Master Cash with James & Trevor (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***)

edited April 2011 in Poker Chat
Wow...what a week for on-line poker.  A huge development, affecting everyone who plays the game.  One of the most dramatic things to ever happen to the Internet gambling industry.  I'm sure you've read about it on the forum, on Facebook and on Twitter...

Yes, Sky Poker's Master Cash tables now allow you to buy in for 200bbs!

So, prepare yourselves for some deep stack cash action from 9pm.  Trevor and I (happy, Tikay?) will be your hosts, guiding you through four hours of six-max No Limit Hold'em on channel 865, including the five biggest hands of the week in Top of the Pots.

Our primary focus will still be the £1.50/£3 tables - which used to be called 'Cash 300', but now, are more like 'Cash 600'.  The place to play is Master Cash 16 & Master Cash 17.  Make sure you have a read of THIS.

Finally, let's have a bit of fun.  Seeing Tikay struggle with his smartphone (despite Machka's best efforts) made me wonder how many rogue texts, e-mails and tweets he must send on a daily basis.

So, what's the most embarrassing e-mail, text or tweet you've ever sent?

A message addressed to the wrong person?  Predictive text / auto-correct completely changing what you meant to say?  Hitting 'send' by mistake when you were still at draft stage?

Please make us laugh :)

    not one to read out, but I am sure we have all sent a text to one of the blokes down the pub and accidently put a X on the end

    I think I must do it a couple of times a week

    Looking forward to the show

    Embarassing emails is a bit of a sore subject at the moment as my mum asked me the other day if i would stop sending her emails at work - I explained for the 100th time it wasn,t me and just to delete them

    About 2 years ago i got an email of a lady friend

    If you want to see me playing with myself just click on this link"

    If it had been anyone else I would never have clicked it but this was a lady i,d met through a "specialsed" dating site and din,t think anything of it so was suprised to see the link direct me to another dating site that I,d never been on before.
    I phoned her up and asked what it was and she said she never sent it

    When I went back to wrk on Monday I was shocked and suprised when a girl I knew came up to me in front of everyone and slapped me in the face. She called me a pervert and told me to stop sending her dirty emails

    To cut a long story short the original link contained a virus which sent out emails even when i wasn,t at my computer to all my contacts with all sorts of strange messages. It wouldn,t have been so bad if my contact list didn,t include my family, friends and even managers at work.

    I spent numerous hours deleting all my contacts and have never used the email address since. I also have a new computer with anti-virus but even now a cpl of years on I,m getting ppl telling me they are still receiving emails from this old address - It has caused numerous problems for me and even now the email address in question is still active, even though Hotmail say it becomes inactive after x amount of days without being used

    ps   Any help or advice on how to get in touch with hotmail and actually speak to someone about this would be appreciated

    HI do you no wot table you are starting on

    just wanted to ask Trev a quick question

    I noticed today during the FA cup semi final that after 82 minutes when Man City were 1-0 up that on the exchanges it was 6/1 for a 1-1 draw.   I realise man Utd were down to 10 men, but considering you normally get that price at the start of a match is this something to look out for in the future as when in this position the opposition are normally pushing for the equaliser and the leaders are trying to hold on to it

    Is this a good bet to look out for in the future for in-running betting for football matches or do you think it was just because Man utd were down to 10 men?

    Paul

    ps - cheers for knocking me out of the TSP classic last night. I was low stacked anyway and as a result I decided to play the £200 velocity which was just starting and managed 3rd for £69

    A few years back I had a phone call from a friends wife who was laughing hysterically.  She said that he had been explaining to her that over the last few months I'd been sending texts to him and sometimes ending them with "lol".  He asked her why I was ending my messages with "Lots Of Love"?

    What worried me in this was that he had been replying for a good couple of months before mentioning it to anyone!

    (On a related note I heard someone managed to accidentally delete an entire thread off a forum whilst browsing it on their phone, must have been a right technophobe!  NOT the Sky Poker forum I must add)

    Its madness folding AK in any cash game, instead of folding, the player should have 4bet!

    Not exactly me, but I do know someone who had an embarrassing incident on a forum. 


    He asked a question on a forum, asking for embarrassing texts and emails, and actually posted it ON the forum.
    The answers were to be read out on tv too. 

    The question flunked and he had to offer prizes just to get people to send in some answers!!!

    Not even Orford had this problem :/
