Changes (4) - Channel 865.

Tikay10

This one is complicated, so bear with me, please.

Starting on the weekend of November 6th & 7th, & thereafter until further notice, the Saturday & Sunday Live Shows will start at NINE pm, 2100 hours, (NOT 8pm, 2000 hours, as before) & be on air, Live, until 1am, or as they say in TV-Ville, 2500 hours.

This will, we hope, enable the Final Table to be shown of the Sunday Primo. Thursday's Show will remain at 8pm until Midnight (2000-2400) to fit in with Sky Sports.

Please Note - The Main Events will STILL start at 8pm, 2000 hours.

As such, the schedule of 30 minute Pre-Records will change, too. 

There will be three pre-records, as follows.....

Saturdays "Open" Final

Poker School

TSP Classic - highlights from that weeks TSP Classics.

Saturday's Live Show will continue to major on Cash, but with the added ingredient of, we hope, one of Team Sky Poker in the Studio, to field questions, & help with the analysis. (STILL TO BE CONFIRMED).

Assuming this happens, & the STP-ers WILL be invited, then they will appear on the Pre-Record done that day, which will be "POKER SCHOOL".

Concurrent with all this, it looks like our Studio Move to BIG SKY will occur in late November or early December.

All systems go!

Excellent idea to show the primo final table live, i cant ever recall it lasting longer than 1am so im sure it will work, although with 15 mins blinds now.... it could be close innit

Yes, it might be tight, but remember, the increased Buy-In will result in fewer players. It's for a Trial Period, so if it does not work, we'll get a hail of abuse fom the Usual Suspects, & we'll change it.

More news on the changes as they will affect Channel 865, especially as to Poker School.

Attila sent us all a Memo, & really, I may as well produce the relevant part of that, because it expresses it perfectly. I do have Attila's permission so to do. Imagine re-producing it without her say-so, I'd be sooooo dead.

Five Brilliant Changes in a nutshell...

1. Mastercash from 21:00 - 25:00
2. The Primo from 21:00 - 25:00
3. 30 minute show - The Saturday Open Final
4. 30 minute show - Poker School with TSP
5. 30 minute show - TSP Classic highlights

These are all absolutely great changes to the schedule and I look forward to all of them. 

Whoever has the power can you try and get Series Link working from when these programmes start?  You wouldn't want your viewers to miss them would you?
