    Hi Both

    Sorry to see this is the last live show tonight.  

    When I started watching 865, loved the 3D effect table used for the hand analysis.

    Many great presenters over the years.

    Have enjoyed submitting comments, trying to be witty, and close to but not over the mark ( well, sometimes )

    I have to add to the other comments about making and meeting friends on here and SPT's - what an amazing hobby 861 made of poker.

    I'm sure we will all meet again.

    And finally - I have to agree with Rainman about your glasses Anna.  You did have a lovely pair.

    Regards

    Pen Fifteen

    Makes me sad that this will end. Thanks for everyone who helped get me more into poker and also better at the game.

    I got into poker after discovering sky ch865,
    the original format in the old studio with big screen cards,
    and analysis of a live online skypoker Main event.

    Still waiting on the commission from the 865 mini-series,
    started after a "film tag line" caption contest I submitted.
    Tikay & Orford "I am your father" 
    How many episodes did that spawn?

    ( although I would settle for a free Roller entry )

    Long live the Skypoker LegEnds who are "Ant & D!ck"

    I won't see skypoker again as I don't have, (-evSkysports.

    End of an era, gl to all involved in channel 861.

    Best wishes at the end of an era. I've been about since the start (like TK) when there were 3D graphics, and it is Sky Poker that properly got me into poker after a bit of dabbling. I've had enourmous fun and will continue to do so, as hopefully I've improved a bit at the tables. Lots of memories, particularly the banter between Anna and TK, or Orford and Tikay. So thankyou for all the coverage and tips along the way.

    My favourite memory comes from late on a Sunday night when James Hartigan and Orford decided to cover a hand by "rapping" the commentary to one of the funkier bits of backing music. It could only happen at the end of a 5 hour show, and for me sums up some of the fun 861 has provided over the years.

    Thankyou to all of those involved in 861 (or 865) on and off the camera. It's been a blast.

    Hi Tikay and Anna...

    I'd just like to say a big thank you to yourselves and everybody else who has contributed to the show for the past few years entertainment. Like many others, I stumbled across Sky Poker when skipping through channels back in 2009.... 6 years later I'm still learning a fantastic new hobby, and now have many many new good friends spread all over the country. 

    Thank you Sky Poker.

    Hi anna and tk, i will miss the live shows.  But i must admit i always enjoyed the old format when it was on seven nights a week.  Thats when i learnt my game.  It was like being at school everyday with coaching.  I will miss you all good luck for the future.  We will all be shedding a few tears when the credits come up. goodbye tina

    Hey guys,

    Been watching since 7 as and when I can while playing live.

    Thanks to all the help, advice and support that the everyone at Sky and all of the viewers have given me in the last few years.

    Looking at all of the old memories, you can be confident that you created a show that was deserving of a far wider exposure.

    Getting hard to focus on this live tournie now! 

    See you all soon on Sky Sports 4.

    Ryan x

    Hi

    Thank you for giving me one of the very best experiences of my life when I went to Vegas with Sky Poker in 2008. It was an absolute honour to be looked after by Mr Kendall and spend 2 weeks with people that I will always remember. It was Sky Poker at it's very best.  

    My best wishes to all the staff, front and back, I am sure that you will be valued by the new owners. 

    Take care people

    Mike and Kelly
