In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : Hi Big, Enjoyed that Omaha session with you last night! "M" is just as effective as " BB's", it's the same thing really, but expressed mathemtically. The reason I bang on about shoving during the Shows, is that I see so many guys who are down to a handful of BB's, & they miss their "spots" to shove. It's a key skill to have, pushing at the right time, & in the optimal spot, but so many struggle with it. Posted by Tikay10
cheers just dont here it mentioned that was all. Just learning omaha hope to get to grips with it soon as its a change from the norm keeps the brain active
In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : Hi Torres, You were a terrific guest on Sunday's Show, thank you. An SPT in the ROI? I'm sure they will try, but it's quite awkward really, as they don't have established Venues. The Merrion is now closed down, & it's quite tough to hold a third-party Event at The Fitz, as they need to keep their regulars happy. The Sporting Emporium is lovely, but a little small. That apart, it means using a Hotel, & so we'd have to organise Dealers & Tables and such-like, which gets a bit heavy. I've had my fingers burned twice in Ireland when organising third-party Events, so personally, I'm wary. But I love playing poker in Ireland, & have been playing in & around Dublin for over 10 years now. Julian Threw's family still live there, so they look after me a treat when I'm over, & I get on OK with Andy Black, Donnache, Liam Flood, Alan Smurfit, Roy Brindley, Noel, & I've done charity work out there with Padraig. So here's the thing. If the SPT cannot get to Ireland next year, I'll come across, & we'll have a weekend of poker somewhere, & try & invite a few lads along. Should be fun, eh? Posted by Tikay10
Thanks very much for your very informative reply mate. Understand completely the difficulties regarding venues but it is such a shame as i know the SKY POKER regulars would love what Ireland has to offer this excellent online site.Hopefully i personally can experience the SPT live event in the U.K some day. It would be great to see you in Dublin's fair city one day and maybe even tangle on the same table. Finally can i just say mate that you do a tremendous job for SKY both on the live shows but paticularly here on the forum and it doesn't go unnoticed. Keep it up pal. Thanks again and take care. Gavin
Tiiiiiiiiiiiikay! Quick question have you seen Blackfish3's profile pic? I think Richard Kellett has switched from blonde and got onto the Sky Poker forum ;-)
hi Tikay just wanted to know can you buy into the spt direct at the casino or do you have to win your seat on here? thanks GORTONEUS Posted by GORTONEUS
hi i'm not going to be able to make spt luton despite qualifying due to work commitments, just wondered if there is anyway of allowing a fellow sky poker player to take up my seat?? Or any chance of cashing in my seat??
Hiya Tikay just about your comment about the Spike in Dublin...its actually called the Spire but it is a useless spike that cost a fortune lol Regards Dympna Posted by Recall
Hi Recall, & welcome to the Sky Poker Forum.
Yoes - you are absolutely right! But it's always been "the Spike" to me, because that's what it looks like. I believe they originally planned to call it "The Daft Sticky Uppy Thingie". Or "What A Waste Of Money".
Hope to see you guys in Dublin soon, I'm seriously thinking about popping across therre for a poker weekend with you guys.

Hi Swanny,
SPT Seats are not transferable, though I'll speak to Mr Milner & see if he can do anything.
However.....trhe SPT visits Swansea in July - I'm assuming you live in South Wales? - I think it might - MIGHT - be possible to transfer it to that Leg.
Anyway, I'll ask Mr M & see what he says.
I'm Offline until mid to late afternoon, but I'll let you know what he says when I am back online.
Take care now, & a great shame we won't see you tomorrow.
