    Hi all,

     

    We're live tonight on Sky Poker TV 7pm to midnight!

     

    Guiding you through a packed show with loads of different sections tonight will be myself, Richard 'I don't like Wrestlemania or folding sets' Orford and Ross 'Actually I DO like Wrestlemania and folding sets' Jarvis.


    And here's how it looks-



    7pm- Live Master Cash coverage


    8pm- Top of the Pots- the 10 biggest Mastercash hands of the week

     

    9pm- Live coverage of the final table of Skill & Go 

     

    10pm- Live Master Cash action

     

    11pm- Live late stages of the £12K Sky Sports Bounty Hunter


     

    All banter, questions, hand requests gratefully received and read out on the show, so stick them either on this thread, via email skyopen@bskyb.com or via Twitter #skypoker

     

    Yesterday was my birthday, not April 1st (as some of you might be thinking would be more apt) but yesterday. 


    Anyway, apart from the depressing thought that I'm another step nearer to my thirties (cough, cough) the occasion quite usefully inspired me to come up with another Big Question for tonight's show. Which is...


    What would be your two ideal birthday presents? One poker, the other non-poker.

     


     

    Maybe think outside the box and not immediately say 'a seat in the WSOP' etc as I think it's safe to say that would be everyone's ideal birthday present!


    Think mine would be a day of one-on-one with Neil Channing.


    And a night of one-on-one with Scarlet Johansson.


    We'll no doubt have some Turbo Tuesday seats to give away to the best answers.


    Look forward to your answers and see you tonight at 7!

    I know you don't normally do it,but wondering if it was possible to have this hand reviewed on the show tonight, during one of the cash hours.

    Hand History #762626281 (20:38 02/04/2014) Mastercash 3

    What would you bet on the turn? And also thoughts on the river play?

    Poker related - the option to run it 2,3 or 4 times on sky poker - so I still have a chance of holding up or drawing out after 1 run.

    Non-Poker related – A tad irrational but a ban on using the word "Absolutely" life is to short for taking 4 syllables to say yes!

    I absolutely agree.

    As an addendum to that - I know a guy who actually makes it sound like five syllables.

    To have a mentor session with Doyle Brunson

    To have millions to give away to charity.

    Hello R+R.  According to a forum post you must of got your poker related birthday pressy a day early Richard ;)

    Having gone to two wrestlemanias in the past (driving through Miami in a convertable with my best mate was a particular highlight) I could say going to a third would be my ideal non poker birthday present, but I won't.  My ideal present would be a ticket to the Liverpool v Newcastle game on the last day of the season so I can see Liverpool finally lift the premiership trophy.  My ideal poker related present would be to play in the SPT grand final this year.  It is always the highlight of my poker calendar and a freebie into it would be perfect, and give me more money to spend on beer the night before :)

    Have a great show and there is still time to organise a Wrestlemania special for Sunday nights show ;)

    Evening dream team. <- (My favourite presenter and analyst) ;-)

    My poker related present would obviously be to win a big event, but more realistically i would like to break into the top 10 of a main event on sky poker. Never managed a top 10; 3 11ths and 2 12ths in my short time here. 

    Non poker would be to have free tickets to follow my beloved Leamington FC around the country. Football prices in England are a joke, even in the conference north!

    Good answers so far chaps and chappesses.

    I've got a few Turbo Open seats to hand out tonight to the best replies, so if you havent already, make sure you pop your ideal present suggestions down on here.

    What would be your two ideal birthday presents? One poker, the other non-poker.
    1. Julian Thew's Luck Button!
    2. Richard Orfords diplomacy skills!

    good luck tonight on the show Rich and Ross, I am sure it will be great as always.
    Good luck to the 6 finalists in the Sit And go final. A great promo despite me not making it.
    Birthday presents?
    1. I would like to win a major live poker tournie.
    2. A couple of weeks on a quiet tropical island with cold drinks to hand, cl;ear blue sky's, and crystal clear waters. I can swim with the fish then just relax on a sunbed and chill out.

    Hello.
    Poker related- for all the keyboard warriors to spend more time concentrating on their own game, rather than putting sarcastic comments in the chat box about how others played their hand.
    Non poker related- QPR to gain promotion to the Premier League with a new manager.

    Quick couple of questions for Ross.  Which match does he think will steal the show at Wrestlemania and in a heads up match, who would win between JBL and Ron Simmons?

    Hey guys,

    It actually IS my mum's Birthday tomorrow so in a twist I'll do it from her point of view.

    Non poker related - she wants these chocolate coated cherries from M & S ( early morning jaunt for me!)

    Poker related - She would probably want her son to do brilliantly at any games he's playing today, or over the weekend ( it's not happening so far!) I know she would be massively in favour of any free tourney entries coming my way. ... or not!

     *wink*
  • edited April 2014
    For a small guideline, this season the cheapest adult entry we've visited is £9, and the most expensive is £15. The standard isn't brilliant but banter/atmosphere wise is top notch. We also take over 100 to most away games which is better than some football league sides, so i'm not the only one to follow us haha!

    For what it's worth it was a sincere face, it was meant to be a smiley, but my shift key often fails :-)

    my best poker present would be the chance to have a trip to one of the SPT tours because  the community as a whole is great and saying thank you for the help would be much better in person.

    my best non poker present would be to have a trip to some of the best wildlife sites in the world even 1 site would be great.

    Ross could never win wimbledon because when the umpire says Game, set and match Ross would fold

    Hi guys,
    I have two hands i'd like you to have a look at if i'm not being too greedy:)
    They both involve all ins on the river. 
    Hand 1 is from 31st march on mastercash 22 id 761958054
    Question is should i just be flatting the river here or raising like i did. No specific reads.

    Hand 2 is from 30th march on mastercash 30 id 761665279
    Question is 1 should i call pre due to cold caller in sb or just fold? After that i think i did the right thing but would appreciate any advice.

    Ta

    Poker related to qualify via satelite for the Sky Poker Tour in Dublin and final table (assuming you guys are back in Dublin again this year). Ive only ever played poker online and never set foot in a casino so that would be awesome. Hope to meet Tikay some day too (Richard I know you will love that ....not!!)

    Non poker related to see Cambridge Utd win the champions league in the next 5 years

    Quick shout out for Waooga in the skill and go final tonight!!
