    Flying through February, now we're knee-deep in the UKPC mini event and heading towards next week's massive main. And we're with you here on the channel all the way... Sky Poker TV LIVE Thursday 19th February 2015 7pm-midnight
    Channel 861 or streamed from skypoker.com
     With Richard ‘Top Trump’ Orford                           
                                  
                               ...and Tony "Top Chump" Kendall...                                             
                                                
                                                       

    And we go broadcast live from 7pm for a whole five hours of Sky Poker.com televisual enhancement. Featuring the main event The £12K Sky Sports Bounty Hunter from 8pm.
    Feel free to start sending in your messages now- I'll be reading them out on the show to everyone watching as soon as we go live and throughout the night.
    Everyone who has a message read out, or a hand request shown, goes in the hat from which at 11.30pm we'll draw three winners of UKPC Quarter-Final satellite seats.
    This time we're asking what's.. 

    YOUR WEAKEST LINK?


     

     

     

    We're all brilliant at poker, right? Right? But if you had to be totally upfront and honest, what's the one part of your almost perfect game that you would describe as the weakest link?


    What do you wish you could master or even, simply do better at? What's the one area where you would benefit from concentrating on to improve?


    I think mine continues to be bankroll management and playing too tight/passive. Other than that, obviously I'm all A-Game. Ahem...

     

    Should be some interesting answers anyway...as long as you're honest!

    Cya @ 7 on Thursday.

    And I did it in the actual show thread title too.

    The conclusion we can all draw from this is I really haven't got a clue what day of the week it is.

    Rock and roll!

    That is if he  to turns up!

    Just read he is 250/1 to be the Lucy killer in Eastender's live show tomorrow (looks like you guys will have competition). Heard it happened whilst playing that game of his 'spot the sausage'. Anyway, put my 56p on it as i read it in Channings bet of the week.....

    Have a good show/night Gentlemen ;)

    Pretty average show so far TBH. 
    I'm beginning to think you make these  mistakes on purpose to see if any people/pedants read your threads?
    Or maybe paid by Sky on sliding scale of how many posts on show thread?   For the record the night there was no show the "no-show" thread will be in top 3!  ;-)) 

    Oh and in the words of UB40....."If it happens again I'm leaving..." (The no show I mean.   I almost had to suffer a "sewing bee" last thursday.  

    Edit: Forgot about weakest link.  His betting on flop suggests he might have me beat.  With his bet on turn I'm pretty sure he's got me beat.  River bet, he's definitely got me beat but I'll call anyway just to see....OF COURSE he's got me beat SIGH GG GL

    Outstanding thread. 

    Bravo Mr Orford.

    Bringing the tone back to more serious matters, I am going to stop calling 3-bets out of position with pretty looking hands. Next year Orford, we'll be millionaires!

    Looking forward to tonights show, plus the celtic game tonight. So will.be streaming the show from 7.

    This month ive mainly played cash starting at level 1. 4nl.  Too see if i can improve my game and see a profit. 

    So far so good as im probally aarond 70-80 profit this month with not to much time playing.  I also enjoy 10 and 20nl when mastercash is on.

    Having had alot of excellent advice on how to approach cash from forum regs and reading and studying i find im doing ok. Lots of advice on my diary and paul (lambert180) and Drrungood have went out there way to help me so thanks to them.

    But..... what is my biggest weakness.... i find myself calling with lots of lower  pocket pairs and calling a raise with them hoping to hit so trying to stay clear of this i probally have a few other weaknesses and leaks but find the forum can quickly help and      and spot these mistakes and help improve your game.

    will there be any mastercash on tonight... mabye there is some more you can find?????

    the only problem I have is folding a full house because I instinctively know there is a better hand on the table. does anybody else have this problem ? you two are the best double act on tv this century I mean that most sincerely friends

    I'm not sure if this counts, but my weakness is probably spotting my weaknesses, i think its quite hard to look back over your hand and say i did this or that wrong, and often you need another person to help you.

    He's been working with you for too long, Tikay. Eight years of listening to you explaining the difference between concrete and cement has obviously turned his brain into cream cheese.

    Looking forward to the show anyway. The A team always entertains.

    My weakest link is playing marginal hands on the flop (especially when out of position). Hands like 2nd pair or a pocket pair when there is one over card on the board. 

    I never know whether to lead out, check/call, check raise, or fold. I often make a mess of it by either folding when my hand it is good or calling/raising when it's bad.

    Cheers,

    Graham

    P.S. Through to Day2 of UKPC Mini on Sunday, but only 23BB, so will need some luck

    My weakest link is to almost automatically continue betting on a moderately good hand, when if I just stopped and thought for a moment, it would be obvious that I am most likely beat.

    That and I can never remember what a full house beats.

    i know my weakest link.  When the cards are running bad i tend to only flat call which you should never do.  Because i want to get away with seeing a cheap flop.  I know its wrong but cant help it sometimes. good luck to night tina
