The Sunday Roller: Live on 865 with Rich and Tikay ***official show thread***

Good afternoon Sky Pokees!

Hope you enjoyed the show last night with Ian Fraser. The man tells it like it is and has a very funny way of describing hands too! "He's got the baked beans (queens) and he's going to put his chips in the hey diddle diddle (the middle) but your other player has got the conkers (kings).

I'm thinking of getting subtitles arranged for future shows. Top bloke though and top show.

Right, onwards and upwards- tonight I'm back on screen at 9pm for another live poker marathon and this time with the love of my life Tikay. I haven't seen the old one for a couple of weeks now, so not only will he be two weeks older, but he'll be two weeks grumpier too.

The show tonight primarily covers the brand new Sunday Roller- our high-end buy-in where all the big names lock horns. Don't forget though that you can satellite into this £220 buy-in for just £24 (or as Ian Fraser would put it '24 squid or smackeroonies'). That's at 4 this afternoon and there are micro-satellites feeding into that too throughout the day- see the 'Poker Promotions' under 'My Sky Poker' tab at the top of this page for all the timings and details.

We're on at 9, but the Sunday Roller begins at 7! So make sure you're registered in time if you want to be featured on the show tonight.

In the guest seat tonight is the man who famously allowed me to win the SPT Leeds side event by losing to me heads-up, a feat which Tikay has still not forgiven him for- it's TSP member and all round good egg- Alan Gratton aka Gixxerk4.

We need your input of course, so as well as hand requests and poker questions to Tikay and Alan, I'm looking for plenty of comedy banter and amusing anecdotes to fill our four hours with your stuff. This is YOUR show guys, do with it as you will!

The topic tonight to get us started is...

Phobias/things that scare you

Have you got a weird phobia? Or at the very least is there something bizarre that frightens you (clowns, babies, old ladies, pylons etc) Or if you don't have one, do you know of someone else who goes to pieces at the sight of something? The more out there it is the better!

Off the top of my head- I'm slightly scared of the sea at night. And I also know of someone who is petrified of ketchup. I'll repeat that...petrified of ketchup.

Over to you guys- free TSP seats to the best contributors tonight.

Let's get posting and I'll see you at 9!

    haha.

    My two phobias are pretty standard ones, spiders and heights. I even get vertigo just by looking up at tall buildings.

    OK, you want mega-weird...as a kid I used to be scared of certain words ('ghost' was one, but I wasn't scared of ghosts, just of the word itself!).

    But the seriously strange one was strings of vowels -

    AAAAAAAAAAAA
    EEEEEEEEEEEEE
    OOOOOOOOOOO

    ...that kind of thing. Not anyone saying them, or the sounds, just the look of strings of vowels.

    I genuinely have NO IDEA.

    My phobias are nothing out of the ordinary. spiders and thunderstorms. I used to love thunderstorms so much as a kid, I read all about them a few years ago and on finding out that there are very few places to hide when they hit overhead, I now hate them. I have a mate whose phobia is feathers.i've never asked her why cos i'm not sure i'd like to hear the answer! :)  Have a good show guys x  p.s Ian Frazer was great on the show last night

    Loving this, Jenny. And thanks to all the contributors so far. You can't win a TSP seat though Jenny, I'm afraid.....because you've already won one! Don't know if you caught the end of the show last night but I gave you the prize as a get well soon gift.

    Please let us know when you'd like to play the tourney and we'll get it sorted for you.

    Awww, thank you so much!! I had to go to bed at about 10:45 last night as the room was spinning so no, I didn't see anything after that. (I'll get really excited when it doesn't hurt quite as much to be excited LOL.)

    I'm definitely not fit to play anything 'properly' at the moment (I keep hitting the wrong button for a start) so I'll get back to you on when I might be able to take part - let me know if there's a time limit or anything.

    My phobia is moths, just hate them, I am ok with Butterflies, just no moths please

    Yorkie dislikes bats, the bat house at Chester zoo is not her favourite pastime.

    Wish me luck as I am trying to learn 2-7 lowball, watch out Juanda

    Same!!!!! In summer the house goes on shut down...no windows or doors are allowed to be left open...at all!!!! In the event that an unlucky thing (I actually can't type the word without getting a flippy tummy..) gets into the house, I hide, while my better half has to try to get it in a glass so it can be returned to the outside world..I won't lie, we do inadvertently kill one or two but mostly they get out alive!!

    Origins of phobia?? Proibably something to do with being told they eat through clothes as a child....Irrational fear? Definatly!!!! But I wouldn't suggest you put me in the same room as one..if you value your ear drums that is!!!
