This was in my inbox today. It's quite a strange feeling to receive corporate blurb which includes references to me. For the avoidance of doubt, I have a working relationship with Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062). You may not have known that.......;)

Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Launches Two New TV Shows

First TV poker show dedicated to cash play to debut tonight

 

LONDON, UK—May 27, 2008—Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062), the first multiplatform poker room, is launching two new TV shows, STACKED UP and Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) UNLIMITED. Both shows continue Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062)’s tradition of delivering entertaining and educational poker programming to UK poker fans.

 

STACKED UP focuses on the art of playing cash poker and will introduce the stars of the game to the nation. STACKED UP is a weekly show that will see teams of three players compete in online cash poker games, with all the action being screened on Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Channel 846. Teams will be made up of expert poker players, Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) analysts as well as novice players. Teams win in STACKED UP by increasing their bankroll by a larger percentage than the other teams, so even teams with the smallest of bankrolls will be able to compete and win.

 

“As the first TV show focused entirely on cash games STACKED UP will be a revolution in TV poker programming,” said Pete Ward, Head of Channels for Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) & Sky Bingo. “STACKED UP is the just the latest show to launch on Channel 846 as we constantly look to bring exciting, entertaining and educational content to the community of Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) players.”

 

STACKED UP will be a fast paced show split into two 50 minute sessions. The first shows will be hosted by Tony ‘Tikay’ Kendall and Norman Pace but the other familiar faces from Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) will also host the show in the future.

Look, I said "look away NOW", & people are reading this.....

its' ok, I am sure there is a cheque in the post made payable to me blonde Poker.


Good luck with the new show!

ie 'Don't worry viewers - it's not him on every week.'

Err, showS. Norman I & I are doing both these Shows tonight. But thank you.

The "Stacked Up" you will see tonight was recorded last week, and tonight we will record next week's edition. The show we record tonight will have Jon Young, Rick Dacey & Dave Bland as the "Team" playing. So a bit of pressure on the Poker Mag Editors! The Show you see tonight (recorded last week) has Scott Robinson of Five (or was it Blue?), who is in fact quite a decent player, & two of his mates.

Straight after we have finished recording Edition 2 of Stacked up, & Edition 1 has aired at 8pm tonight, Norman & I are tonight's hosts for a new, 2 hour Live Chat Show, "Sky (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Poker (http://www.skypoker.com/poker/sky_lobby?aff=1062) Unlimited", which will be on from 10pm until Midnight.

After that, I will mainly be sleeping.

There speaks a man, who, worryingly, can read between the lines.

No Blonde team appearing then?? A mistake surely?

is stacked up gonna be shown on the internet?

just watch the sky poker cash tables ;)

Err - I don't know - good question! I will ask.

Bear with me please.

Yup - I asked SWMBO (She Who Must Be Obeyed) & she says it will be streamed Live on the Internet, exactly as "The Open" is. It starts at 8pm.

cool, thx, will check it out tonight

Not exaxctly. For Legal reasons, we cannot show Cash Table Action "Live", So the Show you see (we hope....) tonight was recorded a week ago. The Show we record tonight airs next Tuesday.

But "Sky Poker Unlimited", tonight's 2 hour Chat Show, at 10pm, will be Live.

Good luck guys, will hopefully be watching tonight

Break a leg and all that :)

This is what I have been waiting for, a real reason to watch each week, rather than just when I have nothing better to do.
