It's a Super (Bowl) Primo Party! ***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***
One of the biggest sporting events on the planet takes place tonight...
But enough about Primo, it's Super Bowl Sunday! Fancy a flutter on the game? Check THIS out.
And, to mark the occasion, tonight's show will have a distinctly American theme - with Ed Giddins promising to speak in a Texan accent for the entire four hours. *
So, slice yourself a salt beef sandwich, pop open a Bud (other bottled beers are available) and get yourself registered in the main event: the £15k GTD Primo. The tournament costs £55 to enter and kicks off at 8pm. The live TV show begins at 9pm.
Ed and I will be following the action from the Primo (don't forget to e-mail those Hand IDs to skyopen@bskyb.com or post them in this forum thread), before we stop by the cash tables and bring you another enthralling and educational instalment of The Poker Clinic. We'd also like you to answer the following question:
Which American poker player would you most like to have as a house guest - and why?
Plus, as we all know, Ed's cinematic knowledge is sadly lacking, so can you please nominate the best American film of the last 20 years? Assuming the G-Man hasn't seen it (it's a fair assumption), we can hopefully persuade him to watch the DVD in the next seven days and give us his own review next Sunday

Spot Prize, hmmmmmm.
Just watched Back to the Classroom 1 with Richard on BLUFFING,
continuity expert got the day off for this production then?
Great bluff hand with Queen of Clubs + Queen of Clubs on the flop, LOL.
Just to let you know, there will be a big slice of The Forum regulars watching the show and the superbowl from Dels Bar tonight, Oh and Rich is there too propping himself up in the corner by the quiz machine. why not come along and join the fun LML is gonna start a game of Beer Pong too
Poker Player : Hellmuth. Hours of fun winding him up.
Excuse the brevity, off out to a live game.
Surely you should've reserved this night off ages ago! And I thought you were a fan! pffft
Disappointed......very disappointed!
Anyway, who's gonna win? I'm just favouring the cheeseheads but it's gonna be a close run thing I reckon!
Have a good show, no doubt I'll catch up with the second two hours of it later!
Chris
Unfortunatly i will be at a Super Bowl Party, ill catch the repeat tho
I think the Packers have a slight edge and will probably win by 3 points.
It'll probably be a low-scoring game (i.e. fewer than 45 points).
And the DVD IDIOCRACY 2006 with Luke Wilson .
hi james /ed
have a great show
the super bowl should be full of corn flakes thats the best bowl
as for films if you it mine is new jack city quality film
as for poker players to lunch
phil helmuth just so i can play that greenday classic american idiot would be quality
ok might be a short lunch but well worth it
thanks sara36dd
US player I'd love to have as a house guest is Tom Dwan, a genius that I can hopefully gain advice from, would love to have a Bud (other beers are available of course) with Phil Laak as well
Best US film is The Hangover, a Vegas classic!
I trust your judgement so Sky Bet gonna hate you!!
Dave
Good luck with the show guys im sure it will b awesome as always!
Ill b watching all night tonight for a change as ive managed to get rid of the wife..... definatly a Brucie bonus as she always destracts me while playing.... so i might actually have a chance of cashing in the Primo tonight as long as she dosnt stumble through the front door half cut to early.... But this will eventually happen!
Being a member of the armed forces my self my favourite american film has to be Full Metal Jacket without a shadow of a doubt!
American poker player as a house geust has to be Shannon Elizabeth.... Need i say more
Look forward to the show as always!
Jen Tilly.
Enough said lol.
Qualified in via two satellites for tonight so hopefully get some hands for you guys.

im always betting that flop after the action before hand, but would like to see what Ed and James think.
Superbowl - Yawn - play for 2 minutes - stop for 5 -play for 2 stop again. And just throw in some timeouts in case the game actually starts flowing
American film -(one thing they are good at) - so many - All the good mobster films and spaghetti westerns but one which sticks out was "Sea of Love" with Al Pacino - Not normally my sort of thing, but gr8 film -
Have a good show guys
Can you show this hand, it was my exit hand however with history.
The guy raised every hand pre flop, so i said ill 3-bet my next button and see what happens. I get the KT and flop broadway. Can i get away on the turn? Obviously my re-raise pre was maybe a bit small however i didnt want to get over commited as this was just a tester to see what my opponent would do while blinds where small.

Rich Orford and Tikay reminds me of Donny and Walter.
Poker player would have to be Phil Laak. I'm curious to find out if he is the reverse of how most people behave when drunk and actually starts making sense.......Oh and he might bring Jennifer with him
Hard to choose one, but it would have to be one of ron jeremys classics i think
and daniel negranu what a great chatty guy he is
