Mastercash live tonight at 9pm on 865- with Rich, Trev and REDMOND!

Yes, you read that right folks.

Back by popular demand- we have 4 live hours this evening of TSP member Redmond Lee aka Lolufold.

His previous, and to date only, appearance on the live show was a revelation- he was a natural in the front of the cameras and he was dropping A-bombs of wisdom on every aspect of cash poker which the Sky Poker community were lapping up.

Here's a man who not only knows the game inside out, but consistently puts his money where his mouth is on Sky Poker. He crushes the game on the site and he's definitely in a small elite of players that you should be paying attention to when they open their mouth on game strategy.

And for good measure we've also got the awesome Trevor Harris- another proven successful cash player who can cut straight to the chase and give you some seriously sound advice.
So, set your PVRs and grab your notebooks. You'll be learning tonight. :)

But don't worry- to counterbalance all the education and Grade A content- I'm hosting the show. And it'll be business as usual from me, reading out your emails and thread posts and generally not taking things too seriously.

Disastermind is back tonight- so if you fancy 30 seconds on general knowledge to win entry into the Santa's Sack  tourney on the 28th, drop us an email on
skypoker@bskyb.com with your name, alias and phone number and we'll endeavour to get you on the show.

Tonight's two topics are then-

ASK REDMOND

Yes, here's your chance to probe the mind of one of Sky Poker's most successful cash players so you can emulate his success and sharpen your game. So fire away your questions on here and I'll pass them on.


And, 'just for fun' as they say in the business...

COMEDY INJURIES

Yes, word reaches me that earlier this week Sky Claire walked straight into some glass see-through doors here at the new offices.

Both Sky Mandy and I have walked into lamp-posts in our time. And I also once stuck a rubber suction pad to my forehead, which, once I had eventually managed to pull off, left a perfect circle in the middle of my forehead which didn't wear off for about a month! Yes, my very own over-sized Indian bindi.

So, how about you? Make us laugh with your comedy injury stories...

Everyone who contributes tonight will be thrown in the hat and a TSP classic entry will go to a randomly drawn winner.

Looking forward to your messages and enjoy the show!

Oh, and did I mention we'll be in a new studio as well? See you at 9pm!

    very similar to the walking into the lampost.

    Id had a few too many to drink well when i say a few alot too many. So i decided im going to the chip shop for a pizza, chips and fish. Only to discover i didnt have enough money on me. So cashline is just outside the chip shop. Perfect so i start to walk and walk in the wrong direction. I quickly realise turn around start to run for some unknown reason. I feel a massive thump to my right shoulder (which id got operated literally a year to the day before) and then a second to the same shoulder as i hit the ground at force. Ma bankcard and whats left of my money go flying.

    Morale of the story - drinking hurts for a good few days. It took me a week before my arm was in use again.

    2 Questions for Redmond - maybe unfair, ask him if he's comfortable answering before you ask the first.....

    Now that his battles with K88 have finished, how would he rate K88 as a heads up player compared to the other regular opponents he's faced on sky? - What was the thought process behind his reducing tactic? - And was he up overall in the heads up games?

    Another question......that could help me out.....

    Did he ever have any psychological problems with moving up a level in cash games? 
    People say as long as you are rolled, the beats/losses don't hurt. 
    I've got a bankroll that can comfortably play £1/2 blinds, but am reluctant to even sit at a 25/50p table nowardays, coz I've been playing and beating my usual 15/30p level for so long. Any advice? Should I see a shrink?

    Hi to all i really enjoy the Saturday mastercash show keep up the good work guys.Iwould like to ask Redmond and Trevor if they ever play limit poker(i suspect it would be to passive for Redmond) and do they think that a good limit player could prosper at no limit holdem.

    Gl 2 nite In the new studio Rich and Trevor. Hi Redmond. Considering the awesome amount of hours you put In on the tables, I was wondering, do you have a regular amount of uninterupted sleep per night/day or do you just take power naps between sessions? Thanks Tia

    hi rich, trev, redmond...

    my comedy injury was whilst playing darts. 

    i thought it would be a good idea to give my mate a fright by pretending to stab him with a dart.  i didn't want to hurt, just frighten, so the solution was to hold the dart as normal but use my little finger to cover the sharp end point to cushion the impact. 

    smiling in anticipation, i approached him, showing him the dart and made a quick stabbing movement to his shoulder.   my smile disappeared as i stabbed my own finger instead.

    regards
    rob

    Hi guys. Good luck for the show tonight.
    Not so much a comedy injury but reaction to an injury. I was working nights and was the first aider on shift. Got called to a guy who had cut his finger badly. Called his boss down to report on the injury. He strode in, took one look at the cut, fainted and went head first into the medical trolley. What made it funny was the fact that the boss was 6 foot 8 inches tall and something of a 'hard man'. His reputation went out of the window once the story got out.
    Have fun.

    Hello Rich, Trev and Redmond,
    Iwas wondering if The Santa's Sack tournement will be featuring on The Sky Poker TV channel
    at any time over the festive season, I mean c'mon lets face it there's only so many times
    we can force ourselves to watch all those so-called family favourites, and i'm sure the entry list
    will be the A-list of Sky Pokers finest

    Good luck with the show in your new place tonight guys.

    Question for Reds.

    I have been a Tournament player on Sky now for over 12 months and remarkable, with variance and down swings, I am still in profit overall. I am considering playing cash in the new year and would like to know what is a decent level to begin at and what minuim BR I should have?

    evening guys, i regularly go running as a kinda hobby thing. One time i went, i trod on a truly humongous pile of dog poo with my trailing leg. my front leg collapsed, my head tipped and i fell, spraining my shoulder somehow and knackering up my ankle. It was a very embarassing, and smelly walk home....
