Forget Man Utd v Liveropool - the BIG GAME is on 865 this week!

edited September 2010 in Poker Chat

The new Format for MasterCash includes the Cash £300 every Saturday EXCEPT the third Saturday of the month - which is this Saturday.

So this Saturday, it's the Monthly £1,000 BIG GAME.

Great to play, greater to Analyse, & greaterer to watch, so don't forget to tell your mates, Channel 865 this Saturday will feature - we hope! - some terrific Live Poker action.

The Regular MasterCash Tables will also be featured, as well as Top of the Pots, with "BIG GAME" as the central feature.
 
OK, I need to go tell the nosebleed boyz that this Saturday night is BIG GAME night.

I know all the "usual suspects", but if you have any names you think may be interested, let me know, please. I'll also work FB & Twitter to make sure they all know.

BIG GAME - this will be our third one - is always a bum-clencher for the Producer, Presenter, & Analyst, but you know me, I'm not in the least bit worried. Much.

    Should be a great game.
    I got a call today by a nice girl at Sky telling me the game was on and asking if i would be playing.  It was almost like she was trying to sign me up for the game.  I asked what was special about the game and if there was anything added which there isn't.  I wish my bankroll allowed me to play in a 1k pullup game but alas it doesn't at the moment.  Am still not sure how i feel about people being called for marketing purposes and advised about a game which for most,  is waaaaay out of their bankrolls.  Afterall, how often does a 5/10 game fill?  Am i being a bit touchy again or right to be wary of lower level players being sucked in? 
    With that said i look forward to watching a good scrap if i'm home.  I take it you'll be participating Tikay?  ;)

    300 is a much more realistic amount than 1k.

    with no option for people to be able to win a chance to play this will get pretty stale and pointless imo.

    Get Giddens and/or Harris in the cash300 version and i'm sure your numbers will go through the roof, with that kind of value i'd even play!

    Infact. hasn't Ed claimed to have played higher than this b4 anyway, get him in this one!

    Behave Cotty!

    I cannot play in it because......

    1) I am the Analyst on the Show tonight, so that'd make it kinda tricky, especially as "I know NOTHING" Orford is the Presenter.

    2) I don't play Online Hold Em Cash, or even Offline Hold Em Cash, at that level. Hi-Lo, Stud, DC, or even Hold Em Tourneys, all those, yeah, count me in, but not Hold Em!

    I really think it would be great for a minor celebrity to play the big game... this would generate alot more interest imo.

    Someone with lots of money who loves to play poker but needs to improve their game...

    Im sure sky have contacts with some of the previous celebrity guests they had on the open before for example

    A lot of those boxes would be ticked by Rich Orford, but he's unavailable, as he's tonight's Presenter.
