Hi all,

Big show for you this Tuesday night.

I'll be here...



...along with the return of Il Citrone!


And check this out for a massive double whammy..

On the sofa with us from 8pm will be EPT Winner Rupert Elder...


...AND one of the world's most successful female players Melanie Weisner.


What a show that's going to be!

Viewer competition is simple- a free seat into Thursday night's 8pm Bounty Hunter for the best question or comment to our guests.

So, get writing! The two of them will be analysing your hands and fielding your questions throughout the night, so take advantage.

Show starts at 7, see you there!

    Question for both guests

    In what way if any do they change their preperation for a tournament not at home(e.g. when staying in a hotel)?

    And how does that compare to how they then play a tournament online? 

    And what advice would they offer for an online player whos an online player who maybe plays in a local venue live whos going to play their first major live event (examples being SPT, WSOP, EPT and UKIPT)

    Thats sorta one big merged question hope thats acceptable.

    Evening all, and congratulations to Carlo on finally escaping Las Vegas!

    My question to the guests is quite a simple one, as professional poker players do they believe they will ever have to get a normal job again, and if so what would they expect to do

    thanks

    Brilliant lineup again Sky....  well apart from Richard ;o).  I'm sure you'll do great mate... just dont talk about Poker and you'll be fine.

    Question for Melanie..  Can I have your Phone number ;o).  Seriously though I'd like to hear Melanines take on the Womens Tourny at the WSOP and also her opinion of the males that insisted on playing it.

    By the way has anyone else compared the size of the chip stacks in the photo's.  Poor Richard ;o)

    Played heads up against Elder once a few years ago. Wasn't even for that long but consider him my toughest opponent in my 6 years of professional play. 

    Listen to what he says guys...

    Thanks Pete. Funnily enough I choose the photos so can only blame myself. 

    That said, as we all know- it's not the size of your stack that counts, it's how you shove it in. ;-)

    Good questions everyone, keep them coming please!

    Hi Sim, I appreciate that big up for tonight's guest. We really do have two big guns on this evening- prepare yourselves for fresh insight and new takes on how to play the game we all love. It's always fascinating to hear what our guests have to say about the same scenarios that come up every week on the show (e.g 2x, 2.5x, 3x?) because no two answers are ever the same!

    I would like to Ask:

    How the panel select the tournaments they enter?

    Is prize money better than prestige?

    As far as enjoyment goes, which is better. Live or Online?

    Are there any players they deliberately try to tilt? or any players that try deliberately to tilt them?

    And excluding the side event supremo who plays the best poker out of the three of them?

    I'm sure tonight is going to be special!

    Have a great Show!

    Questions for the guests.  Have you ever been late for a tournament and then been out after two hands?
    Who is the best talker you have ever been seated with?
    If poker wasn't in your life what would you do?
    How annoyed do you get when you have AA in the big blind and everyone folds?
    Can anyone beat Man City in this years premiership?
    Have you ever seen anyone with a better tan then Carlo's?
    How annoying are some of these non poker related questions?

    Have a great show all and run well

    Hi Rich.
    Just seen that pic of Melanie Weisner. That's a BIG Stack She has :) but you know I mean the chips right? What event was that picture taken at?

    Right, lets see if we can put our guests on the spot..............................
     
    Question to Rupert Elder........
    If you had to play Melanie Weisner Heads Up for a WSOP Bracelet........What weaknesses do you think she has that you might be able to exploit.

    Question to Melanie Weisner........
    If you had to play Rupert Elder Heads Up for a WSOP Bracelet........What weaknesses do you think he has that you might be able to exploit.

    Question to Carlo "Tantastic" Citrone........
    If you had to play Richard Orford Heads Up for a WSOP Bracelet........What weaknesses do you think he has that you might be able to exploit.

    YES.....I Know what you're thinking Carlo.........It's quite unlikely to ever happen, but just answer the question for our amusement :).

    Have a great show Guys & Girls.

    Wow, a great choice of guests. I'll be recording the show (and watching as soon as the Olympics have finished).

    I remember railing Rupert in a Sky Roller tournament a month or two after his EPT win. To my surprise he was polite enough to acknowledge railers and answer questions in the chatbox; a true gent of the game.

    Question for Melanie and Rupert; Are you a couple?

    Hi guys.

    Have a good show.

    Hand request for you.

    I folded this hand totally on my reads of the player i was up against, i think at best i am splitting v him but most probably because of the hand ive got i am putting him on AA.

    Flame away :)

    Hand id: 550443263  mastercash 3  7/8/2012.

    Cheers.

    Daz.

    good evening gents

    enjoying the show so far - and i am sure it can only get better.  welcome back Carlo.  my question for both guests is, how hard was it to get through the losses and bad times when you were starting out?  i am finding things tough and am thinking of having a break to see if things improve after that.  i know i can play reasonably well because i have had some ok wins and places but these have been few and far between lately.  i play mainly tournaments and dyms cause i never win at cash.

    i am not moaning by any means as i know that, "poker is a never ending game"  and there is a lot of variance in tournament play.  enjoy yourselves and have fun tonight.

    onwards and upwards :-))

    Hi again guys.

    Re my KK fold ive got to say i am amazed he had QQ in that spot but even though i folded the winner i will also say that the way i play in general i would still be folding in that spot v players of that type.

    I know your prob gonna say i lose value long term doing that type of stuff but the way i see it is i would rather give up on the £3.50 i put into the pot and fold it in a situation where i dont feel confident and concentrate more on taking on the players who i feel do stuff like that with much lighter holdings.

    Besides we all know the queen was coming on the river lol

    One of these days Rich mate i might just look good in a hand request i send in lol

    Cheers again
