Hi Skypoker my first post and just wanted to see if i could of played my ROYAL FLUSH any better the details will be below......pleaqse could you contact me if it will be reviewed on the show as its my first ever royal flush.
Hand number 252969048 Alias - Machka Blinds 400000/800000 Game - NLHE
Could you please show this hand? Probably more suited to The Club...
This was the first hand of the tournament, I was deal Orford suited connectors and was way ahead of 27os. I considered a min-raise to build the pot but if the opponent came over the top of me I'd find it hard to call from behind. Checking wasn't an open, really, there was no check button, so crossing my fingers and feeling lucky (much like Lisa-Marie calling a 3-bet with AJ) I shoved pre-flop and the outcome was favourable.

I would like to know whether I should have read more into the snap-calls. What does it mean when someone calls so quickly?
Ok, so Id played with this guy a while, and to be honest, he was winding me up, he was playing small ball, and generally being a calling station.
I decided, when he min raised me on the flop, that I was deep enough to take this guy off his hand. As soon as he min raised, I had him on a week king, and decided to do everything in my power to make him fold it.
The river was abit of a sweat, but unless he had caught his miracle 2 pair, I thought he would go away as I put too much heat on him.
It was very satisfying, maybe abit spewy, and I cant wait to get called down now wby 5th pair
I would like opinions on why the other player would CALL the all-in bet from me after the TURN card as i dont think he was pot commited and it was very deep in tourny and the oppo still would have had a very playable stack if he had folded.
A bit of background. The guy who loses this hand is, I think personally, a very good player. Just two hands earlier, I had AA, he had AsKs and the flop came Ace/spade/spade. He was very unlucky but he lost his whole stack on that hand after playing solidly all night. He then bought in again for the max. Straight after the hand above, he asked what I had, and I told him. He was very polite but he then left the table after telling me he had 9Q.

Had a strong stack, been playing quite well, sat next to a monster chipleader who I didn't have much info on, had been involved in very few hands so I figured he was quite tight- when he made the minraise I was suspicious, and was definitely concerned about the overpair- but when a shortstack went allin too, I figured with jacks the decision was made for me- when he reraised my allin, I was almost certain he had kings or aces and true enough he had aces. The fact the shortstack turned over JK was even worse, so the hand outcome was even more painful to watch taking that into consideration!
can you play my last 3 hands that have put me out of last 3 tournies and tell me if you think the odds against them are realistic? Basically lost jj to 55 raised preflop low flop comes all in called and 5 on turn. Next tourney 99 lost to 33. Next tourney aa lost to kq. Starting to have my doubts about the authenticy of the RANDOM dealing system.
Was in a head to head clash at the end of the torney with similar stacks at the time and was raised to 1800 and I call with A(h) 6(s). The flop was 5(s) J(d) A(c), he bets 3200 which I call (I was considering reraising but thought I may make a move on the turn) Turn card is J(h) to which he gos ALL IN! I fold after some thought. I folded because I think (know! haha) I can outplay him in the rest of the head to head. Do you think this is the right move or a bit tight? I ended up winning the torney for the 2nd night running so happy days in the end! Must say it is my favourite torney as i've won it loads of times now! Keep up the good work ALL at sky and Tikay is a legend!!

My alias is sirburnie and 1st hand id is 261144163,and want to why opponents called me when an obvious straight n possible flush could win.
2nd hand id is final hand of sit n go 261147666 n want 2 know what the chances are of us both having the same hand but one of us actually won
as my hole cards were dealt face down with no betting options.
