    Thank god for the mute button. Did Orford choose the music? Some hands are shown twice. Is this deliberate or a fault?

    Hi Alan,

    If some hands are being shown twice, that's a glitch. I'll inform the Glitch Department Manager.
     
    Music? Well it's so subjective, but luckily, as you say, we all have the option of the Mute Button, & can play our own music whilst watching if we so wish. Eminem ftw.
     
    Due to Royalty costs & the PRS thing, non-commercial in-house generic music is used. No choice really, otherwise the costs would make the whole thing untenable.

    AGAIN AGAIN !!!

    Taken from the brilliant "every don has its day" thread posted this morning

    In Response to why does it demand a headline:
    An update Not even sure if people still read this, but update time anyways lol.  I've decided to start increasing my volume again, but 100% avoiding cash like the plague

    Only slightly less boring than watching paint dry, which incidently is what I am waiting for, as I am in the process of decorating the bathroom.

    I find the music preferable to that Fowler woman pretending to be / being a complete airhead though.

    FWIW i didnt realise it was being streamed live until loads of tv regs sat at the tables but obvi didnt mind anyway cos i know if i sit at those tables it could be on tv Think its a great idea and will get alot more players onto the tables Was a bit cruel keep showing q9 v j10 3-4 times though lol I had only just been reading thedons diary this morning and felt a bit guilty cos he seems a nice guy also he said in his diary he was never playing cash again !

    Hi Maxally

    Unfortunately this is a feature of the automation, if there are no new hands available then the system will select a previous hand that has been played out until a new hand becomes available.

    All tracks were taken from my forthcoming album "Now That's What I Call Generic Music Which Doesn't Cost Huge Amounts of Money to Play- Volume 17".

    Good idea! Sometimes it is handy to catch up on some repeat shows, but more live action is always welcome :o) It's interesting to see some of the run of the mill hands and how they are played, rather than just the highlights. Keep up the good work! By the way off the subject.....is Sky Poker going to be available on Android devices in the near future? :op

    I actually think this is the perfect way to help generate action for SnG's. Have TV table available at all levels and it would be great to watch one from beginning to end. By its nature it generates action so should be entertaining.

    The hands were being shown in real time, but on a 5 minute delay so there must've been hands available to show which weren't shown?

    If it really was a case of no hands being available then you can just increase the delay to 10/15 minutes to ensure new hands are always available? 

    Apart from hands being repeated I thought it worked well. 

    I can't get over people complaining about the music, put the radio on or something !!!

    This - but it is a good idea that would also work well for a start to finish SNG as stated in an earlier post

    Good idea. It was on last night in the early hours and as i was playing at the time and against some of the players it was showing it was pretty fascinating
