Your next live show is tonight and, with Ross moving on to pastures new, it looks like I'll be rekindling a budding alternative bromance... Sky Poker TV LIVE! Sunday 1st February 2015 7pm-midnight
Channel 861 or streamed from skypoker.com
 With Richard ‘...and this is a building’ Orford

                             
...and Joe 'I don't know what the subtitles read, but I'll be in big trouble if they're what I'm actually saying' Stapleton



And we're live on the stroke of 7pm for what promises to be another five-hour pokertainment blockbuster. 
They'll be laughs, they'll be poker, they'll be your messages, they'll be THE £25,000 MEGA ROLLER, they'll be THE UKPC FINAL, and they'll be much else besides!
Please send in as much as you like to the show to be read out to the rest of the community and viewing audience.
Everyone who has a message read out, or a hand request shown, goes in the hat from which we'll draw three winners at around 11.30pm of Turbo Tuesday main event seats.
Joe and I will think of subjects throughout the night for you to fire in your thoughts on, but to get the ball rolling before the show, how about..? 

POKER CLICHES


 

What do people do or say in poker which have been done to death and have therefore lost all meaning.


For example- when two opponents turn their cards over on the river and and it turns out they had the same hand all along- at least one of then, often both of them, will exclaim in the chatbox 'Nice hand!'


I know this, because I did it myself only the other day. 

 

What other ones have you come across, or are guilty of committing yourself?


See you at 7!

    It's gotta be the classic one when playing live! We have an all in situation and there is a NIT who hasn't played a hand for the last hour and is all in (normally has Aces or Kings and has the opponent crushed!) who will decide now is a great time to stand up and collect his belongings and put his jacket on even before the dealer has dealt the flop ... Stating that it's not "his night" and won't win this all in ... Of course they win the hand and the whole table sighs as the NIT is still in and undoubtedly goes onto to make the final table!

    Hi guys

    Great show as per (or at least I assume it will be when it starts)  I love it when the villain (or it could be me) hits their one outer on the river and says "sorry", Yeah like they're really really sorry (not).

    Has to be the universal slagging off of your poker skills, Rich. If that hasn't been done to death I don't know what has.

    Pretty Sure Tikay always quotes "Limps are for Wimps"

    Yet recently when profiled on the show in a main event did he raise? did he fold? couldn't believe It

    He did a HORACE (wimp limp)

    Thank Goodnes Stapes always does what he says!!! (Takes the michael out of Hartigan! of course)

    I've never seen his poker, I dont think he's lasted past late reg lol

    Another annoying one:

    You find yourself sitting next to the "chatty one" and can't seem to keep quiet for more than 5 mins! There's been a raise and a re-raise and your chatty mate sigh folds after a few seconds! The flop smacks him straight in the face and you get a nudge from your new friend indicating that he's all over it and mouths to you what he has! Once the hand is complete he gives it the big " I would have won that " with my 89 suited !! Bore off mate, literally no-one cares !!

    Ok one of the things I do occasionally, is when I have folded and the flop comes something like A K J 10 7 with no flush draw. I say with a sigh "I folded the four of clubs". You would be suprised how often people are confused.

    Evening Voiceover twins,

       It's good to see Joe getting a lot of practice on the sofa, but that's enough of the gossip from the Atlantis Resort in The Bahamas.  Here's a couple of questions for Joe:


              
                   1) Do you think that now your preparing to take over from your older-ego, the
                   Dynamo from Derby at Sky, is making you a tad more terse when critiquing hands?

               2) If you could Muppetise poker, what character name would you give Dave Ulliott?

    Poker terms that are heard in our house on a regular basis are:

                      "How could you call with that load of......................"

                       "Really?"

                       "You lucky Ba.................."


     One for Richard: Why don't we see you at the UKPC's?


    Happy Variance


    Dave

    So are Rich and Stapes to be considered the Laurel and Hardy of poker. If so which is which?

    Hi Rich & Joe,

    Great show as always (Posting before the show has started, so don't let me down)

    Before I get onto my poker cliche, I wanted to mention that I met Joe a few years back when he represented Team USA in the APAT World Amateur Team Championship in Nottingham.

    Before he headed home we went up to him and asked if it would be okay to get a photo.  He said 'No probs', at which point we handed him the camera and posed ready for the snap.  We thought it was quite funny, but he didn't seem too amused.

    He was great fun with all the recreational players at the event, even moreso considering that his fellow Americans had failed to mention the fact that the competion ran across two days, and he had to head back at the end of day 1.

    He might have actually scored more points for his team on Day 2, I can't quite remember ;)

    My poker cliche is the opinion of most non-poker players that all poker players are degenerate gamblers that don't tell the truth and can't be trusted.

    We're not all like that, are we ?
