Merry Christmas everyone!
Hope you're enjoying the festive holidays. I'm still in my elf outfit, but that's another story.
Anyway, I'm here to remind you that we have a special series of live shows this Chrimbo covering all the big UKOPS events.
So, make a note of this- it might well be the life-saver you've been looking for to get you away from playing charades with the family or having to sit through the Wizard of Oz...again.
TUESDAY 27TH DEC
WEDNESDAY 28TH DEC
THURSDAY 29TH DEC
FRIDAY 30TH DEC
We are live every one fo those nights and, please note, from the NEW TIME of SEVEN O'CLOCK!!!
Yes, five hours of rock-solid pokertainment for 4 nights in a row, culminating in the £50,000 UKOPS Main Event.
it's going to be seasonally epic.
And we're going to be giving seats to the non UKOPS main events all that week on every show too. Yes, we're generous. We know.
This will be the official show thread for all 4 shows, so please post away to ensure your messages are read out during the festive period on Sky Poker TV.
I'll be here for all 4 shows, joined along the way by the likes of Carlo Claus, Santa Kendall and Tinsell Harris with special guests including Michelle 'Merry Gentlemen' Orpe and Jen 'Mince Pie' Mason.
Have a great Christmas and we'll see you at 7 on Tuesday!

Sky Poker TV- this Christmas.
As Del Boy will no doubt say in the traditional Only Fools Xmas Day repeat: "You know it makes sense, Rodders!"
Have A Brilliant Xmas and Thank you for some Brilliant TV in 2011
Much Appreciated!
In the words of Hughie Green
"I mean that, most sincerely!"
OK, I'm in the studio gallery, getting this thread up-to-date and looking at the running order for tonight.
Remember- we're on air at SEVEN this evening.
Joinng me are Carlo and special guest David Tuchman, who regular viewers will remember from many a Sky Poker show and in particularly as one of the judges of Total Player.
Get your questions in on this thread please.
Plus- any amusing Xmas stories from this year?
How did you spend yours? What's the worst present you got?
Get 'em in!
And finally- we're doing a special Orford's Disastermind tonight where the winner will get a free seat into tomorrow night's 6K Main Event Doublestack- worth £22!
All you have to do is answer as many general knowledge questions in 30 seconds on the phone- email us your name, player alias and tel. no. and we'll do the rest tonight.
Good luck and look forward to hearing from you throughout the show tonight.
We're on till midnight- see you at 7!
just a couple of questions lol
1st, i have been watching your cash quest with interest as i have just started playing cash myself, I was a bit disturbed that you wasn't playing you own money even though you probably earn more in a week than i do in a month lol and yes being staked brings its own pressures i know.
2nd I have also took a interest in the survivor series to see if anyone else could do it, I see coolmark did it and congratulations to him, you posted on his thread that you thought he was the 1st player to do this, not sure if you ment during your promotion or ever, but i did it on the 6th of August, so my real question is, can i have a free seat at the main event or at least a side avent on the same night, after all it is Christmas,
Hope you all had a great Christmas.
I'm playing the £6k tonight and feeling on top form so you could do alot worse than following my progress and even if I bust out early there'll be a great bad beat story to tell!
See you on the final table!
I'd expect it from other channels!
But it's the first time an 865 presenter has been talking PANTS!
Except, Orford Obviously!
ps note to self xmas present entry into one of ukops
Looking forward to a great show as usual.
Best xmas present was a trip to Ireland with my wife where i have just got back from and where we had a fantastic time seeing the sites of the great country and also visiting on one occasion a very busy market where my wife bought herself a photocopied picture of none other than Sky Pokers very own Carlo Citrone himself from a big Irish guy called Ronnie who was selling them out of a suitcase at the entrance
All the best for the new year guys.
Martin.
