Want entry into the "Invite Only" Santa Sack Tourney?

Thought you might!

Heres the deal, but bear with me, it's a bit convoluted.

Tonight, there is a £5,500 Guaranteed Bounty Hunter at 8pm.

Highlights, & your "Hand Requests" from Tonight's Tourney, will be recorded in a Show that Lisa & I will record this Friday, the "Sky Poker Xmas Special".

And in that Show, Producer Chris has given us a bunch of Invites to dish out for those who send in Hand Requests that we show.

The Show will air on Christmas Day, & the ONLY WAY you wil know if youi have won an Invite to the exclusing, Invite Only, Santa Sack Tourney to be played on December 27th is to WATCH THE SHOW ON CHRISTMAS DAY.

All clear?

Any questions, just ask.

Good Luck.

    I'm in it - courtesy of the omaha freeroll - not bad saw about ten flops in 80 mins to finish in the top 5!

    I may see a few more this evening and if any are good you will know!

    Sorry Tikay, I didn't stay in the tourney long enough to get a hand worthy of being replayed, unless you count the terrible call I made to lose almost all of my stack! durrrr Is this the only time you'll be doing something like this?

    nudge nudge, wink wink! Say no more! as the saying goes!

    very true rattious,i feel i was very unlucky,but that is poker i guess,as tough as it is to take.
    i am certain that hand will be shown as it was the last 1 of the tournament and also bcoz of how lucky it was.
    frustrating but what can you do.....
    what is next for rattious then tournament wise?
    really want to get in the santa sack tourny and was annoyed i missed out on TKO comp thats goin on.

    Hi Ninipoooooo,

    Congrats, very well done.

    Why not send an e-Mail into the Producer of the Show we are recording on Friday for Transmission on Xmas Day? Given that you did so well, he may well consider showing some of your hands.

    The addy is
    skyopen@bskyb.com

    Mark it for the attention of Mr Chris Cohen, Producer Chappie Person.

    Reading about all these competitions and big tourneys is no fun for people (like me) who work shifts that mean they cannot play in the evening. It would be nice to see the odd special every now and then for afternoon/daytime players.

    Well "unlucky" is relative - every single Poker Tourney ever played involves good & bad luck at different stages of the Tourney. Best not to get fixated on "bad luck" imo, rather, you finished 2nd for a shed-load of money!

    What to put in the e-mail? Just reflect your Post on this Thread - I got 2nd, I woulda won but for da de da, da de da, can you show my hand please?".

    Just do it - you might get quite a surprise. Trust me. ;)

    cheers tikay, i must admit,i did get some luck in the tourny.
    i have emailed chris the producer man and have asked if it would be possible to show a few ov my hands and especially if he can show the last hand ov the tourny at some point.
    do i need to wait for a reply or jus wait til xmas and see if im on?
    also tikay,would it be possible to get an invite into the santas sack tourny as i was so unluky o nthe last hand and ended up finishing 2nd and not winning the tourny?
    i would love to join your team in the TKO aswel but i heard it was far to late,so i guess i will just have to wait til next time you 2 lock horns.
    cheers tikay,it would make my xmas if i got an invite to the santas sack tourny.

    I'm sure he will contact you, one way or the other.

    In case of doubt, personally, I CANNOT award any of the prizes in this Show - only Chris Cohen, the Producer can.

    I've no idea Loony - those were the exact words he used in his note to me. I reckon there may be 6 or 8, but that's just a guess.
