*****Thursday night live with Sarah Champion, Tony tikay Kendall and poker journalist Barry Carter -
We're live on 865 from 8pm tonight and from 10pm on Sky Sports 4 focussing on our featured tournaments the 12K Bounty Hunter and the 5K Sky Roller. If you're taking part in either tournament and have a hand request you'd like analysed let us know the hand ID below and we'll get it on the show....
Tonight we have the pleasure of poker journalist Barry Carter live in the studio and since Barry is a man of many words we're talking
POKER LINGO
You know your kickers from your cowboys course you do, but poker does have a language of its own entirely deserving of it's own show, SO we'd love your POKER LINGO talk tonight...
Do you have a favourite? (I learnt 'double belly buster' recently which I LOVE sounds like something you might order with chips...)
Do you have a term specific to you and your poker buddies? (is AQ your 'Freddie Mercury'?)
AND on the off chance there's a phrase or description that foxes you completely, feel free to post that as well, our experts are on hand to explain every word, term and funny phrase
*disclaimer: we'll give it a go*
That's all for now folks, gl on the tables and see you later!

Was great to meet up with everyone again at The SPT Grand Final last weekend.
Can I just say a few thank you's
Firstly to The Sky poker Crew present, and the organisers at DTD for the support shown to my good friend DTWBANDIT (Michael).
But mostly to all on The Sky Poker Community who really rallied around him this week.......... The community on here sets Sky Poker apart from any other site IMHO and this week has shown what it is all about, so thank you all...........
And especially to JJ (Dohhhhhhh) you are a star m8
In our home game A-8 is always referred to as "The Viz", in honour of the drunken character Eight Ace, who appears in the famous adult comic.
I also use him as my forum avatar at the moment.
WOULD LIKE TO SAY BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TIKAY AND SOLARCARRO AT DTD
Loved my first SPT event at the weekend and am looking forward to getting to a few in the next year, assuming I can satillite in of course.
For my poker hands, I call 43 the girls, only because my girls are 4 and 3 and I have learnt that 52 is the new aces. If you were on my table at the SPT you will understand that as 52 seemed to be ahead on 80% of the flops!
Hi guys, I like the "steel wheel" for the A-5 straight flush, triple barrel with an airball or just sticking it in their eye!
Question for Barry/Tikay- what is an "over limp"? Paul Jackson mentioned it in a recent artcle.
Evening,
Favourite poker expressions.
- 4 betting lite.
- Anna Kournikova, AK, beautiful, but never wins anything
- ...and Ian Frazer's "the baked beans" - QQ
Have a great show all
Dan

Tell Barry thanks for the personal message in the book - love it!!!
