A few questions to put to you...
1. How important is ego in poker? Or is better not to have one? Most poker players I know do have one though 
How big is your ego?!
How big is your ego?!2. What would your poker 'top tip' be, if you had to film one for us!?
thinking caps on, would be lovely to hear from you on the show tonight. Stuart's analysis is always great, so I look forward to learning a fair bit!
Now...off to the gym to counteract the family sized bag of giant buttons I ate last night.

Top Tips:
1.Before sitting down ensure you have CLEAR - REALISTIC - ACHIEVABLE - TARGETS
2. Only enter a hand if you are prepared to commit before the flop! Too many chips are squandered folding to a re-raise
3. Playing Cash always have an exit strategy in place be it how much you want to win or how many reloads if you lose.
Apologies for three instead of one! Have a great show and I hope Stuart's not daunted that he's got a lot to live up to

Let the conspiracy continue!
Hi all looking forward to tonights show.
In regards to your questions
1. I think you need to try and have no ego in poker as people will just try that bit harder to beat you lol.
2.My tip would be to take your time with your decisions and dont rush in to making a silly play when ur steaming from previous hands. Every day is a school day you have too keep learning to get better at poker.
In respose to your questions.
1) I think it is relatively important to have an ego in poker as long as it is in control. You have to believe in your own abilities and recognise when you have an edge/ or the others have an edge in a particular game.As long as the ego is based on fact and not overinflated then it will be an asset to you. It only becomes an issue if you let it control you.
2) For my top tip. When playing PLO8 A2xx is not the nuts and you should not be playing every hand just because it contains this. It will win some pots , split others and cost you a lot in chasing. So be more selective and have backups available before entering a pot.

THE OLYMPIC STADIUM HAS LOST ITS RINGS
please can stuart anaylise the play on the following hand. he is right about knowing what to do before u make a bet and on the end i was going to Bet Fold, then i remembered from ages ago that Porko is capable of bluffing so... was i right to tank call?
not a brag honest, i was genuinly confused on that board! also maybe my turn bet isnt enough?

Yes I have a poker ego and yes, when I play I check it at the door and only pick it back up when I turn my laptop off. I have lost too much money playing with ego to do it again. I can lose money quite easily without having to fight my ego too.
My poker top tip would be to relax and not to worry if you lose a lot of chips early in a tourny. You still have enough relative to the blinds to make a comeback.
Have fun and see you on the tables
cheers, really enjoying the show

you got competition Ryan lol
that hand confused me... tbf u had the nuts or nothing.. assume by your comments you had quad 7s or a full house, suppose u coulda flopped the flush! i hope they show this now lol
ur bet size was fine imo, i was considering reshipping ai as a pure bluff!
Loving the show.
Question regarding the KK v QQ hand. In an average situation, was Glitterbabe cold 4betting his Queens turning them into a bluff? If not, what is the bottom of our cold 4bet for value range without table dynamics in your opinion?
Great show and great analysis.
If you get a minute take a look at this hand. From a world of pleasure to a world of serious pain in 1 card!!1
Did I play too slow....or was I a victim of circumstance?
Many thanks,
Keep up the good work.
