*** Tuesday Night's Live Show! ***

edited January 2015 in Poker Chat
Hope you've all had a good start to the week so far guys and gals?! Unfortunately, poor Anna hasn't :( She's not feeling too well so I've stepped in with my magical poker presenter powers to save the day!! So tonight's show will be going ahead as normal, just with me, instead. And I'll be joined by my super hero poker pro - Ross Jarvis!

On channel 861 and on your sky poker apps from 7pm - midnight as always!
We're gonna start tonight with the Super Roller final table and we are going to be chatting lots about strategy tonight, as well as dipping into the cash tables and the Turbo Tuesday main event too! 

We are also giving away a few EXTRA SPECIAL seats on tonight's show - to tomorrow's UKPC Quarter Final Sat (worth £10.70). These sats are where you all wanna be right now, after all we are only just over a month away from that EPIC 1 million pound guaranteed main event at Dusk Til Dawn for the first UKPC festival of the year. And you can get a free seat into that satellite tomorrow just by getting involved in the show....

Questions for Ross, strategy questions, any banter, and your thoughts on THIS, all go into the draw:

If you could add one poker super power to your game, 
what would it be and why?

    Good evening Jules and Jarvs.

    I was about to say "X-ray vision" for obvious profit-making reasons... 

    Then it occurred to me that poker players are mostly pot-bellied old men and spotty 19 year-old boys. I'm not so keen on X-ray vision anymore. :-(

    Have a great show.

    Mind Reading would be good too.

    After all its not just about knowing what cards they have - knowing what they think you have and how they plan to bet and why is even more useful.

    Having that skill we would also need to be able to switch it off.

    "How was it for you darling?" You don't mind when I am playing poker do you" etc etc

    Us men are happy to let women be convincing liars for most of the time. Actually it's not so much that women lie well it's more than men are happy to hear what they want to.

    hi guys,

    special power would be the jedi mind trick...i could make players bet 99% of their chips then fold to my raise....:)

    i have bit of a mountain to climb tonight as last week i finished 2nd in the turbo main for only 60p entry.

    almost £800 for 60p...very nice....have a great show and yes mr jarvis i am in main and mini...

    The super power every poker enthusiast would love to have would be hindsight about thirty seconds before they shove all in!

    How many times do you know you shouldn't? but you do it anyway! and that even applies to poker too lol

    When I final tabled the Turbo main last week (not a brag dont worry), Gazscoop was on there and I'm fairly sure he won it. So would have been a decent week for him!

    Brilliant so far guys!! Keep them coming! Also, any strategy questions or questions for playing live?

    ​Hi guys the hand with the set of three's.

    Hunter was firing two bullets as standard when he was the pre flop aggressor.

    Hence just calling the flop, despite the drawy board.

    I was confident he would fire again on the turn with air or a weak hand, but re-raised here to potentially get some money in the pot!

    Please could you give a big shout out to those who have supported the Tournament Leader Board charity initiative that I started up at the beginning of the year.

    £1,775.00 pledged so far!

    Thanks again all.

    To support this go to the "Tournament Leader Board" thread on the forum in "poker chat"

    Cheers Graham (StayOrGo)

    My question for Ross:

    If they decided to make next months UKPC more Glitzy

    Giving final tableists gladitoral names like Phil the Power Taylor in darts.

    apart from the obvious Ross the Boss!

    If Ross made that table, what would his poker handle be?

    the power of telekinisis, I could move their chips to my stack while they are not looking

    My superpower would be to convince everyone at the table that my pocket queens were actually a better hand than the small blind's third deuce on the river.
  • edited January 2015
    if i had a super power it would be the ability to calcuate things.

    poker has gots lots of maths involved and what better way to calculate the odds than a calculation brain.

    best thing of all is i'll no long be so worried about my total when going to the till after doing a big shop.

    I would be an illusionist. I could convince them their AA was 7-2 and their 7-2 was AA
  • edited January 2015
    if i could add 1 super power to my poker it would be the ability to lay down sets just like ross :)
  • edited January 2015
    Hi guys

    My poker power would have to be the power of calming.....

    For example - everytime my little one cries and I am in a hand, I could just look over to her and instantly gt her to hold onto any nature call visits until the break ;-)

    Looking forward to hopefully running well in main and mini

    hand request from the turbo

    864137528

    are his weak bets a clear sign he's now hit strong?

    also would this hand have been best to fold pre considering the fact it's not got much draws?
  • edited January 2015
    My "poker power" would be to get friendly with the dealer (not that way!) and be able to get good starting hands (and try to play them well!) or flop the goods time and again with the normal junk I'm dealt!

    my super power would be to see though cards ....makes life easier 

  • edited January 2015
    I turn on the show and within 30 seconds, Ross is asking me to confirm about poker players lack of common sense.

    Yes, yes i am really thick.  Slightly above average at cards tho.

    And I jinxed myself when I said to Jules that I've won every day this year.  Downhill since then!
  • edited January 2015
    Re live play, does Ross think that any of the common tells from online poker (timimg, click backs)can be used for the live game?
  • edited January 2015
    Evening Jules & Ross,

    Question for Ross. (The UNDER-RAISE in MTT B/H etc)

    If you are 1st to act (utg) and short-stack is utg+1 with 3BB,
    if you min raise and short-stack goes all-in,
    Can any following player re-open the betting, or can they only call?


  • edited January 2015
    My super power would be mind control with the eys make them raise make them fold easy

    I have a question about playing live.  I have only played live about 8 or 9 times and cashed in 4 of them.  I get nervous about dealing.  At home I play in my PJs and slippers, do you think if I went to the casino in my PJs I may put people off their game as it is not a pretty sight and I may feel more comfortable and less nervous about dealing.
