How good is Richard Orford?

Sky_Poker

As Richard Orford will have told you, many, many times, he is on a golden run.

His second in the TSP classic the other night comes hot on the heels of his stint in Team Sky Poker, playing at the GUKPT in Walsall, winning the side event at SPT Leeds (has he mentioned that?). He won an Open once too!

He is an inspiration to us all!

So here's the question? Should he sit the analysts chair instead?

How about he does both jobs? Moving from one chair to the next, talking to himself:
 
- "What do you think of that Rich?"
- "Thanks for asking Richard, I'm glad you asked..."

- "My you look lovely tonight Rich"
- "Thanks Richard, you're not so bad yourself"

Maybe he could present, analyse, play, produce, make his own tea and put on his own make-up and turn the lights out when he leaves?

Oh and in case you didn't know, he won the Leeds SPT side event.

Oh and in case you didn't know, he won the Leeds SPT side event.

Oh and in case you didn't know, he won the Leeds SPT side event.

MAXALLY

He is still not as good as Richard Bacon.

Did we mention that he won the Leeds SPT side event?

Kill me now.

What is more, the guy who ALLOWED him to win that Leeds SIDE event, gixxer, is the Studio Guest on Sunday, when the wazzock will be the Presenter, & I will be in the co-pilots seat.

It just gets worser & worser.

Still, every dog has his day. Nice jacket, wazz.

This is a trick question, right?

Who gave Orford the Sky Poker log in details?????

I'm not sure there are any presenters that could 'cue' Rich as well as he 'cues' himself ;o))

Blatent thinly veiled request for Rich to work with the ladies innit??

Get LML back in the Presenters chair...she'd keep in him check...plus it would be comedy gold tv!!!

did not see him win that side event, seen him play at luton.  He was playing scrabble before the end of the first level

How good is Richard Orford ? Depends on who we're comparing him too.

I wish there was more info on how he got on in that little side event thingy in Leeds.

Not seen it mentioned yet.

Do you really think we'd allow Richard access to this?

Here is proof - I LOVE TIKAY (you know he would never say that!)

just wanna say that Orford was only 3 outs away from taking down the TSP Classic last night!

be glad that the Sky RnG did its work as the bragging woulda been non stop come Sunday!

Thankyou Ryan, at last some support. Nobody believes how close I came to winning the TSP Classic last night. And believe me, I've told everybody.

Similarly I've won the Open (have I mentioned that before?) and a few months ago suffered another 3-outer overturn which prevented me from taking down the Open again, instead having to settle for runner-up.

So, obviously I'm counting that as a victory, along with my SPT side event win.

Therefore I now have FOUR major titles under my belt. And I play once a week.

I may be mentioning this on Sunday night's show...

Errrr - I don't just beleive - I KNOW how close you were to taking the TSP Classic down as I was on the rail. I know we had a deal that if you didn't finish 13th you would have to take it down. but i'm not too dissapointed and nore should you be. It was a vallient effort and very unluck at the end.

WD Rich you were awsome.
