I've thought long and hard about this rich, and decided to give a serious answer.
strengths WHISKY
weakness WHISKY
killer weapon WHISKY
Achilles heal WHISKY
How far have i come in the last year. not to bad really i think im one of the top min cashers on sky in mtts. troubles is im so drunk by the time i reach the final table i forget why im there and donk out. i think ive sorted it tho i wont start my whisky till after the first break in the super roller tonight so should be alright on the final table.
look out for me i will be carrying the team 51 flag:))
107 players in the mix right now for tonight and massive overlay in the biggest game on the site for weeks.
Get into those sats for your chance to play on the big tables tonight on live national television and a shot at a massive cash prize.
Meantime- keep the answers coming in on rating yourself as a player- they're all excellent- I'll be reading them all out from 7pm onwards.
As soon as the game begins let's get those hands sent in. Clock the hand i.d. number from the Super Roller and post it to us on this thread with a a few words of explanation as to why you want it shown.
You don't have to be involved in the hand or even to be playing in the tournament- if you're watching tonight's tournament then please be our eyes and ears on the ground and alert us of anything huge on the baize. Brilliant poker play, sick hands, fantastic lay-downs, talking points etc etc.
Sum it up, how good do you think you are? What are your strengths? Weaknesses? What’s your killer weapon? What’s your Achilles heel? How far have you come in the last year?
My strengths :- When I'm playing well, I am ultra aggressive. My Weaknesses :-When I'm playing bad I'm still ultra aggressive My killer weapon :-Disguising my hands in the mid/late stages My achilles heel :- Poor timing when trying to bluff someone.
How far have I come in the last year :- Its difficult to assess as when I started back on Sky Poker in August/September I played really well up to Christmas, then I started a monster downswing. I am now on new tablets and my head feels a lot clearer and I have less pain which equals less propencity towards tilting. I would say I've learned a lot in the last year as I haven't missed a single 865 show. Knowing stuff doesn't necessarily equate to putting it into practice, so that is my goal this year. I will be trying to implement all the tips I've learnt over the stated period. Lets hope it starts tonight in the Super Roller. Best wishes. Shaun the Villa fan in Bham

Indeed- they're all on it like an Easter bonnet!
Blimey, I'm excited about this tournament. I'd defo be playing be it if I wasn't hosting it.
A little bit of value has gone begging there, sorry folks!
In Response to Re: SUPER ROLLER SUNDAY: this weekend's all-tourney massive live show on 865 with Rich and Reds : Lol! I see you're playing this one, mate. Best of British to you- throw me some hand i.ds if you get the chance and some thoughts on the game. Ty. Posted by RICHORFORD
I'm in now! So that adds to the value for all the Sharks who will be playing.lol. Had to wait till 17:30 as I have a £100 daily limit on deposits. I used my brain for once and put half in yesterday at 17:30. Buzzing about this tournament and can't wait to enjoy 5 hours of pokertainment. I'll be recording the Masters to watch after the 865 show finishes, so please don't give any spoilers out during the show.:) Best wishes from an excited Brummie. Shaun the Villa fan in Bham
Good luck to everyone playing in the super roller tonight, hope you all have a fantastic night.
My Strengths: Patience grinding low stakes cash and BRM. Also I think I do well in tournaments lasting a long time and I believe I have a good percentage of cashes to buy ins.
My Weaknesses: Commiting too many chips in tournaments to continuation bets after i've missed with AK etc only to fold to a 3 bet and give away far too much of my stack. My strength in tournaments is also a weakness as I play too tight which always allows me to reach final stages but I have yet to place first as I am usually short stacked by the end.
My killer Weapon: I've not really developed one yet. Improving my game slowly with the help of the Sky poker channel but missing alot of good shows because of my girlfriend wrestling the tv remote off me
My Achilles heel: Not having a bank roll big enough to play any main events of anything close to one
How far Have I come in the last year: Started early january using skys new player offer. Manged to use my ten pound free tickets to win a £3.30 DYM and a £3.30 roulette and since then grinded my bank roll to £100+ I'm hoping I can continue to build my bank roll through out this year and get a chance to play for some real money.
Looking forward to the show.
P.s Gl to Evil Pingu enjoy reading his diary and lets see if he can bink another one.

Nice post Smith. I think you've done well to grind your bankroll up and hope you continue to play well and keep improving. You'll be in Main Events soon and will hopefully get some big wins. Keep plugging away mate and I hope to see you posting on here in future about some major successes. Best wishes. Shaun the Villa fan in Bham
Just looked in the lobby and realised with the money I spent on satellites and eventually buying in direct anyway, I'll still be losing money if I min cash. Suppose I'll just have to take it down then :P
Only been playing poker for 10 days so still very much a novice but was going to have a shot at this big tourney tonight just for the lolz but missed the reg because busy on a cash table and even though i still managed to get onto the mtt lobby in time i somehow managed to make the super roller disapear from my screen by accidentally hitting low stakes at the bottom of the lobby and running out of time to reg by the time i realised what i had done !
Gutted (although with the experiance ive got it prob saved me £110 )
BTW Rich could you please stop trying to talk Tommyd into giving up his day job and playing poker 24/7 because things are hard enough for me on the cash tables to start off without seeing tommy sitting there all day long
Have a good show and could i say good luck to players Scotty77 and Tommyd who i have learnt so much from watching and listening to on ch865 and also player 1267 who i spoke to today and seems such a nice guy and i always like to see the good guys win
On the button, i think its fairly standard to open here.
When the flop comes and the player in SB leads, i'm hoping to call down quite cheaply should no scare cards come, when the 10 comes on the turn, i know i'm behind but should still i call the re-raise on the turn hoping for the miracle card, then knowing i will get paid IF it comes.
