Just a "nod" to those who get asked to send in hand reviews, & describe their game-play.
The Mentors are quite sharp, & know how many beans make five. So sending in hands where you flopped happy won't cut much ice with them, unless the point you are making is how you skillfully extracted max value from the situation.
Neither should you be troubled if you send in a hand you lost, or had to Pass. We hear about Hero Calls all day & night, but Hero Passes are just as important.
I don't actually know exactly what the Mentors are looking for, & it's actually not my problem. But I'm pretty sure if I were a mentor, the points above would matter to me.
If you have any general questions about Total Player, put them on this Thread, & someone will reply as bestestest as they can.

Total Player Interview - Glitterbabe
Hi
Delighted to be picked, this is a fantastic opportunity like the rest of the guys said so I am looking forward to it. I know a lot of people probably don't recognise me or have not played with me so I'm a little surprised that I got through but it just shows if you do things right it can happen from any category. I'm not experienced and will probably be the youngest left but I believe in my skills and I'm going to give it my best.
At the very least it will be a pleasure to learn from Ed and the rest of the Sky players, hopefully I can take it all on board and go far.
Good luck to everyone else trying to make it. Looking forward to the next stage.
Nick.
Seriously, it was bugging me for a while "where do I know that voice from?" lol
We had quite a few of us from 'Camp Ed' there eh...... that's how he'll now be known btw.... Camp Ed!
Nice to meet you too Dan.....thought u was a local lad. Hope all 6 of us can support each other as well as competing. Should be a fun and very tough few weeks ahead.
I'd like to see TheGrudge up there and Alex McWhinney (sp?) the Pianoplaya.
And if you wanted a court jester......
There is still time - just! The Week 5 picks are revealed this Saturday, which leaves next week as the 6th & Final week of "regular" picks. It is possible that there will be one or two no-shows or replacements of the original eighteen picks of course.
As to "picking" names, well they kind of pick themselves, by the established pre-qualifying criteria.
The twelve picks so far & a great mix, & there was a tremendous TP buzz in Newcastle at the SPT, aided by 4 of them being there, & a fifth getting the nod that night!
enjoyed the show saturday
hopeing to get on again was alittle gutted not getting picked but just makes me more determined to try harder
thanks to ed and rich for the kind words on the show
cheers sara36dd
From what Dohhh has told me, its the top 50 cash winnings players of each level, per week?
Say in one week I won £500 on the 20/30/40nl levels but in the same week I lost £200 on the 50/100nl levels, would the profit from the lower levels be affected?
How do I know if I've been selected? How long does it have left to run?
Cheers my dears.
Aup Scotty, the last seection period, started on Thursday and runs until Wednesday - Anything u win in that week at low stakes (NL30 and below), or your net profit, will hopefully get you into the top ten in that catagory, then hopefully they will give you the call on tuesday/wednesday next week....
When I was selected I was playing almost only NL50, with occasional games at NL20 and 30 for mastercash etc, so I think my winnings at NL50 were counted, they must have been. As long as u play 7 individual sessions at low stakes you should be alright - and you do that all at one time! - not certain though.
GL, DOHH

His turn call is very fishy, on the river what's he folding that bet pot on the turn? He's only ahead of a lower flush draw that he beats by checking and can AK/AQ fold to his effective shove of £152?
