Alright folks!
Here's the skinny for Saturday night.
9pm start on Channel 865 (or watch the show via the stream on this site's homepage).
It's a night of cash poker with the Mastercash tables in action early doors and then the Cash 300 game where the buy-in is £300 and the blinds are £1.50/£3.
Your cabin crew tonight are: trolley dolly Richard Orford, first engineer Trevor Harris and esteemed navigator Wayne Rideout aka Team Sky Poker's tour-de-force Gliterbabe.
Also on the cards- 3 rounds of Orford's Disastermind. Fancy a go this week? Email your name and contact number tonight to skyopen@bskyb.com.
And of course, Top of the Pots just after midnight for the final hour.
As ever, we need your input below to make the show fizzle along. So- hand requests please(with hand i.d. numbers and a short explanation as to why you think we should show the hand), poker questions to Mr. Harris and Rideout and as much banter as poss.
Tonight's burning question:
Who would be your dream guest on the show and why?
This could range from the serious answer: eg Phil Ivey because he's the greatest poker mind in the land, to the not-so-serious: eg Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt (delete as applicable) for eye candy, Davina McCall just to wind Tikay up, or Stephen Fry because for once he wouldn't have a clue what he was talking about. You get the idea.
Looking forward to hearing from you all and good luck on the tables tonight. We'll be watching!
Comments
Serious answer-
Tom Dwan. He's just so brilliant- in fact I'm slightly worried I have a mancrush on him. Imagine getting his thoughts on our players and how he would counteract the likes of LoluFold and LJamesL!
Not-so-serious-
Drew Barrymore because I also have a bit of a crush on her (would that be a womancrush? I'm so confused).
And if I was doing a show with Tikay- I think I'd have to have Katie Price on- it would tilt him so much- he can't stand the woman!
Luke Schwartz just to see who he would call a donk and if he could stop swearing for 4 hours.Also would like to see how his mind works on analysing the game.
Not serious
Jeremy Clakson or Claudia Winkleman.
Act or no act though, his take on the world occasionally verges on some kind of mad genius. Those podcasts are at times absolutely hysterical.
I like to think he's real but I simply can't imagine a genuine idiot being Ricky Gervais' producer once upon a time on XFM. How the heck would he ever have managed to put those shows together?
Also hard to imagine why he still fixes his own toilets and borrow mattresses from his dad when he's now clearly a millionaire.
Still, gotta love him. Even though he has stilll got a head like an orange.
Daniel Negreanu, great player so would love to hear his analysis of different types of play. Plus he never stops talking so would be good entertainment too.
Not so serious answer:
Any ex or current Tottenham players/managers just for Trevor.
The future is bright....the future is orange! (TKP FTW!)
Is there going to be more ad breaks in tonight's show?? (So Wayne can sell us all insurance!)
Serious guest - Doyle Brunson, just....because.
Not so guest - Paul Gasgcoigne....nearly as daft as you are Rich!
Hope you all have a good show guys!!
How about Chris Ferguson..........oh sorry he's on tonight in his blue hoodie lol.
Keep 'em coming please! We'll be live in two hours
I would like Dohhhhhhh and Beaneh to be guest analyists on mastercash one week please. Together so they can argue and stuff.
Believe it or not im being serious. Would be good entertainment, but the only prob is, Beane will be too busy 95 tabling, and Dohhhhhh hasnt left his front room since 2005.:)
So good luck with getting those two in.
I would like to point out that he's on a wind-up of course and I've not made and never would make such comments!
Alan- you're going to get me sacked Andy Gray stylee at this rate for a crime I didn't commit!!!
My serious answer would be Vicky Coren... good to look at, intelligent and could probably out-tikay the old geezer.
Not so serious answer would be Cheryl Cole/Tweedy. Can you imagine the men? Not much poker being talked about there. Of course if LML was on the she could have someone like Daniel Craig...James Bond ftw.
Not so serious John Prescott his no nonsense style and dry humour I think would go down well. Edit- just like my football team Sheff utd lol
Gordon Ramsay would make Tikays blood pressure go through the roof!!!!
And Daniel Negreanu would be something else
Keith
Wasn't it nice to see Wolves win well today?? I hope the biggest team in the black country keep up the results and stay up.
I'd like to see Shane Warne/Boris Becker/Teddy Sheringham
Or even better , Mike McDermott
And if he was still alive i'd like to see Dr Richard Beeching on explaining to Tikay how much he enjoyed cutting up the railways
Richard i would like to ask Wayne at what cash level did he start out at and was it a struggle for him moving up the various levels.
Serious guest
Teddy Sheringham - more than cutting it in the big boys (and girls) poker scene and plenty of tilt factor for Trevor Harris
Not so Serious
David Cameron and George Osbourne on how they can improve the poker economy in hard times (would they increase rake like they increased VAT?)
Dave
Can they gain an advantage by this, or doesnt it really matter ? Or maybe it could even work in your favour sometimes ?
David Cameron so we could verbally abuse him for 4 hours str8
Colonel Gadafi to see him rambling on and see if he has actually gone insane, i don,t think he,d last 4 hours tho -
have a good show as always - MP
edit : How about setting a trap and inviting Bin Laden on - we could all come down and help arrest him and split the x amount of millions for his capture
Joking obviously Rich
But I would like to see Sky_Claire aka Atilla/Mother/SWMBO as a guest when Richard and Tikay are so they would have to behave themselves for a change!
Guest host: Jessie May
Silly guest host: Lady Gaga (pokerface-so bad)
Regards
Dan

Wondering if Wayne would make the call here..
I've only been at the table 5 minutes and don't really know the player who shoved, i think the fact it's 2p/4p made me call, but would he make the call if he was sat at the 1.50/3 pound tables for his full buy in..
i would love to see emu as a guest, then we will really see how annoyed tikey will get when emu get`s the nuts
id like to see john juanda on the show
hes not one of the always talked about players but i think his game is amazing....some of the reads hes made is unreal thought and hes not as good with it as others but his game is still good
could you also give a shout out for the ckd vs sky dave please post up ideas for my forfit if i lose
