    Rich, any chance you can pitch for one of the Timed Tournies to be on in the first hour some time soon. They were always very entertaining on the show and haven't been on for a while. Ta very much.

    Well done on your PPT Leeds victory Ross. Would've liked to have been there to put a spanner in the works but alas it wasn't possible.

    An editor winning a leg of their own magazine tour? Nothing suspect about that ;)

    Not playing tonight Matt- but definitely will be next Wednesday and hoping to squeeze in a session before then too. On a DYM mission at the moment!

    Lol! I had no idea about this.

    Thankyou Harry for about 3 hours of material tomorrow night.

    Ross, get your corruption denial stories straight- a grilling is coming!

    Must be something dodgy when ANYONE wins an event in Leeds.  Where was it you won your SPT side event again Richard? ;)

    I don't know Mark, I've forgotten. There've been so many victories over the years they kind of blur into one...

    So, no-one's ever played poker with a celebrity before then?

    Alright, I'll get the ball rolling- I once played poker with Radio 5's Colin Murray at an event organised by former poker journalist and general TV/journo type Grub Smith at his local pub. Seemed like a friendly bloke. He used to commentate on poker back in the day.

    Think there were about 60 runners. I won...obviously. ;-)

    I remember being on standby to run off at any moment in case my first child was born, that was a sweat as I hit the final table.

    Got heads up and my first hand was AA- the other guy who was a shorter stack than me, pushed all-in against me. Thank you very much poker gods! :-)

    Hellooooooo! 

    It's been a while since I was last on - I've been to Vegas in the meantime and WON LOADS OF MONEY, A WSOP BRACELET and....oh, no, no I didn't. I won a small amount, bricked all WSOP tournaments and came home slightly worse off and with a much bigger hangover than when I left. Oh well, it was still fun.

    But not as much fun as tonight's live show will be! Tune in from 7pm.

    I've played poker with quite a few 'famous' people by the way. Members of Boyzone, snooker players, comedians but the most famous - and most random - is probably Neve Campbell from the Scream movies. Delighted to say she was still hot too.

    Good evening Mr Orford(£2.20 @2.20 DEEPSTACK CHAMPION.
    Good evening Mr Jarvis.
    I once had the pleasure to play poker in a local snooker club with Stan Bowles ex QPR, BRENTFORD and ENGLAND international player, i started off dealing the cards and every time someone won a pot they would give me a few quid tip, after a few hours i asked to play as most of the table was drunk i managed to win over £250, which was a vast amount of money for me in them days(over 30 yrs ago).
     
    Also in the £2.20 @2.20 deepstack i have had the privelige of playing some top celebrities and world class poker players including yourself and Mr Jarvis.
    All the best

    Welcome back Dreamteam... I didn't realise there is a bad beat jackpot at live casinos, until I won £12.000 last night despite losing with a full house aces over queens to a higher full house aces over kings... What a night!
