I will be commentating each evening from Thursday to Monday on APAT final tables/cash from the WCOAP, live streamed with hole cards
Des can explain where and how you can view them
Good to be back. 8)
Now then, if you fancy a spin on the commentary turn-tables, and to volunteer for a stint behind the microphone alongside me...
you should post in here with your commentary credentials
- no experience is necessary...
- you can withdraw if you make every final table (note: fatcatstu, ignore this, doesn"t apply to you obv)
Here are some of the things you might need
1. Sheepskin coat. You never know when you might need one in the commentary business.

2 Extensive Player Notes, and love of post-its

I gather those at the event will be able to watch back in the weeks to come, so extra good news if you make a final.
I think this is the rough plan for commentary
Thurs - Team (S & G"s 6 or 8 handed)
Fri - Six Max
Sat - Cash (run 8 handed)
Sun - Omaha
Mon - Main event final
Over to you.....
-
Happy to do slots in any/all as mentioned in the APAT preview podcast.
Will be around till end as am doing winners "interviews" for post WCOAP podcast ill e doing after the event.
Looking forward to it. :)
-
I would be well up for some stints please. Particularly Omaha and main event
-
Happy to do a Duo with Fatcatstu.
-
If Im not to drunk. On second thought good luck with your search Rich.. ;D ;D
-
Cards will be seen in the Omaha event? Oh gawd. Apologies in advance. ::)

I"d be happy to contribute Friday/Saturday if i am knocked out of the tournament.
-
I"d love to do some of this.
I"m there everyday except Saturday.
-

+1
I would also be interested if you are short on people (which is unlikely)
EDIT: Actually I might be able to do you a useful stint on the final table of the main event, I have played four of them and can confirm there is something different and special about the DTD one. Maybe I could be useful to you in that capacity as it is nice to have some experience on the mic ???

In for deep hand analysis and abuse.

Ab Fab to have you back Tighty ;D ;D ;D
-
Get me down for this Tighty! My credentials are that I know an Ace from a 4 at 60 yards and I have a large bag of Blue Riband biscuits to get through over the weekend.
I likley can"t make the PLO as thats the one I"m probably gonna win. All the others though, my insight is at the ready!
-
I will not be volunteering but I would like to say it"ll be good to have you back.

Sure, why not. Will be there Fri-Mon. Playing all those events though, so... who am I kidding, it"ll be fine.
-
Happy to do this with you Tighty.
Have done it many times and can do when required (obv if I am still in then no, so I"m free :))
Comfortable with all formats. including team, cause I know how it feels :(

True lol

In for all of this if you need the help, comfortable with all the formats especially the limit and HU formats
-
Will be there Fri, Sun and possibly Saturday. Happy to help as soon as I bust out. So level 2 onwards I guess.
-
Wouldn"t mind doing a wee bit of commentary on the Main Event Day 1b, that"s dependant on me making it through Day 1a.
-
Hmmmm I think team USA have a good candidate..
Stapes! Would be great to see if Des could twist his arm to do a stint in the commentary :)
-
I can help if you need me!
I"ll be there on saturday...
I can speak several languages and I was a photographic reporter for many years... so if you need some translation or help in interviews, photos etc you just ask :)

I might take you up on the translation offer Pedro, if any of the Scottish players win a bracelet... ;)
-
looooooooool Des!!!
Scottish is not one of my known languages!!!
I even struggle to understand Yorkshire (where I live) sometimes...
I can help in Spanish Italian French Portuguese... sry for my lack of languages skills :)
-
Tighty, I"ll be around this weekend and will be happy to do a stint when not playing.
-
I"m up for this bit of fun. I"m def available Saturday night (at least) & perhaps more if the pull of the bar doesn"t get the better of me, and I can speak North American. I can also translate to English from Scottish and Irish.
-
happy to help if required
-

News of which table we will cover when I see the PLO STT draw...
Please share the link above on fb, twitter etc and hopefully plenty of people will tune in
APAT Live from DTD for 5 days of finals until we reach a main event winner on Monday night....
-
Would be happy to have a spin if needed/wanted, have done live streaming of poker events before from DTD and live commentary streamed for online events too,
As a true masochist, would be especially interested in the Razz (if I bust out of it of course!)...
-
I would like to do some commentary, especially if one of my friends make one of the final tables. We will all be wearing out "Micro Grinder" snot green team hoodies, so will be easily recognisable
-
I"d just like to hear Steve Roderick say something like "We will eats them up like raw fishes we will my precious" ;D
-
Thank you to all of the following who have helped out on commentary over the first three nights
Dann Williams
Dave Howard
Daniel Phillips
Steve Roderick
David Rudling Smith
Richard Sheils
James Barber
Two more nights to go, if you are at DTD and want to try it, just knock on the door into the Tardis tonight...
-
Tighty, will the feeds be replayed anywhere? Apparently you were "brutal" to us lot on the final table of the Six Max. I want to watch it back before I hunt you and the ginger kid down.... I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.
-
lol, briliant!
The action was recorded and we will tidy them up slightly and put on the APAT site in the next week or two.
-
Cheers Des, thanks for that and a great weekend. Would have hung around but I think Im broken!

Sharkey
I described it as I saw it. Including the white tracksuit top, son.
Not the finest of viewing experiences (and the poker wasn"t either :D)
-
