Foggy:
The Fogmeister will be playing, but playing could be substituted for pushing given the structure

George2Loose:

BOINGBLITZ:
An example of Sky Poker tour play....

I button raise with  jh   ts   and BB, a 70-ish local lady calls.

flop is   :2d:    :3c:    9d     she checks, I c-bet, she calls. hmmmmmm.......

turn comes     7d     she checks, I bet again......she calls again.

river is    kd     she checks and looks sooooooo nervous.  I bet over half her stack......what could she call with unless its a big diamond ?

Well, after the classic comment "I have to call to see what you have", she calls and I insta-muck.....and she shows.........

ts    7c      !!!!!!    what the f.......what  WAS she thinking ???

She then preceeded to do me twice more before I built back up and then thought for AGES when I shoved my last 2775 on a 9-high flop with J-J......then said "Go on.....I call........IF YOU ARE BEATING QUEENS YOU ARE AHEAD !!!!!"

300 mile round trip for 90 mins poker and £32 for a room to keep my bag in for 3 hours as I left at 5pm for home.

I assure you this is NOT an unusual scenario  on the sky tour.
