Tonight's live show special: THE CASH GAME RELOADED with Rich, Ross and guests Sam Grafton and Simon

Haha - you got to the spelling error before I could post about it, Rich!

Hopefully the Cash Game: Reloaded tonight is a little better than The Matrix: Reloaded, and that your director's commentary includes some nice little tidbits of information that we are generally not party to as viewers. You know - stunt work, who gets the biggest trailer on set, and what it's really like to work with the legend that is TK.

RICHORFORD

Afternoon all,

Got a good 'un for you tonight. Something a little bit different. And if you've been enjoying our live Cash Game series, you're going to love this.

THE CASH GAME: RELOADED

If you remember, at the end of Season 2 I hosted a show which was dedicated to looking back at the highlights of that series with two of the players who took part in it: Redmond Lee and Neil Channing.

It made for one of our most popular shows ever with, for the first time ever, a unique opportunity to get the thoughts of each of the players involved in a hand as it plays out.

There is nowhere else you can see this. It's kind of like the director's commentary on the DVD extras of a film. All the commentary from the actual show will be removed and we'll take live commentary from the boys in the studio.

Well, tonight- we do it again! This time with THREE of the players!

On the couch with me will be Ross Jarvis, Sam Grafton
and Simon Hemsworth.

They'll be looking back at the Cash Game Season 3 which has just finished airing on Sky Sports. And you can see it here.

We'd love you to take part in this show as well.

So please post your...

QUESTIONS FOR THE LADS!

Any Cash Game questions? Any general questions?

The best ones will get a seat into next Tuesday's Turbo Open.

We might take some Mastercash hands tonight as well, depending on time, so feel free to send your requests in.

But don't worry, we're still going to run our...

TURBO TUESDAY LAST LONGER COMPETITION!

So post your interest in that below- the winner will get a free seat into Thursday's Sky Sports Bounty Hunter.

See you at 7! :-)

Brian, watching paint dry would be better than The Matrix Reloaded. And if you don't believe me, ask Tikay. I feel pretty sure that watching paint or cement dry is probably one of the many ways he genuinely kicks back at home.

I know. It is more than a little disappointing, because I was getting used to having Sarah Champion on Tuesday evenings*

I think we can all agree that matrix revolutions was the worst though.   Hes blind but he isnt blind?!  What is up with that?

Last longer please

Good afternoon all.  First of all, in for the last longer please.

I wish I had Ross's discipline and could fold a set of sixes.  I went out of the turbo open last week on the 7th hand after flopping a set of sixes  Oh well, live and learn .  Even though I don't play much cash I enjoyed watching the cash games and can't wait to hear the reasoning behind some of the plays.

MrStarch1

Let's be honest, all Matrix sequels are HORRENDOUS. 

But NOT tonight's show - that will be the opposite of horrendous....it will be tremendous! 

I'm seriously looking forward to it, even though 99% of the talk will probably revolve around me stupidly folding a set to Tim Slater in Ep 4. Oh well. 

If you want to take the pi** out of me too then make sure you EMAIL TWEET AND FORUM POSTERISE in tonight. Go on, you can win free stuff too  

See you from 7pm! 

Ross

If it makes you feel any better, Ross, it is not nearly as bad as Neil Channing laying down a straight to the single possible hand that could have beaten him, in the last series, against Rob Yong (who was, of course, bluffing).

Thanks for the consolation prize. That Channing hand did seem weird but, it's often unfair IMO to criticise plays without at least hearing an explanation for why that player did a certain thing. 

And of course, it's not who wins the hands with skill in that matter....it's who wins the flips of course! And I won one of those so it was all good

I can honestly say that the last installments of 'cash game reloaded' were the best thing I've ever seen on Sky Poker, in terms of the pure value and learnings I was able to leech off the show.

And I've been watching for more than 2 months now

In for last longer. 

Both Matrix sequels had some nice touches and are great to skip through.....but the plot turned to garbage!!!!!

Can you ask the experts what adjustments they will make vs a very aggressive HU player? Calling lighter/floating on the flop? 3betting wider IP pre? I am sometimes overwhelmed by players who are seemingly fearless in HU pots.

Also, in a 100bb cash game vs tight postflop opponents is it worth playing suited connectors/small pairs from the blinds to a single raise, or should I be letting these hands go unless I am getting good implied odds from multiple opposition? Does this change if we are 200bb deep?

A lot of the regulars I am playing with at the moment are looking to pot control with any hand under TPTK once called on the flop. What is my best strategy to exploit these players?

Good questions. Am sure Richard Orford will pass them on to the good players on the sofa. I'll just be off-camera drinking water while Sam and Simon talk.

Thanks for all the posts so far everyone.

Keep those questions coming please.

Oh, if you want to do a quick bit of last-minute revision on the Cash Game, or look up a specific hand to refresh yor memory before asking the chaps about it...

YOU CAN WATCH EVERY EPISODE OF THE SKY POKER CASH GAME HERE

in for d last longer please!!

WOW......what a line up tonight.

THE best presenter there has ever been on TV........Richard Bacon.

THE best looking bloke called Ross as his side kick....Ross Kemp.

Together with IMO the two greatest up and coming poker players in the uk today.....Sam Trickett & Simon Deadman. It should be some show!

On a serious note, my question about cash play. I began playing poker about 6/7 years ago just playing on line cash.I will be totally honest and admit I crashed and burned big time. I then switched to tournaments very quickly and tried to improve my game/results. I am now just about a break even player and not really gone back down the cash game route. However, everyone keeps saying that if you are serious about making money in poker then it is 'cash for dough/tournaments for show'......so

.....will my improved game now help me go back into cash or should I totally begin again with a cash play mentality and forget how I play tournaments or can you have a mix of both?

Haha - that absolutely was serious, mate

DOHHHHHHH

Great lineup.

Q) Heads up displays aren't allowed on Sky Poker, but if they were what 3 or 4 key statistics would the guests find most useful when multi tabling lower stakes MTTs when it's hard to pay a lot off attention to each individual table?

In for the last longer please.
