Saturday Night Live with Rich and Ed ***the official show thread***

Hi all,

We're live tonight on Channel 865 from 9pm till 1am for more Mastercash madness!

In the cockpit are myself and the Mayor of Value Town, Ed Giddins.

Get your messages in- hand requests, banter- all the usual :-)

Topics tonight-

Bankroll management

How much do you have in yours right now? What percentage of it do you risk at any one time? Do you multi-table? How and when do you withdraw money? Do you set aside a certain amount of money each week to play poker? Do you have any tips to give to others to help them not go broke on the baize?

And secondly, (and not quite as seriously)...

Comedy things you've heard kids say!

If you don't have kids, then of course, it can be nieces, nephews, friends' kids etc.

You know the sort of thing.

When I was little, my gran said to my brother on his fifth birthday "Ooo, you're getting older now. You'll soon be 17 and able to drive. And then you'll be able to drive your gran to the shops."

To which my brother replied " No Gran, you'll be dead by then"

Lol!

Have you ever heard them say something embarrassing or explain how something works (television, Christmas, why the sky is blue etc etc) in an innocent and highly amusing way?

Let's be having those comedy kids comments!

Prizes for the best ones!

Looking forward to your answers!

    Bankroll management is so so important. When I first started, I lost my meagre bankroll a couple of times before I took notice and stopped putting it all on the table at once!  I have built up my Sky bankroll from £150 to a point now where I can play any stake comfortably without it hurting at all.  I find the best thing that helped me was to not play when bored, tilted or angry. It stops you making good judgments and is the quickest way to make a big dent in your bankroll!

    I withdraw whenever I feel its necessary (as I have a family).  As a few examples, poker paid for Christmas last year, our holiday at Easter time and has ensured that the children have been able to go places during this summer holidays (only 1 week to go) :(

    The funniest thing my 5 year old Max said recently was when I was taking him to a birthday party. As we were leaving, my wife said to him: "Have a nice time at the party."

    He replied: "Yeah, and you have a nice time cleaning the house!"

    It's quite hard to manage a £1.43 bankroll. (Fact.)

    Hi Orf donk  & Ed statsmeister here is my take on .........................
     
    Bankroll management / brm

     

    Good brm this is the most important of all things to master in poker ,

    without this you have very little control of your poker destiny .

     

    Master this & hopefully you will never have to redeposit cash

    in to your poker account again.

    HOW ?

    Forget about putting £10 here & £5 there in your account,

    or after the Friday night bottle of wine or a few cans throwing £20

    on a cash table , all above a defo no no .

     

    Wait until you have £100 to deposit,

    view this as a long term investment in your

    very own poker skills .

     

    Now from your £100 bankroll,

    dont bring in more than 2% - 3 % to play mtt games .

    ( unless its a monthly treat see below)

    4% on dym games .

    Don't spread more then 10% of your bankroll across 6 cash tables at once .

    8% across 4 cash tables ,

     

    4% across 2 tables &

    2% on just one cash table .

     

    Follow these rules & you are giving your self ever chance

    to ride out the bad runs / variance ,

    which will defo happen to you in poker .

     

    Treats

    Only if you find your br is growing ,

    should you do the following .

    If you had a good month & say your br is now above £150,

    reward & treat yourself to a monthly once off bigger buy in for a £11 .

    You may get lucky & boost your br big time .

     

    Denis .

    p,s  can you give my new heads up comp in gpc a shout out guys .

      bank management  is simple when you join sky there is a box that ask,s you how much you what to deposit as long as you stick to that you will only lose what you can afford                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 I once saw this wee lad sitting crying at the kirb and ask him what was wrong he told me he fell out with his mum and was running away   on my way back a wee while later i saw my little friend still sitting there so i said to him though you where running away  he said iam but iam not allowed to crosss the road

    Richard, tonight the Horror channel is showing a film called "Bloodbath at the House of Death".

    To be honest I'm wondering how you're going to compete with that.

    Hi Richard and Carlo have a good show guys,bankroll  management is one of the fundamental things in poker that you must get right or you will simply not enjoy playing the game.I heard Redmond Lee saying that he knows players who he would consider to be world class standard but their bankroll management is so poor that they are constantly trying to borrow money to enter tournaments.

    This is something you either get right or dont but make life easier for yourself by having the correct bankroll management strategy and always remember poker is an never ending game.


    I will send in my comedy story separately

    Breaking news!

    In a change to the scheduled programme, the part of Carlo Citrone will be played by his young and keen understudy- a lad called Ed Giddins!

    If anyone wants a refund, please go to the box office! ;-)


    Ed and Rich on at 9!

    The funniest thing i've heard a kid say was during one of my nephews christening service in church.

    As usual there were quite a few different families there all having their children christened.

    Well during the service one young boy asked his dad quite loudly...."why has that man (the vicar) got a dress on ? (he had one of those white gown things on) and why has he got such a big nose ?

    You've got to love kids when they come out with things like that.

    I'm breaking every rule in the bankroll management book by challenging myself to turn a fiver into £100 by Christmas without going broke.

    A bit of risk and excitement is fine, as long as it doesn't involve remotgaging, debt collectors, and meltdowns.

    Oh - and I asked my daughter where eggs come from and she said "Tesco". She wasn't wrong.

    Hi Richard i listen to a local radio station on a Sunday morning and they have a section in the show where kids phone in with jokes this is a live show and to be honest the jokes are usually dire but the host of the show always laughs and tells the kid that it was a funny joke.


    One morning a young Glasgow boy 7 years old, phones in and says there were three couples having breakfast in a hotel the American guy says to his wife pass me the sugar sugar and she gives him the sugar, the English guy says to his wife pass me the honey honey she gives him the honey, and the Scottish guys says to his wife give me the milk you cow.

    It was so funny to hear the dj apologising  to all the listeners
