Hi everyone,

Tonight, Richard Orford and Tikay are hosting The FiveOO on Channel 865 and simulcasting with Sky Sports Xtra from 10pm.

Playing in the studio is former athlete John Regis. He'll be playing in The FiveOO and various other tournaments including a Head's Up match against tonight's Play the Presenter
James Hartigan.

This is the official thread for tonight's show so make sure you get your emails and posts in.

Good luck in the tournament,

Andy

    DREADING tonight's show.

    What's the "over/under" on how many times Orful Orford mentions he Finalled in Monday's £20 Deepie, & finished one spot ahead of me?

    20-22 is my guess..... 

    Seriously, The Feltham Team, especially Rich, & I were overwhelmed by the nice comments after Monday's Show, both on the Forum, &, amazingly, on a well known "social networking site".

    I think we had more e-Mails than I can ever remember - & THAT makes the Show.

    Now, tonight is the 5-00 Simulcast, which goes on Sky Sports Extra from 10pm onwards, so we gotta behave a bit better than we did Monday (The Suits gave us some serious grief on Tuesday!), but we hope it'll still be worth watching. It will be if you keep the e-Mails coming in. The addy is "skyopen@bskyb.com". I think.

    I won't be playing in it but will tune in for the comedy! Have a good 'un - don't forget to give out a big shout to Area 51 every time there's a horrid suckout ;-)

    I played on the Site the other night, & one guy asked me 37 times for a shout-out tonight, which I promised I'd do if I did not forget. And I have not forgotten. Except I've forgotten his name.

    Well suits, it is what Richard and tikay are good at, they use the material fed to them from the forum thread and the email to make an absolutely fantastc show, I therefore wonder why the emails and threads increase dramaticaly when the A TEAM are on and probably more viewers too ?

    Its cos we ENJOY THE SHOW WHEN THEY ARE ON. hehehe, think i have made my point ????? LOOOOLLLLL

    Hi Guys,
    Ok Tony heres a question.
    Can you explain floating the flop and what is to be achieved by doing it, An example on screen would help those players see what you mean.
    Many thanks
    love your work

    Rich may have outlasted you on the final table but I outlasted both of you and won! :)  Can you also give a shout out for my first ever blog. It's available now via the link on Sky Poker Announcements. Cheers guys!

    3 Question for Rich

    How much do you think your game has come on in the last 6 months?

    Has the bankroll challenge helped you improve your game?

    Now that you are regually beating Tikay in the deepie tournies and Michelle in the heads up is there any chance you might be spotted and sponsored to become a pro like Kara Scott?

    Thanks Gary.

    Regularly? Eh?

    Dictionary definition: - regularly = Occurring with normal or healthy frequency.

    Blog Shout-Out - consider it done. But I'd better read it first.

    You mean on the Show? Okey-dokey, will try. I'm doing tonight, tomorrow, & Monday, & I'll squeeze it in somewhere - probably tomorrow, when we will have a special Guest in the Studio.

    Right- finally finished all my show prep.

    I notice that in the same time period Tikay has sat in the office chowing down on his dinner and posting on the forum. Tough job, he's got hasn't he?

    I'd shout at him to get some work done, but it's quicker and more likely to get through to him if I post on here.

    Looking forward to tonight's show- John Regis is the guest. If anyone has any questions you'd like to ask a top class Olympic athlete in his day, then please use this forum to fire away and I'll pass them on to John on the show.

    He's a good laugh, so the questions can be serious...or not.

    And off the back of the French Photographer Affair the other night, I'm looking for any other sightings of Tikay in clandestine meetings with young (or old) ladies. Plus all the usual comments, questions and banter, which makes the show such fun to do.

    Finally, I promise to mention the fact that I beat Tikay on the deepstack final table the other night no more than about 12 times in the first hour of the show. So don't worry, it won't be tedious or anything.

    And PLEASE NOTE.

    Orford has had a double-0up.

    1) He's had a haircut - it's truly dreadful.

    2) He's had his Grecian 2000 top-up. Lol. Just lol.

    No e-Mails about that, please. ;)
