Epic episode. Went back to the planner today to rewatch and the missus has deleted it. While it may be on catch up I am considering finding out if The Mountain does freelance work.
I have no idea how next week will pan out, and I love that fact. There are only two characters I've really wanted to get through this season and both I feared may die. Fingers crossed Sam is through it after the last episode and must have some Gilly loving on the cards now after being so macho. The other is obv The Imp. And I just can't see any way out for him. Also it feels like the TV series has been preparing us for life after Dinklage and I don't like it.

You'd hate the clock on my oven Sir. It's a 24hr clock and at midnight it reads 24:00 rather than 00:00. Really not sure why.

829390290 is the correct tourney
not 828832912
arbboy and 7 others are correct
maximumspew, foggynelson and no1betibet are in the cancelled comp
Yup I'm on that list. In a moment of rare organisation I regged for that early on today. Now it's not letting me dereg and get my token out. No dramas, will just flick it in in cash for the working one. I assume tokens will be recredited for any in the broken lobby?

I loved the Tyrion/Bron scene. One guy telling another guy 'You're a good mate but at the end of the day I can find other mates, and that bloke's huge.'
If Tyrion does make it through the trial I'm not sure where he goes from here. Even if he survives he's pretty much been sold out by everyone and doesn't have anywhere to go.
The Littlefinger/Sansa kiss was probably the creepiest thing I've seen this season on GoT, including the struggle cuddle.

IMO clubs both sides of the Atlantic now should employ finical professionals to protect their players. Wages in the top sports have rocketed. You give someone in their late teens/early twenties those sums of money, bearing in mind these days the those who command such high fees are put in a bubble from an incredibly young age and never told no, of course people will take advantage of them and of course they won't know the value of the money or the fact it can all end abruptly.

Hand 2 is an easy check behind for me. We have a strong claim on one half of the pot and zero claim on the considerable possibility of the other half of the pot being up for grabs.
Keep the pot under control, get to most show downs and attack the pot if the board runs out a strong high pot only in our favour. Let them level themselves with Bad A2xx hands or bad flushes when that comes in. The turn will pretty much define the route we should be going with this.
Hand 1, sigh, so pretty, but going multi way probably into the strongest parts of ranges. Fold.

Surely Tyrion has to pick Jamie, thus putting all of the Tywin legacy balls in one basket, meaning it's in his interests for Tyrion to win?
I loved the smirk by Dance after the deal was struck, such brilliant acting. Everything came together as Tywin wanted at that point, before Tyrion through a spanner in the works.

Spent the last two years reading the books. Won't spoil it for anyone, but amazed how much they differed(subtle tweaks like Bron never taught Jaimie to fight left handed, in the book it was Ilyn, the guy that chopped Ned Starks head off)from what went on in last nights episode, which leaves you sabre rattling at screen, but brilliant stuff nonetheless.
The actor who played Ilyn Payne has been diagnosed with cancer and retired from acting. That was the reason given for this change, however they may have went that way anyway. I've not read the books but I imagine having a mute train him and therefore someone who cannot tell another soul really works. However it probably wouldn't work on TV without Jamie constantly monologuing, which in turn wouldn't make sense for his present mind set. Stupidly I have erased the second episode from my TiVo, is anyone who still has it able to look if The Tyrel Queen Mother palms a stone from the necklace in the scene where she says to Sansa 'What sort of beast murders someone at a wedding?' So much win if that little snippet is in there.
