    my poker super power would be to see into the future and  see the turn and flop  and then I could fold top pair and kicker
    might get bit boring wining all the time but  live  with it :)

    Hello Jules and Ross my super power would be to turn into a 9 foot 1 ton green giant and when ever I lost a hand I could politely ask my opponent if they would like to give me my chips back or would they like to be turned into a knot. While I was at it I would look for anyone who found Lord of the Rings boring and do the same to them. Great show as always cheers Chris aka Doylebrun.

    Hmmm... sounds like FCHD is making a bluff.

    I think it's Wookie for HHYFTRFTDR.

    question about live poker

    Q. are people usually expected to dress smart?
  • edited January 2015
    I've had a think about the superpower I'd choose, given the aforementioned shortcomings of X-ray vision.

    I'd have the superpower to talk to pretty girls.

    "How does that relate to poker?" you might be thinking - Good question...

    ...I'll get back to you.

    Hi, a live question for you, I'm off to aspers tomorrow for the £13 afternoon tourney, first time at aspers but winning around locals, checked the previous results and 1st -8th is always the regulars, going to try and break the mould, what would be your top tip for the psychological side of things when your in a large tournement, mid game, and you notice your now facing the regulars and being a lonesome new player can have a psychological effect that creates negative impact on your game and except for silently meditating I'm keen to know what your advice would be here. thanks!

    Ok I am strange but explain why? After a few years of online play mainly cash, i played a few home games for pennies seriously only pennies. I then gor talked into a tournament at DTD. I was nervous but came 10th and cashed. Some friends wanted to play in a pub league and take me along. I was nervous again as I expected to win and would they accept me. They were ok and friendly despite me winning the league. I am now comfortable playing live tournaments, but other than for pennies I still have not played at a casino etc. for cash. why?

    In the UKPC, talking about string bets, I picked up 3 BB's in chips on the button. I moved the 3 chips (1500  at the time) in the air across the line and let the chips fall. They did not fall all together as the last  one stuck slightly to my fingers, the dealer said that as they did not fall all together it was a call. Your view?

    Hi Jules, great show tonight,

    You won't get in DTD wearing tracky bottoms, smart jeans are fine.

    My super power would be to always see the river card as this is the most frustrating card of all!

    Steve

    This might sound silly but the worst thing I suffered with when I played my first live game at DTD was following the betting sequence, I was so nervous I even folded when it was my check, it's so different to when you sat at home online it's all done for you, just by click of a mouse!

    Great show, loving the tutorial on live poker
    Would Love to hear Ross Jarvis's thoughts on folding a Full House!?!
    My thought process here was I had just sat down at the table and my opponent was not a reg and i was taking a shot for 10% of my bankroll and i didnt invest too much into the pot. The hand id was 

    864222568 on mastercash tonight. Card blockers would be helpful would Ross fold here if he'd fold a set? (Which episode was it when he did btw?)

    Thanks JJJ

    The quiz show hosted by john mcenroe was called the chair 

    i used to watch it every week thought it was a good show not sure why they axed it

    Hi jules and ross great show this is boohoohaha, my comption power would be to read minds then I would know when to fold or bet but that I think that would be cheating but then again who would know
  • edited January 2015
    Ross, I was on that TV Show with John McEnroe.

    It was called The Chair & I won £50k!!!
  • edited January 2015
    It was filmed at Pinewood Studios in 2002.

    It was BBC's answer to Millionnaire. You got cash for answering questions correctly. The twist was the heart rate monitor. You had your resting heart rate measured & you had to keep your heart rate within 20% of this level.

    If you didn't, it was called redlining & your cash started to reduce until you got your heart rate down. A lot of contestants got excited if they knew an answer but their heart rate went up so they lost all their money.

    I just kept gambling & kept my heart rate under control. Hence the £50k win.

    Jules - you're right about blinking. Accoding to Wikipedia it "is an essential function of the eye that helps spread tears across and remove irritants from the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva"
