Tikay is the Orville to your Keith Harris… (OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD)

edited September 2010 in Poker Chat

 

Yes, read on to discover how YOU could be putting words in the mouth of Sky Poker's oldest and wisest (?) analyst!

Hartigan and Kendall will be on your screens at 8pm with live coverage of tonight’s £8k Bounty Hunter.  We look forward to receiving your questions and play-my-hand requests - from tonight's tournament.

As well as analysing the action from the BH, we’ll be reviewing some cash hands and discussing recent British success on the tournament circuit.  So, an exciting evening in store – and an exciting few days ahead…

After tonight’s show, Mr Kendall and I will be making our way to Nottingham for the Sky Poker Tour Grand Final.  Then, on Monday, it’s the British Poker Awards.  I hope you’ve voted.  I have.  For Vicky Coren ;-)

Now, in the unlikely event Tikay wins Best Contribution to Poker, he’ll probably be expected to give an acceptance speech.  So, what random sentence can we shoehorn into his 60 seconds of glory?

How about some quasi-philosophical nonsense along the lines of Eric Cantona’s “seagulls” monologue?  Maybe a whimsical anecdote about steam trains?  Or the embarrassing declaration that he owes all his success in poker to Richard Orford?

Your suggestions for a ludicrous line to be included in Tikay’s acceptance speech are most welcome.  Please post away!

    '' The biscuits are on me!!! ''

    '' This is a fiasco of a decision! ''

    I could go on.......like Tikay's years.....I've got hundreds :)

    Hi donkeyplop,

    Ideally, we'd like you to request hands from tonight's tournament! But, since you asked...

    The missing 3p = the rake!

    In a case where there is an uneven split pot, the player(s) closest to (the left of) the button receive the extra chips.

    Yes, it's odd that everyone was in the hand.  Yes, it's odd that no-one bet.  Yes, it's odd that no-one hit.

    Hey James, Tk and tonights producer ;)

    Another hand request, I posted it in the clinic and have recieved some pretty fierce criticism for my fold in the hand, Its a cash hand, which ends on the flop - If u have a spare 5 mins cud u squeeze the hand in???

    Theres 4/5 pages of debate (me being slaughtered) about it in the clinic, where Im pretty much fighting against the tide trying to justify my fold, but it would be cool to find out where I stood in the hand.

    Below is the hand history, and a link to the clinic thread. Hope u can get it on, if not, nvm.

    Much appreciated, JJ

    how about getting tikay to talk about his fave two subjects in one???


    yes trains and ducks.....................

    http://www.o-keating.com/hsr/mallard.htm

    The Mallard was one of many Gresley Class A4 steam engines built by LNER in the 1930s for high speed passenger transport along the East Coast Mainline (London-Edingburgh) shown in blue on the map. It was a rival project to the LMS Silver Link which achieved 114mph (185km/h) earlyer in 1938 on the west coast mainline shown in red. Unlike other steam engines the design incorporated some aerodynamics, even if it was somewhat crude. This engine was used as an express locomotive right into the 60s in the UK until diesels on northern routes.

    Great suggestions so far.  Good work, everyone!

    I'll endeavour to get Tikay to read some of them aloud into the camera on tonight's show :-)

    Please can you play this hand to show why you SHOULD NOT slow play AA, Any raise preflop, and i would be out of this hand.

    Went for the overbet on the river instead of value betting it as a value bet would probs scream a flush, never put opo on pocket rockets though.

    JJ - I think your hand may be more suited to the Poker Clinic section of Sunday's live show.

    Gavin - we only really want play-my-hand requests from tonight's tournament (I've now clarified in my OP).

    Guys,

    Thank you for the Hand Requests & Hand ID's.

    What James really wants - he has such poor grammatical skills, though they match his diction - are (or should that be "is"?) Hands from TONIGHT's Bounty Hunter Tourney.

    Also, please don't send them in until you have played them.

    I sense a "difficult" night, James is in one of his more obdurate moods, & I feel particularly curmudgeonly today. But as Roshambo fans know, curmudgeonly beats obdurate all day long.
