The Blind Levels in tonight's £12,500 Guaranteed Bounty Hunter are now TEN minutes, NOT seven, as previously advertised.

The £10,000 Guarantee has, as you already know, been increased by 25% (this week only)  to £12,500.

The Starting stacks will be 3,000.

And it starts at....... EIGHT PM!

There's more, too.....

    Tonight's Live Show on Channel 865 will start at EIGHT PM, & not Nine pm as previously.

    All Live Shows will henceforth begin at 8pm.

    So, more Show, more time, & more money tonight.

    Which of the 8pm main tournaments are going to be shown on TV in future.  There seems to be an awful lot of repeats around at the moment and I like to watch whilst ironing (sad I know).

    That's quite awkward to answer, tbh, as the new scheduling has not been formally announced yet.

    For this week, at the very least, ( & a few more weeks I think) tonight's, Saturday's, & Sundays will be show the Tourneys at least in part. Tonight will be a "normal" Show, except 4 hours instead of 3, & will follow tonight's £12,500 BH, plus some other suff which I'll Post about on the Show Thread later.

    This Saturday & Sunday, the Show will be as previous, except 4 hours.

    I'm not sure when the new Scheduling comes into effect, but when it does, there will be some quite different stuff. It will include a Cash-Only night, & a brand new Show which is being worked on as we speak.

    There is at least one new Show every day at present, either Live or Recorded, afaik. We recorded 3 or 4 "Pre-Records" yesterday, & these will roll-out on 865 during next week. This will be ongoing, every week.

    Repeats? Yeah, get your drift - but TV Content is horrendously expensive to Produce, so it's a case of balancing cost-effectiveness, value, & demand.

    It's really on a need to know basis.

    Do you really need to know?

    Very complex this.

    The Wardrobe Mistress decides what we wear, as it needs to blend with what the Presenter wears, & not "key" with the set.

    But I have made the Producer aware of the "Burgundy Thread", & he has no objections. So, it's up to the Wardrobe Mistress now.

    There may be some other complications too, as we have a new Presenter & Analyst on tonight. All very hush-hush, say no more.

    Great minds Baz!

    Richard can give out the advice I reckon as he is on fire! ;) TK presenting would be good, I know he can do it.

    "but TV Content is horrendously expensive to Produce, so it's a case of balancing cost-effectiveness, value, & demand"

    the constant repeats are coma-inducing and  a mare,why not at least start showing repeats from the opening days of sky poker(i assume they keep the tapes), at least they would feel fresh and would also highlight the advancement in play since then,and kara would be back on the screen too ;)
