Love this man, Chris, & thanks for Posting it, as it reminded me of good times.
I had the good fortune to be sat next to him in a WSOP $1,500 PLO8 event.
From the very get-go, he was LOUD, giving it the whooping & hollering, & he seemed, to me, a bit ott.
Then a good friend of mine, James Dempsey, aka Flushy, who was also playing the event, came across & introduced us, as James & Dwyte are good mates.
And from then on, I came to realise this guy was a great guy, tremendous fun.
He was, not to be rude, HOPELESS @ PLO8, but he readily admitted it - in fact he confessed to me that he had never played PLO8 before!
He's a proper dude, wears all the bling, & is seriously loud, but underneath that, he is a genuinely lovely chap. We have kept in touch, & I'm hoping to hook up with him in Vegas this year. If I do, I'll get a photo, & Post it on here.
And this guy is some character, he really is.
So pleased you posted it, bought back some great memories, thank you.

Well finally getting round too the request for Tom Dwan, watching vids on him as I type this, interesting character, which im sure most have heard of.
with tournament earnings of over $2.6mil and ranked 284th in the all time money rank which is only 875,394 places in front of me... (ill get there.)
he has a talent for such a young player at the age of 27.
here is a link too his views on poker.
http://youtu.be/Bs1ltZOc99Y
he has a good read on the game, known too be aggressive but still very carefull, can make decisions some people wouldn't, but hey that's why he is sat in the seats others dream of
http://youtu.be/GI9uIO1E21c
Toms biggest cash to date is $447.844 which was recently in the 2014 Aussie Millions Poker Championship, Melbourne which he came 6TH.
But not the biggest that he has made on CASH!!!
Love this hand he plays here with one of theeee if not the BIGGEST name in HOLD'EM and probally every poker players dream to have a hand run like this against this man!

"I know what you have!!!!"
This link was sent too me as a P.M, from watto84 and thank you for it because it is a fantastic clip,
anyone ever had this happen too them I know I have, but it didn't play out anywhere near like this.
http://youtu.be/sKsV6oqZW38
weve all done it, miby, if you've played live, miby online, letting the time bar run down everytime calling off no raising when u have the absaloute nuts.....
HOLLYWOODING!!!!!!
Now this guy is the most cringe worthy poker player I have watched I love this clip!!
Anyone tried this and got paid?????
http://youtu.be/y7n8n2WFEMw
haven't been on top of it as much as when I started but back on top for now.
Just having a scroll through youtube, and came across this hand,
it's nothing too special but couldn't help think if it wasn't a pro, and it was a beginner would it have ended so friendly, if it was online you know your watching that chatbox explode with abuse!
I have always said though from the beginning never to moan about other peoples hands, its their money, its their hand, its their choice, and if your good enough u have to know when too slow down, and miby know u might be behind, can u get away from this though.. probally not.
but never blame anyone else or moan about their play if u do lose.
enjoy the game, if you aint enjoyin it, don't pl

WHATCH WHAT YOU SAY, IN LIVE PLAY!!
SO having a look around youtube today and came across this, I was initially looking for a slow roll, but that will be tomorrow I think.
this one is for the online players who might not play live quite a lot, 1st rule say before you touch your chips...... be careful what you say though!!!!!!
http://youtu.be/oSlhaTSt3s4
Keep up the good work Chris, one of these days I will catch up with the rest of these clips....will be a lot of lurkers following this thread.
Its been awhile, but back with some more.
Looking through some clips tonight whilst playing some small stakes DYM's and came across this hand.
could anyone fold here... although he only has one card in the deck too hot he prob thinks there is a lot more.
I know im not.. but I never fold

Good Work!

TONY TIKAY KENDALL
For this link, I wanted to do someone from sky, a presenter..... so between Orford and Tikay was much thought, but what too write about Orford..... with his biggest cash being the 2.20 @ 2.20 there wouldn't be much on it.... maybe in a few years
Of course it would have to be Tikay, 'the fountain of knowledge'
Tikay took early retirement in about 2003, and played the Pro Circuit around Europe with Thewy for a few years.
Did a stint with Sporting Bet as Site Pro/Ambassador.
Did a few years with Wm Hill, on their TV Poker Show, Poker 425, & organised land-based satellite qualifiers for the Wm Hill Late Night Poker Series.
Tikay went to Vegas with them, and entered him into a $1,000 NLH event and cashed for around $7,000.
Was recruited by Poker Night Live as a TV Analyst, alongside the likes of Kara Scott.
Tikay's most important thing for poker was being a co-founder for APAT (Amateur Poker Association and Tour)
you could type all day about tikay, it was him sent me most of this information, but so many achievments in the last 10 years never mind before.
Last year tikay won - the winner of the category for Best Contribution to Growing/Promoting Poker.
and well deserved this is!!!
As most of you know, tikay is more fond of 4card format plo8, and tirelessly helps people like myself understand this game,
he has over $300.000 in live earnings with his biggest live win being
$45,969 in 2006.
He is a foundation of sky poker, and goes out too help others at all costs no matter who or what he is there giving advice about all walks of life. He will where he can point you in the right direction without hesitation or a moan is always there on the forum helping wherever and whoever he can.
THANK YOU TIKAY!!!

Ha, thank you Chris.
"....you could type all day about tikay, it was him sent me most of this information..."
I should add that Chris asked me to send him the info, & had to nudge me once or twice to send it, as I felt a little uncomfortable doing so.
Anyway, at least it was not Orford.
why?
enjoyed doing this, although how long does it take for pic approval
Phil Ivey revealed that Tony Kendall would be his representation in a similar lawsuit in the US Courts. In appreciation for Kendall's efforts - Ivey purportedly gifted Tony a $$65,000 model train set, one of the largest collections in the world and a lifelong passion of Kendall's.
