APAT Team Champs - Luton 22 / 23 October

Anyone else interested or thinking about coming?

The APAT UK Team Championship for Season Five will be held at the G Casino in Luton on October 22nd & 23rd, 2011.

This event will again feature teams of 8 players, with 50% of the prize pool and National Medals going towards individual prizes, while the other 50% of the prize pool, plus the title and Championship Cup will be going towards the Team Championship.

The entry fee per player will be £50, with no registration fee being charged.  The event will consist of twenty-five teams of eight players per team.


It will be a two day, 10,000 chip deepstack with a 45 minute clock as with all APAT National Championship events.


As mentioned above, I am organising both the ILPP and Betfair Forum teams - I can confirm, the £50 buy in will be paid for by the ILPP & Betfair respectively

About 2pm ish - maybe later. Last year started around 2.30.

I came to watch Vaino at the recent Dusk till Dawn team comp and ended up playing and was lucky enough to be in the winning team.

Great teams. Looks like a 1:2 for Betfair/ILPP.
That or 1st 2 teams out.
Enjoy.

I'm definitely in, thanks Dinos. Will e-mail you my details later, thanks :o)

Thanx dinos you've made the A team even stronger, despite last times first out being our captain. We should have some sort of challenge between the 2 teams, with the losing team buying the victors a drink. Though it might be difficult to get trips to the bar.

team a cant b that good, im in it.

let me get this straight ... i moved your friend mistergain (who was a winner at the Betfair Forum games, into our team in exchange for captain dud spud, and your team got stronger?


Wasnt "Capt Dud Spud" in the winning team at the Betfair Forum Game?

I hear we aren't getting t-shirts?  I am a bit surprise Betfair arent going to provide anything, although I realise we are freerolling here but we dont want to look like the poor cousins do we?  Has anyone got any contacts  for getting some made up?  Bearing in mind the Team Champs thread on the APAT Forum says "Teams participating will be required to provide team shirts for their players and carry a thread and banner about the event on their forum."

Shame bf havent got any of them hoodies left!  [:(]

Guys/Girls - Whilst I do see your point re the tops, it is a Forum team and not intended as an official  Betfair team. Last year Betfair asked us to enter a team and we used criteria to set the team up and hence we got half of the buy in and tops.

It is probably all my fault for not making this clear sooner, but just to shed some light on the subject - iliketrips contacted me to let me know about the apat team event and to see if I would enter a team for ILPP this year. When I applied I also asked APAT if i could also enter a (Betfair) forum team. There was no obligation or involvement at all by Betfair - it was intended to be made up of Betfair forumites.

I then asked Betfair if they would contribute as the team and in my opinion they were generous enough to give us the option of sponsored tops or paying the buy in. I opted to go with the buy in. I was then informed that Betfair were expecting some memorabilia to come in and if it arrived in time, they would send it through - but they could not promise. I think we have to be fair here and appreciate what we have been given and not direct any criticism for what we didnt get. 


I am happy to organise you tops - will cost about £15-20 depending on choice. If you all agree to pay for your own, I will get them made for you so decide and let me know what style - see link below (could captain dud spud and AJ Cairns) please choose a style bearing in mind Sussexgirl is as the name suggests a saucy lassy [:p] - and inbox me your sizes

I think that's a good option HF.

My team will be in ILPP T-shirts though :)
