Is is a cool concept of seeing the celebs play cards. I much prefer the conversations on Dinner for 5 on IFC. Looks to me they are trying to copy that program with a poker slant instead of food. I wonder if Jon Favreu plays poker?

Caroline, Reiki, and Kady, I increased your all ins by 4 to account for the 4 automatic ones. If you want it changed, let me know before the next one airs.

I wouldn't call them automatic considering the player still has to make the decision on whether they will do it or not. The word I would use would be "guaranteed".

What I meant is that there will automatically be 4 per show, so each person's picks needs to include those 4 plus however many they think will happen.

Questions about the "All In".

Sometimes a person with more chips says they are "All In", but it is really the other person (with less chips) that is "All In". If this happens for Question 6, is the correct answer the person who has less chips and is actually "All In" or is it the person who says it but is actually not "All In"?

And for question 7, are you only counting "All In" bets that are matched by another better or are you also counting them if all other players fold?

Thanks.

Here is my understanding, though Puttergirl can clarify for the sake of the game.
In your first example, both would be considered "all in" even if the pot was reduced because the person who called the bet had fewer chips because the initial bet was an "all in". If everyone else folds it still counts as an "all in" because the bet was still made.
The only time I wouldn't count an "all in" is when someone on a short stack goes "all in" first and someone with more chips calls them. In that case the first bet would be an "all in" where the second bet wouldn't be. Unless of course they raised the bet and went "all in" themselves.

ANSWERS to Bob2112 questions: Whoever begins the "all in" will be counted as the one who initiated it for the sake of the 7th question. I'm going to define "all in" as someone pushing all their chips in and stating they are "all in", regarDless of their chip count. It also won't matter who has the most chips- him/her or others at the table who call. An "all in" is NOT: someone calling a bet with all of their chips. It has to be the first bet or a raise, NOT A CALL!

For the other question, when an "all in" is initiated, again by whoever begins it regardless of chip count, that "all in" will count as only one. It won't matter how many others go "all in" with him/her.

Does this answer it sufficiently?

We have 13 players in the POLL now!!! Funny- we unanimously don't like Timothy Busfield's chances- lol!!!

Lucky 13! Cool!

Answers look good to me. Any answer is good. I just wanted to cover them before the show and not after, since it could makes sense to count them several ways.

The answer is good, but that means that there are no longer four guaranteed all ins and technically there could be none. So I am going to drop my guess to 5.

I was thinking about how it went last week. There were alot of "all ins" and they all fell within my definition above. The only person I remember going out on a call was Emily Proctor.

It's a loose-passive table, very easy table to make money on.
