    Hi gang,

    Look how early I'm in the office today, preparing for tonight's show. Now, THAT'S commitment.

    What's that you say? I deserve a raise? I couldn't agree more. ;)

    Right, get your comments in for this poll, serious and light-hearted. And of course, use this forum to post any questions, comments, stories, shout-outs, birthday greetings, well-wishes, brags, rubdowns, jokes, poems, writs, etc, etc.

    I will endeavour as ever to read them all out over the course of tonight's show and all contributors on this thread will go into the hat to win that poker book.

    Thanks for posting and good luck!

    Hi Guys,
    I voted for the laying down a big hand to see you were behind.
    Why, well i feel that it is always nice to maximise your monsters but in my opinion, you feel a lot better when you dont lose a lot of your chips when you are beaten in a hand, plus it means you spidey sence is working well. great show guys keep it up.
    col.
    ps if i win the book can you give it to a new player as ive got 2 copies already

    Hi tikay, Richard

    Wow, nice one, the question is did you beat tikay in ? PAY RISE FOR RICHARD, YOU LISTENIN SOOOOOTS ;)

    I think I could pick each and every one from the poll, allthough I would have liked to have been paid yesterday when I called with Kc 6c and the flop went Ac Qc 10c the nut flush, my opponent bet 200 I had to have a serious think, because this was going to be the hardest call in my poker playing life, called of course, the turn card yup Jc ROYAL FLUSH third one I have had, sigh checked down to the end :( still 200 plus the blinds better than nowt.

    Cheers guys

    Good luck with the show

    I voted for laying down a massive hand.

    If anything has improved my game since I started last year, it is having learnt to be willing to fold a hand.

    I Voted "Other".

    I would get most satisfaction from seeing Rich Cash in a SNG at a SPUKT Event.

    He has gone 27 of them without a single Cash, after all.

    Hi Barry,

    Did he beat me in what? It'd be a first.

    And no, he did not beat me into the Office. I was here at about 10am todaty. But I poppped out to see a man about a dog, just after lunch, so he thought he'd beat me in.

    Plenty of e-Mails tonight, please. I like to see Rich kept busy. It gives him something to do, he's good at reading, & it means I can concentrate on the Expert Summary, without him asking me daft questions. 

    PS - I saw Concorde today! She's parked up, behind the BA Maintenance Area at Heathrow. Wonderful.

    It was lucky you didn`t trip over his feet sticking out from under the table TK
    He woke at 2.53pm looking at his post
    LOL

    I voted for laying down 2 pair on a rubbish board, i told him i thought he had hit a gut shot and i had 2 pairs
    he showed it.

    PS. If i am lucky enough to be drawn out can i gift book to pillowman, i have it already

    Majestic is the word. What a truly wonderful bit of kit.

    I saw the A380 at Heathrow a month or so ago. VERY large, but no charisma, no "between the sheets" appeal. Just big. The 747 is a far better sight.

    I am maintaining a dignified silence in the face of this abuse. A silence which of course, I will break at 9pm.

    Tikay just approached me in the office and said "You're getting a bit of grief on that thread Rich."

    Producer Alan, who was sitting nearby asked "Which thread?"

    To which I answered, in a resigned voice: "Pick a thread, any thread".

    Right guys and gals, another producer here: the lovely Ling, aka Sky Ling on the forum, has asked, nay begged, nay DEMANDED that I ask you lot for 'hand requests'.

    Asking you for a hand request may be misconstrued(!) so let me explain what I mean...

    In tonight's Bounty Hunter (or indeed any game on Sky Poker) if you are part of a hand which you think is of interest then please note the hand I.D. number at the top of the page (or go into the hand history to find it).

    Then please post it on the 'Play My Hand Requests' thread under 'Sky Poker TV Channel' on this forum.
    The hand could be anything from a mad all-in fest with 4 pocket pairs, to an example of excellence from a particular player (probably your good self) to querying a play- perhaps asking if you played it correctly.

    The hands will then be analysed on the next few editions of The Club by Matt and Dan, which will be recorded this Wednesday.

    Cheers!

    Hi Pill

    I thought i`d edited that bit out LOL

    Seriously, on the almost defunked Mickjenn thread (no posts for ages) you asked about a good poker book so i knew you were looking
    If you look at last night comp i put 3 in, thought i had a chance.
    All had the same message so hope we get picked this time.
    Regards

    I absolutely love flopping the nuts and then watching my opponents try to bluff the fact that their top pair is better than say a full house. it isn't long before they are chipping all their money in and i'm laughing all the way to the bank.

    QUESTION THOUGH

    I heard Ed Giddens talking about the chances of hitting a flush on the flop being something like 152:1

    but whats the chances of hitting a straight flush on the flop? got one today which totally shocked me, unfortunately couldn't get my opponents to stick any money in the pot, after checking the flop i put a min raise in on the turn only to see them all fold away ;-(

    Pretty much as I suspected tikay, so, if Richard deserves a raise tikay deserves a re-raise:)
