Tues night Live Show with Fowler, Jen Mason and special guest Rod Stirzaker ****official show thread

Awkward moment with QQs on Master Cash table.

Villain raises UTG 5x and I elect to 3bet to isolate pre-flop.

He calls. Flop comes K94 rainbow. He checks I bet 3/4s pot and he calls.

He checks the turn which is a 2 and I elect to check behind fearing the worst. (Is this a mistake?)

The river brings an inconsequential 7 and he bets £8 into nearly £11 and I elect to fold.

Is this too nitty?

Can I have the hand shown so I can have your expert opinion and a look at their hole cards please?

I discussed the hand with a poker buddy who also plays on the site and he thought I should have bet the turn and probably called the river bet if I had checked the turn. He thought that there were few hands in his range that could have had a King in them, given that a KJ or KQ likely would not have called the reraise and an AK probably would have 4bet preflop. He thinks pairs Jacks- 66 are most likely.

    Hello Poker peeps,

    All back from Blackpool and rested??!  What a brilliant tournament and weekend.  For those who missed out, all the behind the scenes gossip on the show tonight! From Steve, the man who wiped out 16 players (including Jen) despite having his beer goggles on, to balloon modeling and Big Dipper disappointment! If you would also like to share your memories please share them on here!

    Personally I thought this tournament was one of the best to rail, the layout of the tables and the BH element made it really fun watching the action.
    I have brought back a little souviner, and no not the sweet shaped dummies bought for me by Milner (not sure what he was trying to say!) but a photo of Greghogg, which I will be using as a PICTURE CAPTION COMPETITION :)) (don't worry hoggers, it's the clean version!)  Photo coming soon...


    OK then, so what do we have for you tonight!!

    I am still hungover.. that five hour train journey back to Folkestone yesterday was painful!

    seriously... aint got a clue what picture u will be using as i don't remember much at all about Sunday, apart from playing with a balloon fashioned into a sword... well i was until Ebberdon decided to put the sword down his trousers...

    Oh and beating Giant811, Tommyd and Tempusfuget at crazy golf! Although i managed to snap the club somehow, but as i run good, i got away with the £10 fine :) Giant not being able to reach the floor with his club was an advantage too! :)

    All i know is it that the SPT weekend was a great laugh and great to see so many familar faces in Blackpool and meet some new ones too like borinloner and Fredsgirl!

    Before the picture comes up can I guess the Caption reads:-

    Blackpool Rocks!

    No, it's not an earthquake!
    it's Hoggers taking his seat!

    Lol! Surely whatever it shows, it has to be:

    The Big One in Blackpool

    Sorry, Greg. You give as good as you get, obv. ;-)

    I have a couple or three memorable highlights from SPT Blackpool.

    and in no particular order.................

    1. Sitting next to Jen Mason. (All be it briefly just before Steve "The Head Crusher" binked v Jens AK all-in, if I remember correctly?
    2. Taking a Bounty (Not as many as Steve "The Head Crusher" but they all count :)
    3. Steve looking through his beer goggles at Anna and saying "You Look Much Better on TV than you do live"  although i'm sure he meant to say it the other way round lol, and then Anna calmly leaning forward and saying "Can You Even See Me?" a classic comeback in an awkward situation if ever I heard one lol.

    Anyway, it was very nice to meet you both and a brilliant weekend, have a great show.

    "...all the behind the scenes gossip"? Are you sure about that, Anna?
    Well, I suppose if Jimmy Carr can still be allowed on TV, then your career just might survive. You know what I'm talking about.

    It was a good time at the SPT, apart from the Sunday evening when I had to put up with this strange woman wittering on about paper rounds, picking tomatoes and... God knows what else; I wasn't really listening. lol
    I see you've got "Chat Box" on again tonight. That show was made for you, Anna. Shame it's only an hour long, eh? :P

    I jest, I jest. Setting aside all of the hijinks I think it was a terrific tournament and many congratulations to Andrew1947 as well as the rest of the final table. Playing on through the England match can't have been beneficial to their concentration.

    Good times were had. Sadly Jen ran off on Sunday before I could get a word in but it was particularly pleasing to speak with Giant811, GREGHOGG, The_Don90 and of course the lovely(ish) MissFowler. Shame you all won't be back for a year.

    Have a great show ladies.

    See you in a min...

    Xxx

    If somehow can be defined as missed a sitter of a putt, swore and jammed the club into the floor with all of your frustrated might then yes Greg, you somehow snapped the club.

    Just e-mailed an alternative caption through!
  • edited June 2012
    I've got a caption for the competition:

    "GREGHOGG looks on in fear of what's about to happen with that pink balloon"

    Or alternatively:

    "Anna Fowler tries to deflect attention from her own scandalous behaviour by announcing a caption competition"

    :)

    Hi Anna!

    Let's get it right: I threatened to push you over and kick you in the shins. The details are important.
  • edited June 2012

    my caption guesses have greg saying...





    "Lager."

    or

    "Burger."

    or

    "No, nothing for me thanks."




    or

    "No, nothing for me thanks.  But my puppy would like a Lager and a Burger."

    Hi ladies

    Have a good one...

    'Where did all my chips go?', or, 'Did you eat my chips?' is about as far as would be proper...

    Hi all.  I loved being in Blackpool.  Highlights?  Taking a bounty by calling an all in blind and going threeway to the flop.  Oppos turned over AJ and pocket 5's and I saw my cards for the first time, the mighty 6 2 off!  Long story short I hit rivered a 6 high flush!  I think my Darlek and Cyberman card protectors may have had something to do with it!  Oh, I hope you enjoyed the sweets Anna.

    For the caption, Hoggers is saying/sluuring "Do you want to be the next Spurs manager?"

    Have a great show

    Be careful what you wish for!
    After an amazing run in Brighton final tabling next to the glamorous Jen Mason
    his Blackpool wish for a beautiful lady with great puppies was destined to failure!
    Right time wrong table!

    Hi Anna & Jen,

    SPT Blackpool was great! The less said about the main event the better, but I did a cash in the Sunday side event. 

    It was great to get to chat to both of you. 

    Also met so many of my poker friends and acquaintances, and not a bad apple amongst them. 
    A few highlights:
    - Irene, the captain of the might TKP, is a bit crazy and has limitless energy. 
    - The Don is impossible to understand at least half the time.
    - Greghogg got out-drunk by a (freds)girl.
    - BorinLoner is one of the nicest guys I have ever met.
    - The weather made it very easy to spend most of the weekend inside in the casino.
    - Crazy golf is mad fun, even in the rain.
    - Did I mention I did a cash?

    Folks from Blackpool - Sandgrown'uns or sometimes sandgrowniuns. See my knowledge.

    I'm not coming across very well in tonights show. I don't think I'll be welcome at another SPT at this rate.

    ...or you can just say "People from Blackpool". That's what I do.

    Just a point on the massive raise sizing at micro stakes....

    Remember all the limping you were seeing on mastercash? Well the massive raising is the only way to avoid going to a flop multi way at these levels. I started to raise 5x at 2p/4p because 16p raising was taking me to every flop 4 and 5 handed!
