The blub...............sorry the club!

[boldie]

can he say shite?

I don't know..he did but I can feel a ban coming on...He could have said  "ass goblins, ass kabobs, ass monkeys, black banana, blind eels, boulder, chocolate channel chewie, colon cannonballs, corn eyed butt snake, corn massacre, crapsters
creamy butt nuggets, digested Crayola box, Easter Bunny's present, the fourth teletubby, frightened turtle, hardened fudge nuggets, hell's candy, Indian rug burns, keester cakes, Mississippi mud, monglin cluster shit, mudfat balls, peanut butter poop, potty animals, product of Uranus, sea pickle, sewer serpents, shitsicles, space slug, Super Shit Man, tangy butt nuts, that ain't chocolate puddin'!, tom cruise missiles, toxic turdeys, turd tunnel tasty, yellow submarine, air out the anus, ass sneezing, bust a shit, christen the comfort station, cook some beans, clean one's colon, cut off a load, drop a chalupa, drop ass goblins, drop some friends off at the lake, empty the manure spreader, take a plane crash - no survivors,
talk to a man about a horse, blow mud, booty hole burnout, butt dribblets, butt drool, chocolate explosion, G.I. shits, human expresso machine, Montezuma's revenge, oohs and ahs, screaming mimis, supersonic sewer sauce, boggy crapper, toilet bowl stew, cattle cookies, chimp chunks, cow farts, dog logs, doggy sausage, elk duds, kagatzka, lawn sausage or anal impaction" but he chose to call The Club "shite"..and that is surely against the rules.

Without trying to be biased towards the Club having appeared on it, but will then go on to be biased  .
I think it depends on which show you watch, for example the recent show with Eddie Hearn was in my view a good interview and interesting about how some of the big tv poker tournies are pulled together and the future of the premier League etc. There are other shows where the guests are of no interest (who knows maybe even mine). I also think the show is just trying to be fun and think Dan and Matt pull this off (on the whole)
As for Poker 425/poker week the club isn't trying to compete with this type of show and wish it could be brought back, but guess this is all down to money.

PS welcome to the forum.

 I'm assuming that 'The Club' replaced 'Poker Week'  because of money?

New on here so hi to everyone!
Not a big fan of forums (can bring out the worst in people) but I felt compelled to join so I could express my utter dismay at Sky Poker's 'The Club'!
They have completely misread what the poker community wants in a magazine show, news and reports on the UK scene with player profiles and the odd report from tourneys overseas. Not just a half hour promo for the channel and its comps! typical sky really (you only have to watch Sky Sports News............one long ad for whatever they are showing on their sport channels).
Poker week may not have been the greatest show on TV but it great for the UK pokerheads. Hope it comes back!

Damning evidence for the prosecution.

The two programme are wholy unconnected.

Poker week was sponsored/backed (as I understand it) independently each season by various organisations and produced independently. The Club is a Sky programme through and through - produced and transmitted by Sky.

Nothing to do with 'Sky Bet" then?

Ed,

I dont know what sky bet is I'm afraid. But I was answering your question about the club and poker week. As far as I am aware they have never been connected.

[totalise]

what are these two programs? is poker week where tikay and compo sat in that dingy office talking about poker for 30 min?

[celtic]

or sometimes on the terrace with a pot of tea.

[MILTON]

Sky bet sponsored the show so i would say they are very much linked

Did they? Well it would have been only for that run. Poker Week has also been sponsored by companies such as William Hill if I remember correctly. It changes for each run of the programme depending on who wants to sponsor.

As far as I am aware the programme is still open to sponsorship from interested parties, the fact that they were at one time sponsored by Sky Bet is irrelevant to the future of the programme. Previous sponsorship for one run doesn't tie them to that company after that time.

Why is it so important?

[MILTON]

Well i don't see any other gaming site sponsorship on sky's channels..........i might be wrong about that, just haven't seen any, i believe Ch425 was owned by Will Hill

this man knows his stuff!!
