A friend and I will be playing in the World Amateur Poker Championship Festival, was wondering if anyone else is either in this even or would be interested in going! www.apat.com

Sounds interesting...could well be up for this.
Did you see the bit about a "Team Event" thats just finished? Should have got a FTRUK Dream Team entered. Showed them how the ballas roll (or in my case how the $25nl ballas roll)...

I really wanna go!
Problem is seats go on sale tomorrow, there's only 80-100, how quick do you think they'll go?
I don't think I can get organised by tomorrow to know if I can go.
Eh, if a few FTR'ers go I might go down anyway and just play cash or something.

I dunno how quick they'll go, but I'll be buying mine at 9am sharp. There will obviously be a few who want to sell their tickets in the forum after they've sold out so keep your eyes out if you dont managed to get one.
Not sure where were staying over yet, anyone liek to join us in accommodation?

I'm getting my mum to get my ticket at 9 tonight while I'm out. She is however illiterate with computers so it could be a bit touch and go
Will let ya know if I get in tomorrow.

Found a quote from the guy who actually runs the thing on thehendonmob forum.
Quote:
It's down altogether now and will be reset tomorrow when the support team are back online. It is then likely to be Tuesday before the new DNS is available everywhere, or so I'm told.
There were still some seats left for all events when the site went down, so anyone who has purchased a seat has got it. No need to worry, it's that simple.
|
So the website will be alive again on Tuesday and also it appears my seat is guaranteed

I thought the seats would go a lot faster than they have.

I have double and triple checked and am definitely on the players list, and definitely got my seat while there were still seats left.
Sorry to be a bit paranoid, but its been a week now so I'm a little concerned about this.

Did you have to post this I was hoping they would never charge for the event. Seems a bit stupid they charge nearer the event as ppl obv had money there now to pay, but may not when it goes through next as they don't actually know what date its going to be taken out.

Haha, I guess it did seem like it was being a snitch
It just seemed weird that they charged and then credited back. I had to ask because the account I'm using I normally keep close to empty, so I need to know when I need to have £75 in there.
