    Back once again with the renegade master! Well, back once again with Ryan anyway... Sky Poker TV LIVE Sunday 8th March 2015 7pm-midnight
    Channel 861 or streamed from skypoker.com
     With Richard ‘Still at the UKPC, even though everyone else has gone home’ Orford                           
                                  
                             
                               ...and Ryan "Wishes he'd been still at the UKPC after Day One" Spittles...                                             
                                                
                                                       
                                                      

    And we go live from 7pm for another 5 hour fest of Sky Poker.com TV goodness. Featuring of course the main event-The £20K Super Roller from 8pm, The Final Table from Thursday's main event Sky Sports Bounty Hunter and from 8.45pm The Viva las Vegas Semi Final Satellite!
    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.
    The best three tonight will win seats into Tuesday night's Turbo main event.
    And amongst all the usual coverage, we're also looking to come up with an... 

    ALTERNATIVE POKER GLOSSARY


     

     

     

    We just accept it's called the big blind and small blind don't we? But...what if we could start again and rename all the poker terms. Would we now call it the Little 'un and Big 'un? Would we be better off calling the river 'the death card'? Or the flop 'the spread'?


    You get the idea.


    Send in your genuinely sensible alternatives. Or your comedy not-so-sensible alternatives.


    Cya @ 7 this Sunday. :-)

    I think we should re-name a brick card a concrete card in Tikay's honour.

    Have a great show.

    Great show so far chaps. Perchaps Rich you could throw some light on the great "Clive" scandal. Did you really break it or are you being wrongly accused? As the expenditure on Clive was the major part of Sky Pokers budget for the year (costing about £1.00 I believe) Will heads roll?

    How about a term for when someone keeps hitting what they require to beat you. Instead of just biting your tongue, you can refer to them as doing a Julian Thew.

    Great suggestions so far guys. Please keep them coming.

    Gonna choose the best 3 tonight for prizes, so it won't be a case of being pulled randomly from the hat. i.e. the better they are, the more chance they have of getting you a free shot at Tuesday's main.

    :-)

    As America seems to be the spiritual home of poker shouldn't we call chips fries?

    Hello Rich and Ryan absolutely fabulous show so far, my poker term would be the one outer for the villain on the river. You don't want it to come, you know it can come when it wants and you won't like it when it does come. We can call it
    " The Tikay". Cheers Chris aka Doylebrun, PS I like him really.

    Why are they called 'hole' cards? There is no hole. I've never seen anyone take a JCB and cut a hole into the felt on the table, not once.
    They should be called 'ante' cards, or if you divvy up beforehand then 'divvy' cards would be more appropriate.

    Ok new terminology for the cards then, why should poket kings be cowboys? what have rockets got to do with aces?
    Kings and Queens are royalty and an ace is a expert fighter pilot. So lets gor for AA is spitfires, KK is Henrys and QQ is Lizzies. It's time for the british terminology

    Evening chaps.

    Are you taking hand requests from Master Cash tables tonight? If so:

    The general consensus has been that I should call the river here... but I've been bruised so often lately by people showing up with the near nuts here that I make the nit-fold. It's a weird line for the villain to take with one pair or a missed draw. So what do you gents think? Call because I'm getting better than 2/1 and he can have KJ or something odd?


    Hand History #882900844 (00:05 08/03/2015) - Master Cash 22


    You'll gather that I flatted the flop to allow draws or one-pair hands to keep betting. I don't really want to get it in there and then against a range that has good equity against me or has me in big trouble, presuming the villain doesn't stack off with just top-pair. 

    I can't offer any great information on the villain because a) it was late and b) I'm not sure I was paying attention.


    It's probably a mistake to fold... I know it's probably a mistake... I just wonder how mahoosive a mistake it really is.


    Thank you.

    Perhaps the flop could be the "Potential", the turn could be the "Hope" and the river could be the "Dreamcrusher"!

    if we want to attract new players into poker why don't we make it more accessible

    so how about

    flop - the board's three
    turn - number 4
    river - number 5

    not sexy - but isn't poker sexy enough already

    when holding AA, we always seem to get frustated, as we always want to be called but what we also want to happen is we win the hand , so maybe we should call it the wind up pair

    "THE DECISION"

    Definition:

    When playing against Stuart Rutter

    The player has to decide whether to raise small or all in if they can't beat trips

    Its a guaranteed fold by Stu either way

    The decision is purely for street cred
