Just wanted to say that i am pretty new to sky poker (3-4months or so) and havnt seen alot of Ed until the last few weeks mostly on the saturday mastercash show.
Im over the moon to hear he is planing on doing alot more shows in future because he is easily one of the best analysts on here and explains things very well.
Just wondering what Eds poker background is eg: his best moment, whats his favourite type of game and at what stakes he plays ?
Thanks for a great show and looking forward to many more to come.
Hi Anna Unfortunately I didn't get to meet you on Saturday as in all honesty I was too intimidated to say hello, you're a stunning young lady in the flesh and that's enough to leave me tongue tied! But it sounds like your SPT experience was very similar to mine, I have seriously never been as card dead as I was after the first break. Once the antes started to kick it was just a slow painful flow of chips away from my stack. I managed to pick up a couple of small pots with 6 7 suited and J 9 off, got caught out with Q 10 off. The one time I picked up a decent hand AK put in a standard raise in 2nd position and everybody foldedto me. In the end I got it all in with 8 9 a mile behind the QQ that called me. As you've intimated Anna I think my mistake was in waiting too long for good cards in good spots instead of changing gears and trying to make things happen a little earlier. Looking back and anylysing my play, I'd be happier if when my stack gets to 15-20 times the BB I take a chance or two, I folded A4 suited and KQ off and pocket 3's at this point of my tourney in spots where I had position and value to get involved. Maybe if I make differnet plays in these situations things work out differently. As others I have said I think so much depends on stack sizes, other players at the table and the the positions you find yourself in that it's almost impossible to generlise. That said there is definately a point at which you have to decide that you're not going to let the blinds and antes wear you down and pick your spots to make some moves. My poker mantra for toureys is 'You just need to win, you don't need to win right now' realistically if you have 10 BB's you're back in the thick of it very quickly. So tight is generally right but sometimes you've just got to take a chance. Posted by Slykllist
