APAT Regional Championship - April 5th

[DesD]

The 4th leg of the APAT Regional Championship will be played live at twelve casinos across the United Kingdom on April 5th and at one on April 12th. Entry Buy-ins will be available direct from the casinos on the day of play, or via pre-registration (through phone or by calling into the casino) from Saturday March 29th. All seats are allocated subject to availability. Please confirm casino opening time and event start time with your local casino when pre-registering your event as times are subject to change. Generally, the casinos open at 12.30pm, with play starting at 2.30pm on the day of play (Walsall 1.30pm open / 3.30pm start). The entry fee will be £20.00 and the events will be registration fee free. Tournaments Regional Championship events will hold a maximum of 80 players. Players will start each event with 3,000 chips and the event will run to an APAT structure (without the 150 / 300 level) with 30 minute levels. The 150 / 300 level has been omitted to ensure these events complete comfortably on one day. The final two tables and the final table will be dealer dealt, so players should come prepared to self deal for a significant part of the tournament. Prizes The top nine players will win APAT Ranking Points. If you finish in the top nine, please ensure the casino note your name for points allocation. The top three in each Regional Championship event will win Gold, Silver & Bronze Medals. The top 10% of finishers will gain a £75 entry to the Scottish Amateur Poker Championship from the prize pool. The event is being held at the Gala Maybury Casino in Edinburgh on May 3rd & 4th. The top 10% of finishers will gain a share of the remaining prize pool. All monies will be paid out. Additional Notes Refunds will not be offered where seats to National events are won and then not claimed. Players will have the option to claim a credit to gain a seat at one of the next four APAT National events of similar buy in value or members will be able to advertise the seat for sale on the APAT Seat Exchange board at face value. APAT will only ratify seat exchanges that have gone through this board. Contact Customer Services ([email protected]) in all cases. Due to a scheduling clash, leg 4 will take place at Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham one week after all other venues. In the spirit of APAT, players will be able to participate at Dusk Till Dawn and one other leg 4 event if they choose. However, players will not be able to claim two sets of Ranking points or two National Championship seats. A player's single best result will count should either eventuality occur. Players will be able to claim prize money and medals at either event.
