinking of going to Nottingham and playing all the individual events, I was just wondering if team Wales team has already been picked? I couldn"t find anything on the forums so just asking, my name is David Langley.

Hi David,
The Welsh team are two times World Amateur Team Champions and Home International Champions and I believe their team is picked for this event. Getting some good results in this Championship and others will help you to get noticed for the international team events.
Regards,
Des.

Two day 1s in previous years, but only for WCOAP I think - only one day 1 for this ECOAP event....

Hi David, nice to meet you in Cardiff BTW.
I have been extremely busy, unfortunately. However I should have details on this forum by Wednesday at the latest.
Cheers, apologies for great delays and thanks for your patience.

Drag and drop them. Close the box and grab the "line" with yer mouse and drag it to wherever ya like on screen.

The menus drag and drop, or you can click on the seat image, and change your preferred seating.

Yes, you can move these boxes out of the way.
Also, you can choose a favourite seat to sit in by clicking the ghostly white seat icon to the bottom right of the screen (above the auto action check boxes).

See the wee loop d loop thingy at the top of the table? Think it"s top left. Click on that and you can change where your seat is located.

No problem :)
but, with the box still there, you"ll find you can"t see the person"s cards sat in that seat when you go to showdown.
So, keep trying to move that box. It does work I promise! :D

37 minutes of late reg remains. 25 runners taking part at the moment. The average stack is only 2160 (starting stack 1500) and it"s a rebuy, so you won"t be at any disadvantage (if you rebuy immediately, you"ll actually have an above-average stack :))

Value has regged

I already said i was in!!! Churning through rebuys at an alarming rate.
Our table is sick, draws and redraws getting there all over.

Hi guys, can someone confirm what time the 6 max and the M.E start at DTD on there respective days.
Im guessing it"s the usual 2:30 cards in the air ?

ah, the old click fest days. Yes you had to type in all your details very fast because seats snapped up. However, the canny ones had details ready to copy and paste from a word doc courtesy of sage advice from Kinboshi.
Then there was the hold breathe stage to see if the transaction actually went through ;-)

Well that would have been a pain. I have a security check on my account and have to type in additional stuff. Lucky I hated Blue Square so point blank refused to play until they got replaced. They went away in Season 4 after I started playing and seats became much easier to get. I assume that is due to the vast increase in the level of competition :-p

Sorry I am sure this question has already been answered but I can"t find it.
The PLO tournament, if somebody makes day two of the main event, not that I am planning on it, but some people probably will. Are we able to unregister for the PLO. I have currently bought in via the online software but might unregister and just buyin when I bust the main if I am not able to do so at DTD. Seems the best option.
Also out of interest, don"t think this has been asked why has the WCOAP been moved from it"s normal place to April and effectively replaced by this. Just wondered that all :-)

I"m certain this will be the usual ME structure run by APAT:

Based on previous experience, you can unreg at DTD and they refund you in cash. If not, PLO usually sells out and you can sell your seat onsite to the next "alternate".
I wouldn"t unreg from the PLO if you want to play it just hoping to buy-in on the day. As I said, PLO has always proved popular so you might not get in.
-
Also out of interest, don"t think this has been asked why has the WCOAP been moved from it"s normal place to April and effectively replaced by this.
I know that an August WCOAP festival would clash with a certain LARGE tournament elsewhere and could pull players away from APAT's premier event.
Of course, the August BH at DTD is too good an opportunity to pass up (for both APAT & DTD) so the slightly smaller ECOAP festival is a nice alternative.
That"s what I thought when I saw the schedule in February but Des will, no doubt, blow my thinking out of the water.

I would say you"re pretty close on the money there. In addition, I like the thought of having the WCOAP as the final event of the season, it"s something to retain everyone"s interest right to the end.

It will be the same as previous years Steve. Players will be able to sell the seat to someone else at DTD as opposed to unregistering. APAT will already have sent the prize money to the club and DTD will have resourced the events based on our numbers, hence this methodology.

