In the twilight of 2011, prepare yourselves for the biggest event in Sky Poker history...
The UKOPS £50,000 GTD!
It's the mother of all main events and you can still satellite in to live the dream tonight. Check the lobby for the latest.
I'll be on air from 7, note the new time- SEVEN PM, once again for the final and most important stage of my 20 hours of poker broadcasting this week and we've wheeled out the big guns tonight (in Tikay's case, literallly wheeled out)...
Tikay and Jen Mason!
So that's your expert poker analysis taken care of then. :-)
Meanwhile, we need your input. So, hand requests, banter, questions, shout-outs and, like last night, we want to...

Have you satellited in to the main event tonight? Would you like some of you hands shown and then have a chat with us live on the air? If so, we'd love to hear from you. We had loads of you on last night and we want even more this evening.
So email your name, player alias and tel.no to skyopen@bskyb.com and we'll do the rest.
Finally- as the year draws to a close, let's get your reflections on your poker year: the highlights, the lowlights. Who was Sky Poker player of the year in your opinion and why? What was your personal big achievement in poker in 2011?
And what are your New Year's Poker Resolutions?
A packed show then and, at the heart of it, the biggest event ever on Sky Poker. What's not to like?
Good evening again mate. I'm with you on the last leg of a 20 hour poker marathon. I've enjoyed every minute of the shows and the series has been great. I hope the sat structure for the next one will be over a longer period, but, I can't complain as its been a resounding success. I am in the Super Sat at 6pm to qualify for the Main Event, so if I make it through that then I'll message in for you to follow me. Would be a great start to 2012 to win the Main event of UKOPS and I'll be doing my best to be there. I'm not familiar with Jen Mason, but if you have saved her up for the final then she must be a phenomenal guest. My question for her would be, How did you get your first big break in poker? Best wishes. Shaun the villa fan in Bham
Highlight: Probably qualifying for the UKOPS ME in the first place
Lowlight: Tough one - Either crashing and burning in Orford's Disastermind the other night, or being down to just over 60p in my account at one point due to my awful BRM. Luckily won a 60p DYM and ended up not needing to deposit at all
New Years' Resolution: Don't spend more than 5% of my bankroll on a single buy-in.
Great show last nite and looking forward to another, after staking boyfriend (goldnballz) he came in 7th,running into kings with his poc jacks. Still a great nites return of around £730 and im very happy with my new killer heels
hi all have a great show guys,,have been away abit lately but thought i would try qualifying for the ukops main tonight and boommmm got into it by winning the ukops frenzy rebuy for the only a £4.40 entry with only a couple of rebuys so any cash would be great tonight....
I can only say what a great week it has been with ukops and as I have not been able to play and being a great poker fan i have been supporting players / annoying as a spectator on the chat lines. I am aware that there is a few people that moan at Sky poker but I can only say what a great site it is and I have played a few. The ch865 is great too and we all need to mention what a great job Richard has done this week with people like Michelle O, Tikay, Jen.
Tango man has been great too aka carlos with all the Hose me doon shouts.
My tip for player of the year has to be Mariusz80 who i have supported all week and have made some good friends with other people this week. What a great community.
Happy new year too all at sky and keep the good work up. I will be watching again all night tonight. Great Great Great show
Have a good show everybody and I hope you all have a good new year.
The highlights of my poker year are finally getting to grips with playing cash poker.
I joined Sky around this time last year with a view to concentrating on improving my cash game and i've finished the year with a nice profit.
My Sky Poker player of the year would have to be Lolraise. He's always entertaining to watch on the cash tables, technically he's spot on and has had a few decent results in some tournaments.
LjamesL would be a close second.
My new years poker resolution is to improve my MTT game as my record is awful.
i don't play on fridays but was watching you while waiting for my girlfriend to arrive. idly, i thought that i would enter the UKOPS turbo on impulse and won a seat. i have just sent an apology text to explain a change of plan for tonight.

I'm sure the computer couldn't cope with how well Tikay was going in the £20K B/H and gave up! lol

Tough field but I will give it a go.

Please show OMG_U_CALL sick out hand from last night,
hi rich, jen and tikay.

I won the pre-semi-whatever it's called, and got through to the semi, which is genuinely the biggest buy-in tournament I've ever played.
On the bubble I decided I had to do something, and was called by the BB who was already in. He hit his nothing and out I went.
Words don't describe it just now.
