UKOPS NIGHT 3 LIVE TONIGHT 7PM ON SKY POKER TV- with Rich and Stu ****the show thread***

On the third day of UKOPS my true love gave to me...


The Rebuy Event on Sky Poker TV LIVE!


Monday 29th December 2014

Channel 861 or streamed from skypoker.com

 

With Richard Orford

(shocking Christmas outfit not included. Thank god.)



'
and Stuart 'I can't Believe It's Not' Rutter!


 

And to think this was the coolest photo I could find of him.

 


We are live from 7pm- and the main event is a £55 buy-in with re-entry options and add-on options. But of course, you can satellite in for much cheaper (see the lobby) or play one of the many other UKOPS events we'll be covering on the show.


So, grab those cold turkey sandwiches and the rubbish toffee sweets left at the bottom of the Quality Street tin and get festive on that rubbish day 3 days after Boxing Day but still two days from New Year's Eve where no-one quite knows what to do.


And of course we've got the usual tournament prizes to give away for any hand requests we show and any messages we read out, including your input on this

 

REGIFT YOUR DODGY CHRISTMAS PRESENTS TO IMPROVE YOUR POKER




 

Take your worst Christmas present this year and tell us who'd you give it to in return for something better!

 

e.g. I’d take the Admiral Ackbar Star Wars figure my brother bought me (yes that really happened) and give it to Chris Moorman in return for a copy of his new poker book, or to Neil Channing in return for an hour’s tuition from him.


Looking forward to hearing about your Christmas gift nightmares and how you intend to turn that into something better :-)


See you at 7!

    I didn't get any presents. Unless you count this chest virus inherited from the sick one on Christmas day.

    Would give it to MattBates in exchange for Poker tips.

    Perhaps the most anachronistic sentence I have ever seen ;)

    My guess for what Brian got for Christmas is a dictionary

    Hope you can all play the main tonight. Should be fun.

    We've got Karl Mahrenholz in it and he'll be Skyping the show throughout the night. And we're also hoping to get the Amb, Neil Channing in it as well.

    Thanks for the spot prize, from last night's show, of free entry to tonight's £3,000 UKOPS Mini.

    I expect to double-up within the first few hands.

    Not because my poker has got any better, but because I've just eaten some 3-day-old paella.

    Good evening Mr Orford(still the £2.20 @2.20 deepstack champion) and Mr Rutter.
    Sir Tikay went for your £2.20 @2.20 crown today,and came a very credible 3rd.
    But he had 1000s of railers wishing him well, even players on the final table were wishing him well.
    Looks like it will be your crown for a little longer.
    All the best.

    P.S. You dont know Mr Moormans e-mail address do you lol.

    Hi,

    I won a spot prize last night of an entry into tonight's UKOPS mini, but I have no idea how to claim the prize. Any ideas?

    Cheers.

    You should be automatically registered into the tournament. Have a look in the lobby.

    Evening Mr. O

    I've only seen one thing more shocking than your Xmas suit........and that's Stuarts Tea Cosy as pictured above :) (I can't believe it's not Rutter.....surely not?)

    I had a solar powered tourch for Xmas although I haven't used it yet cause we haven't had any sun, so I would re-gift it for your outrageous xmas suit. (I think thats a good deal)

    Also...
    if Stu gives us any hand analysis tonight, can we rename this part of the show.........

    "Rutter-Tut-Tut Rutter Struts His Stuff"

    Have a great show guys

    Hi Rich
    I genuinely DO have a solar powered torch.

    It has an internal battery, so I presume the idea is, it charges it during the day so you can use it at night (Not exactly ideal if your store it in a draw or your electricity cupboard lol) But don't fret the manufacturers have thought of every eventuality....it also has a wind up handle on the side to charge the battery.

    Not sure anyone will ever use the Solar Powered facility if i'm honest :)

    Hi guys.....re: your comment about how people are treating tonights main event. If somebody says they are treating this as a freezeout because a rebuy/addon is too much for them then surely they are highlighting themselves as a sitting duck to anyone who is watching the show or reading this thread??? If people know they aren't rebuying then won't it encourage them to heap the pressure on?

    fwiw I have satellited in and can afford hundreds of rebuys!!! (may not be true!)

    Have a great show

    Hi guys,

    Don't mean to winge but I still don't have my entry into the UKPOS mini tonight that I should have as per the spot prize I was awarded last night. It's getting quite close to the event now.  It's not something I'd make up!  Was awarded by Mr Jarvis, somewhere around 9:30pm I think.

    Cheers.

     Quick run down on the JJ vs KT hand

     With 15 cards already out th odds are

     2 in 37 times 1 in 36  which gives it as 0.15%

     This gives odds of 665 to 1
