It's Chrissssssstmaaasssssssss!


 


Yes, it's the last live show before the big day and we are in full festive mode.

 

Hosting will be Rudolph Orford and Santa Rutter. And hideous Christmas jumpers have been promised by the producers. You have no choice! Don't worry, neither have we!

 

The centre pieces of our Christmas extravaganza will be...


The 20K SuperRoller 


AND for one night only a special...


Christmas Cracker tournament


Here's the details of that...


Start time – 9pm


Buy in – Password Only, then £5.50. Password will be released on the show from 7pm so watch out for that.


We'll have some special players in this tournament – Tikay and newgirl Laura Cornelius will be playing from home- and we'll have Skype/phone calls with them. Also playing will be Sky Santa, Sky Rudolph and Sky Elf will be back.


All these 5 players will have £50 cash bounty on their heads. 

 

Good eh? So, bearing all that in mind, here's the full schedule for the show as it stands:

 

7pm – 8pm

Conclusion to the Sky Sports Bounty Hunter from Thursday night.

8pm – 9pm

Live coverage of the £20,000 Super Roller- send in hyour hand requests.

9pm – 11pm

Live coverage from the Christmas Cracker MTT– Skype/phone calls from Tikay and Laura

11pm – Midnight

Live coverage of either the Super Roller or the Christmas Cracker- we'll decide on the night.

 

So, you can start early if you like- get all your banter, questions, hand requests etc. to us either on this thread, via email skyopen@bskyb.com or via Twitter #skypoker

 

We've got loads of free seats for the Christmas Eve 5K Turbo Open (worth £11) to hand out and they'll go to the best entries for the following two things:

 

1) Give a Sky Poker spin to a famous Christmas hit song or carol

You can change the words to the title of a song or change the lyrics- but please don't do the whole song though- just a few lines please! That's all I'll have time to read out!

 

Here's a couple off the top of my head:

 

Does Tikay Know It's Christmas Time At All?

 

Rudolf the Redmond Reindeer

 

And a quick nod to John Lennon's classic re- my own poker performance this year...

 

"So this is Christmas. And what have I done? Another losing year over. A new one just begun..."

 

2) Your captions to this little beauty...



 

Here's mine- 

 

Nice to see Tikay has finally made the effort this Christmas and decorated his Zimmer frame.

 

Over to you!

Have a crack at both and increase your chances of landing a free seat. Looking forward to your entries and see you Sunday night at 7pm!

    Santa Rutter sounds very wrong...

    A £5.50 buy-in, 20k guarantee? With a bounty on Tikay's head? If this isn't a wind-up, I'm all in, baby!

    Caption:

    "Not so evil now are you Pingu!"

    Christmas song:

    Jingle tells , Jingle tells
    Give your hand away
    Oh what fun it is to raise
    When i know what cards you play.

    Caption contest, Tikay takes Matt Bates for his first skating lesson.

    for the song to the tune of frosty the snowman, Tikay the snowman was a jolly happy soul, with a mug of coffee and a button steal with 72 the colour of coal.  There must of been some magic in that burgandy jacket they found for when they placed it on his shoulders he began to dance around.

    song is- i wish it could be christmas everyday by wizzard

    When the Orford starts the show
    Well you just might like to know
    He's put a great big smile, on old Tikay's face
    And if you win the main event
    Quickly turn on your tv set
    Tune to channel 861
    You know your sweet winning hands are on their way

    Well I wish it could be Christmas, every day
    When the clock starts ticking and the blinds begin to play
    Oh, I wish it could be Christmas, every day
    Let the beats run out for Christmas



    MERRY CHRISTMAS PEEPS

    I don't know whether you're being cheeky, Brian or if you're genuinely confused, but just to cover the latter option: the £20K SuperRoller and the £5.50 Christmas Cracker tournament are two seperate things!!!!

    Rich, of course I am not confused. I don't misunderstand simple things like a couple of Primary Three level paragraphs! I went to school, you know? And I hardly missed any days. I have my English Higher and I graduated university - with honours, I should add. How dare you suggest I could be wrong. What, just because you're the presenter you have to be correct? I don't think so. It doesn't work like that, I'm afraid!

    Oh, wait...

    Right, yeah. I see.

    My bad.
