Hi Anna and Tikay Loving the show Can you give a big shout out to Diamond81 (TEAM DIAMOND CAPTAIN) to say congrats for getting engaged to the lovely Michelle whilst on holiday in Dubai. From all of the TEAM DIAMOND members
For this hour's comp you need to guess how many runners the £250 Guaranteed @9:05pm will get by the end of late reg..... Your entries must be in before 9:15pm and entry is via email only - skyopen@bskyb.com
well LFB IS DEAD first of all, but thank u guys and girls.... just for u tikay just i did A380 business class (was lucky enough too), which is smaller then the standard businees class with emirates to Dubai but a very larger and amazing plane
Hi ANNA, sorry tikay and my so-called husband to be are boring u with planes, just imagine what i went through when boarding!!!!!!! im not joking but i had the history of the A380 for 40mins!!!! David (diamond81) is also a plane buff.... and is currently leaning to fly but worste of all is making a A380 model that he actully flies!!!!!!
Iwent to see the A380 the other day! Never saw a single plane but I ended up in Newton Abbott! saw plenty of Anna's ten year old horses there though! Is Tikays tie not Shocking Purple? Was it a gift from a well known chocolate company and does he play the drums like Phil Collins?
just heard the name luke schwartz mentioned, i think this guys a legend but can understand why tikay wouldnt want him back on the show, last time luke was on the show he didnt seem to understand that everyone cant play the game to his level!!!
Hi Anna and Tikay Just heard the place where I'm from mentioned - ALNWICK Just to let Tikay know, its pronounced Annik Enjoying the show as ever Jonny Posted by jonnyrkd
Morning Jonny, & welcome to the Sky Poker Community.
"Annik" - excellent, thank you, I never knew that.
You are a very lucky man if you hail from Alnwick, it looks a stunningly beautiful place.
I love that section of the West Coast main Line, perhaps amongst my three favourite sections of the UK railway system, & from time to time, I jump a train from London to Edinburgh, stay overnight, & return, just for the sheer pleasaure of those wonderful views of the coastline, Berwick Upon Tweed, Durham Castle, etc.
These days it is the home of the world-famous "Barter Books".
Splendid stuff, there are so many lovely spots in the UK, we are blessed to live here. I took such things for granted for most of my life, but I'm on catch up now.
good evening both looking forward to a great night of poker and comedy entertainment. tikay, it is pronounced as pennycook. no trick to it like the edinburgh street which is pronounced wrongly by all the tourists and is pronounced as coeburn but spelt cockburn! onwards and upwards :-))) Posted by Gollygosh
Ahh, thank you Miss Gosh. I learn something new every day.
We DO have to be so careful with names, as some players like to have iffy aliases, which are not acceptable or desirable for the TV Show, & we had already had one dodgy one, so I was just being a little over careful.
Love these peculiar place names. There is a little tinsy-winsy town in West Yorkshire, up on the moors near Huddersfield, called Linthwaite. I was doing some work there once to help construct an underground Service Reservoir for YWB, & I got lost. There was no Sat-Nav in those days....
I knew I was within a mile or two of the village, but I could not find it, despite driving for ages, so I stopped to ask a local, looked like a farmer to me.
"Excuse me, How do I find Linthwaite please?"
"Tha wha?"
"Pardon?"
"Tha wha lad?"
"Linthwaite. Where is it?"
"Ahh 'ol lad, tha mean LinWa".
And he was right - obv - Linthwaite is pronounced "Linwa", & it's neighbouring village, Slaithwaite, as "Slawa".
hi all, just heard the name luke schwartz mentioned, i think this guys a legend but can understand why tikay wouldnt want him back on the show, last time luke was on the show he didnt seem to understand that everyone cant play the game to his level!!! Posted by THEROCK573
Hi Rocky.
Well yes, he talks at "Level 5", & the vast majority of our target viewing audience do not really want that, they want & need more basic stuff, but even so, many viewers liked his analysis very much, & there is no doubt he underastands the game to an extraordinarily high level. But it's no good saying "you must do this in that spot", you have to explain why.
I must correct you, however, on "tikay does not want him back on the Show", I never said that! I said, words to the effect, that it was unlikely he would be on the 861 Show again.
A big "thank you" from the Production Team, Anna & myself for all the e-Mails & Tweets we got last night, there were, literally, many hundreds of them, probably the biggest volume we have ever had for a single Show. One or two of them did not even complain about my tie.
Anna, of course, is exceptionally popular, & deservedly so. I do give here a bit of stick, but it's just because we are very good friends, & I love her.*

WHAT HAVE I GOT MYSELF INTO TO???
Michelle
Never saw a single plane but I ended up in Newton Abbott!
saw plenty of Anna's ten year old horses there though!
Is Tikays tie not Shocking Purple?
Was it a gift from a well known chocolate company and does he play the drums like Phil Collins?
I've been told I should wear a paper bag on my head before...
Obviously she thought I was giving off tells, too.
