IT'S PRIMO TIME! (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***)

J-HartiganJ-Hartigan
edited September 2010 in Poker Chat
Not long to go now.  Both the tournament and the TV show begin at 8pm. This evening, Trevor is the Lancey Howard to my Eric Stoner.

If there's a hand from Primo you'd like analysed on the telly, please post the Hand ID in this thread.  If there's a question you'd like to ask Hartigan & Harris (hmmm...sounds like a firm of tailors!), please post it in this thread.

And here's a couple of topics for you to get your teeth into:

(SERIOUS)  Is it right that the events at the World Series of Poker Europe award bracelets?  Shouldn't these coveted pieces of jewellery be reserved for the main WSOP festival in the summer?  Should the WSOPE not be put into the same bracket as the Circuit Events in the US and award rings? 

(NOT SO SERIOUS)  Earlier today, I bought a 'Primo'.  Where was I?  (No, it wasn't a coffee shop!)  And what's the most random / bizarre thing that reminds you of Sky Poker?

    Hi James

    Bearing in mind it is a weekend and you have a little 'un (Yorkshire speak for a child) I reckon you were in a toy shop as Primo is a form of LEGO (TM)

    Maybe you unleashed the lost youth in you and went to a bike shop and bought a BMX PRIMO, show us some stunts in the studio!!

    Bracelets for WSOPE Europe is a great question, they don't seem very exclusive to me with over 50 awarded at the Rio and more here, how about just awarding one for the WSOPE Main Event? Thats where I stand anyway.

    Not playing tonight, just watching as failed in the satellite, I did however qualify for SPT Blackpool last night so happy days!!

    And how about a shout out for winning the SPT Final last longer!!

    Very demanding Dave tonight!!

    They're not betting so they win bracelets they're creating side action.

    Did TJ care when he sold his for craps moneys?

    Are u feeling better now James? I fear I now have the dreaded tonsillitus as well!

    I am always reminded of Sky Poker when I'm walking down the pavement and see the fire hydrant drain covers as they are identified as FH which, due to the text type at the poker tables, is Full House!

    Interested to know how I could play this to get more value- how would you have played this when you've hit the flop so strongly but without much else out there?

    I slowed down on purpose when the A hit, hoping that it would make my hand look a lot weak and induce a bluff, or make any A feel like they had the best hand. Not sure whether I should have reraised on the turn, or having called- whether I should have bet the river stronger. I felt villain didn't like his hand much.

    Ha James!

    Hand Request

    Hand History #291246020

    A couple of callers, then a decent raise by me. It would be interesting to see what my opponent had when I had the full house QQ555

    Interesting! 

    My first foray into the Primo, after winning a satellite and I am out after 12 minutes.

    A5 vs 44 on an A45 flop.

    I have an issue with the name of World Series of Poker Europe...surely an European Series of Poker?

    I would actually say that the WSOPE Bracelets are now of more worth/prestiege than a WSOP event bracelet.   The BIs are higher, when you consider exchange rates..qualifty of players is far higher, going by the TV broadcasts, if you were to play in this then it is extremely unlikley that you wouldn't find yourself on the same table as a number fo the big name pros.

    And theres always gonna be significantly less braclets out there on the open market, very unlikely you are gonna find one at a Pawn shop.

    PRIMO - Is it a choice of service in a massage parlour.

    & WSOP - How about something european like a special edition gold swiss movement watch.

    WSOPE is so much tougher than WSOP it's ridic

    the fields are intense, there are not 1000's of morans with lots of monies like in vegas.
