Bluffing Katja Thater with three high and showing it. She has one hell of a glare on her!

Have a great show guys

Now, to the best of my knowledge, there's no major soccer match on Thursday night, so you have NO excuse not to join us for our next five-hour live show. The fun begins at 7pm on 861, and at 10pm on Sky Sports 4.

And here's what we've got planned for you lovely people...

7pm - An hour of Sit & Go coverage (celebrating Double Rewards)

8pm - The Poker Clinic (please send in hands and strategy questions)

9pm - Top of the Pots

10pm - Sixty minutes of live Master Cash hands

11pm - Highlights from the £15k Sky Sports Bounty Hunter

Analysing the action is...

Redmond 'lolufold' Lee!

***UPDATE: As I'm on my sick bed, Mr Orford will be handling proceedings tonight. So, expect a brand new show topic. Richard, it's over to you!***

Im sure we've had this topic before.  I think Orford got there ahead of you a few weeks back...

I said something about my biggest achievement being cashing in my first ever live poker event - SPT Notts.

I won a free BH seat... but low and behold I wasn't free that night so gave it up to someone else...

My greatest poker achievement?

Serious answer: winning the Sunday side event at my first SPT in Newcastle last month.

Bluff answer: a dealer named Katie

That's EXACTLY the kind of answer I'm looking for!!!

 I laughed so much when I remembered how funny my greatest poker achievement was, I forgot what it was--- now it's obscure

oynutter

Actually--- It was being shown on the final table of the open when Norman Pace said---"OYNUTTER!-- What a great name" ---- great comedian--- and one of my comic heros----- still very funny-- but somewhat obscure these days.

Oh good - Top of th Pot... ZZZ-Zzzz-Zzzzzz

Nicking my show topics, James?  I'd be really hacked off if it wasn't due to hero-worship. So, I'll let you off.

Can you get Redmond to say "Yo, Mr. White! Yeah poker! B****!" as many times as possible throughout the show?

Thanks.

Viewing figures are likely to be huge this evening.

Are you sure?

Our colleagues at Sky Sports have their own ideas...

Slipwater

I don't like the sport either, James - give me a spot of tennis any day - but perhaps 'Soccer Saturday' is so-called purely for the alliterative quality. Otherwise they'd have to stick it on a Friday

Please explain why its called football as they hardly ever use their feet to kick the ball !
Haven't our American friends enough imagination to come up with an original name of their own?

No.

TeddyBloat

Football is the name for the great global sport that the US calls 'soccer'.

Grid-Iron is the term to be used for the sport that is the American Watered Down Version of Rugby. 

Please stick to these definitions in future...

Cheers, 

TEDDY

To be fair, Teddy, the guys in the NFL hit a lot harder than those who play rugby.

Lol, they have helmets and shoulder pads to protect the big Jessies lol

Slipwater

There are no sportsmen in the world who are 'bigger Jessies' than the footballers who writhe around on the grass in pain, claiming broken ankles/legs/fingers/necks when the breeze from someone on the other team hits them.

I'm comparing them to rugby players not footballers

Posted by macapaca

Well, at least we agree about who the bigger girls are...

J-Hartigan

At the risk of stating the obvious, they wear "helmets and shoulder pads" for a reason.

If the players didn't wear body armour, there would be at least three deaths per game.

And that's probably a conservative estimate!

FCHD

They won't need them for much longer, with the powers that be trying to legislate defense out of the game.

Arguably, it's taken the league far too long to acknowledge the legacy of brain injuries and suicides that this violent sport has created.

I think it's incredibly hard to find the right balance, and would agree that the referees sometimes err on the side of caution. But, overall, I think the league is taking the right attitude towards helmet-to-helmet hits.

J-Hartigan

Right, I'm done here. I imagine Orford will show up soon.

I have one last thing to say...

SOCCER!
