The wee man and myself are in for tonight. Seeing as he has lasted the longest in most of the competitions we have entered both live and on line -- all I have to say is FML

well blue square logged me on long enough for me top up my account and register for tonights sat, before informing me it "cannot contact the gaming server" and logging me out.
im afraid this is the last straw with blue square and its unfortunate that my relationship to apat has to suffer too. i was really hoping to repeat last year and qualify to return to dublin, where i had a great time last year.
i will make my usual request for a refund when it decides to let me back on, but after that i will no longer be attempting to play any poker (including apat) on blue square.

It"s a real pisser that in this internet age, we can"t have something as simple as a reliable connection to a gaming site.

Really sorry to hear that Billy, but totally understand. I will be bringing this to the attention of Blue Square but it seems there is little they can do to help, which is a real shame in this day and age.

thanks guys. i would appreciate if you would bring it to their attention in the meantime des as i dont know when i will get logged in (been trying for an hour).
if i can get a refund i will just withdraw my money and maybe put it towards the dublin clickfest.

Good luck to the ones that qualified so far, as usual I seem to be running in to ac ad1 when I have a big pair, is it me or do we seem to get this a lot on Blue Sq, have played in tourneys on other sites and its only on Blue Sq that it seems to happen, just wondering what anyone else thinks about this, Oh well I shall try again tonight lol ;D
lets see what happens then ???, any thoughts appreciated !

you"ve never seen AA vs underpair on any site other than BSQ?? How about live?
Perhaps a bit of a limited view to say it only happens on BSQ. I"m sure the RNG used by iPoker is as random as any other site, and as random as the dealer in the live game that shuffles manually.
In both APAT Live Nationals this season there has been a KK v AA encounter early on.... perhaps this only happens in Grosvenor casinos?
-
hi
have the start times for the main event been sorted yet, only i want to know what flight to get over if i qualify
thanks
mike

Mike,
Should be a 2:30pm start. ;D
-
Not saying it only happens on blue sq but I"ve lost in at least 2 sat tourneys with kd kc and come up against ad ac ???
yes it happens elsewhere but for me it seems to be a regular thing lol :"(
will just have to carry on ::) and hope for the best

"Please make sure i don"t run into Quads whilst trying to steal the Blinds at the Final Table"
PS I don"t normally steal..
-
Going to be tough to qualify tonight with only 3 seats up for grabs at the moment.
Good luck everyone.

i cant stay connected grrrr
-
I wish I couldn"t -- 88 on a 339 board -- I push -- he had AA FML -- rebuy record coming up -- i will rebuy enough for a seat as usual
-
I am sorry to those at my table i am trying my hardest to stay connected, i time out every 5 seconds near enough.
But i will continue to get stable I am not giving up!
-
I got rid of my chips with going all in when i had my 5 second window of opportunity. I now fully appreciate the frustration that every1 who has had problems with bsq and the aol/talk talk issue are having.
As for Live Support, they are just ridiculous they have no interest whatsoever and dont care! Needless to say an email will be going off to them, which I am quite sure with their attitude to me tonight will be ignored.
GL every1, lets hope tomorrow night I can stay connected if not will not delay the table by trying like I did tonight to stay stable.

