New Season Just Started – Choose Your Venues
Fall Season ‘10 started August 1st and ends November 30th, and it is a great time to plan ahead at which venues you want to play in for the new season.
There is a venue to meet your specific needs. The APC has smoking venues, non-smoking venues, and some, a mixture of both. You have choices of locations in Atlanta, to Loganville, to Braselton, in other words, most areas around the Atlanta area – North and South.
Where To Play is a list of venues on the left lower side of the Leaderboard page. Take a look at the venues in your area!
We add new venues often and we always have a blog and a forum post to let you know the latest news. We also try to update you with the Latest APC News at the top of the Leaderboard page.
The calendar will give you the events a month at a glance, and in each venue entry it will give you a phone number and address of the location and a link to directions. The APC venues are listed on Google maps.
We have large venues with 50+ players where you can rack up points with just one win! Then we have the smaller venues of 20+ players where the atmosphere is more relaxed but if you win, the points earned are less than venues with the larger number of players. Some players feel it is easier to make the Top 10 at the smaller venues and if they can only play once a week, they will choose a small venue. Point is, you have choices to meet your needs.
We have APC online every Sunday night where you can compete in the regular online game that starts at 8:30 p.m., or the Heads Up game at 8:45 p.m. You can register and play in both at the same time! Please join us in the online league!
Most players work toward earning a seat in the Grand Championship, and here is a look at the qualifiers of the Grand Championship (GC) for Summer Season ‘10, and the Top 10 at every qualified venue at the end of the season earns a seat for the GC.
We also have a Yearly Championship Tournament that combines the winners of three seasons, and the Top Points Earner at each venue automatically qualifies for the Yearly Championship Tournament. Take a look at the last Yearly Championship Tournament qualifications.Some players think it is easier to earn points at the smaller venues but the competition is just as tough.

Thank you for playing with the APC, and good luck in choosing your venues for the new season! We hope you have fun, make new friends, play good poker, and take your game to a new level!
Venue Championships – Summer Season ‘10
At the end of every season, the top 10 players on each night at every venue that has played 8 times, will play in the Championship at that venue. These are the players who have been consistent all season. The competition is tough, and the winner will receive an engraved silver coin. These Championship games take place between August 1 and August 7.
As an added bonus, the top 10 in points at each qualified venue will play in the Grand Championship for Summer Season ‘10, and the winner of the silver coin will automatically be in the Yearly Championship!
