TSP play off predictions/preview.

edited October 2011 in Poker Chat

Who's gonna make it? and why?

My 6 to watch.....

Mixture of head and heart. . . . . . . . .  .

1) Sikas - Best mtt player from the mtt qualifiers by a country mile. Big stack. Has to have a great chance.

2) Jakally - Very consistant MTT player, one of best cash players on the site, prob the best all rounder & 8k starting stack. Probably the favourite to get there.

3) Johnconnor - Bit of an underdog, tipped him a few years ago to be a successful player, can't ignore his 8k stack, and in the top 3 of the SNG qualifiers in terms of ability imo.  Also top 6 qualify, huge experience in pressure bubble situations will be to his advantage. 

4) Runitsrann - Shortstack @ 4k, but blind structure & top 6 ftw will suit. If they were running a book, I'd stick a load on. 

5) Muse12 - Could watch him play cash all day. Most exciting player on the site by far. If he runs good, nobody stands a chance. 

6) Greghogg - By far the largest of all contestants. Worked hard, and sacrificed alot to get to this stage. No1 more deserving of a place on TSP, and must be one of the peoples champions. Very short stack, but when has that ever stopped him. C'mon the Hogg !!!!!

    my six are:-


    1.   sikas - very determined and competent mtt player.  will go well with 10,000 chips.

    2.   tallytink - the best mtt player we have.

    3.   supersnedd - consistently fab.

    4.   runitsrann - crept in as a reserve, is far too good to let the opportunity slip through his fingers.

    5.   gixxerk4 - cashed in luton GUKPT

    6.   elsadog - take away recent form and you have a very good player.. but why take away recent form?


    good luck you six.

    U cant pick all 90, get off the fence for once in your life you useless oval shaped wally.

    hurst05 - got in via the cash section but is an excellent MTT player.  on a shortstack but knowns how to grind things up.  will be an excellent addition to the team and wlll make the most of the opportunity of being in TSP.

    pryce6 - he achkowledges himself that he is the 2nd best looking on the site (behind Chirpychip) so will be an excellent poster boy for the team.

    flashflush - great player.  great guy.  has a decent sized stack.  been an extremely consistant player since the site began and again someone who will make the most of the opportunity that TSP gives.

    coxylboro - probably the best poker player in the qualifer.  after his recent retirement from grinding, will be very nice to see him play a decent tournie under the sky name.  most know him from his cash grinding and insane moves on Top of the Pots etc but his tournie game is immense.

    nutter - deserves this more than anyone else in the list IMO. really hope he gets there.

    sikas - running well and playing well lately.  I agree with doh in that from the MTT list he is so far ahead of the rest its unture.  got a massive stack and probably the favourite to get into the top 6.

    sigh forgot about Greg.  he needs to get into TSP too.  um take nick off my list get Greg in,  i only put him in for comedy purposes anyway.

    ty lol, I pretty much agree with your list btw. defo would have hursty, nutter and flashflush in my top 6.

    true Pryce is misunderstood.  for example, his iPod only has 3 albums on it...all by Leona Lewis.  I hope this shows you the true emotional state and feminine side to this Sky Poker Community legend
  • edited October 2011
    Pryce6- One of the best MTT players on the site, if can get a bit of run good will do well. altho shortish with this structure it shouldnt be a problem plenty of play.

    nutter- Impossible to ignore, probably the best player not in TSP IMO knows exactly what he's doing and correct moves

    Shanxta- If im correct very unlucky last time round, has a great game will certainly play with no fear and ruffle a few feathers

    Corbett04- Consistent grinder has the game and wont just spew of in a bit to sn@tch a place

    Sikas- Top of MTT league and ambitous so has to count for something, will need to play his A game though :)

    Greghogg- People's Champ derserves a hoody just to see if they have it in his size... nah very consistent preformer and ill be rooting for him all the way and splashies :)

    i was listening to a song in the hotel room for the grand final whilst nick used the shower. he came running out with a towel around him screaming leona? leona?
  • edited October 2011


    Elsadog - running well ATM and will love this challenge. Plus it would be nice to see an AREA51 'moaner' on the Sky Poker Team! :)

    Lyonsbob - has a great MTT game and should be in the mix at the end.

    Solack - Always plays well (gets lucky, lol) in most MTT's he enters and I watched him go deep at a side event at DTD. Knows his stuff.

    Hursty - He will probably luck box his way through the field and then do well in the end game. Or, Sky will just rig it like they did with Scotty and get him on the team! :)))) <<<< smillie btw!

    JohnConnor - If nobody has read his thread, he should do well !

    I hope Bromley04, Greghogg & JimHFX also do well for obv reasons.

    I know I have not included any of the cash players above, but as I dont play cash, I could not give my opinion on any of them.

    Anyway.......GL ALL!!!!!

    pmsl his ipod is as bad as mine :) i have heard both too
  • edited October 2011
    I'd like to see

    SuperSnedd - Always in the thick of it!
    Elsadog - Two rollers on the same night
    Solack - Class Act
    GregHog - Laughs with you never at you!
    Gerrard09 - Mr consistency
    Sikas - Put everything in to get to the top

    make the TSP cos we see them week in week out performing on the shows and all of them would hold their own at the highest levels both in play and conduct!
    Sky might want to reenforce some chairs though! lol
    Best of luck to all of you!!

