The nights are drawing in and it's dark already as I write this at 4pm, so what better than to spend the evening in with the set-top box lodged firmly on Channel 865 for some ol' fashioned pokertainment?
Tonight sees myself joined by the sports encyclopedia himself, Trevor Harris and high-stakes cash game specialist Sim Mahon aka SimUK.
We'll be running the rule over the Mastercash tables from 9 on the site tonight- so make sure you're on those baizes if you want your play featured on the show. And we'll have the biggest hands of the week in our rundown of Top of The Pots at midnight too.
Two topics for you as ever this evening:
(1) Tell us something you've learned from watching Sky Poker TV
Ok, I'm sure we'll get some humorous answers to this, but it'd be also nice to get some serious ones too. Even if you're an experienced player, you must have picked up something new from one of the top pros we've had on. What was it and how has it improved your game?
and (2) because I'm reunited with Trevor, how could we NOT play...
Trevial Pursuit!
Yes, this ALWAYS gets a good response. So, usual scenario- post or email your trivia questions for Trev to answer- most people go for a football or sports one, but feel free to quiz him on any topic you like.
Anyone who stumps him with a question (that is reasonably answerable- nothing too ridiculously hard please!) will go into the hat and at the end of the night we'll draw a winner to get free entry into this Thursday night's Sky Sports Bounty hunter with £33 and covered live on 865!
That should be enough to get us started. And obviously we'll need your questions to Sim and Trev on poker plus hand requests and banter too.
See you at 9 then, my fellow poker lovers in the dark!
Hi Mike,

Carpet - Does every one walk all over him at the tables?
My dog loves to rub her face along the carpet and we call it carpet surfing so that's why I chose the name. I did look it up on google to check it didn't mean anything rude! Apparently it's what fish do when they jump out of their fish tanks and land on the carpet. There weren't enough letters for CarpetSurfer so that's why it's a bit short.
Great show.
