Thursday night live and it’s me and Reds who’ll be raring to go from 7 with final table coverage of last thursday's thrilling SPT Leaderboard final!

Also on the show win free entry into next tuesday's 6K Open with our ‘Did you knows...’

For instance... Did you know we call pocket kings ‘cowboys’ because ...???’ 

No idea on that one myself but thanks to a day at Wimbledon tennis club yesterday I now know the score of ‘love’ comes from the french word for egg ‘l’oeuf’ - because a zero looks like an egg!? 

You’re welcome...

Any top trivia you have up your sleeve poker related or otherwise let’s have it via email to skyopen@bskyb.com or posted below and the most impressive will win tonights competition! 

Elsewhere on the show we’d love to analyse your play in the poker clinic so email a hand ID from a tv table or post below and watch live from 8

We’ll have live tournament and cash action at 9, Top Of The Pots at 10 and coverage of our main event the 12K Bounty Hunter at 11.

GL on the tables!  See you from 7

Sarah xx

    I bet most of the "facts" you'll get will be misconceptions - even the "Love" one in the original post is only one of a number of theories, none of which seem to have much evidence supporting them!

    alreeeeeeeeet! sarah & redmond, hope you both have a canny good show.

    i don't really have any good "did you knows..." but did you know after a night on the lash with 7 of your mates, hardly any of your neighbours will appreciate a quality rendition of singing/shouting the song "3 lions" at 4 in the morning!!! hahaha

    i've just bought into the main & mini tonight, gonna have another crack at taking down the jackpot! Has redmond got any advice for people like me (i hope i'm not the only one haha), who can make money no problem on 9 & 10 seater tournaments but i always struggle on 6 seater tournaments.

    any advice/help would be very much appreciated.

    have a great show tonight!! Also, it will be a lot easier on the eyes for your veiwers tonight because we wont have to adjust our TV's to suit Mr. Tanfastic's (Mr. Carlo Citrone!!) orange appeal! hahaha j/k.

       Have a Great Show Sarah & Redmond, 

      Did You Know That....

       If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.

       If you Passed Wind consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is
    produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.

       A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to
    death. 

       The male pray mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male’s head off.
