Based on the fact that I'm currently on a big downswing in my poker fortunes, I thought it only fair to let you guys know that I'll be on the tables tomorrow night (Tuesday May 25th) from 7pm till midnight for Play The Presenter, so you have every chance of taking advantage of a man on the ropes!
My PTP bankroll has halved since the heady days of about two months ago (don't worry Des, it's still around what I started with!) but I'm sure if I stick to the basics I can play my way back into form.
So keep an eye out for me, and even if you don't play me, drop into the chatbox and say hello.
My alias is RichOrford. Tap that into the 'Find A Player' function in the Poker Lobby tomorrow night then come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!

Oi, get off my patch Orford.
Tuesday is the 26th (TWENTY-SIXTH) not the 25th.
Monday 25th - yes, MONDAY 25th - is reserved for a much higher calibre PTP Host.
So, on Monday 25th - tonight - I shall be the PTP-er, & I shall be mainly playing......
8.15 Deepstack. £5 + £0.50.
9pm £5,000 Guaranteed BH, £10 + £1
So that's £16.50 invested.
Plus random cash Tables, at varying Levels.
I'm also doing a few Live Phone-Ins to tonight's Show, so if you want a shout out, come find me on the Tables, & I'll do my best to oblige. You can look me up on "Find a player", I'm playing as "Tikay10".
Butr whatever you play tonight, just enjoy, & Good Luck.

Bit of a train-wreck in the 9pm Open, when I exited in the, well, first hand. Holding J-J, I somehow got teased into going All-In Pre after a series of Raises & Re-Raises in front of me. I was up against A-A and......K-10. K-10 scooped the lot, obviously. My bad play, no excuses.
I managed to cash in the Sleepstack though, but I had to get lucky in that, too.
Holding Kd-9d, the Flop came Q-9-9, 1 diamond.
The chips all went flying in on that flop, & my Opponent had me totally locked up, with A-9, oops. So I needed to hit a K, to house up, basically. No miracle King was to fall, but running diamonds got me there.......
What can I say? These things happen, but that was really ugly stuff. Sorry Mr Opponent!
OK, I'm doing Play The Presenter tonight. I'm feeling quite confident about it because I think I've finally seen the back of a 3 week tilt/downswing both on my Play The Presenter roll and my personal bankroll.
It's been something of a train-wreck but I'm pleased to say that in the last few days I've had a run of results which, whilst not exactly making me any profit, have steadied the ship.
In other words, I'm not losing left, right and centre anymore. And right now, let me tell you, that feels like winning!

Good Luck Rich. I know you been on a sick cooler, so I hope it's now turned.
I'll be On the Site tonight, so I'll come & Rail you for a bit.

Haha, there's an option at the end of your email which invites me to "Ignore Tikay10". If only I had that feature available to me during our shows together...
Yes, I've definitely got the right date thanks. A date which will live in infamy. The date that Orford took down the Open!

Lolz, now you are living in Cloud Cuckoo-Land.
Tell you what. Fancy a Last-Longer in Tonight's Open?
If anyone else wants to join in, you are welcome. But I'm the likeliest last-longerist. As we shall see, later this evening.

OK, you're on!
Let me know in the chatbox for how much.
I'm guessing since your MO is to log on, have a 'senior' nap, then wake up when you're down to 2 big blinds, that you comfortably win the majority of your last longer bets...?

The 15k bounty hunter. And to make it even better I won my seat 2 weeks ago from a £2.65 satellite (albeit I had to go through 2 sat's but what a great ROI that could be!)

184th here.
"Slowly away, always behind, never threatened leaders, faded badly, tailed off. Probably hopeless".
Sigh.
Still in the Sleepstack though, which started 2 hours ago, 19th of 33, ZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz..........
on the cash now, nice double up early doors!!! always nice!!!
