I have not seen Will Brewin in the VLV events so far. Seems a shame if he's not part of this year's SKYPOKER Team after his outstanding performances in previous years. Do you happen to know his plans or has he been snapped up by another Poker site ?
I mean weight, height, volume are all measurable quantities because they are quantitative but surely so should sharpness? Sharpness may seem qualitative (this knife feels sharper than that knife) but is there a standard way to measure sharpness?
Tikay... quick question.... I'f I'm going to go out with a girl for the first time, and I think I may have a remote shot of getting lucky on the first date... should I wear:
Hey there, Have a look at this thread here hopefully that should explain everything to you. If you need anything else - just shout. Posted by Sky_Rich
A little confused on how you can run 5K BOUNTY HUNTER at the same price as a 12k, i realise that as the players go up so does the money but a 5K bounty hunter should be at least half the entry fee of a larger one
Funny enough, last time I was in with a slight chance of getting to Vegas, I final tabled in the open that night - must be a good omen for me. Many congrats, Penguin - really chuffed to see you make it.
Hi Tikay. Is naming your cards (correctly or incorrectly) while betting still in progress a breach of poker rules! Or is it just a commenly used tactic? I think the first but others believe the latter!
hi there tikay . i have been chosen as 1 of the home players for sundays primo and just wanted a bit of advice realy. i have played in the primo twice before and finished 81st the first time out of 489 runners and 62nd the second time 2 off the cash bubble. i know how to play in this style of torny but with me being a home player does this mean i have go super tight as everyone's gunning for you?

Hi Firstly, no question is a dumb quetion.
It they are poker points, you can use them to enter freeroll tournaments, either for cash, or to sat into other tournaments.
re-posted Bountyhunter format, Why is it that you do not always win the bounty when you win the hand?
If you go all-in at the turn, with the winning hand, vs small stack all-in & any others, then the big stack shoves on the river to force any others off a side pot, big stack loses hand but takes the bounty as well as the side pot.
hi tikay been reading super systems 2 to try and improve my game a bit and my first game after reading it i cashed in the open after abit of a dry spell i also qualified for the primo freeroll and won the national freeroll would you recomend any other poker books to read that might improve my game as i have learned a lot of things from this book like positioning ect that i didnt think was important on a 6 seater table but now i know different. thanks paparon

I would recommend Harrington on hold em *Expert strategy for no-limit tournaments* part 1 and 2 both books show every aspect of how to play in tournaments and how to think about your hands at certain times. It will give you what you need to get through fields of 3000 players plus without getting into trouble and also gives you a really good way to finnishing off at the final table. This book has improved my game ten fold more so than supe system 1 and 2. Make no mistake the super system books are excellent but this book will give your game an extra dimension.
Why is it, you get short stacked in MTT Got 10/15 BB and u think rite just wait no rush and then wow!! KQ / K10 / A10 / JJ / QQ / Happy days so u shuv all of these hands ive had only to get call by 96 (plonker) AA /KK/AK/23/ GOT BEAT ON EVERY SINGLE ONE. Always the same on sky poker get a gud hand to shuv with but u always run into big hand, or f uckin sh it but u no its all over coz sky just want short stacks out to get MTTs over asap especially sats. really f uckin p issed off going back to PKR I Think at least u no they do call and raise u with sh it.
hi there tikay i first played skypoker in august 2007, got straight into the open only to go out pretty quick but i soon got to grips and finished 25th in the open in june 2008 and also won a tournament on a other site. however since then, due to me not earning a great deal of money, i have stoped playing which was a shame at the time as i was really developing, but also not losing much money i was breaking even
i now want to re enter the poker world after a year and half out, what would your advice be? same as what i did before?
thanks tikay your advice has always been useful on the channel with a bit of humour in there for good measure

How is sharpness rated?
I mean weight, height, volume are all measurable quantities because they are quantitative but surely so should sharpness? Sharpness may seem qualitative (this knife feels sharper than that knife) but is there a standard way to measure sharpness?
Ponder that!

hopefully that should explain everything to you.

Can I just ask, what's an optomerist? Is it a bit like an optometrist?
Well played on Sunday.
Many congrats, Penguin - really chuffed to see you make it.

I know that sounds like a dumb question but i realise, it's not money, just points! so am i restricted?
