I'll go for a football one like Kiwini then... Three Lyonsbobs on a shirt It's coming home It's coming home It's coming Poker 's coming home Everyone seems to know my game They've seen it all before They just bluff They're so sure That Lambert 's gonna Throw it away Gonna blind it away But I know I can play Cos' I remember Three jacks on the flop Poker_Fail still gleaming 100 big blinds of hurt Never stoppped me playing So many rubs , so many jeers But all those oh so nears Wear your BR down Through the month But I still see that Two pair on flop And when Poker_Fail shoved The turn filling my boat And raking the pot Three jacks on the flop Poker_Fail still gleaming 100 big blinds of hurt Never stopped me playing I know that was then But I could bink again It's coming home It's coming home It's coming Poker 's coming home Three jacks on the flop Poker_Fail still gleaming 100 big blinds of hurt Never stopped me playing Posted by Lambert180
Excellent mate, but let's not go down the route of changing all the lyrics to songs, people! I can't read it all out on air! Let's stick to song titles and/or bands/artists.
Short and snappy please. Maybe with a sentence or two of lyrics thrown in if you must :-)
And now the end is near And so I face the final outdraw
My opponent I'll say it clear I'll show my cards of which I'm certain
I've played a game that was basically awfull I bet each and every street And more, much more than this I lost it my way
Redraws I've had a few But then again too few to start a thread I did what I had to do And luckboxed it through without redemption
I played each set of course Each careful hand along the binkway And more, much more than this I lost it my way
Yes there were flops I'm sure you knew When I bluffed more than I could chew But through it all when there was doubt I 3 bet lightto see it out, I faced it all And I stood tall and lost it my way
I've swore I've cried and cried I've had my fill, my share of donking
And now as tears subside I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that And may I say not in a proper way Oh no, oh no, not me I lost it my way
For what is a bad beat what has it got If not the software, then it is not To say the things he truly feels And not the words which make the mods squeal My poker record shows I took the beats

Looks great on paper- very tedious to read out for the viewers in their entirety, unfortunately!
Just song titles, band or artist names if you please!!!
PLUS- we've gone prize crazy this week.
5K open Tues main event seat next week for the best poker jukebox suggestion, PLUS TWO SPT Blackpool Semi seats for this Thursday night for the two best poker message contributions tonight for anything else- eg questions, wisdom, thoughts, hand id, etc etc.
Get writing to be in with a chance, I do the judging so impress me!
In Response to Re: Tonight's live show on 865 with Rich and Redmond! ***official show thread*** : Super Roller is 3rd June we will just be talking about it and what people can expect in tonight's Chat Box show from 10pm. Hope that makes sense, if not BLAME ORFORD Posted by Sky_Claire
I've been playing alot of chess recently, and one of the obvious differences is that there is zero luck factor in chess, and unlike poker, the player with the significant edge will never lose against the weaker player. Slightly off topic, but chess has helped me realise the importance of having to think not only 1 or 2 moves ahead, but 3 or 4, or more.
In chess it is a massive mistake to have commited a key piece (say a rook/castle) to being taken without having realised a few moves earlier that this would happen and having worked out a plan to combat this problem. Likewise in cash, without stating the obvious, it a big mistake to find yourself pot commited/needing to shove without having seen this coming long before it happened.
For this reason, I think you need to be considering ALL of your bet/raise sizes very carefully. Clearly raising larger pre, will then mean any 3bets to you/4bets you make will be much larger, and if you're flat called pre, any c-bets will need to be larger. In a sense, I think if you're 100BB deep, then you need to have decided as soon as the flop comes out, whether you're willing to go all the way (whether it be on a bluff, or draw, or TP). Once you've made this decision, that will dictate what route you take, whether it be, check/call, check/raise, bet/call, bet/fold.
I know you probably won't be able to read all this out, so in summary, you need to have your full plan for the hand decided as soon as possible, so you know (for example) whether you're playing your draw very aggro and willing to jam missed draws or playing a lower variance method.
Sorry if I went on a bit, but I really want the Blackpool semi seat :P lol.
Ask the Expert. Did I play this hand right post flop?
Hand Id 518166024 from Friday's Rebuy Open. My plan pre-flop when I called the raise (he had been raising too often after losing most of his chips) was to check raise any good flops, check call any reasonable flops, and check fold any clearly bad flops. I check raised and he went all in and I really didnt expect much of a hand from him. I thought my bet size was to extract value, he thought I was bluffing. Was it good or bad play from me?
