Title: Whats happened to Lucy Rokash Post by: ACE2M on June 18, 2006, 05:27:35 PM I always liked her play and her commentary but why do we never see her on tv anymore? Does she not play as much?

Title: Re: Whats happened to Lucy Rokash Post by: Sark79 on June 18, 2006, 05:40:50 PM I don't really know much about her play. But I was never a fan of her commentaries. She spoiled a lot of TV poker for me. I prefer Barny Boatman and Gary Jones.

Very aggressive, fearsome player Much like her commentaries which I like for their directness but I know many feel overstep the mark in their implied criticisms Title: Re: Whats happened to Lucy Rokash Post by: tikay on June 18, 2006, 07:09:49 PM Chili & I had a very long chat with Lucy last night in Walsall. She says she is "bang out of form" & so is not playing much until it turns. She was extremely helpful to Maria, giving her a whole load of help & advice. Top Lady. She was not invited, oddly many may think, to commentate upon the latest series of Late Night Poker. As a player, I consider her to br World-Class - her record confirms that.

Title: Re: Whats happened to Lucy Rokash Post by: snoopy1239 on June 18, 2006, 10:52:46 PM She was on my table for the £150 PLH R/B at Walsall.
Just out of interest, there was a hand where i raised preflop, received avout 100 callers, including Lucy, Flop came T-8-2, everyone checked (I had 9-6... eek), Turn came a 4. She bet 700 (about pot), I almost called in preparation for a river bet, Maeyboy called in LP. River = 7. (darn, I would have made my straight!) Lucy checks, MB bets, then Lucy reraises for most her stack (!!). MB moves in and Lucy is pot committed and calls. Lucy = 2-2 MB = J-9 I would have done my chips in, but I just thought it was an interesting hand with a strange check raise on the end. Julian didn't seem to think it was odd, but I didn't see the benefit of reraising. I would have just called. Maybe that's why Julian and Lucy do better than me. Title: Re: Whats happened to Lucy Rokash Post by: I, Zimbra on June 19, 2006, 01:14:07 AM I always liked Lucy's commentary; a bit like Nic Szeremeta, I thought she complemented Mr. May well.
