In Response to Re: Thurs Night Live Show with Fowler and Tikay 7pm CH861 ***official show thread****20K Bounty Hunter time... : Wow - fantastic effort, fish Posted by Slipwater
Ty bud,
Kinda similar to F_Ivanovic' story in a way but I sat down at a $50 with my whole $50. I doubled through and sat at a $100 table, same story and up to $200 table in one night. Next night doubled through and at $400 table. There I stayed for the month occassionally dabbling with the odd $1000 table playing the likes of Beyne (Vladimir Geshkenbein) and co. I must've run like God at the time to do this!:) I'd never read anything about BRM at that time and still frequently ignore it:) (only really play for fun in small bursts when work allows) - but Hey! I did get a look on top of the pots here last year in the summer! £1305 pot:) and I do remember Tikay commenting on it and calling my every move - so I must've played it as optimally as poss!
However, you may see me probs at £20NL later if i'm not too knackered from work:)
good luck with the show tonight Anna, i think you will need it being sat next to my old friend teacake, give his chin a wipe now and then, he will sit ok, make sure his carers are close by , for his needs.

That's amazing, James - talk about a good run, eh? Hopefully see you on the tables sometime (but at slightly lower limits...)
Hi Tikay and Anna. My main education came from a book that cost me about £3-50 called Texas Holdem Poker Win Online by Paul Mendelson. Nothing too advanced but gave me a good grounding in ABC poker. Also when I switched to Sky TV and discovered 865 I lapped it up and was watching about 3 to 4 hours a day, learnt a whole lot more and eventually signed up to the site. I spent a few days trying various formats without any great success then found the deepstacks and won 2 in the space of a week. Been here 2 1/2 years now all from an initial deposit of £25.
Well i came across 861 by chance 3 years ago and used your video lessons as a grounding but then came across the book 'Harrington on hold 'em' in a charity shop. Ten days after getting it i'd made the Survivor final from the monday and decided to visit my local casino in Liverpool for a live game. Would you believe it when i say i won!!! When i was asked how long i'd been playing i said "oh about ten"....it was mistaken for years thankfully, not days! Winning was probably more luck than judgement but the die was cast. I invested in more books being a ex maths teacher and studied as well as using the poker clinic and spotting the very good posters and i could see my game improving more and more.
Funnily enough i'm not a gambler but i do enjoy the game as there is, to my mind, a skill to it as well as great banter with team mates from The Hitsquad.
hi all been playing on the site for a few weeks and now taking full advantage of the extra value would be great to see what tk thinks of my play tonight poss with the card blockers good luck to all whos playing lets get a jackpot winner tonight massive payday
I think the main will max at 1000 runners. Well, you've got to be a bit optimistic!
I learnt the ropes by playing penny anti 5 card draw at college back in the early 90's. A game so totally different to NLH it's like comparing concrete to the final episode of breaking bad. Totally impossible!
Did Teacakes realise that his tie is the same colour as his hair when he put it on?
I reckon it's gonna get 1041 runners for a PP of just over 31k, you heard it here first!
Who taught me poker? Well for years, literally everything I knew about the game (very little) I picked up from watching Late Night Poker on channel 4. Once I joined Sky, a few people in the clinic helped but I became a much better player after getting an absolute ton of help from Dohhhhhhh.
I'm in tonight, had to BI direct after failing in 4 super sats... one of which involved losing a flip as the slight favourite (with the PP) on the stone bubble. Pretty sigh but I was last and no1 else was short enough for me to be able to hang on so had to flip. Hope I flip better in the ME Will send in some HHs if anything interesting happens.
The lovely and quirky Anna doing her bit for care in the community by looking after Teacakes. I quote 'that's enough for a holiday in one pot!' 'where's One Pot replies TK' Who writes this stuff? Brilliant.
I know it's going to be a good evening irrespective of the tourney outcomes!
Have a good evening all.
p.s. Self taught originally but then picked up a lot from 861 - informative and entertaining.
Good evening M/S Fowler(Professional name),I know you got married,and Mr Kendall!
You will have at least +1 more than you normally average,as I am buying straight in tonight(usually satellite in). I won the Mini Rebuy Mtt yesterday!
Good luck with this evening's show,always enjoy listening to both of you!
My first experience and learning the game of Poker was when I joined the South Wales Poker league, was told to buy Super System 1 and Super System 2 by Doyle Brunson.
Then a year later joined Sky poker and I believe the First month I played I won a Monday evening Bounty Hunter and picked up £1600, became hooked and been playing on Sky ever since! Need I say more. Sky has a wonderful community and it is fun!
Here's a hand to get you started, just to show I'm here to win tonight
But seriously I just think there is literally not a single value hand you would ever do a tiny raise with on a 666 flop. Probably didn't need to turn my hand into a bluff on the river tho.
greetings sir tea of cakes and lady anna. anna you look like the lady medieval knights would duel over...tikay well more like a motheaten old jester sitting in the background lambasting all and sundry!!!!!!!
I learned poker by watching late night poker then came across skypoker tv and learned more. still useless though!!!
