You lot really don't get out enough...
Tikays going to have the nicest surprise waiting for him at work tonight - IM WORKING - woohoooo I hope the excitement doesn't give him a heart attack. Richard has man flu and may not survive so I have stepped in at the last minute after having to cancel all of my exciting Friday night plans.
I am about to leave Essex and make my way round the horrendous M25 which is gonna take HOURS, although I get to wear my new jacket I bought yesterday..yey

Now if I knew what a gable-end was I'm sure I would be suitably offended, but as for bloody mersey tunnel.... again probably a fair enough description..dam it  Out of all of these delightful insults though I think I'm most worried about 'Slightly Furry to Touch' now any residue left on my ample butt from Tikays furry mitts is no fault of my own. I have to say though, thanks so much for your comments, I climb a lot anyway, I've done Ben Nevis and Snowdon and I rock climb every week so Kilimanjaro should be no worries, although every report seems to read that it's the hardest most gruelling experiences you can go through and 1/3 don't make it unless they have a personal doctor up there giving jabs for Altitude sickness, so I'm trying not to underestimate it. Charity's for Malaria and the poverty in Africa is close to my heart and I'm trying to raise as much as possible so please please donate just £2 and it will make such a difference, £5 makes the difference to whether a child dies or not, think about that, we do all really have it so nicely here in England. Can't believe they won't let me take my nail file up the mountain though  Oh and Ample is the choice of word for Tikay because it has never been implied to him before He He xxx

Just watch what you say about Orpey - she'll be "on thread" later this afternoon. She's currently at the Gym, to be followed by a visit to the Sauna. Best not to even think about it. She has her 36th birthday next week, by the way. .
I'm gonna start with a very simple IM TWENTY NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE still in my 20's for another 2 months, to get to your age Tikay you have to use multiples of my age which are far too advanced for your simple poker mind.....

Damn you Facebook, damn you... The first is a detail of a larger photo. I'm actually on a night out in London and I've got a hot babe on either arm- who just happen to be narrowly out of shot. The second is a "production meeting" with my fellow Sky Poker presenter DP Fitzgerald on a work night out. And although we are indeed declaring our love for one another, it's in a manly-we're-very-very-drunk kind of way. I can confirm that in my possession is another picture of DP and Richard 'Sealing the Deal' if ya know what I mean  He has paid me vast amounts of money to keep this to myself though...Dp on the other hand has paid me money to show it as he is proud of the catch - so the bidding war is on M xx

Well unfortunately TK was running scared and kept putting it off ALL day....I tried and tried and he kept saying in a minute in a minute, and then I heard him tell Compo that he was actually trying to avoid me because his heads up play isnt that good and he knows I'm a Heads Up demon and he didn't want to look like an idiot. SO instead he just showed his big podgey yellow belly to everyone......

All the best in vegas Michelle but you can't get away with saying `I have a good game', `I played some great poker'. Then say stuff like you should have passed 99 with 10 bb's and `I called with kk because I thought he had ak'. The ak, kk and 99 all sound like insta insta/auto/easy peasy calls/shoves. If you have someone helping you with your game then they need to have a long chat with you about opponents ranges of hands and how hands like 99/ak/kk stack up against them. Anyway, it's a bit rich having a pop when my one moment of fame on tv involved dwelling for ages pre flop with ak, and ..............slowrolling like a %$nt?, no....... I passed.
I gotta disagree with you there. The 99 was a bad shove with 10/12 BB's because there had been a raise and a re-raise. I was always going to be behind. It is arguable but it is not an instant call. Also, the KK was always a call I never said it wasn't. I was just telling you what I put him on and I put him on an AK which is why I was surprised when he turned over TT. The AK call pre-flop for most my stack wasn't an instant call either, if I'm up against any pair its a race. I chose to take that chance but having 10 seconds to make that decision is absolutely fine. I paid my money I think I'm allowed to think for 10 seconds before commiting most my stack with whatever hand I have. It's not like its the nuts so therefore its not slow rolling.

Hello Gentleman Firstly, I wouldn't worry about offending me, it can't be done. I'm completely un-offendable. I actually find it hilarious when people try and take the mick out of me and I'm always up for a bit of banter and I'm quite happy for it to get personal because usually people cant handle it back and that makes me laugh even more  being a bit dopey works wonders for me because the hidden genius underneath is well hidden.....very well hidden, so well hidden that not even I can find it sometimes, but believe you me....it's there, and it comes out to play every now and then against certain stupid male poker players that forget to give me any credit. The other day someone made a comment that the only reason I got a poker sponsorship deal is because I'm blonde with breasts and on the tele...hahaha...you think? Give the man a spot prize. I think if I was butch with a penis then I would definately not be sitting in Vegas right now playing poker through a sponsorship deal. Anyway yes I am blonde, I have breasts and I am on the tele. Luckily for me I have a good game as well. I'm no Phil Hellmuth but then not many of us on here are are we. So the AK hand, I vaguely remember it but cant remember the stack sizes or blinds or anything. All I remember is I had him covered. You can't slow roll pre-flop if you ask me anyway. Even Aces get folded pre-flop by some people in some situations. You should always think for just a second, you may ave missed something. I thought slow rolling was when someone has the nuts and dwells before calling an all in anyway. I actually had ace high and was thinking whether I wanted to call an all-in pre flop with it. I thought for a few seconds and then I decided that this was a good idea. I always think for a few seconds before I call any hand for a large portion of my chips unless I have the nuts or I have already made the decision before they act. AK against any pair is a race, this is for most my stack, I think for a bit and then I decide its worth the risk and call.....I dont get the problem. So I went out about 600th out of 2398 people. I played some great poker but tilted a bit after a bad beat at the end which took a lot of my chips. I went all in with 99 after a raise when I had 10 big blinds left. Should of waited, but was really pleased with the days play. I just went out the $1500 event. I had KK and raised two limpers, one called the raise and the other went all in. I figured I was up against AK and all I would have to dodge was an ace so I called. The other limper called as well. The all in guy had TT and said he was squeezing and the other shortstack limper had QJ. I was well ahead but the TT man hit his T of course........GUTTED. I was left short stacked and was all in with AJ on a board of AQ7. The other guy had AK and I went out  Oh well, so they were my two bracelet events. I'm now going to play in a couple of the deepstacks at the Venetian and try make some mulah. Wish me Luck xx
