This sites goal is to provide easy access to official Atlanta Poker Club information and to serve as a compliment to the ever popular Atlanta Poker Club Forum.
We understand that unless you visit the APC Forum nearly every day that it is virtually impossible to keep up with everything, and many times some important announcements and information gets buried underneath the massive amounts of posts.
