Question for the yoyo -_- What comes first poker or the family ? I ask this question because it must be hard to balance life with the sometimes unsociable hours of poker. Posted by rancid
Pretty obv... think he'd be shot if he picked one of the options
So pleased to see you there Anna, now that Sky has their new Ambassador I feared that you had been consigned to the Sky "recycle bin" - don't understand why they need a new Ambassador while they have you.
Q for Julien in the same vein - when sky hire their "new professional" - which they will eventually do in good mega-corporation fashion - will it be a "phew" from Thewy or an "Oh-No" from yoyo
Thought i would let you both know, so you get it right when you see me on the final table of the 12k b/h also am going to try for the jackpot tonight. Got into the 12k in the first £7.20 semi at around 1 o'clock this afternoon was only 4 runners so was nice and easy
Had a good result on Tuesday finshed 6th in the 5k b/h
My question for Julian, which I would like Anna to read out is.....
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck If a woodchuck could chuck wood? He would chuck, he would, as much as he could, And chuck as much as a woodchuck would If a woodchuck could chuck wood.
my question for Julian, once poker inevitable follows the path of boxing, it is after all pugalism of the mind, what entrance music will Julian take his table seat to? Heavy Gangster Rap Music with a lot of "YO-YO, Cards are my game, gonna take you out the Frame, Chips taken from your Hand, Your Game is so BLAND, you see I'm a wizard, I'm A psychic I'm a Mystic, so sit back and admire, this aint going to the wire cus i'm off to a flyer and your game is so DIRE.....YO YO !!"
Just a suggestion!

PS Knocking out Liv Booree??? Rather Knock Her Up!!!
Out of both at the same time. In the mini my pocket 9's get done by KJ against a lose guy that has been pushing all night. Then like 2 hands later in the main i get AK in the bb a player pushes i cal he has A10 obvs hits his 3 outer...now im on full tilt so push the very next hand with AJ and run into KK.
Anna, D'ya fancy reading mine out before 11pm cos I can't watch past then
Always great to see Thewy on the show and I got a question for him, or a couple related to the same thing... What do you think of the likeness of your portrait in DTD? Flattering or not so much?
Now for one that hopefully he hasn't been asked before... What was your first big purchase following a big poker win? Car? Holiday? Present for the other half?
What are your "what if" hands? eg a key hand that you won that effected your career (either tournament win or made something click) and a big hand that you lost that you think cost you a big tournament bink/opportunity
I'm not a fan of the show on Sky Sports because my posts are never read unless a) they're not mean (and where's the fun in that?) and b) they're related to actual poker and not something weird. lol
Anyway, I have a bona fide poker question, prompted by an earlier hand. I might post it on the poker clinic next week if it doesn't fit the remaining time this evening. It's something that comes up alot on the forum.
Good evening Miss Fowler, Mr Rutter and Mr Thew. I hope you're all well.
I have a question regarding continuation-bet sizing.
During an earlier hand, the pre-flop raiser flopped top-pair top-kicker, heads-up on a board with two hearts. He c-bet, in position, for half-pot. The chaps stated their preference for a larger bet because a larger bet would be called just as often as this smaller bet.
In this situation I would make the same half-pot bet because, as a player with a wide pre-flop raising range, I will be c-betting with nothing a lot of the time and feel I need to balance that with my made hands - If I want to bluff for half-pot, I feel compelled to c-bet the same with my value hands unless the board's really, really wet.
So how important is range balancing and how should your pre-flop range affect your c-bet sizing?
hi guys could you please tell me what time the spt london tournament starts on saturday 23 march as i cant find it on the site thankyou Posted by adamw1ns
I don't think they'll be able to answer this on the show this evening. They're not allowed to "sell the product" on Sky Sports.
Good to see Julian on the show as well as Stuart - Missed most of it tho - so will he be on again and was just wondering what they thought of books if it hasnt already come up
I,ve never read a book since school , but haver just started reading The mental game and 1 hand at a time volume 2 (MTT,s) (on my 2nd reading - gr8 book )

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck
If a woodchuck could chuck wood?
He would chuck, he would, as much as he could,
And chuck as much as a woodchuck would
If a woodchuck could chuck wood.
Q for Stu & Julien Thew : re staking poker players into live MTT.
In the event of an added prize of an entry into a future MTT
valued at £500+ being given to the winner how would you deal with dividing this ?.
Percentage of its value £500+ or winnings ; if any , of the MTT if the player went on to cash ?.
Looking forward to a good nights analysis.
Have a good show.
All the best
When in a pot, how much to you adjust poker odds for "the Thew run good effect?"
Finally, how big a win would you need to get to buy new trainers and a new scarf?
Matt
