HOSE ME DOWN!

Tonight, for you delectation and delight we have the gruesome twosome on your screens for another 5 hour blockbuster bout of pokertainment.

Heading up the show from 7pm will be myself, Richard Orford...





And my wingman will be Carlo "I know when I've been Tango'ed" Citrone




No extra guest tonight- just the two of us, and so we'll need your input more than ever before!

In the mix...

7pm-8pm – Live cash coverage and a look ahead to the night's big games.

8pm-9pm – Analyse My Play – we take a look at one of Carlo's cash sessions

9pm-10pm – Poker School – Playing Mid pocket pairs in Cash

10pm-11pm – Top of Sky Poker – Coverage from the Viva Las Vegas Semi

11pm-12pm – Sky Poker Highlights – 12.5k Primo


Questions for Carlo then please, and everything else to me- your thoughts, your poker stories, your input on the Sky Poker School theme "playing mid pocket pairs in cash", your general banter and of course your hand requests, taken at any time from a TV table- i.e. Mastercash or main event MTT tables. (Please also tell us which MTT or cash table it's from)

You can send all your messages in via email skyopen@bskyb.com, via Twitter #skypokertv or via this thread. 

The message contribution, which I judge to the best tonight, will win free entry to this Thursday's Sky Sports Bounty Hunter main event worth £33 and maybe a lot more if you cash!

So, it's the biggest night of the week on Sky Poker LIVE for 5 hours with Rich and Carlo.

Channel 865 from 7.

Be there!

    Carlo pwned me on the tables today.  We spoke about this hand
     490720620

    It's not a mid pp or on a master cash table but caused talk in the chat.

    Can it be shown? Opponent showed afterwards so know that it was incorrect at the time but is it the right fold generally?

    I watched Thursday's show on Sky+ the other day:

    "He's never going to get a girlfriend with a name like that." - What's that about, Richard? The cheek...

    Anyway, a question for Il Signor Citrone: When you first started playing poker professionally, did you have any problems getting friends and family to take it seriously?

    I don't claim to be a pro but some of my family don't understand that it's a game of skill. They react as though I have a gambling problem and, although I'm a break-even player at worst, they believe my "luck" (as they perceive it) will turn. How do you make people see that it's a game of skill, if they see no difference between poker and roulette? Is throwing my winnings in their faces the only way? Doesn't seem too dignified.

    Yes, I actually have friends and family... but no girlfriend. lol

    5 hours to showtime and West Brom have gone behind to Man U at half time. Not happy.

    HI CHAPS
    CANT SAY ITS A GOOD SHOW COS ITS NOT STARTED YET, BUT WE ALL KNOW IT WILL BE...

    QUESTION WHEN PLAYING MTT`S WHEN YOU GET WEEK PLAY WITH 4 OR 5 LIMPERS IS IT WRONG TO KEEP JAMMING ALL IN? ESPECIALLY IN LIVE PLAY WHEN PEOPLE LAUGH YOUR RISKING ALL YOUR STACK TO WIN 5 LIMPS BUT I THINK YOUR INCREASING YOUR STACK BY 5-10%... I KNOW YOU SHOULDN`T DO IT TOO OFTEN COS SOMEONE WILL SET A TRAP ...

    Just try explaining a standard hand you played to them and your thought process behind it then see their blank faces :0

    Unfortunately we've had a last minute dropout in out graphics department and so we're putting it on hold until the next show I do.

    In the meantime though, I'm still giving away the seat to the Sky Sports BH, but it's to the best email/forum/tweet contribution  of the night.

    £110 BH from Sunday Night
    Hi could this hand be analysed, player has been very active throughout and I think I wil be seen to be tight due to the lack of playable hands so far.  #487787328When he leads turn on such a draw hevay board should I fold if i intend to fold a blank river like i did? I ended up putting him on a set of 1010/JJ and betting to protect his hand on the turn to prevent me checking back and him losing value on the river, howveer due to how active he was this could of been a bare Q occasionally.Also is there any chance this could be a a missed draw such as 10Q Hearts or another heart draw Aj/A10. Should the fact I have the K of hearts kicker influence my decison?
    Thanks Ryan
