PRIMO 07/02/2010

J-Hartigan

So, for the next two months (with a bit of time off for good behaviour!) I'll be hosting Sky Poker's prestigious Sunday-night televisual treat.

And, this evening, I'll be joined in the studio by Mark Banin, who'll be analysing the action from the £15k GTD Primo - which begins at 8pm.

We welcome your questions and your requests to feature interesting hands you've played/observed during this tournament.

Please post Qs and Hand IDs below...

Cheers,

James.

Hi James, Mark

There are different thoughts on how to play big pairs at different stages of a tournament, I always put in a a big bet/raise at any stage, pretty much saying want to put your tournament on the line?, yes, I may not win much, but its not very often I get outdrawn/called, what do you think James and Mark please, oh and Happy Birthdya Sky Poker

James and Mark,

I have recently discovered SharkScope, and want to know what a good ROI would be for an MTT player?  Also, how much notice of my ROI should I be taking, or is it profit that is important?

James & Mark,

Do you think that the standard of NLHoldem has got to the point that it is harder to have an edge. Therefore is there going to be a move away to the Omaha tables / other forms of poker?

If this does happen, do you feel we will see an increase in entrants to the smaller types of poker events in the WSOP and perhaps within the decade we will have an Omaha Main Event in the WSOP with an equally large field as the NLH Main event.

Dave

p.s. congratulations on the 3rd year birthday and  here's to the next 3!

Hi guys,

Should I be worrying about position on low limit cash? I try not to play average hands when not in position but at 2p/4p or 5p/10p does it really matter? also should i worry about what others are doing when they have position on me? im guessing a lot of players at this level wont even know what position mean.

Hi Guys, I dont have a large bankroll and sometimes find myself playing too high stakes. On any bankroll what sort of % should be the most you use in any one game. As an extra i have compiled a poem for you;

Hello James and Mark

You both look in your prime

If i were to get a prize

We'd get along just fine.

Im no poet obviously lol

Even though Tikay isn't playing in this weeks Primo, amazingly, he has lasted almost as long as he did last week.  Impressive!

Springs

Just wondering whether I wastaking too much of a risk on this hand, investing quite a bit of money this early on in the tourney?

Reasoning behind it was I'd seen the opponent call a bet on the flop and then fold on the turn (like this time), but am I being a bit too agressive at only level 2?

Hey James nice to see somebody follows the real football (NFL). Big Dolphins fan here, who's your team? Will be supporting the Saints tonight, cos i think Drew Brees has the firepower to get through the Colts "D". Score 35-24

Happy birthday Sky............And here's my blatant begging bit!

I feel that i should have an entry into next week's Primo simply because the NFL finishes tonight and next week i'll have no reason to go watch t'other Sky tv upstairs. I'll have to stay downstairs and watch Dancing on Ice! So please Mark, as a Spurs fan to a Leeds fan, give me the win(cos we gave you it last weds)

Great show guys, thanks

CovDude_68

A guy was playing 10-20 holdem and was down about £300 when he looked down beside the table and saw a little green leprechaun. "Quit playing poker forever right now and I'll give you a pot of gold worth a million pounds.", said the little fellow. The player replied, "Let me get even first."

Good show guys
