***** SUNDAY NIGHT LIVE SHOW WITH FOWLER & MARIGOLDS, 7PM CH 861 OFFICIAL SHOW THREAd *****

MissFowler

Evening all,

I am back from the tropics, and joining Karl tonight for your Sunday edition of SkyPoker. We'll be taking a look at Thursday Sky Sports Bounty Hunter final table, action from tonight's Main Event; The 12k Super Roller as well as possibly some MasterCash....

Whilst away I did a photoshoot for a chap called Paul Casey and knowing nothing at all about golf I asked him how it compared to poker...

Professional golfers travel to numerous tournaments every year, if they don't win they still have expenses to pick up, the look for sponsership, it's a mental game, they need to not tilt and throw their gold club... I actually said stick at the time  ........

So with this in mind our topic of the night is:

'What are the similarities between your favourite sport and poker?........

Seats to be given away are for the Turbo Open on Tuesday for our best entries

As always we also welcome your hand IDs, new player shoutouts, questions and general banter......

see you soon

A poker tournament is just like a batsman's innings in a cricket match - one error of judgment and you're out.

Benchmark

Poker is like my favourite sport, triathlon. Certainly when I do it.

Mine starts with a belly FLOP into a RIVER. This usually gets everone watching to DOUBLE-UP.

And after a few TRIPS on the run, it usually ends up with me LIMPing down the home STRAIGHT.

I love Pool and Poker !!

Both Pool Players and Poker Players Need a Steady Hand

Both Pool Players and Poker Players Need to Plan Ahead

Both Pool Players and Poker Players Need Mental Toughness and Composure

Both Pool Players and Poker Players Need Continually Improve Their Game

Both Pool and Poker Players Play the Player

Finnaly 

Both Pool and Poker Are Fun to Play

Hi Anna and ya buddie

One of my fav sports is Tiddly winks.

Just like Poker, keep putting them winks in the pot and nothing comes out, that is until a big fish comes along and knocks it over (Does happen, I have some really active fish!!)). LOL (Is LOL still accepted, it feels so yesterday?)

Oh no not a villa fan Boing Boing all over you

My favourite sport is Athletics.

Like poker, the sport is made up of a number of different disciplines, it can be a marathon or a sprint, and you get to take a shot while avoiding all the hurdles.

Evening all.  Enjoying the show so far.  Happy birthday to the show and to both my girls, the oldest of which turned 8 just last month.

Poker is like my favourite sport, wrestling.  Both are misunderstood by the general public.  In both you have to fool others to succeed and some people wrongly think that both are fixed!

I have taken to giving out signed photos of myself whenever I knock someone out of a live event.  Makes them feel a bit better

On my eighth birthday I had a party at my house. We had balloons and cake; the usual stuff. All the kids from my class were invited, plus a few others, so well over thirty...

...Two people showed up.

My Dad took the three of us to McDonalds and an arcade to make the best of it. I haven't had a birthday party since.

True story. Other people find it funny, so I thought I'd share.

Question Have you ever made A final table By Doubling up over and over again from a very small stack ?

FCHD

Hi again

My favourite sport really is athletics, I was a qualified club coach for nearly 20 years and have done several marathons and half marathons, notably one in Las Vegas where they take you out into the middle of the desert very early in the morning and you run a dead flat course back to finish just off the southern end of the strip.

Hi Guys,

Enjoying the show ....so far!  As you can see from my avatar I'm a climber and it's a bit like poker in that..

..you have to start on the easy tables/routes..

..you take quite a few falls in the early days..

..you take some (usually) calculated risks..

..it takes a LOT of practice.

..you often think "i'm not getting ANY better, I might as well just give up" 

but you persevere and realise you enjoy it SOO much you just can't!!!

Hi just got in from a county match, I play bridge for my county. Have I missed much?

In a way it was an apt question. So what does bridge and poker have in common when the games are so vastly different? It's tryiing to work out what the opponent is thinking / doing

Hi Anna and Karl

Enjoying the show as always.

Question for Karl. When down to four out of six in a DYM, which hands should you shove with? Let's say you have the lowest stack out of the four remaining players, should you shove with any pocket pair or if you have a low pair should you fold and hope someone else exits instead?
