    Loving your captions so far. Most amusing.

    Don't forget to send us loads of hand ids once the big game gets going.

    2 and a half hours to go- then we're live for the rest of the night. Be good to have you there!

    Bonus content tonight-

    (1) Watch Julian Thew blow his massive chipstack on the final table of Sunday's Primo. Well, come on, he was due some bad luck wasn't he?

    (2) We're trailling our new table graphics again tonight at 10, in the Mastercash hour. All feedback, positive, negative but most of all constructive will be gratefully recieved and read out on air.

    That is all.

    For now.

    I suppose ONLY making the final table might be considered bad luck for Mr Thew.


    Oooooooo... the new graphics. Pretty. :)

    I have thought of another constructive criticism of the new graphics - It would be better if screen names were case sensitive, I think. Might save on a bit of confusion for one or two presenters who struggle with the names.

    Have a great show Richard. Don't be upset if Mr Stapleton compares you to James alot. He did move continents to be nearer to him, after all.

    Hi Rich.

    Reference the £10 Tournament Token -

    Can you just clarify for any new players, because I once had a £10,00 tournament token and entered a £5.50 tournament and the token was spent ie I was unable to use it to play multiple tournaments or sit & goes.

    56 minutes is to the end of level 8, Richard.

    7 minute blind levels, you see.

    Can I ask why Stapes is off to Macau and what's it like over there, from a poker perspective?

    Also, I know the sky cash game is upcoming and its great but do you guys know if there is going to be any high stakes stuff on tv or via the net soon.  I used to love watching poker after dark and high stakes poker but it seems to have dried up recently.

    Cheers guys.

    Evening Guys

    Sorry I missed first part of show.  To be fair - I should have missed it all - wedding anniversary today ( 19 years lol ) and due to go out for a meal, but Junior Fifteen is unwell, so postponed.

    As for captions, Rich is obviously doing his Nelson impression with "I see no Chips"

    I'm not sure what to make of Stapes, other than he looks like an even camper version of Marc Almond.  Perhaps he holds a torch for you Rich ;)

    Great to see you two on together.  I will be at SPT Brum Rich - another oppotunity for you to duck out from buying me that beer again.

    Great show as always 

    Regards

    Pen Fifteen

    Evening guys

    Just finished a night of playing Tikay's Omaha High-Low tournaments, so only now started watching the show

    Thoughts on the new graphics:

    Overall look and feel is fine, but there is just too much "going on". The "zooming in and out" on the player on whom the action sits gets confusing quite quickly, and the moving dark blue background just seems to serve no purpose other than to distract from the action. "At The Races" uses a similar background when they show two races "split-screen" and it is equally distracting there.

    The dealer button needs to be slightly bigger

    To echo Andrew1947, please please please please get rid of the background music. it adds nothing and all it does is to make it harder to hear the presenter and analyst talking about the cards.

    I'd also like to see the cards slightly bigger (possibly the expense of some of the screen space allocated to the avatars), but that may just be me.

    Positives include the way raise/bet sizes are shown, particularly in 3-bet and 4-bet etc. pots, and the ability to see players' stack sizes at all times during the hand is a must that has been a long time coming.
