*** Sunday Night Live With Jules & Stapes! ***

Jules_Sowa

Afternoon my little poker elves! 

Our Christmas tree is up! Woo! My house is looking so festive and it smells amazing too! I won the argument with the hubby over having a real or fake tree...and OBVS, real wins EVERY TIME! And obvs, I was never going to lose an argument either Hope you are feeling as festive as I am? 

I'll be joined in the Sky Poker Christmassy studio tonight by Mr Joe Stapleton...believe it or not, Stapes is the last of the Sky Poker analysts that I am yet to meet. So, have they saved the best til last? You tell me? 

Tonight, we are going to be giving away a few free seats into Tuesday's Turbo Open... I am going to try and get as many freebies as poss, but you need to help me out with this one - the more comments the more seats we'll give away! 

I'm sure a few of you saw Stapes commentate on the poker game between Ronaldo vs Nadal a few weeks ago, and also, the nominations for Sports Personality Of The Year have been announced (there's only one winner in my eyes). So with that in mind.... 

Which sports men or sports women would you most like to see battle it out against each other on the poker table?

Get in touch! Get your questions and poker banter in for the show too here:

Good afternoon, hope your evening goes well,I'm sure it will,Mr Stapleton is a very funny chap.

Poker match ups - John " You cannot be serious" McEnroe v Vladimir Klichko, be a chuckle to see how Mr McEnroe reacts to having his aces cracked by rags ��

Arsene Wenger v Jose Mourinho..

I'd like to see a poker match between Dalton Grant and Sir Steve Redgrave.

I think Dalton would do well on the flop, but Steve would come good on the river.

Jeff Stelling v Chris Kamara

Who can keep poker face longest :-)

scouse_red

Alf-Inge Haaland vs Roy Keane a renewing of the hostilities and I think they would both need to be in a Shark Cage from the start no love lost there

Phantom66

Jimmy white v stephen hendry. Give a sporting hero the chance to get one back on their nemesis.

Bradley wiggins v chris froome seeing as we were denied the chance to see them battle it out properly in the tour de france.

FCHD

I think the world needs to see Rory McIlroy v Caroline Wozniacki heads-up.

Phantom66

Mike tyson v evander holyfield could have a bit of bite to it.

Well you've definitely set the benchmark high there!    ;-) 

I know it's not EXACTLY what you asked for but personally, I'd like to see Skypoker's ambassador Neil (Mr. Retweet) Channing versus Mohammad Ali (in his prime obvs).  It would be a VERY quiet game!  ;-)

P.S.  BTW Stapes may look& sound intimidating but he's really just a pu ssy cat underneath that brash yank exterior!

Last Xmas I got given a boxing punch bag with an image on it that looked a bit like Stapes.  I discarded it as I never thought I'd need it!  I'm gonna dig it out from the shed in a bit.   ;-))

But heads up

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.

Teach a man to fish, and you'll never have a decent conversation in the pub ever again.

FCHD

Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day

Teach a man to fish, and the poor early bird will go hungry.

Great show as usual. Nice to see Stapes behaving tonight!

Best Xmas poker present, a turbo open seat!

Worst Xmas present, no turbo open seat!

If that's not enough bribery then can I add that you too look amazing tonight and are my favourite presenters.

Hi Guys

I am effectively a bti of a novice at cash tables and usually play 4nl.

However I had a go at the master-cash tables tonight.

Could you possibly look at this hand for me where I made nut-flush on turn.

Was my check on the flop and turn bet ok?

hi great show

my try is to first verse of white Christmas

I'm dreaming of a good flop for Christmas,
in the Ukops main I'd be good to go,
I'll bet the turn and the river
but to a shove I'm sure to fold.

Hi

My Xmas song

It came upon the midnight clear

A glorious hand I got

With aces full upon the flop
