Hello all,

hope you are well, enjoying the Olympics? The SkyPoker Olympics of course and also the one on the tele!

Tikay and I will be together once again, and the night kicks off with:

7pm  Live coverage of TV timed tournament (now in the lobby) 600 GTD £5.50 buy in, 30 minutes starts 7.10pm

8pm  Poker Clinic- please get your hand requests in.

9pm  Poker School   Playing a satellite.

10pm  Top of the Pots - Top 20 biggest cash hands of the week.

11pm  Sky Poker Highlights - 12k Bounty Hunter coverage.

We will give  away a seat to the 5k Open on the 7th August, and because we are on SkySports4, the comp closes early at 9.30pm.
So,  after watching several medals being won, and my  mum and sister running race for life , been feeling quite proud this week
So the question is..

what has been your proudest moment? Won a medal!?  Won anything!? In poker or life? Feel free to brag away......

Best contribution to the show wins. simples.

    Hi there Anna.  The Olympics are on the telly?  I can't say I have noticed!

    The proudest two moments in my life are, amazingly, not poker related.  The first one was when I took my first unaided steps after my back surgery.  Getting used to having feeling in my legs again took some doing!  The second one was when my girls were one and two and I had strapped them into their car seats.  Just before I started the car, my eldest said "Daddy, could you put freebird (the Lynyrd Skynyrd classic) on please"  My youngest said " Yes Daddy, fweebyrd"  So young but they have such a great taste in music already!

    Have a great show and run well on the tables all

    Hi guys

    Have a good show

    Just wanted to post a hand request from a mastercash table you were covering on tuesday night involving Greghogg, Tommyd and Offshoot and a hand that happened just after you had gone off air.

    I wasnt actually at the table but when watching it i saw this hand and just wondered if it was a classic case of one player sensing weakness and floating the flop then the player on the button knowing this was happening then making a play to take down a pot which he knew was up for grabs, or perhaps i am totally wrong and he actually had a hand :)

    Anyways i just thought it looked a interesting hand to show tonight so wrote down the ID after it happened.

    Hand id: 0548183080 mastercash 13  1/8/2012 (could be 31/8/2012 though cos was right at time show was finishing).

    TYIA

    Daz.

    Hi Tikay,

    The question is have the free Poker apps changed the way people are playing the game with so many players playing any two cards?

    Have a great show will have to catch the replay as off to watch the graet Dundee Utd v Dymano Moscow

    My proudest moment in poker....

    has to be when I went top of sharkscope's Double Your Money wins in a row leaderboard, yes a brag!  But what makes me even more proud is it has network 'SkyPoker' next to my name, and yes I would say anything to win a seat!

    Have a good show, Derek. :)

    OK as it's officially OK to brag, a couple of tenuously Olympic related photos of me from my track cycling racing days:

    Very proud of this one as it shows me INFRONT of current Tour de France and Olympic champion and all round good egg, Bradley Wiggins (I'm the one in the red and black pretty much in the centre of the picture, Wiggo is 5 behind me in the red, white and blue, photo taken at Herne Hill Velodrome in 2006).




    This one is was taken at Mildenhall grass track meeting in 2008 (tenuous Olympic bit - this is organised every year by Victoria Pendletons dad, Max) and show me after winning the coverted World Hoop Race Championship, a very silly event which I can only describe as a cycling equivalent of musical chairs:

    Ugh...!

    This is either an inspired play by offshoot where he is squeeze  semi-bluffing the flop with spades and overs... or... hes trying to build the pot with a strong value hand... ( a set would be my best guess)

    Tbh even i dont know which one! Tommy has worse air than me tho thats a certainty :)

    Im not even sure i have many decent life moments that qualify. Hense is the issues with being young lol. As a result i have to probably have to add the happiest moment of my life which lead to my biggest blowup. 

    I the £1mil GTD UKIPT Nottingham at DTD this year i qualified in for a mere £50, I crashed on pillows on a floor after not even remembering to book a room so had to sneak in and out of a hotel, and against players much better than myself i managed to finnish Day 1C 2nd in chips (14th overall) only behind Chris Brammer, and got to hold the chip lead in the tournament i probably wasnt good enough to play in for just under an hour. 

    This lead to my most shameful moment when i made a coupe of mistakes and a littlerun bad meant i couldnt outlast the 100 players i needed to just to get a min cash. But i still got to feel like i was good enough even if it was just for one night.

    good evening Anna, Tikay

    have a great show and enjoy yourselves.

    my biggest sporting brags were when i beat the world champion field archer at junior level (not at the world championships though lol) and then being indoor scotish field archery junior champ.  doesnt sound much until i mention that i am registered blind.

    best poker brag was coming 2nd in the survivor series after only playing for about 4 months.  i was well chuffed.  i have learned a lot from watching sky poker.

    onwards and upwards :-)
