Sky Poker Television presents Sunday Night Live with Rich and Tikay!
Greetings one and all,
Announcing this weekend’s big live show on your dedicated Sky Poker television channel:
Sunday Night Live with Rich and Tikay
With all this..!
7pm-8pm – Live cash coverage and a look ahead to Sunday’s big games
8pm-9pm – Analyse My Play – My play on the Mastercash tables this weekend gets ripped apart by Tikay!
9pm-10pm – Poker School – Playing large pocket pairs in Cash (Qs, Ks and Aces)
10pm-11pm – Top of Sky Poker – coverage of Sunday night’s Viva Las Vegas Semi Final
11pm-12pm – Sky Poker Highlights – coverage of Sunday’s £10K GTD Primo
So- we’re looking for your hand requests from the two tournaments above plus any Mastercash tables and any thoughts/hands on our Poker School subject of playing big pocket pairs in cash.
And for a bit of Easter hols fun...
Who would you be totally starstruck by if you were ever to meet them? (Poker or non-poker)
I actually met Tom Dwan once and was a little starstruck as I think he has some serious presence and star quality at the poker table.
Also I reckon if I ever met Steven Spielberg I’d be lost for words. What do you say to the guy whose films you’ve seen hundreds of times and who has heard it all before from fans and interviewers alike?
So who, in poker or otherwise, would make you tongue-tied/weak at the knees/lose the plot in front of, if you ever met them in real life?
Best message contribution to the show this week wins free entry into the Sky Sports Bounty Hunter main event this coming Thursday night, which could be worth thousands to you.
We start at 7pm Sunday night- we’ll see you there!

Good evening Mr. Orford and Mr. Kendall.
Richard, after harrassing you all night on Wednesday I promised to send in a hand that I butchered, so here it is:
#504688134 (20:57 11/04/2012) from Wednesday's double-stack.
It's a wonderful example of how to haemorrhage half of your stack with big slick. I bet-called on the turn because I felt if he'd had an overpair he would have either raised the flop or wouldn't raise now, so his range was basically either a monster (Quads or a house) or nothing... and I beat all the nothings. I wasn't concerned about straights since only gut-shots had made it on the turn and I didn't see A2 calling a pre-flop 3-bet... but there you go. I made a mess of it.
I would be delighted if you weren't able to show this hand. The Primo and Viva Las Vegas are far more important than embarrassing me, right?
Good luck for the show. I can't wait for Tikay to get stuck into your play.
Who would I be starstruck by in poker? Nobody.
I don't do heroes and if I did they wouldn't be poker players. We're all just people that play a game of cards.
Maybe Henry George Blogg would be my hero if I had any. Look him up. Brave chap.
Hand History #505668946 (00:23 14/04/2012)
Here are a couple of hands from a mastercash table last night both showing one of the things Tikay always trys to drum into people that 1 small mistake can lead to a massive loss.
The first hand the mistake was all mine through trying to get to jiggy out of position
Hand id = 505973485 action table 40
The 2nd hand was the mistake of my opponant and the reason for my massive raise pre was because i expected to be called in 2 spots not only 1
Hand id = 506022982 action table 40
Looking forward to a ABSOLUTELY SENSATIONAL show
ARAZI

Sorry guys i just realised that action table 40 didnt have a tv icon so you prob wont be able to show those 2 hands.
I will post 1 more hand from last night and its from mastercash table 11 hand id 505897729
Just wondering would this go down as a fold 100% of the time because i have the minimum invested and i think i am chopping at best because i dont think anyone could be crazy enough to be betting a flush here thinking it is good ?
Also the reason i checked behind on the flop is because i have notes on my opponant saying he always checks monster hands on the flop
Daz

Poker -wise I would like to meet the awesome and very vocal Daniel Negreanu. I don't think It would be a case of me being tongue-tied, more likely to be me trying to get a word In edgeways!
Non - poker Billie-joe Armstrong from the band Green Day. I would definitely go weak at the knees but not through being starstruck!
Have a good show gentlemen x
Great answers on the starstruck topic, and some good hands coming in for us to look at.
If you see or are involved in anything involving pocket Qs, Ks or Aces on a Mastercash table that you think would be interesting for our Sky Poker School show at 8pm on playing large pocket pairs I cash then please drop us the hand i.d. number on here along with a few thoughts.
Here's a TV poker hand of a big pair that would intimidate most, lol.
Will this get past the mods?
found this one from mastercash 2 on 11th April
Didnt involve me, i just think its an interesting hand

2 hours to go!
When I work at the BBC i took my friend along to television centre for some recordings. It was the policy for staff at the bbc to ignore any stars. We ended up in the bbc club bar. I was standing at the bar and my friend was just pointing going er er. Noel edmunds was standing behind me having just finishing broadcasting swap shop. Noel said yes it me. She was absolutely star struck and could not say another word. Totally out of character for her
Its great to see the dream team back. Hope i do well last few hands before i go to barcelona for a few days best wishes tina see you in cardiff
Heres a hand from a mastercash table last week involving a big pocket pair.
I was wondering, should i be raising the river here considering my oppo only had just over £35 left and i felt at the time he was doing what he was just because he was on a TV table.
Reason i didnt raise was because if he did have nothing like i felt then he wouldnt be calling anyway and i would only be getting called if my thoughts were wrong and he had me beat.

i was starstruck once when i literally bumped into vanezza feltz in a dark north london street (either that or squashed
on a serious note i used to live 2 minutes walk from the city ground and once upon arriving at the ground the legend that is brian clough was getting out of his car... I was only about 7 and my dad asked him to say hello
"Young man are you here for the game?"
"yes" replied a sheepish me
He then discussed the team with my dad for ten minutes got a signed shirt for me from the players (pearce, des walker era great side) and wished me luck with my own game tommorow...
what a legend.
He never ordered a drink he just sat down and the barman handed him over a bottle of beer(obviously a regular) the barman said to him this is Michael from Scotland i think you could interview him as he is quite witty,i then said to him oh are you a market researcher then mate, he replied yes well you could say that.
I spoke to him for about Ten minutes,he seemed a really nice guy,i then said bye to him as i was going to meet some of my mates, i told them about meeting some market researcher called Jay.
I cant claim to be starstruck with him as how was i supposed to know it was Jay Leno.
+ 1 with Henrik we could have done with him today.
hi richard... good to see you tonight. i didn't realise that your guest this evening is paul o'grady.
