LIVE SKY POKER TV TONIGHT *** with Rich and James ***

edited June 2013 in Poker Chat
Afternoon!

Welcome to your show thread for tonight's live 5 hour broadcast. We start at 7 on Ch. 861 and keep going till it's Monday. 

Your hosts?

Me- Richard Orford...

and him- James Hartigan...


At 7 we'll have an hour of live Mastercash and maybe a phone call from Tikay over in Vegas. (Please don't let that put you off, it still should be a good show).

Then from 8 till 12 it's dedicated coverage of The Primo. And rumour has it that for part of it, James and I will swap roles and I'll be the expert. Watch this space for more on this horrific story as it breaks...

Now, here on the show, we thrive on your input. It's not half as fun without your messages- so please keep all your regular stuff coming in, whether it be a question, a main event, mini event or Mastercash hand request or a funny or interesting poker or non-poker message.

Our side topic tonight-

Tikay's odds for the WSOP have been quoted by Sky Bet here.

Suggest some more poker odds/prices!

They might be your serious suggestions or simply humorous.

They can be WSOP related, Sky Poker related, poker related or non-poker related, maybe just topical or funny. Whatever floats your boat.

E.g. 

Julian Thew hitting a one-outer to stay in the main event 5-1

Tikay to be voted worst dressed man in Vegas 3-1

Ryan to win a bracelet 400-1

Any Sky Poker player to have a shotgun Church of ELvis wedding whilst in Vegas 25-1

You get the idea...


Stick everything either on here, via email skyopen@bskyb.com, or tweet it to #skypokertv

And see you tonight at 7!

    Those odds on Thewy are way too long!  Tenner on that please!

    Tikay to mention at any point to people on his table the difference between cement and concrete - 3/10

    Odds on 861 to start projecting adds on Richards forehead 10:1

    Make sure you give Ryan a mention - for those who don't know he is 4th after Day 1 of WSOP Event 40 with 287 remaining.

    Cards go in the air at 1pm Las Vegas time tonight, which I believe is 9pm BST.

    The Brits haven't had a great series so far this summer,  hopefully Scott77 can change this around!


    Oh and as for odds

    "Orford straight" to be inlcuded in the official rank of poker hands anytime soon  - 5000-1
  • edited June 2013

    I am playing Downtown @ Binions @ Noon today, but if Ryan goes very deep in this, & is still in, I'll come bck to the Rio later & do a Live Update for the folks at home.  
  • edited June 2013
    Live update for ryry FTW
    won't be watching tonight
    not enough concrete for me
    but anything that can inspire the poker gods to look favourable on ryry......

  • edited June 2013
    Have a great show guys.

    I'm glad you included recent pictures of yourself & hartigan, although hartigans hasn't changed much over the years and you still have the same expression after winning with 72 off Rich. :)


    Poker Odds - I will be playing the Primo & the mini primo Tonight.............

    What odds will you give me to cash in both?
  • edited June 2013
    ryan towin any bracelet 400/1 looks very tempting 


     have a great show guys 
  • edited June 2013
    Good stuff guys- keep it coming please. We're live in 90 minutes!
  • edited June 2013
    Good evening both Richard & James

    I will be watching all night from 7pm until midnight - and am going to donate in the cash, main, mini and CJ tournament. lol

    Should be a cracker and looking forward to the show - just not sure who the "expert" is.. lol

    Poker Odds:

    POKEY2011 aka Chris Jones to not have an alcoholic drink during an SPT weekend : 1,000,000,000 / 1

    TIKAY to not mention while at the tables anything to do with cement, tarmac, trains, bridges, aircraft etc.... 1,000,000,000 / 1

    On a serious note - good luck to all in Vegas and hope that a few cashes and a bracelet are brought back - would have loved to be their myself had I used a condom 4 years ago lol - will definitely go in the next 50 years.

    Lol

    An ode to Sky Poker!

    I’m in my favourite poker room, sitting at the table
    Keeping myself cool, as much as I am able.
    Knowing when to call and knowing when to fold.
    Knowing when to raise because I’m feeling bold.

    Picking up my hole cards and waiting for the flop,
    Full House, aces high – now’s not the time to stop!
    Wow!  I’ve got another ace, no bluffing needed here,
    No need to fold, nothing at all to fear. 

    Perfection is four aces and I’m going to win this pot.
    I think I like playing poker, I like it quite a lot.
    I like piling up my poker chips and making my oppos shake.
    The best is winning when I’ve nothing and knowing I have to fake.

    As i have composed all of this i think you should give me a free entry to the Primo;)

    Odds of TommyD not being on a TV table 100/1
    Odds of Defectors never being mentioned ever again 1000/1
    Odds of someone mentioning hanged monkies tonight Evens
    Odds of someone nursing a huge hangover when SPT Newcastle starts  1/1000

    I've managed to get into the Primo tonight for £2.60 so I'm treating it as a freeroll :)  Might as well enter the mini too so I can take down the jackpot, well it would be rude not too as it's on offer :)

    Run well all and have fun

    Good Evening James and New Analyst.

    I'm loving the new analyst's style - it's fresh, flat and thin - much like his hair.

    Could I ask his thoughts on Polarizing peoples ranges through over betting, or implied odds.

    Talking of Odds - TRIP5 and SAMANTHA25 - Very

    Giant811 and Greghogg - Fairly.

    Richard to buy PenFifteen a beer at an SPT event - Name your price.

    Can I get a tip from the new presenters as to good films to watch?  

    Enjoying the show as always boys - well done.

    Pen Fifteen

    Question for your 'expert'....

    Hi guys,

    Can you show this hand from about 5 mins ago on Mastercash 3 plz

    Is this a great fold, or am I just from nitsville?

    I didn't c-bet the flop because it just smashes a lot of people's calling ranges pre and I'm just gonna get check/raised loads and hate life. Then the turn card just makes me hate life even more...

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for showing my table for a few hands, especially managing to squeeze in that KK v QQ cooler lol but could you show the hand I posted :)

    Felt like a really horrible spot, folding feels horrible, but doing anything else feels equally horrible.