-
I hope me an duke on same table it will look like chip dumpin lol
-
I Wonder how much it would cost for all in every hand for an hour ?? Anyone dare me to ??
-
Prop bet ... I reckon 6 ReBuys ... so $35 total.
-
Prop bet ... I reckon 6 ReBuys ... so $35 total.
6? this is scouse we are talking about?
try adding another 0!!! ;D
-
You reckon 35 goin all in every hand neil lol ??
i have done 100 bucks on $5 re buy before lol wothout goin every hand
-
I was thinking that it would be All In Pre-Flop every hand ... I"m allowing for you being that "lucky squirrel" once in a while, a good few double ups and some folk playing tight ...
If you"re gonna see flops, turns and rivers before you shove, I"d go more towards 12/15 as you WILL get called more often.
T"would be funny nonetheless. -EV when you don"t have a huge edge over other players at the table IMO (sorry Steve) but funny :)
-
Not playing tonight but might watch has this looks like it's going to be fun
-
Please keep me away from Scouse"s table as two people playing that way will only cause problems :-\
-
LOL, Scouse, Duke and Zanshin on one table - wooot wooot!!
-
looking forward to this ! should be fun !!
-
Scouse has The Duke to his left, this could be carnage. ;D
-
LOL"d at that. And Derek to your left - GL with that! :D
-
wish i was on scouse"s table - KK in blinds in first hand - shoved all in over a limper, but no action :( Scouse would have paid!!
-
Scouse"s table is better viewing than Sky.
-
knew it was to gd to be true.
logged in...yes!
registered...yes!
made it through the break and add ons..yes!
won some pots...yes!
stay connected long enough to finish my game.... WHO AM I F**KIN KIDDIN! >:(
only reason i played is cos i have already booked flights and acc.
-
anyone got a picture of a bubble with AA ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
That was horrible!
-
Feel for you Ger !
-
that was horrible ger ! if poss i would ger 15 quid of expenses if other 4 did ger gets well deserved seat is it poss des mods?
well done to all and that was a grind at the end
-
wow
played in a few festivals, travelled a bit, but that final table was up there with the best, there was lots of crazy play early on, after the break it soon settled, there was some monster chip stacks early scouse was in the top 5 all night i think, and a monster bad beat near the end but congrats to all the players & those that made it through the mine field to earn their seat ;D
-
Who got thru then?
-
Anyone know the top 5 ?
Sounds like you were incredibly unlucky Ger.

Them"s the rules and structure, but nothing to stop the five of you from chipping in for his clickfest imo. ;D
Sounds like a great final table, see you all (whoever you are) in Dublin and hope The Duke makes it in through the clickfest.

Apologies to Ger for sucking out with my QQ v AA.
But if they are honest, the rest were pleased it was over after about an hour on the FT!
-
Ger was short stacked and mounted a steady comeback to be reasonably comfortable with about 85k. At this point he got it all in with AA v QQ only to see his opponent hit a straight on the turn leaving him very short. Next hand Ger was allin with 4 opponents. I hit a straight and that finished it for him. I watched Ger get put out in Cardiff with AA also. Very unlucky.
Id be happy to see Ger get a seat for Dublin. He deserves it.
Keep positive!

So, is Jack still in ? ;D

Des, to confirm, I wish to purchase a Dublin seat as per the top10 rankings allowance.

Absolutely not a problem I enjoyed the game last night very much. And now because my clickfest fingers are legendary I will see you in Dublin (even if they are not a legendary as I would like to believe I will still be there for a long weekend on the lash)
-
for administrator - havnt looked at a click fest since new layout of the site. is the link going to appear on the main page at 9pm ?
-
any idea des?
-
I would imagine that the link will appear in the top article on www.apat.com (currently Paul Wilson wins Irish online)
Since the change of website, it is much easier to update now.
But until Des is online, I can"t confirm this for definite.
It will be made very clear though, so as not to confuse anyone.
GL tonight.

it"s there and I presume the text "Irish Amateur Championship seats go on sale at 9pm" will activate

cheers chip mate
-
Sorry guys, have been very busy over the last couple of weeks and have not been around as much as I would like.
Seats will go on sale from the lead article at 9pm, well in theory anyway ;). It"s a first on the new website so I"ve increased the technical testing and prep phase pre launch to 7 minutes...

I"m sure The Duke would happily test it for you if you gave him access at 8:57pm.
Might save a lot of hassle later. I"m sure if you asked him nicely. ;D
-
I think the Duke uses torpedo software for his clickfest entries. Tonight might challenge the wiley old fox though.
For info, on a train heading in the wrong direction, so no pressure here then.
Aarghhhh!
Might have to do a telephone clickfest :), now how much fun would that be?
-
Okay everyone.
Change of plan with the clickfest. We"re going to do a "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire" style fastest finger first.
So put the following poker players in order of fishyness. From smallest fish to biggest fish.
A) Neil "Lukybugur" Dawson
B) Leigh "Chipaccrual" Wiltshire
C) Tim "Luke1" Magnus
D) Daniel "Kinboshi" Philips
GO !!!!!!!!!!!

