THE BH IS BACK! (***OFFICIAL LIVE SHOW THREAD***)

Yes, after a brief hiatus, to allow channel 865 to move studios, the Bounty Hunter returns to your screens at 8 o'clock this evening.

In a few minutes, I'll be setting off to Osterley and finding my way around the Sky Poker TV Channel's new home.

Tonight's show will feature the usual - almost-live analysis of hands from the main event (£33 buy-in; £15k guaranteed prizepool), some NLHE cash action and your questions and comments to skyopen@bskyb.com - plus a few anecdotes from last night's Christmas party.  But please don't get your hopes up: it was a relatively quiet evening and there's very little gossip to impart :(

Anyway, the conversation topic for tonight's programme has been suggested by my co-host Ed Giddins...

We'd like to hear about the most embarrassing incident in your life; the time when you wished the ground had opened up and swallowed you, saving you from your own shame!

Ed has two experiences he's willing to share ("Only two?" I hear you shout).  If you've got a story you'd like us to laugh at, please e-mail, or post it in this thread.

    Hey guys gl with the show. I will be working so will be watching the repeat 

    anyways. Most embarrasing moment. Would have to be when i was at school we where watching this very poor careers advice play thing. Anyways as it goes the entire room was quite noisey and i turned to my mates. Just as the room goes completely silent my very distictive voice says, "Well this a complete waste of time, Its rubbish" although my lanuage wasnt quite so clean. Never before and never since have i felt so stupid.

    Once had a one night stand when I had finished I went to the toilet naked, on the landing I met the ladys daughter and her boyfriend I just said evening and carried on walking! Her daughters boyfriend also drank at the pub were I drank so I had to re-live the moment with my mates taking the mick.
     Ps She was my first BBW I was 19 and she was 35.

    Stayed in a large Travelodge on the 6th floor. I was staying there on my own and went to bed after a boozy night.

    At about 4am I woke up in the corridor on floor 5 in just my boxers. Went up to my room, had locked myself out! 

    Had to go to reception on the ground floor in my boxers and explain... The receptionist and colleague found this rather amusing...

    The next night, i made sure i wore shorts and put the key in my pocket just in case lol. I have never stayed there again!

    Sleep walking ftw


    *************

    Have a great show guys, lots of gossip from last nights party please!

    well,one day i was in the house waiting for the bus,to go down town for a hair cut,i saw the bus arriving at the stop from my livng room window,so i ran out the back door,jumped the hedge, and caught the bus,unbeknown to me ,putting my foot in a dog pooh.i arrived at the barbers where there was a que,so i sat down and waited on my turn.as i was sitting for over an hour,continously crossing and uncrossing my feet.the barber shouted out next please ,it was my turn. as i sat down in the chair,and settled in,i suddenly got this awful whiff of dog pooh,i looked down,and all over the bottom of my jeans,and trainers was this humgous pooh,red faced and dying of embaressment, i jumped up and said i had to go ,and hastly ran out the shop.that night i went out to a party,with a girl i met the previous week.trying to impress her i told her the funny story,after which she told me,yes you guessed , her dad was the barber,and had told her a boy had made a right mess of his shop and chair.

    I did follow through at work once

    After going str8 to the toilet and cleaning up as best I could I realised i couldn,t go back in as i would be rumbled due to the smell, so phoned a taxi and sneaked out through the A&E entrance

    As it was still early I phoned up sick when i got home.

    The next day I was called to the managers office. When she ponted out that one of the receptionist in A&E had spotted me leaving in a cab i almost sunk into the chair. 

    I didn,t know what to say - After an awkward silence she asked what was wrong as i,d gone bright red and looked gobsmacked that I,d been spotted.
     
    I eventually explained it was a bit embarrsing and that i had suffered an unexpected dose of diahrea and couldn,t get to the toilet in time

    She was very good about it and appreciated my honesty and in the end put it down as annual leave - No-one else ever found out and she left a few weeks later  

    Have a good show guys

     Ealier you refered to corpral punishment in schools which reminded me of this true story.
     The teacher had forgot to pick up the register on her way in, so sent one of the pupils to go and get it. Five minutes later the lad had come back without it and was in floods of tears. He then went on to explain the depurty head had not let him explain why he was there and got him to bend over and gave him the cane.
     As far as I know thier was no apoligy and no further action was taken. How times have changed!

    i was chalking a darts match for my team when i needed to let gas out, i can be loud so not to put players off i squeezed my cheeks, it worked as there was no sound but there was forfiet, the pub emptied quickly as there was an aftermath ( rotten eggs) so i`m the only left in the pub and i could not even blame the landlords dogs as they did a runner too.

    James is talking out of the wrong orifice.
    Ed was exactly right - it is the average of the player's best eight finishes.

     thanks donut you brought memories back where i was in maths class where the person behind me was talking and the the teacher thought it was me, so she grabbed my hair and pulled me out off the class room , and people think i`m bald because i`m married ( now the secrets out )

    Stop digging James!

    The average is useful because it allows a simple comparison of people who have played eight (or more) events already with people who have played seven or less.

    It's VERY simple - Ed seemed to grasp it instantly until you muddied the waters.  :-)))
