Ask Tikay?

POKEY2011 · October 2011

Sorry IDs were: 422219999 & 422220484

Firstly, good evening to yourself and young Richard, hope your both well and thanks for mention earlier, please check out these two IDs - both in a row in the £1200 TSP classic, Aces both times in consecutive hands, what is the odds of this??? ... thankfully i won both times and got to showdown.

Surely we are looking at 50,000 /1 or more... please let me know and again enjoy your evening the pair of you.

PS after winning the mini event £1000 last night and won £288, i am currently running 3rd in the ,mini bh event tonight.

Cheers

Chris Jones (POKEY2011)

In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : Bit of a barren area for "fully licensed" Live Poker, to be honest. There are a couple of Clubs which do not have a full licence though, & I imagine they would be OK. TC's, in Maidenhead (TC = Tony Chapman, a real old school guy, straight as a die) is pretty good I believe, I've heard pretty good reports about it. Can't think of many others off the top of my head. If you don't mind going down the M4, there is a decent scene in Swindon, again "grey licence" rather than fully licensed.

There is a new poker room in Reading called Duffs I think, not played there but assuming it is properly licensed or is this one of the "grey" licenses you talk of Tikay?

Hi Tikay
jusy a question about these poker points, i have dipped my toe into the world of cash games just at the lower level 4p/8p and 5p/10p am i right in thinking you get 2 points every 20 hands and 1p taken in rake, so my questions are.
Do i have to win the hand? or take any part in it apart from folding lol? does it matter how many people are in the hand? and how much needs to be in the pot for 1p to be taken in rake, i.e what is the percentage? Thanks

I am asking this question as you tell how it is

Over the last few weeks there has been alot of talk in the chat boxes about Sky having in house players playing HU. Personally I have never believed this but there is always a doubt in the back of your mind.

One player mentioned all tjhe time is Macskywer - and I must admit he has never spoken and when I thought I give him a game - he was calling my bets down with nothing then hits on the river - strange but I let it go

Just wanted to get your confirmation that there is no IN HOUSE players - as your word is true

Do not usually listen to gossip but when you play high stakes you want to make sure it is all fair

Thanks

In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : I think you missed the bove questiojn Tikay, lthough i,m not suprised at this seems to be turning into a bad beat thread or something that belongs in Area 51 Since I posted the above question I have phoned up Sky poker, emailed them and sent PM,s to other Sky Poker Staff. I did get a reply to an email saying they were looking into it and would get back to me when they could but that was nearly a month ago. I am going to phone up again. Who would you recommend to ask to speak to as its been almost 9 months now since it finished and not long of a year since it started Cheers Paul

Re : Apprentice Prize

I only chase this up every month now, but still nothing from anyone at Sky despite ppl saying they,ll get back to me on it

Thx

stretch83 · October 2011

Hi Tikay,

I have been playing poker for a total of 3 weeks now, the majority of it on this site

I have also watched hours and hours of CH 865 and have to say the banter between you and orford is pure comedy genius! Keep up the good work

Something I think I really struggle with is confidence against strong positive players who raise strongly and re-raise me when I have decent hands. They can't always have a better hand then me, however I need a strategy to adapt to this kind of play, can you help?

Cheers Tikay!

Hi James, Neil and Carlo

POKEY2011 here - Chris Jones, Bristol

Just a quickie - James cracking impression mate of "Tikay", so good that my 5 week old son Lewis is asleep in his moses basket by me here in the lounge while i play and the tv is on 865, my son Lewis always moves when the poker is on the telly and tikay is on.. subsequently after your "Alistair McGowan" moment, i think little Lewis thought it was TIKAY HIMSELF and then suddenly made a crying sound! lol

Enjoy your evening, runnning well in the sky roller at moment and the mini event - trying to go for the dylan double.

Cheers

Chris J

POKEY2011 · October 2011

Good evening both Richard and Tikay

A big congratulations to Julian Thew aka yo-yo - what a great ambassador to the poker community in the UK and on a global scale.

On a smaller scale, played in my first 8k Sunday roller earlier and came 17th out of 54,, not bad... and in the mini event came 10th just missing out on the cashes.

A frustration for all when you spend a few hours and then miss out on or near the bubble - still we move on to the next one and try and put the previous behind and forget about it.

Cheers
