Ask Maxally / Sky Rich / Sky Bernie?

edited August 2010 in Poker Chat

Morning Folks!

With Tk swanning off to Vegas shortly and admitting that his forum time will be 'cut down', I have decided to open this thread which I hope, if not abused , will eventually be stickied for sensible questions/requests. I have noticed that Sky Bernie has recently listened to and acted upon some suggestions from the forum members which can only be commended. I realise that he is a very busy man so please allow some reasonable time for any feedback to filter back on here. I am sure Sky Rich will also appreciate this thread when he eventually returns from what seems like his 3 months vacation. :))

So guys.....fire away but please please do not use this as a complaints/bad beat thread.

Thank you.

    Can these questions be poker related Max? I haven't seen sky rich or sky bernie play too much poker on here.

    Do you think we should have a job interview to find out what experience they have lol. How much experience do they have with Trains and JCB's?

    Good Idea Max - It should include you in the title as obviously, as you are the more poker orientated of all three of us....

    I will sticky it now...

    Kind regards,

    Bernie....

    As already mentioned in a couple of other threads on here, some of us are keen to keep the Dantb Deepie going at 7pm Sunday night, even while Dan is away.

    But there are again no satellites in the schedule, and with the football tomorrow there may not be time to have one before it starts.

    I know there are many players who want to get involved in this great tourny without overstretching their bankrolls, and to make it work we need well advertised satellites during the peak playing time.

    5pm is not a good time for sats, many people are out and about. I think 10 pm may get a better response,when there are invariably good players around who may have been knocked out of their main event, and are looking for something worthwhile to play.

    How about it, Rich Bernie ?

    Hi Tony,

    I have put a direct satellite into it at 22.05 tonight - Please spread the word and see if we can get a few players involved....

    Kind regards,

    Bernie

    P.S. I'm still on hols until Monday, and have a barbie tonight and footy tomorrow, so I will not be around until then.....Maybe? So if I do not reply to any further request from all, that's the reason.

    Lol....nice 'gesture' Bernie but I am sure you are 'jesting'! What I know about poker can be written on the back of a 56p coin :))

    Hope you have a good day off tomorrow sir but I also hope you can find time on Monday to peruse this thread and help where you can.

    Cheers,

    Alan

    Ola from Portugal!....

    The first words that cam out of my mouth when i first saw this thread was "Oh my goodness, this is Alan's quest for World domination coming to the core!". That peeps is a scary prospect! :)....

    Seriously Alan i think you will certainly be a very worthwhile replacement for Tikay over the next couple of weeks for this section and i just need to think of a question to ask while Grand Master Luckbox here on my all-inclusive jolly enjoys another beer! :)

    Hi Max.
    It's my wifes birthday Today and I bought her a camcorder so she can record my daughters wedding. But secretly I would like to use it in the bedroom.

    Do you think I should ask her?

    Hi Trev....

    I would play this one safe if I was you matey......and DON'T ask or even suggest it or you might have to go to your daughter's wedding on crutches! It will be easier for you to read page 14 on the reader's wife's section of a certain magazine!! :)))

    I reckon Maxally should stand in for Tikay on the TV too.

    Pokertrev; You wife is probably thinking the same thing too, go for it.

    MAXALLY, Bernie, Rich,

    Is it possible to add some Omaha Hi-Lo DYM's to the lobby?  Most of the other PLO8 games don't get enough runners but I'm pretty sure these would fill and at least get some entry level action on this great game.

    Another player asked the same question here and I've mentioned it a couple of times here and here.

    Thanks.

    Hi Aaron

    Thank you for your request. It is out of my remit to add to the lobby (for now) but I am sure Bernie will consider it on Monday. Please keep checking this thread and THANK YOU for using the thread as it was meant to be used for.

    Regards,

    Alan

    This is an open question.  Why is it that if you down a really cold pint of lager, you don't get brain-freeze?

    Sorry, I am a bitter drinker so can not answer your question. I however, believe that all lager louts are 'brain dead' anyway!  :)

    I resent that you judge me to be a "lager lout" just becaus I can ask a question about lager.  I drink strictly porter.

    Apologies. Original post edited to suit. It was no way a personal assumption on your good character and I must reiterate that I do not know the answer you seek.

    Hi Alan.

    I have come up with a little interesting idea that i think would be rather cool!

    As you are standing in for Tikay in this section of the forum, surely the mods/suits can do something nice in return for you doing all this and rename Take on Tikay to Take on Maxally for 2 weeks only!!!

    To make the great man even happier i would suggest should you do any promo photos that they be done standing next to a train or feeding bread to a mallard! :)

    That is all!

    Hi Solly....

    Another one that is out of my remit (for now anyway!). I am just leaving to get wrecked to celebrate/commiserate* England's win/loss* so all I can suggest is that you try and promote it as best you can on the forum to try and get the numbers up. Last night's sat for this got only 6.

    Cheers (hic),

    Alan

    Just noticed our regular 8.15 Deepstack Tourny is missing and has now been turned into a rebuy.

    Sky are you taking the P - This is a regular tourny and gets a decent field every night, so why oh why have you changed it from it's original format to a re-buy?.

    If this is an error - I accept your apology - if Not then its goodbye from me and goodbye from him.

    I am completely Outraged and ask you to look at this sensibly and return it to it's rightful home.