    Pryce6

    Hurst05

    Sikas

    Nutter5932

    Crazyben23 - Just to see his reaction lol after his previous thread

    Splashies - would be good to see him do well after his first quarter of playing the game as a sole income

    heres 7 i want HOGGERS to go deep just because he should !

    will add reasonings to others in a bit, busy atm

    Wiiiii thanks JJ and Max, it's a great compliment to even be mentioned here. It is an awesome line up and I can only dream tbh. I would need to run very well put it that way. I'll post my picks up when I'm a bit less tired and able to look through properly. Two people will be on my list for sure though. I agree with Scotty that Nutter deserves a place on the team more than anyone else. Also, elsadog is such a great MTT player right now. Provided the poker gods don't really frown on him, I would expect him to breeze into the top 6.
  • edited October 2011
    Don't know too much about some of the players but out of the ones I do know my 6 are:

    CoxyLboro

    Jakally

    Elsadog

    Nutter5932

    Muse12

    Hurst05

    Obv would be great if greggles cud get in thou!

    this sunday (9th) at 7.15 pm

    you have been auto regged, just look at your registered mtts, and if you feel like not playing feel free :)

    im sure you have bigger fish to fry innit
  • edited October 2011
    Jackally - Has good game for these slow structures
    Supersnedd - On form, on the rise
    Nutter5932 - Prob the best Sky reg not to make TSP yet imo
    Safc20 - Been running well recently going from strengh to strength
    Peg1 - Difficult to play against - if he gets the right table early could build big early stack
    Corbett04 - Consistant mtt player could just pull this off
  • edited October 2011
    My six are ......

    Elsadog - Wow what an ultra consistent mtt player

    Supersnedd - Another who so regularly cashes well

    Lyonsbob - Smashing mtt player always there or thereabouts

    Lol_Raise - Top cash player who knows the game inside out

    Jakally - Another great cash and mtt player

    Ebberdon - See alot of this player and has a great great game imo
  • edited October 2011
    4 OF MY 6 FROM TOURNY REGS AS I KNOW THEIR GAME BEST

    SIKAS          On fire, can only beat him with sick outdraws !

    ELSADOG     Think he has tampered with the RNG ! Seriously though he has amazing patience when short.

    EBBERDON   Consistent ABC, but can still surprise.

    LYONSBOB    Havent really worked his game out yet, always difficult.

    NUTTER5932 Great allround player, and seems to have added a bit extra to his tourny game.

    PEG1            One of the cash regs who I really find a challenge in tournies (I could add Hursty,                        Coxy , Jakally ,  Lolraise and many more in this category)

    It's such a star-studded field that picking the top 6 is probably harder than picking this weeks Lotto numbers.

    A part of me is hoping the Russian Roulette specialist with a big stack wins through. If he does hopefully it will lead to the barmy situation of league points being awarded for non-skill games getting sorted out.

    Wow I just sharkscoped him, epic graph!

    Can only really comment on the ones i have played against and imo my top 6 would be:

    In no particullar order:

    1= Hurst05 = Very good all round player who imo goes from strength to strength and could go along way at this game.

    2= Supersnedd = Awesome Mtt player and genuine nice guy who seems to live on the final table

    3= TheDart = Another genuine good guy who i havnt played against alot but when i have he seems to do the right things at the right times, starts with a low stack but dont think that will hinder him in anyway and fully expect him to choose his spots and move up that leaderboard.

    4= Style2737 = Very well named player who plays position very well and has a very awkward style of play and could build up a big stack in a short time v players who may not know him

    5= LOL Raise = Another very good all round player who wont be afraid to go with his reads and will punish any sign of weakness.

    6= Gerrard9 = Always in the thick of things in MTTs and a multitabling cash game consistent winner

    In all honesty with two or three exceptions i fully expect the tourney to be dominated by the sites reg cash players but maybe that is me being biased because i would choose a good cash player over a good MTT player everytime.


    Also like others have said i too would love to see GREGHOGG get on the team, ive only been on here a couple of months but to me GREGHOGG is mr skypoker himself.

    Best of luck to all
  • edited October 2011
    Love how Greghogg gets all the "I want him to do well" votes and no1 has come up with a valid logical reason why he can bink this poker tournament! 

    hahahahahahaha

    Useless, oval shaped wally.
  • edited October 2011
    My predictions are

    1/ Coxylboro - like to see him do it - aggressive and great player

    2/ Elsadog - consitent and great performance over last few months

    3/ Gerrard 9 - it's his time and derserves it

    4/ Hust 05 - how he has not managed it yet I do not know

    5/ Jakally - most consitant/solid cash player I know

    6/ Launder - NOT but like him/her to do it - we may see/hear who this person is - LOL

    1st out PEG1 followed by MUSE12

    I think it's too close to call - any 6 can go through from that field.

    However, the class act is Nutter5932
