Question for Ryan here, slightly related to DYMs..
What are your views when in the small blind in a timed MTT and even a DYM with no action prior to just muck your hand for chip preservation? Regardless of how many/little chips the BB has would you still be mucking complete junk as its not worth even making up the BB when it can be 5/10% of your stack towards the end of a timed mtt?
Good luck to Ryan during the next hour for his almost impossible task of reading the hand ranges of Mtt players he prob hasnt seen before.
If this was done tonight on the cash tables i would be so confident of Ryan being spot on with his hand selections of players he would no doubt have played time and time again but he really is up against it in a Mtt v players he prob wont have any history with.
Just goes to show though how important history with players and notes on players are.
welcome back to ryan good to see him back you defo picked the right player to follow hes gettin good playable hands and hitting good dodgy call with the kj tho.
did ryan enjoy vegas more this year than last year due to fact he had last years experiance?
Havent seen the show for awhile, but where is Tikay tonight??? He makes the show... Orford doesnt know how to play poker ... ( jus kiddin ), Loving the show as always lads!! tuned in for the night!
In Response to Re: Tonight's live TV show with Rich and Ryan- from 7pm on Channel 861***Be the star of Analyse My Play tonight - see latest post for details... : Is there a finishing order in the competition or just restraining orders? Posted by DUNMIDOSH
I don't know much about olympic events but the Sky poker team must be responsible for the 110 mertre hurdles! It's the only event with a rake! one hundred + ten I know Richard told Tikay he was entered in the event and acommodation would be provided. But could you please ask him to stop covering Rest Home signs in the vicinity of the Sky Studios with Olympic Village signs! Thank you Loved the coverage of Mewillows hands a great way to learn!
Great show as always - been watching during my DYM grind.
I'm about to play in the SPT semi @ 9.30pm - managed to qualify for it by binking a royal flush on Monday & won it via the promotion running on the forum - thanks Sky!
I'm also going to play in the DTD £500k deepstack on 1st Sept as part of my Team Sky poker package - if Ryan or anyone else is interested in going halves on a hotel for that, please PM me or reply to my thread on the forum.
Nice idea with blanking out the cards, gl for the rest of the night!
i like what you doing at the moment working out type of player but lets be honest most players fall into the categorys wreckless or terrified. i cant believe im watchin people bet min into big pots and others calling raises all the way with 2 random cards.
i agree with what richard said earlier i think i too have given people too much credit and folded when maybe i should be calling after watchin the last 2 hours
these days im not so good at check giving up... but at least i didnt bluff jam the river into the nuts... the reason i bet 1500 on the river is to get flush draws to fold... is this a bad line i have taken throughout the hand.. i guess so lol
Playing my first SPT Semi for Nottingham tonight, managed to get in for £8, really wanting to go to the grand final but way out of my bankroll unless I can get in cheap so fingers crossed!
Just went on break and I'm 8th out of 20... (27 started)
544935438 (primo hand i probably should not of called the reraise, but like you i seem to be giving the opponent credit fo a better hand and not letting my instincts go for it. this is probably the third hand against the same person tonite so i am beginning to wonder. had a bad run lately and letting it influence me a lot. comments please

Just want to say welcome back Ryan mate and well done on your Vegas trip.
Rich just wondering mate if you have told Ryan yet that there is a new addition to the Sky analysts attire ( A UZI Machine gun )
Have a good show
Daz.
Loving the new covering cards thing, great for improving ya hand reading skills, and it's something where we can play along at home.
Got an olympics one from Emma... she said Dohhhhh would win the 'Legless Race'
