Hi all!
Wow October 1st and it is suuuuper hot today. Hope you will be joining us tonight for loads of cash and Top of the Pots. It will be a special show tonight as there will be 2 ladies tonight...poor Tikay!
Please get your questions in for journo turned poker pro Jen Mason, either on the forum or on the email, we would love to hear from you!
skyopen@bskyb.com
As always we will have a couple of topics running tonight,
1. Get your geek on.... what do you geek out over!??
This is with regards to my recent tweets to Tikay about motorway services and train stations... both of which I actually do share his love with! who knew!!
I also geek out over Lenses, photoshop, collecting and keeping my elle magazines in order of date and movies
2. educational topic...
how do you deal with poker 'loud mouths' in the chatbox, or at the table?? Does it sometimes help your game having someone like that on your table? Are you sometimes that person at the table?
OK see you soon, this week, I hosted a poker game for Manutd players...(they were mediocre at best!) and lost a memory card with an entire shoot on it (the pain...)

Looking forward to the show & welcome to Sky Poker, Jen.
The main things I geek over is Guitars & Blues Music ... although I may switch to trains and service stations because I'm very close to Crewe and also equidistant between Keele & Sandbach services - Jealous, Tikay?
Have a great show
Like loose instead of lose, or off instead of of? Or their there they're...
Plenty there to tilt you, job done for tonight.
Hope you got the defibrillator ready Anna
Have a good un

1 /> What do I geek out over ?
Anything to do with great design, be it gadgets, cars, buildings, websites, basically anything that has a purpose, does the job it's made to do well, looks nice and breaks a few boundaries.
I'm also a fellow Photoshop geek and I spend far too much time and money buying hi-fi gear.
2 /> How do I deal with loudmouths ?
I do the typically british thing of ignoring them. I sometimes make a comment if I win alot of chips off them but more often than not, a simple smile and a thankyou winds them up enough.

Regarding poker loudmouths i just ignore them i dont care what they say it is only how they play that i take note of.
Would never be seen being geeky, totally not my image.
2. Dealing with poker loud mouths.
Live - just ignore them, if they are busy shouting their mouth off they're too busy paying attention to the cards.
Online - laugh at them getting wound up over a game which is supposed to be fun.

I geek out big time over wrestling and have done for as long as I can remember. I have a fairly extensive DVD and magazine collection and I'm off to Wrestlemania for the second year in a row next year. All I need to do now is to bink a tourney or two too pay for it lol.
I like having loudmouths in the chatbox, gives me something to laugh at.
If you are ever in my area then you may enjoy a visit to the Rushden transport museum. It is situated in a 1894 station, the year of Tikay's birth if I remember correctly, and is full of old railway and transport memrobelia. Not only that, entrance is free!!! http://www.rhts.co.uk/ if you are interested.
I'd love to hear her opinion on a thought I have? I personally think that while the events of Black Friday have effectively closed down internet poker in the United States, when these events are settled and the Internet Gaming Act repealed, there are Casino based companies using the black out as a reboot and will pump a lot of money into new pokersite launches to make a grab for a huge market share in the internet poker market. Sites we've never heard of will become the biggest pokersites in 5 or 6 years or so.
I have a poker loudmouth living with me! It's not just at the tables, its all day every day, I have to look at her final table trophy on the mantelpiece and she has got her result posted on the Hendon Mob database!
Why did you let Yorkie74 final table the SPT Grand Final!!
Geek out moments! It's collecting $1 chips from Vegas establishments, even got one from the Cosmopolitan!

One of the greatest characters in poker and I love how he includes facts like just ordering but waiting for a Guiness when calculating implied odds in a hand.
Now she's been on the show for a while. Played in two Tournaments and gone deeper than all the more experienced male presenters on each occasion.
Does she find she reads the game easier now? does she have the confidence to advise others if she thinks they're making bad plays?
Does she think her looks and femine charm give her an edge? or does she think blokes have the advantage on the table? Has she made any incredible bluffs and who did she pull the wool over?
Anna = The Glamazon
Orford = Doink the clown
You may need Jen to dechiper this
Please could you ask her who she thinks is going to win tomorrow between CM Punk, John Cena and Alberto Del Rio in the Hell in a Cell Main Event.
Also, what is it exactly about 'Apex Predator' Randy Orton that she finds so attractive? Does it have anything to do with his six-pack and copious use of baby oil?

Anna, I noticed you were very quiet when the subject of middle names came up, almost as if you was hoping no one asked you yours. Was you trying to work out if yours is as bad as Jens?
