    I guess there are plenty of cash games around London and he has no need to travel abroad anyway.  Not sure about the green hair though, that may start a few fights up here in Scotland, lol.

    So does this mean each live show is going to be broken down into sections of different shows or have I read that wrong ?

    Yes 5 hours live broken up into 1 hour segments- 1 hour Master Cash, 1 hour Sky Poker School etc

    I am informed that Gary has had three Tourney cashes in the last 12 months, at DTD, Luton, & in an EPT sidey.

    The show on the 14th February should be good too. As I was just watching a repeat of last Thursday show I heard Mr Kendall refer to me as a 'Dragon' so Orford and Kendall will spend Valentine's together.

    They might also be a little Valentine theme that evening.......... open to suggestions!

    The changes sound great, I'm delighted to see a big increase in the amount of live airtime. Good luck!

    Will it be in HD? Sky Poker is about the only thing I ever watch that's not in HD these days.

    The virtual set wont be making a return as those facilities are not available at Sky (we used to be based at another campus) plus its very dated. The new sets are inline with Sky Sports and Sky News.

    The main thing is the actual programming and the content from the channel. This will see a massive improvement and 'should' please everyone

    Hmmm, it's reminding me of something but I can't quite put my finger on it...

    With an audience made up of poker players I fail to see how anyone could not be pleased...............

    We will devote the last show of the live shows to show the highlights of the tournaments that night. Gives you plenty of time to get your hand request in too

    to be honest 1 hour out of 5 for live tournie isn't very much and won't allow time for many hands to be shown. can't see the point in having live show if there are only a few live hands being shown - and yes i do include mastercash. i can understand filling up the first couple of hours with cash and chat - early levels of most tournies aren't exactly exciting; but surely the shows are meant to be about analysing the live play and not just selected big hands.
    not sure where you are going with this program. maybe a lot more detail would be advisable to help explain the changes.

    Nobody ever likes change but I suggest you tune in during February and see what you think then

    Thanks

    have never had any problem with change; SPT schedual, Top of the Pots etc. all excellent changes.
    i will watch the new programs and make my mind up. however a few more details would not go amiss.
    pleeeeeeeez!!
