Q2 I did like the Team Sky thing where through the league points system you could qualify for an end of month (or quarterly?) tournament where you could win a Team Sky package that included entry to a GUKPT (or other big buy in live event) seat. I think Sky also flirted with satellites into GUKPT and would welcome any return of satellites into high buy in live events.
that's a great relief, i thought freddie mercury was dead.
Any chance of seeing you at an SPT? get your co-presenter to tell you and the audience when the next events are, and how you can qualify...
2. and cant remember the name of it but did u not have to play for a team and sky had a team that was good fun also
if i could list more i would as i like most of the promotions
Good luck to Jannis in his new role. Question? Is Jannis any relation to (Zacharry Quinto, the new Mr Spock from Star Trek) I think the likeness is uncanny.
When are the Viva Las Vegas satelites starting? Is there a Viva Las Vegas this year?
Great show.

Q2 i didn't know much about the promotions until this year but i could say my favourite which will never return for me is the 10k newbie as i'm not new.
How can u mention crossroads without the almighty Benny and his hats?
Quick question for Tikay. As he knows I have been dabbling with omaha, with mixed results. I have been told that pre-flop hands in omaha are alot closer, yet still often see betting wars pre. Is this purely a mind game, or is there much point to 3 or 4 bets pre?
By the way earlier you mentioned the rule of 4, but during the analysis used a rule of 2. Isnt it 4x after the flop, and 2x after the turn when guestimating odds?

Q2 - Which PREVIOUS Sky Poker Promotion did you most enjoy, & would like to see repeated?
Q1: The new c4p system that rewards more play then before.
Q2: I have just seen it is back THE FREEROLL FESTIVAL that will run from 28th feb - 6th March, this was great before and great to see added again.
have a great show.
hi tikay, freddie,
quick...
1. Cash4Points is probably my favourite promo as, to be honest, it's the one that gives me the most... by I reserve a final answer to this until the next golden ticket draw, which will be my favourite if I bink the win
2. Cash Champ was enjoyable and, probably, the promo I'd like to see repeated at some point.
That said, it truly taught me why people refer to poker as 'grinding' and gave me far greater respect for those that play this game for a living. Pro poker player always seemed like a dream life to aspire to, but even after the (still limited) number of hands and hours I played in CashChamp I can safely say I wouldn't want to do that day-in, day-out... even if I did make the monumental improvements to my game that would make it a viable option!!
This is a great question for generating some free market research for the site as well... good work. Love the new ideas though, as much as some of the old promos were great, keep things fresh!
Enjoying the show tonight, kept me sane while I was sat doing work (booo) but now the work laptop has died I can relax with a few hands of micro cash poker (hooray!)

None of the current promotions really draw me in to be honest. I think the best 'promotion' is C4P but as all sites offer some form of rakeback I don't really include it as a promo. Golden Tickets has encouraged me to get 50 points each day for a week but I'll decide how much I like that promo when the winners get announced
Q2 - Which PREVIOUS Sky Poker Promotion did you most enjoy, & would like to see repeated?
Definitely has to be the whole TSP/league system for me. At the time it ran, I didn't play as much as I do now, nor was I as successful at it as I am now but I'd love to see that back and have the chance to play some big live MTTs and represent Sky. Great promotion.
P.S. Bring back phone in quizzes live on the show, they were great fun!
Got a couple of questions just as a 'get to know you' if that's alright.
1) What's your best/most memorable poker moment? A big MTT win? Playing in a really big live MTT? Meeting a famous pro?
2) What football team do you support? If that's not your game of choice, what's your favourite sport?
3) Finally... do you like trains and ducks?
My favourite sky promotion (as a relative newcomer) would be the freerolls, as I have a tiny BR most of the time. Also the fact that by joining in the show you get a chance to a few free entries is great, and helps get people involved.
If it doesnt already exist, would be nice to have a list somewhere of the presenter / analyst's sky ids, so we can know when we are playing them.. Maybe even make their bounties higher???

1. Got to agree with Solak on Viva Las Vegas.
2. the leagues that J. Hartigan ran, such as the Omahartigan league, on Tuesdays. Bring em back.
A duck is a bird isn't it?
So a cormorant could be both surely?
Sounds like a duck to me
quick info, assuming tikay is referring to the s name, s***s are not same as cormorants. cormorants are sea birds,
the others usually inland and different birds.
