Powder Poker Reloaded

How about this then a trimmed down budget conscious version aimed more at those who are in it for the socialising and less for the skiing:
  • Mt Buller
  • Friday 2nd - Sat 3rd September. Yes it's out of peak but there will be snow if the weather stays this way, also the World Aerials will be on the following week so they will be making snow. Off peak means less people and cheaper prices
  • Stay on the mountain in a lodge. I've previously stayed at http://www.aeski.com.au/ the place is fine and will cost $125 for the two nights stay.
  • Each put in some petrol money and con the person with the biggest car into driving us all to Mansfield at bottom of mountain. The cars can be left there for the weekend and we can be taken by bus up the mountain $40 return. Last bus up on Friday night leaves at 9.30pm so we may have to get out of work early. For details and timetable see http://www.buslines.com.au/mmbl/
  • 2 day lift ticket costs $165, 1 day costs $85
  • Cant remember how much equipment hire is but I dont think it's more than $50 a day
  • The lodge has a kitchen so you can bring all your own food and tipple

So for a Fri-Sat night stay with only one day of skiing it's going to cost about $300-$400 max. What do you say?

The APT is set once again to expand its dates and venues into 2006. Coming up in the New Year, a new casino, the Mont Albert Club (run by the father of an APT board member) or the Mac Daddy for short (yeah you know that’s funny, its ok to laugh, laugh dammit!). However, the first round of the APT 2006 schedule is set for Friday Night 6/1/06 at 7pm . No venue has yet been put forward, however the ever increasing popularity of the APT should mean a venue is not far behind. Please post on venue availability and personal availability. This will also be the final time Be(linda) will be playing with us before her move to the European Poker Tour, based out of London . It will also be the last time Amanda has a chance to win before she becomes a year older (and realises life is no longer worth living like the rest of us).

Welcome to the Australian Poker Tour (APT). This is in no way affiliated with the World Poker Tour, or any other Poker Tour. It's just a group of guys and gals who play poker a couple of times a week, in Australia , at different locations (hence the tour part). However we will try and bring you all the glitz, glamour, prizes, surprises, bad beats and hot streaks that surround our humble game. The name of the game is No Limit Texas Hold'em - The Cadillac of Poker. Where fortunes can be won or lost in a single hand. This is the Australian Poker Tour.
