Hosting will be Rudolph Orford and Santa Rutter. And hideous Christmas jumpers have been promised by the producers. You have no choice! Don't worry, neither have we!
The centre pieces of our Christmas extravaganza will be...

AND for one night only a special...
Christmas Cracker tournament
Here's the details of that...

Buy in – Password Only, then £5.50. Password will be released on the show from 7pm so watch out for that.
We'll have some special players in this tournament – Tikay and newgirl Laura Cornelius will be playing from home- and we'll have Skype/phone calls with them. Also playing will be Sky Santa, Sky Rudolph and Sky Elf will be back.
All these 5 players will have £50 cash bounty on their heads.

We've got loads of free seats for the Christmas Eve 5K Turbo Open (worth £11) to hand out and they'll go to the best entries for the following two things:
1) Give a Sky Poker spin to a famous Christmas hit song or carol
You can change the words to the title of a song or change the lyrics- but please don't do the whole song though- just a few lines please! That's all I'll have time to read out!
Here's a couple off the top of my head:
Does Tikay Know It's Christmas Time At All?
Rudolf the Redmond Reindeer
And a quick nod to John Lennon's classic re- my own poker performance this year...
"So this is Christmas. And what have I done? Another losing year over. A new one just begun..."
2) Your captions to this little beauty...
Here's mine-
Nice to see Tikay has finally made the effort this Christmas and decorated his Zimmer frame.
Over to you!
Have a crack at both and increase your chances of landing a free seat. Looking forward to your entries and see you Sunday night at 7pm!
Comments
A £5.50 buy-in, 20k guarantee? With a bounty on Tikay's head? If this isn't a wind-up, I'm all in, baby!
"Not so evil now are you Pingu!"
Christmas song:
Jingle tells , Jingle tells
Give your hand away
Oh what fun it is to raise
When i know what cards you play.
"Tikay gets pulled by a bird for the first time in years"
" Hey orford, this ice skating lark is easy. Not sure about the instructor you hired for me though, she seems a bit flat footed"
When the Orford starts the show
Well you just might like to know
He's put a great big smile, on old Tikay's face
And if you win the main event
Quickly turn on your tv set
Tune to channel 861
You know your sweet winning hands are on their way
Well I wish it could be Christmas, every day
When the clock starts ticking and the blinds begin to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas, every day
Let the beats run out for Christmas
MERRY CHRISTMAS PEEPS
This could take all day,
I wish this penguin would get out of the way!
Christmas Song:
I saw Anna kissing Santa claus!
Oh, wait...
Right, yeah. I see.
My bad.
But this very next year he's gone running away
Heaven knows im miserable now
PENGUIN- 'WHAT?'
TIKAY- 'I just wanted to say something that would break the ice

It would be an honour if you could join us in @2.20 for £2.20 DEEPSTACK.
I realize you are a very busy man, but any afternoon you have spare, it would be much appreciated.
All the best

It would be an honour to have you join the @2.20 DEEPSTACK.
I have seen you play on 861 and you would bring a lot of class to the tournament.
Plus i have a list of players i would like to play the @2.20 DEEPSTACK,and you are at the top of that list.
All the best
