    Very slim I'd imagine.

    Very dry humour : Tick.

    Insistence he'd have played every hand better : Tick.

    Excellent hand analysis : Tick.

    Sooo looking forward to this. Sky+'d already.

    I've heard him commentating a few times and he's totally different to when he's playing at the table.

    If only I could read poker hands so well.

    A fantastic guest and absolutely superb analysis.

    Cringeworthy at times some of what he had to analyse. Did the handpicker deliberately pick poorly played hands for Luke to comment on to rile him? What a waste. Get him back on for mastercash plz.

    I think some people were expecting him to be jumping about the studio calling Carlo a donk and swearing or something. The boy's not thick, he's not Ozzy Osbourne. It's somewhat overlooked how fantastic a poker player Luke is. Aye, he's been entirely out of order at the tables at times. But he is also one of the best poker commentators about.

    Humble's maybe stretching it but he came across as a very decent boy, no? Superbly honest and I value honesty above many, many things.

    Another brilliant guest amongst many sky.

    Nowt against Sarah or Carlo but get him on with Rich/James and Ed next time plz? Funny as Luke was, he's capable of more. Carlo's a great guy but seemed to talk over him too often IMHO. At least Tikay knows when he can get paid without talking when Jackson, Channing etc are on, lol.

    Got to be honest not the biggest Like shwartz fan.

    But was fixated watching it through last night.

    I get so frustrated in MTT's due to people just not thinking and playing just awful poker.  Was hugely refreshing for  people to be called on it.

    It takes brutal honesty for people to get the message sometimes.

    Also thought Citrone Did an Amazing job of balancing some of the critique with leaning it towards a learning curve.

    Must see TV.

    In the midst of prepping tonight's live show so haven't got time to go into a huge answer here, but I'm well chuffed that everyone seemed to rate Luke coming on the show.

    I thought he was excellent and knew exactly where the boundaries where. I also thought Carlo and Sarah did a sterling job in getting the best out of him.

    Cheers for all the feedback guys- hopefully we'll get him back soon!

    Carlo wasn't talking over him, he was laughing hysterically at a lot of his analysis, but Carlo reigned in Luke's comments by saying that he's not expecting people to be playing on an elite level and maybe the plays weren't representative etc.

    If he just echoed/egged on Luke a bit more, the hand analysis might have come across as condescending and even cruel, which wouldn't do the site any favours and wouldn't have made for great watching.
