I've just had a phone call from Brian @ Titan Poker. He apologised for the lengthy delay in contacting me about my big win. Apparently it has been caused by the girl who looks after the VIPs and Sponsored Players (Team Titan) being in Australia with the team for the Aussie Millions. I was assured though that I would be contacted shortly after she returns and that I would be offered the choice of EPT Events although certain ones - the ones where there will be a strong Titan presence at - would be recommended to me.
Now back onto more of the normal stakes stuff ...
Last night I played the $2000 Tourney on BlueSq just to keep me amused whilst I read and constantly refreshed the APAT Forum. At 11pm we were down to 350 and I saw that it was gonna take around another 60-90 minutes to make the money ($2) at 200. With prizes only being reasonably worthwhile at top 10 ($80) I predicted a 2am finish if I went the distance. Julia was just going to bed when I was dealt 88 and faced an All-In for all my chips pre-flop. I called thinking that if I won this hand I'd be in the top 10 in chips and if I lost it would be an early bed. I lost to QQ and an early night it was. No problem!
I was reading and posting on the Forum all day yesterday throughout APAT Welsh Amateur Championship. Leading the way with only 38 remaining after day 1 is Poker Player, Poker Presenter and Model Liv Boeree - website def worth a look (www.livboeree.com)!
One of my picks for the Gold Medal Wayne 'ThePiranha' Gardiner says that it was just not fair that he had to be sat beside her for 3 hours yesterday. I really feel for you Wayne ... !
Day 2 lines up to be every bit as exciting as yesterday. I'll be here keeping track of it all through Tighty's excellent updates at http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=1042.0
