edited February 2012 in Poker Chat
We're live on 865 from 7pm tomorrow. Stuart Rutter is the expert in residence, but we also have TWO superb guest analysts:
Paul Jackson



 Karl Mahrenholz
  (not to scale)


Questions please to skyopen@bskyb.com, or tweet away using the hashtag #SkyPokerTV.

We'll be discussing mid to late tournament strategy in Sky Poker School at 9pm, so please share your thoughts on the subject (with particular focus on chip conservation, bubble play and shoving / re-shoving ranges).

And, bearing in mind Paul is still probably best known for THIS...what's the best hand of televised poker you've ever seen? I'm particularly interested in hands that have taught you a valuable lesson.


[**EDIT: It's highly unlikely we'll have time to cover the following topic, but I will try to find the opportunity to offer you a top betting tip!**]

Plus, with the BAFTAs now behind us and the big show just over a week away...what are your predictions for this year's Oscars? Any bets you're considering? (For info: the latest Sky Bet odds can be found HERE.)

    What are your thoughts on creating a WSOP Parent & Child tag tournament?
    I can think of three contenders for starters!

    Action Jackson & Son
    Hartigan Senior & Junior
    Tikay & Love Child Orford

    What a comp it would be! can you think of any more?

    Evening,Defending big blinds,Obviously i understand if your low stacked you feel inclined to protect any blind ,but in early stages i see many plyers crush out by playing very mediocre bb or sb hands to a raise pre flop,I myself can easily fold 82 ,93,etc to any raise pre, even if i have that old cliche (im priced in)!!

    So what is your advice on playing your bb,sb,

    Thank you,Jim

    Does seem odd to get 3 great poker players in to talk movies.

    Bit like switching on MOTD on Saturday, and finding Hansen, Lineker, Shearer and Lawrenson discussing flower arranging.

    lol! A slightly obtuse view, Tony...

    I don't think it's too ridiculous to ask a group of gamblers about gambling.

    Anyway, it was a throwaway question, after a bulk of poker-related topics. And, as I've now indicated in the OP, we probably won't even get to it, once everyone's submitted their questions for Paul and Karl and contributed to tonight's Sky Poker School discussion.

    The irony when players post complaining about not talking poker. Yet add nothing themselves to help get a poker dicsussion started.

    Question for Mr Jackson...

    ...Typing in "Poker's greatest Bluff" on You-Tube, brings up you'r famous hand v Phil Ivey, since hindsight is a wonderful thing, . . . what would you have done differently?

    Question for Karl & Mr Jackson...

    ...What was you'r Greatest poker achievement in 2011?, what are you'r goals for 2012?

    thanks

    Irony indeed, Hursty.

    The Show is INTERACTIVE, send in poker hands & stuff, & the Show will discuss them. Don't, & it wont......

    I was quite pleased with Tuesday's Show, we asked viewers  - I banged on about it something shocking! - to send in hands, they did, we showed them, & discussed them.

    I think the viewers are like us, it's a new format, & we are still all learning how to use it.

    Keep watching, we ain't done with changes yet, either, there's some well good stuff lined up. I know, Mother told me yesterday, from her sickbed. Get well soon, Mother.

    Good luck tonight James, I'm jealous, what a line up!

    James, that is sheer genius!

    For a film geek, you are some funny guy.

    I had to look up obtuse, James, and it probably was ! But I thought the point worth making. With quality guests like we have tonight, I would much rather see you use your talents in drawing on the knowledge of the likes of Paul Jackson. However if I see you are in a TV programme about movies, I would certainly watch that too.

    3 hands from last nights main event relevant to mid/late strategy.
    479314418
    479379232
    479353046

    One of them I really played terribly, and the other two I was probably over aggressive too. So I expect some flak.

    Nice Goodfellas misquote, tikay!

    Yes, tonight should be an exciting show. It should also be noted that Mr Mahrenholz is a talented Omaha player, so we may attempt a bit of PLO strategy chat in the Poker Clinic at 8pm. You know where to send your questions, people...

    I actually HAVE seen that - the "funny guy" thing was when they were in the restaurant, & the gangster chappie (Joe Pasquale) cut the kids tie off, right?

    Gonna be a GREAT Show tonight, you have two super Guests, give them both my kind regards please. Karl plays Omaha? Don't I know it, he schools me good & proper every time we play.

    Have a great Show, mate, it's tough at the moment, but you can deliver.

    True i havent been back on this thread and not really been on the laptop today been babysitting :P 

    How about an original one, whats you favourate hand and why? 

    Or even whats the best advice for middle stages of a tourney? 

    Heads up tips? 

    I appreciate there ae many different things we can go down but i thought it would be silly having great guests/analysts on the show then talking about movies IMO bit of a snooze .

    Have a good show