Hello everyone, just a quick question:
Is there a maximum on the number of entrants allowed for the ECOAP European Amateur Poker Championship tournament starting on the 26th of August?
I should be able to play but would prefer to register later so this information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
-
Just a couple of questions if this info is decided on yet?
What time are the events starting?
What are the starting stacks and clock for each event ?
Booked in for all 4 barring a long run in the Goliath.
-
Just a couple of questions if this info is decided on yet?

What are the starting stacks and clock for each event ?
ME stack is 15000 with 45 minute levels - Starting time usually 2.30pm
Side Events: Not sure of stacks and levels (but these are usually generous) - Starting time usually 3.00pm

Same as normal events then, I know last year the WCOAP had extra chips ? Just asking out of self interest greed ;)

This isn"t the WCOAP but I think (at least I think I recall) they trialled an increase from 10k to 15k then. This worked so they adopted it for S6.

At the Stud side game at G Luton a little while back, both said "experts", messers Pablar and Dai da Destroyer gave me a few pointers prior to the off. After an hour I had about 10% less than my starting stack and the aforementioned "experts" were both out. So no, I guess it isn"t a real game after all. ;) :o

What time does the Stud start on the Friday? 4pm suits me - just enough time to book into hotel, have 2 pints, and get a cab to dtd.

I believe 3pm is standard for "side events".

Hi everybody! I am very sad I cannot be part of the European Festival this summer. Lot of great teams lined up again this year. Would have loved to be part of it. Good luck to everyone and be sure I"ll come back for gold in March at The World Championship! #silversilvereverywherebutneverenoughgold
Be careful with the French team this year, you are not dealing with "The Unbluffables" this time and the HU may last longer than one single hand :P
I"ll be following Des and his Z Team with passion as usual.

Matt, as you know I"ve won a main event seat. If I win another tonight can I transfer it to someone else?

My mate, who isn"t with APAT is wondering if a "Chip" he has from DTD will be able to be used for entry to the 6 Max. Is it cash or satellite qualifying or could he ask DTD to see if he could use one of their Golden Chips for entry...
-
Just bought into the Main Event and the 6 max event. Cant wait. See you there. Liam

Sigh. KJ no match for 87. Oh well... good luck in the main to the winner. :)

Good game... Nearly 1.5 hours... Your KJ held up against my 98 suited earlier when I hit the 9 and then the J fell.... I just felt the 78 suited was good.. I had been the pub most of the afternoon.... Sorry, but the wife is happy for the savings.. She now has shopping money for the Bank Holiday..

Are direct buy-ins allowed over the cash desk at DTD? I know they were last year at the WCOAP.

For the WCOAP, we were sold out in advance in all events. The only direct buyins at DTD were alternates and the odd last minute seat exchange.
I would expect a similar situation for the ECOAP with seats getting snapped up before the holding tanks close.

How many seats are left at the moment? And how do mac users go about buying in online? The software I think is not compatible.

Haha. Is that based on the 1 and only hand we"ve played together where I couldn"t bring myself to fold KK against your K7off in a 4bet pre pot? Nice get there, I"m not bitter. ::) lol

Yeah sorry if I was a bit harsh in that post; I think I was entitled to a little whinge though...the wound was still fresh.

Day 1 is Sunday, Day 2 is Monday. No Day one A and B it is a two day event, not 3. Saturday is 6-Max and Monday is PLO.
Yes there is still plenty of space in all the holding tanks

Good to see your heading out for the fun and frivolities.. Why not make it a longer trip there"s the Stud 6 max and PLO to jump in ;D.. Don"t worry if your not up with the rules of Stud, can"t be that hard to learn Ian (pables) even binked a win if my memory serves me correct ;D ;D

Late reg. is only active if more than 6 players start the tournament.
Otherwise, e.g. if only 2 players started, someone could wait until one of the players has hardly any chips left and then register and be heads up.

It was just to make it easier for Suz to win

Are any events likely to overlap? As well as the Team event, I was looking at playing the individual main event, 6 max and Omaha.

