Want to be on TV? NOW? Playing Poker?

Tikay10

I am standing in for Mother, who is unwell today, so bear with me.

She has been working very hard on a Project which would mean some Cash Tables on Sky Poker were broadcast LIVE, as it happens, non-stop. (No commentary).

Everything is almost sorted, & the LIVE TRIAL is scheduled for 1pm today.

No Guarantees, da de da, but if you want to take a Seat on MASTER CASH TABLE 9 NOW, or, if it fills, get on the waiting list, then, with any luck, & fingers crossed (but NO guarantees, it's a trial) your play will be shown LIVE on Channel 865 from 1pm this afternoon for a few hours.

I'll sit in to help fill it until the other seats fill, then I'll vacate.

Enjoy!

4 seated already, though 2 of us - Sky Santa & myself - will vacate our seats if & when players arrive, & a Waiting List forms.

It's a trial guys, there will be a few glitches, but the only way to trial it is to run it during the day when we know we can fill the Seats.

Apart from playing every hand twice this ain't that bad.

Yep bug clearly fixed now .

I tell you what, I reckon this will be pretty good once it's ironed out, too. Mind you, I could never EVER fold J5hh on a 85x flop with two hearts! Should add an interesting dynamic to the Master Cash tables, this!

That Sky Santa is a right fish...must be Blandy! ☺

Is there any sound on the live thread thingy?

Haha, nah he plays way too tight for me. He folded a button with 89o, so definitely not me!

There will be some background music as far as I understand it too - it's a bit quiet on the live stream, sounds better on the TV version. It'll go down in the list of things to tweak I'd guess.

Just being honest.

I disagree too.

There are loads of repeats of the live shows.

If you enjoy cash poker this will be worth watching.

Darntootin

Yeah, much better than continual repeats.

As with a lot of things, Debs, Sky Poker are trying vey hard to do lots different & innovative things, & be a bit special. Not every arrow hits the double top, but if we throw enough arrows, some will miss completely, & a few will hot the bullseye. We get a lot of serial moaners, but, you know, better to try & fail, than to fail to try.

Thanks for helping with today's trial, which, all things considered, went well. Bit of a shame that Mother, who's baby this is, is off sick, but them's the breaks.

As you can see from the thread, "each to their own", we cannot please everyone, but we'll at least try! Good to see all the views expressed with good grace, too.
