....to Tony, Des, Richard and helpers for organising yet another fantastic APAT live event, in Dublin.
Just please can we arrange for my other half (Cazzaline) not to be moved onto my table late in the day - I"d like a chance of making it to day 2 !
Looking forward to the European event.
All the best.

I think you"re all the inspiration she needs!! Must apologise as well, as I provided her with some of the ammunition in the form of donating some of my chips before the inevitable happened!
Great to see you both again.
-
Good to see you as well Daniel, in fact it was great to see so many familiar, friendly faces.
Oh, and thanks for not taking the mick toooo much on Sunday.
Hopefully see you at the european event.
-
I agree, thanks a lot to all the APAT team, it was a fantastic event. Your hard work is appreciated.
Daniel, it was good to catch up with you, hope to see you at the European event.
Also sorry for not saying bye on Sunday night to you all. It was hectic so we left as soon as it was over.
Hope to see you all soon ;)
-
If dan didnt take the mick then i certainly did.But you know i was only joking.Great showing cazzaline but i think your fella,s nerves were a bit fraid watching you.I had to keep telling him to keep calm.
-
They weren"t as frayed as they were in Newcastle where she also finished 15th, but it was close ! :o
Still, it"s great being bankrolled by your other half !! ;D
-
But does it make up for the loss of pride of losing to your other half ? any interesting last longer bets where u now have to do chores or anything until the next event?
-
I have no loss of pride, Chris. To be honest, I"m really proud of her for the way she"s picked up the game - long may her success continue, even if it is at the expense of me occasionaly ;D
She"s still behind me in the local league though - just had to get that in !! ;)
-
was only kidding, where is the local league that you play in, im from near halifax and dont think theres anything round here except the rileys king of clubs tournament thats just starting in burnley?
-
I am from Wakefield, and desperate to get some live play in (not casino) we should get together and get a home game going (HaworthBanta I was on your left on the first table)

I"m moving to Wakefield in July Nosey and would happily take some money from you in a home game. ;D

Great to meet you (and your much better poker playing partner!) at the weekend. I was out in 18th and we railed some of the final table together.

Yes, I"m beginning to wish I"d never taught her how to play. ;)
Organising a home game between us sounds like a good idea, I"m sure Caz wont mind taking all of our money. ;D
Anybody fancy a meet in the mean time ? Caz and I are playing at the Gala casino in Bradford this coming Saturday. It"s a £10 freeze out pot limit holdem event - registration from 7:00pm with the game starting at 8:15pm.
Could be fun......?
-
is gala up by the cinema? any idea what starting stacks are and if its house dealt? CHeers Chris
-
Chris, I believe it"s near a cinema. I know it"s next to a Holiday Inn and opposite the Interchange - apologies, I try not to visit Bradford that often, being a simple country boy. ;)
As far as the structure is concerned, Caz and I visited the other week and were given the following info:
Starting stack is 3,000 chips and the blinds start at 50 and 100. The first 2 levels are 30 mins, 15 mins thereafter. Dealers are provided by Gala.
A couple of friends of ours played there last Friday (finishing 2nd and 4th) and said that the blinds were 25 or 30 mins per level. They said that the structure worked ok.
Obviously it"s not up to APAT standard, but it could be a laugh.
-
Wayne and Sir_Percival (sorry, I don"t know your first name), are you up for a visit to Gala ?
-
cheers bantam, will definately be taking a trip over soon to have a game, pretty sure its next to the cinema and hollywood bowl complex, sorry to keep pestering do u know what other nights they run tournies? thanks again Chris
-
No problem Chris.
Just found out, it"s definitely next to the Hollywood Bowl.
Ok, Gala run the following tourneys:
Thursday/Saturday - £10 freeze out (Registration from 7:00pm, 8:15pm start)
Friday - £20 freeze out (Registration from 7:00pm, 8:15pm start)
Sunday - £10 freeze out (Registration from 5:00pm, 6:15pm start)
Be good if we could get a local APAT squad together, with Des providing us with APAT branded shirts !!
-
id be well up for that as im sure my mate would be, i checked gala last year but they werent running tournaments then and i think only napoleons in Bradford was but i havent been there, but Galas easier to get to
-
Don"t go to Napoleans, it"s just an "all in" fest.
I played there last year on the same table as David Lerner, it was carp !
-
Wayne and Sir_Percival (sorry, I don"t know your first name), are you up for a visit to Gala ?
I am up for a game or two, not for next couple of weeks though, very busy. What about gala Leeds? I have a very low bank roll (£5.58) will I get a game with that?

Were in Wakefield are you moving to? (Sir Percival)
-
That"s quite a bankroll you"ve got there Wayne. Not sure what mine is up to, I"ll have to ask Caz ;D
Not played in Leeds, so I"m not sure where the casino is. I too am busy for the next couple of weeks, but a casino trip and/or a home game is something we should pursue.

I can afford to go to Ireland, a hotel room, enter the tournament, food, drink but can not afford a £20 freeze out at the local casino, strange that
;D :D ;D
-
Was it really that cheap in ireland ? ??? ???
-
Just logged onto site for the1st time this week. Would again like to say a big thanks to the gang at APA, another fantastic event and well done to the Fitzwilliam..had my doubts with the no booze rule....but i made up for that. To all the players and lads & lassies, well done and some top drinking......
Brendan, unlucky but well done mate, a inspirational performance...Jaques....well done mate...short stack to top spot...nice one...
See you all soon hopefully.
-
Hey Bantam, any chance a tournament review from Gala when uve played ? thinking of playing tommorrow but not sure yet, Cheers in advance 8)
-
No problem Chris, I"ll start a new thread though.
-
Wayne, I"m moving to Crofton, in July
-
Wayne and Sir_Percival (sorry, I don"t know your first name), are you up for a visit to Gala ?
Ian, I"ve not moved to the area yet but would be interested in meeting up at any casino within a hour of Leeds after July.
Also, what about a home game with you and Cazz and Wayne?
Stuart (18th at Dublin, you can see my picture on the report)
-
I have a niece who lives in Crofton. I live on the other side of Wakefield on the border with Leeds
There is Leeds, Bradford & Sheffield all within 30 mins also there will be DTD in Nottingham which I wouldn't mind going to if you are up for it. I think it opens in September but not sure on that. How about you Ian?