The team event is invite only.
Friday - Stud Side Event
Saturday - 6 Max Side Event
Sunday - Main Event Day 1
Monday - Main Event Day 2 / PL Omaha Side Event
Only clash is going to be if you make Day 2 of the Main Event, but if you go out early on Day 2, you may still get into the PLO as an alternate for 3 levels, or you as still in the Main Event, in which case you are probably in the money. ;D

Thanks. That kinda rules out both then, I"ve had my place on Team Scotland confirmed.

Is it going to be possible to enter the main event on the day....touch and go if I can make it and won"t know until last minute.

It"s looking quite tight on numbers, but any spare capacity will be sold at DTD on the day, along with an alternate list for the first three levels.

How do I locate the holding tanks please ?
I want to check if my name is entered in the ME
and how do I enter online into the 6-max ?

Hi Zozzy, as the last qualifier your name will be entered into the Holding tank by midday tomorrow.
You can see the holding tanks under Multi Tourney > Special in the APAT Poker Software.

Can you please confirm what the starting times are for the 6 max and the main event? Also can i buy-in at DTD on the day, is there late reg, if so how long for?
Sorry for all the questions!
Thanks in advance ;D

Main Event is a 2:30pm start for both days.
6 Max is a 3:00pm start.
Any spare capacity will be sold via DTD (Any seats may be sold by DTD prior to the start day)
Late Reg and/or Alternates list will be available for 3 levels.

Yeah you won"t have a problem I would think. When you come to play the Stud, make sure you buy in for the Omaha at that time.

Anyone else not seeing the Hoding Tank in the client any more? I registered a few weeks back, and as far as I know, it was under Multi Tourney - Private, or Multi Tourney Special. The APAT ECOAP is not showing up for me now.
If you can see it, I would be grateful if you would post exact instructions, in case i am doing something stupid. (I checked that I do not have filters on).
Thanks.

The holding tanks have now been taken down so that we can transfer funds and player details to DTD ready for next week.
We will be publishing a player briefing and full player lists over the next few days on the forum.

Does this mean I can contact DTD and buy-in over the phone prior to the weekend. Can almost certainly make it now but don"t want to drive down to find no places.

That was a fail. doh. Will it be possible to buy in through DTD over the phone? Can 99% make it now and just found out holding tank closed. Don"t want to travel down if chance won"t get a seat.

Hi Leigh, just a quick question.. Will there be no antes at any level of the six max side event?.. Not that it matters much to me as I never usually reach antes in a full ring tourney..
-
Hi Leigh, just a quick question.. Will there be no antes at any level of the six max side event?.. Not that it matters much to me as I never usually reach antes in a full ring tourney..
I"ve copied the same structure as we used for the WCOAP last year. That"s not to say that there weren"t antes, and in fact it was just missed off the structure that got posted up here.
I will double check with DTD and post up if antes have been missed off.
-
I understand the issues with the vagueries (is that even a word?) of the exchange rate, but...
I really feel that the direct buy-in cost should be at least as much as that paid by those who have committed their funds for the last month or so.
-
Managed to buy-in online through DTD with no problems. Many thanks

We have an exchange rate from the bank for the funds from Euros into GBP. We also have a commitment to DTD in the reg fees for both the main event and side events.
At the end of all that, with the £92 + £10 buyin, APAT are sticking in 37p per player. Not an ideal scenario and it all adds up, but in future, we will try not to be so spot on with the Euro buyin figure and will give it a little more slack to account for rate movements. That will ultimately mean slightly higher GBP buyins, but then there can be no complaints.

That will ultimately mean slightly higher GBP buyins, but then there can be no complaints.
As I said, I realise there are ForEx issues and I realise that the juice needs to be a fixed amount.
But the direct buy-in amount is surely down to APAT to set and I assume that the £92 is a function of the exchange rate when the funds were withdrawn.
What would be good would be for a record to be kept of Webdollar"s daily exch rate from the when the seats go on sale until the holding tanks close. The direct buy-in amount could then be set to match the highest GBP amount that anyone who has pre-registered would have paid.

Just wanted to congratulate the team on excellent structures for the main and side events, these should make all the comps a true test, can"t wait excitement really building!
Really looking forward to the Stud, was great fun last year!
See you all Friday!
