Bet sizing, if I am going to raise, I like to do a nice meaty one (I am not known as the king of the overbet king for nothing:)) AA through TT, maybe even AK< AQ later in a tourny, at least 7X the BB
while i have sent pm though already, could you also please ask players to be polite in sky premiership, the comp is suppose to a bit off fun, i have posted on each team as well as bbbblues to respect oppo players.
1, Being as popular as you are on the tables and forum, do you find the banter in the rail helps lift your spirits when your short stacked and gives you more hope than not being railed?
2. With the SPT coming up do you find the change between live and online playing a struggle? and if so why?
3. If you reach an FT who are the players you would most like and dislike to see seated around you?
4. Are you still learning new things and ways of playing poker despite having played as much as you have?
5. Do you find that with so many good players in the DTD every week that you have to bring your best game to even get close to winning & is it more fun for you playing against them?
as for raisng - flop a monster, bet nearly all leaving some behind (3k raise, 550 left behind say) just to induce the other player that your hands weak (mid pair etc). maybe a re-shove or call - then the 550 all in seems so little to call post flop. :-)
Can I ask.......will there be subtitles tonight ? we all know those scousers talk a bit funny unlike us from Yorkshire that talk proper.
As for what gadget tikay should get next...........maybe a digital photo frame that scrolls through photos of Richard Orford, Richard Branson and Davina McCall.
3) A cattle pro d/tasar to keep Orford and Hartigan in line
4) A Butler to take care of all the above!
Have a great show Gents! And a big big thanks to Scouse Red for his role in making the forum such a great platform to Chill, Get things off your chest, share opinions, keep up to date and most of all have a laugh!
Have a good show guys! I am out tonight but hope to catch the repeat show. Q for James - Is NFL really a 'sport' ? Q for Tikay - Is Dohhh really coming to the SPT Final @ DTD next month? Q for Chris - Who, in your honest opinion, has been the best performing player over all the months yourself and Michael have been running the DTD forum comp? (James, if Chris gets a bit excited during the programme, just tell him to calm down...calm down. ) Posted by MAXALLY
Re Q3 - blatant ploy for maxy-aggrandising mention
HOW DO YOU ACTUALLY DO IT? I've not yet found the way to type in a funny number, I just get to click a line or push a button. Couldn't find a FAQ on the site, and the help desk couldn't tell me either!
for tikay
a bike
a smart electric/hybrid bike
with usb - for attaching his smartphone (android of course so he can play sky poker on it when out in the countryside)
not sure if his sky wages will cover it - but it's not released until next year so plenty of time to save.
maybe he can run a forum post - spinning up £32 BR on NL4, with daily / I mean hourly updates.
Good evening James Tikay and Chris,i just want to say thanks to Scouse and Dtwbandit for the Monday night tournament.if any of the new players on the site are wondering what it is all about all i will say is that for a very small investment you get a great night of poker and the banter is good as well.
I have just watched the start of the show and beforehand i was a bit worried that he would be nervous in the studio trying to talk poker with two guys who clearly know what they are talking about,but to be fair Tikay is doing fine.
To be serious for a moment Chris is doing fine and he looks a natural in the studio.
I think there's always a place for any move in a player's arsenal.
Occasionally I'll use a min-raise in a later position with a monster to try & pump the pop up slightly whilst not scaring off the blinds. Of course caution should be adviused if the flop brings danger, and bad beats can occur, but sometimes the extra chips can be preferable to just stealing the blinds.

Good Luck tonight Chris relax , enjoy it bud ,
well deserved .
Raise sizing
If at all possible every hand you decide to play x3 raise preflop .
In this way you are taking control of the bet action that follows .
What gadget should Tikay get next?
Obviously the electric stairlift with its very own pull cord which triggers the sound,
choooooooooo choooooooooo !!!!
Have a great show.

Could I suggest

2) A Potty in case he needs a wee wee
3) A cattle pro d/tasar to keep Orford and Hartigan in line
4) A Butler to take care of all the above!

Q. For Tikay - What we be your Speech when you Accept your Award?
