Title: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: simonnatur on March 05, 2015, 04:06:02 PM Whilst the pros on here may not learn much from his streams, I think he is very entertaining and good for the image of poker.
Surprising to me on a number of fronts: Will be quite a feat of endurance if he completes the ten weeks of 7 hour days Nobody had a bad word to say about him on 2+2 when he signed for Pokerstars Taken the Corporate dollar without going corporate (God forbid he even discusses drug taking in the stream) http://www.twitch.tv/jcarverpoker Title: Re: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: Marky147 on March 05, 2015, 04:12:40 PM I like him, and always enjoy listening to him when they have him commentating etc.
Always comes across very well. Good luck to him!

Been trying to get the UK version of that for ages, to no avail... Damn PCTs!

Title: Re: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: Ash1591 on March 11, 2015, 02:14:07 PM Not sure if everyone is aware but he managed a 5th in the Super Tuesday last night and streamed it. He lost a big flip with AK vs TT for the chip lead unfortunately but was great to see such a big final table on twitch!

Really fun stream, and it shows he's really is a boss when it comes to it and he's not messing around in microstakes comps for the stream. Also another good streamer (twitch.tv/pokerstaples) won the Big $109 last night live for $20,000. I think the $30,000 by JCarver is the current record for biggest win on Twitch right now?

Totally sucks for PokerStaples that he gets that big win the same day Somerville wins $30k. Staples is a bit more interesting IMO as he is an organic Twitch success rather than an established name. I interviewed him this week, seems a good lad.

Wasn't aware of pokerstaples success, he's a good kid hope he keeps winning! And the record for stream sits at $43,600 by NL_Profit who won the Bigger $162 on Sunday! Title: Re: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: Mark_Porter on April 27, 2015, 01:09:03 PM Feels like Twitch is on the brink of exploding in popularity.
Daniel Negreanu won $50K playing 400/800 mixed games last week on Twitch and the stream was really interesting and fun to watch. Him battling with Sauce in particular. Have watched a fair bit of Jamie Staples as well. Again - interesting to watch and learn from. Any blondes twitching? Pads Sunday session or Lil Dave PLO would be good. Would be a good profile raiser if your into that sort of thing. GG training sites though. Title: Re: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: Steve Swift on April 27, 2015, 02:13:43 PM Watched Barry Greenstein playing the Sunday Billion play money, even I could see how far behind his game is by todays standards. I know it was play money but he was taking it really seriously which is no surprise but he lacked some off the basics of today's game.

Deffo feel that it has helped my game improve. Looking to watch more of Jason once Carver has finished his 70 odd day stream!

Title: Re: Jason Somerville PokerStars Pro - streaming on twitch for ten weeks non-stop Post by: Omm on May 04, 2015, 03:08:01 PM Moor ruined his life Certainly seemed that way, was flying until chris moved to his left, sure he realised he should have just shoved K7cc sb v Chris's bb rather than limping and playing it oop and effectively ending his tournament. Anyway it was interesting to watch, dissecting the tournament with him and seeing, not just his moves but what other people are prepared to call off that late in a fairly decent online tourney is quite intriguing. Will certainly be watching him playing the scoop main event.

Would be more selective about opening hands etc
