    If you're showing hands tonight here is one from Mastercash 4. At the time there was only 2 of us at the table so I'm raising like 80% of buttons.

    Should I raise bigger on the flop, given I'm gonna be raising here A LOT with much weaker holdings. Is the turn bet a bit small? River value sizing?

    If looking at hands any chance could look at this from first hand of 12k BH from my point of view. I folded after action on flop, was this correct?

    Hi guys. Bit late in from work and just got in so maybe to late for this but if possible I do have a hand request that I had on Sunday and James said you guys would be revviewing hands tonight.

    Was on Master Cash 2: #628716247 (20:18 03/03/2013)

    Should I slow down with the appearance of the Ace. My plan was to bet the streets small to keep the pot down as I thought I could be bluffed off the hand if I checked at any point. This is an area I struggle a lot with.

    Great show. Thank you

    Danny

    Hi Guys,

    Top show as usual.  I remember watching the feed when the Calfont song came out.  That was genius but who was the guy who was from the Hill people and did he ever find out about that nickname :)

    Keep up the good work

    in regards to Joes question on my 68 hand, if i dont hit straight on river i think it depends on the river card, but honestly i think i call and stick to my read

    Welcome to the team Joe, great show so far looking forward to more.

    Which tournament do you think that you have done your best commentary on?

    Hi guys, great show, good to see Stapes become a regular.

    In the spirit of asking new people questions, it has to be what is your favourite concrete? If that is too easy, which is your favourite motorway gantry?

    Oh, and which is the best American football team? (Note there is only 1 right answer to this!)

    Joe is awesome, really enjoying him on show. 

    2 new questions for Joe. 

    He said i bust him in a bounty hunter, what buy in event and what day? - play alot of bountys normally so good chance. Would be nice to tell him i put his chips to good use. 

    Second question, If i was to plan a holiday to the states, suitable for the family (so not vegas) what areas would be best to go to see america for what america has to offer without being too touristy.

    Evening Guys

    GREAT SHOW !!

    Joes name obviously implies he has been collecting staples.

    I have a number of biros - given my alias.

    Perhaps Joe and I should setup up a stationary business together?  ;)

    Question for Joe - If you play at micro stakes ( which I do ) - should you make calls on the basis you can afford to lose the money ( hence play the hand ).  I don't often do it - but sometimes I just don't beleive the villian - hence just call and make notes.

    Regards

    Pen Fifteen

    hi guyes i just head that e-mail where he thinks weak hands are always going to win well how come my KK suvive a shove preflop which had 3 callers which held AKo 55  and j10s surely an A, flush, straight or set was meant to come by the river.

    Evenin' gents, I hope it's been a grand one.

    Question:

    Is the idea of Sklansky dollars a good way for new players to understand Expected Value... or not?

    Tried explaining this to someone this week. I got a less than enthusiastic response.

    Good show Mr Stapleton. It's almost as though you've worked with James before.

    Ha!

    All this "ooh, Joe is great, la la la" is all well and good, but can he field questions on concrete & motorway gantries? (rhetorical).

    Exactly, the case rests.

    PS - I thought Joe was excellent, EXACTLY as expected. It is a compliment to Channel 861 to have Joe on board.