It seems everyone has had a shocker here though.
I now feel the pain of all those clickfesters who have complained about the site crashing, the payment being refused, etc.
I had all that and more,
including a 10 minute wait to get from the payment link on the homepage to the payment stage. My first card was refused (for the first time ever)...I nearly gave up

Guys,
The site was running ridiculously slow for everyone, so as long as you kept trying to get in, then you should stand as much chance of getting a seat as anyone else.
Not ideal, but technology rarely is.
Hope you all make it. ;D

With the payment element refusing my card I have no other way to get in now. Frustrating to say the least especially as I know how much is in that account !!
Looks like I"ll be missing Dublin then, good luck to everyone else.

Sorry guys, we experienced technical problems like I"ve never seen before at APAT. This started exactly at 9pm and stopped pretty much at 9.40pm. The seats are still on sale, so anyone who has purchased to date, will have a seat. If your card has failed then stop trying to repurchase. I will speak to the payment provider about these tomorrow and have them in order of attempted seat purchase. I am very willing to allocate seats against those failed payments and send you a payment link in 48 hours time, when your card should be okay to use again. I will publish the list of successful entrants at 11pm and the list of people who have been allocated a seat, subject to payment.
Apologies again.
Des.

payment link is still open, does this mean all seats are not sold yet?

Think seats are still on sale Greener.
If my inebriated memory serves me well, there were plenty of non Apat tourneys last year, not sure of fees and that though.
There are also other card clubs, simply will not have the same atmosphere though. :o

Damn - looks like I missed out on all the fun.

well blue square logged me on long enough for me top up my account and register for tonights sat, before informing me it "cannot contact the gaming server" and logging me out.
im afraid this is the last straw with blue square and its unfortunate that my relationship to apat has to suffer too. i was really hoping to repeat last year and qualify to return to dublin, where i had a great time last year.
i will make my usual request for a refund when it decides to let me back on, but after that i will no longer be attempting to play any poker (including apat) on blue square.
a very angry and disappointed billyho.
well a week and i had heard nothin, so i got back onto blue sq online support. who informed me that after passing my query onto the "software provider" on monday night they had a reply by tue (not that anyone was going to tell me). anyway they claimed the problem was not from their end! refund denied!!!! this is the same problem where i was granted a refund during my last attempt to play an apat tournie and logged out in the same manner. i also mentioned that the same thing happend on wed night during the final rebuy sat for dublin (in which i was doin rather well). after my complainin blue sq have told me they will pass it onto the "software providers" again. hopefully i will hear back this time.
either way i shall be taking my online poker money elsewhere. doesnt look like i will be getting to play much apat poker now. (bring back the regionals pleez!)

quick question
is the venue in Dublin a casino or a card room ?? what I suppose I am really asking is does the venue have a bar ??
-
its a card room and no it doesn"t have a bar
there are a few good pubs close up though
-
hipflask FTW!!
-
its a card room and no it doesn"t have a bar
Are you serious?? :o
Where"s that Seat Exchange Board again? :D
-
is the bar close enough for me to fold & get back before the next hand is dealt ? ;D
-
It"s about a 3-iron away
-
well the lack of a bar keeps scouse quiet anyway
kind of...... ;D
-
have to say, that the lack of bar does not take anything away from a great event.
Good to have one nearby though ;)
-
It"s about a 3-iron away
hmmmm judging by the way i hit a 3-iron, the bar is about 3 feet away then.... or possibly even behind me!!
-
well the lack of a bar keeps scouse quiet anyway
kind of...... ;D
Didn"t last year Mark :D Woop Woop!
Think it actually made him worse................did someone say hipflask FTW?
-
there are one or two pubs close by but you would have to get a few pints in to maximize play
-
Is Dublin APAT national sold out?
-
Still some seats left but we will send a group email and release to Fitzwilliam later this week.
-
so if I want a seat buy it today/tomorrow?
