Also, we're recording episode 2 tomorrow. We'll be discussing the Viva Las Vegas final and hopefully chatting to the winners Penguin and Jazzy. Ross Jarvis, winner of SPT Luton AND Senior Staff Writer for Poker Player magazine will be our special guest and of course Rich + Tikay (actually me + hand picker Harry) will be picking the hottest topics for the week...
Just fast-forward through his part.
Good show guys.
How about a stuffed shark for a mascot to scare the fish? I know why not... Tikay doesn't like scaring the fish... but Rich wouldn't see the connection would he?

Also, why is he never on PTP anymore, but his pic is always showing? Don't get me wrong, i like seeing his pic but would also be nice to see him taking part sometime .
Matt brings a different type of humour and gives some great hand analysis. He certainly gives "poker a smile" I think he was missed by a lot of the community when the Club came to its abrupt halt last summer, but we all expected him to turn up in a new show.
Good luck with the new club and i have to say Tikay, you looked very dashing in your suit on the final TP show. Much nicer than the blazers i think.
On a lighter note, the show is just great, bar your acting at the start, lol.
Great chat.
Good representation of what happens on the forum for those viewers who just view and don't participate.
Nice interview with the SPT Luton winner, even funnier to see him answering Tikay's 'specialist' question. (new weekly feature - Tikay's be-mu-sing question of the week?) (not related to any Harry Hill feature at all)
Quote of the week has to be from John McCruirick, regarding bad players (flashes up pic of Richard)... something along the lines of, "You have AK and the flop has a King, but then a couple of Aces come up, but all they can think of is their own hand..." Errr, John, they have Aces full of Kings - I don't think he thought that example through!
All in all a great show, I do find the poker gets in the way of the humour somewhat, but you can't have everything!
Did you see the stack sizes? surely its wrong to say there was no way off it?
We had a bit of of a get together with Tony at DTD this weekend and tony had tried to set up a session with Simon Trumper on Omaha, but he was away and could not do it.
I thought it would make a very good episode on The Club, with Simon reveling stratagies and answering questions sent in by us all.
What do you think mate?

Not sure if this is correct or not but I thought I'd have a go at some maths! The trouble with the Royal Flush on board calculation is there are so many possible starting conditions, here's a few...
Type
Complicated Stuff
Odds to 1
Royal Type
1/((5/52) * (4/51) * (3/50) * (2/49) * (1/48))
2598960
Number of 5 card hands possible dealing from 52 card deck
1
1/((20/52) * (4/51) * (3/50) * (2/49) * (1/48))
649740
Odds of Royal all cards possible dealing from 52 card deck
2
1/((20/51) * (4/50) * (3/49) * (2/47) * (1/45))
550560.9375
Odds of Royal all cards possible dealing from 52 card deck including burned cards (excluding possibility burned card was a Royal card)
3
1/((20/40)*(4/39)*(3/38)*(2/37)*(1/36))
164502
Odds of a Royal at a 6 seater no 10,J,Q,K,A held by a player

658008
Odds of a Royal at a 6 seater no 10,J,Q,K,A of a particular suit held by a player
6
1/((5/39)*(4/38)*(3/37)*(2/35)*(1/33))
527777.25
Odds of a Royal at a 6 seater no 10,J,Q,K,A of a particular suit held by a player including burned cards (excluding possibility burned card was a Royal card)
Explanation of my reasoning of Royal 1:
I'm using the whole 52 card pack, no players and no burning of cards in the deal
First card must be one of 10,J,Q,K,A but of any suit so 20 possible cards so odds of getting it are 20/52
First card determines suit so
Second card must be one of the 4 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 4/51
Third card must be one of the 3 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 3/50
Fourth card must be one of the 2 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 2/49
Fifth card must be the remaining card to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 1/48
Explanation of my reasoning of Royal 6:
I'm using the whole 52 card pack, 6 players with 2 cards each and burning a card before the flop, turn and river
First card must be one of 10,J,Q,K,A but of a particular suit so 5 possible cards, already 12 cards held by players and 1 card burned before the flop so odds of getting it are 5/39
Second card must be one of the 4 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 4/38
Third card must be one of the 3 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card 3/37
Fourth card must be one of the 2 remaining cards to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card, remembering the burned card also 2/35
Fifth card must be the remaining card to make a Royal of the same suit as the first card , remembering the burned card 1/33
@Machka,
Gidzo would have called the odds of this off the top of his head in 2 secs, lol.
