    Exactly that. A "real" (human!) Dealer is used, as they are "standard cards" (with added technology built-in), not "virtual" cards. She or he has to shuffle them just as they would in a real live B & M poker game.

    Can I please suggest that Dena is the dealer? ;-)

    That's a pretty cool system.

    How is the 'live' game show going to fit into the online poker world at Sky Poker?

    I am not sure it will 'fit' in as such just something new. I think Tikay mentioned in an earlier post about having online qualifiers etc. The first series will be invited guests only. As this is the first time we have produced this type of show we need to have tight control over everything that happens.

    That does look good. I can't remember ever seeing it used before on any poker shows.

    There's huge potential for show ideas, maybe you could a special presenters and analysts show. They all have a game and then discuss their reasoning behind their play.

    Or something like that.
