Register for the APAT UK Championships Tonight
Speaking of the Vic, the 2nd leg of the 2010 APAT season takes place at the Vic on the 17th of April. Seats for the Amateur UK Championship go on sale tonight and like all APAT events, it’s likely this one will sell out within the hour, so get ready to set your timer and click refresh. To register for the £75 main event you will need a Betfair Poker account and you can register in the tournament lobby at 9pm.

If you register your Betfair Poker account via UK Pokernews, you will be eligible for a $1,500 sign up bonus and some exclusive Pokernews money added tournaments.
