Skypoker players, TV Analsysts and the show
Just an idea i had and think it would be a great idea for the show.
What if Sky used well known successful players as analsysts on the show, players like TommyD, Mattbates, DivsDreams, Style, RosieDogg. These are just a few examples of the top of my head.
It would be great sky using players like these and a large % of the audience would be able to relate to these players having seen their screen names many times when playing cash/ mtt hands.
Sky could pay them the going rate for being an analyst, and it isa win win situation.
It would be great branding for the site in my opinion in having some of the best players on Sky featured amongst the live shows.

Said this to Tommy not so long ago. He's very well versed in the game and fairly popular around these parts. He lives in London and isn't going to Vegas for the WSOP, so the best thing about him is that he's available. lol
Yeah, it would be good if regular players were on a little more frequently. Sam Bayliss was on a little while ago, during one of the UKOPS. I think he was the last guest that made their name on the site, though I may be mistaken.
Trouble is that a fair few of the regs that have appeared on the show have frozen a bit in front of the cameras, quite understandably. I guess that's one of the reasons why it's an infrequent occurrence nowadays. You'd imagine that the only people with much chance are folks like Tommy that are well known to the TV channel team, who have experience with these things and haven't frozen in the past.
I think getting sky regs on the show is good, I enjoyed it and would do it again. I have also enjoyed the top UK players coming on the show.
I know feel like the only reason the masses want me on the show is for my looks rather than my poker advise!
