Rightio folks, tonight’s a live night on 865 and the lineup looks like this!
* Richard Orford and Redmond Lee will be live on air from 7pm
* 8pm- Ask the Expert- get all those poker questions and hands to be analysed to resident pro Redmond Lee
* 9pm- Sky Poker School- Tonight’s theme: “Shove/committing your stack in Cash”
* 10pm- Chat Box- all the latest poker news from around the globe
* 11pm- Master Cash- live action from Sky Poker.com’s virtual cash tables.
And competition time:
In a nod to the Sky Poker Spotify mixtape- I’m asking...
What songs would make it on to a poker jukebox?
But here’s the rub, this is not simply a request for your favourites tunes to listen to whilst playing poker. We’re talking puns on song titles and artists/bands.
e.g. “You raise me up” by Westlife
“Where do broken heart flushes go?” by Whitney Houston
“Welcome to the full House of Fun” by Madness or, also by Madness …
“Our Full House…in the middle of 4th street”
Etc etc.
You get the idea.
The best one tonight will win a free seat into next Tuesday’s 5K Open main event.
And they’ll also be TWO seats available for Thursday night's SPT Blackpool Semi for the best message contribution tonight to do with poker...whether a question, some interesting thoughts or a really good hand etc.
So get firing away below please and I’ll see you at 7!
Chatbox topics will be posted below. Any thoughts on those would also be appreciated!

Queen offer a rich vein - "Flat Calling Girls"
And, in a similar theme - who could forget that popular kids' lunchtime programme from the 80's - "Button Raise" ?
I won't be watching tonight as i'm gigging with my band Wild Front Tears.
A question for Reds - i often search for you on the lobby because i find that watching your play is pretty interesting. However, lately i noticed you seem to be sitting at around 10/11 tables alone for hours on end! Are you starting to regret becoming really well known for your skills around here? :P
I'm sure it will be a great show as always and i hope i can catch it on the repeat.
PS, Rich i don't know if it's an old or a new thing but i really enjoyed your little chat with Tikay around that little park that aired yesterday.
Three Lyonsbobs on a shirt
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Poker's coming home
Everyone seems to know my game
They've seen it all before
They just bluff
They're so sure
That Lambert's gonna
Throw it away
Gonna blind it away
But I know I can play
Cos' I remember
Three jacks on the flop
Poker_Fail still gleaming
100 big blinds of hurt
Never stoppped me playing
So many rubs, so many jeers
But all those oh so nears
Wear your BR down
Through the month
But I still see that
Two pair on flop
And when Poker_Fail shoved
The turn filling my boat
And raking the pot
Three jacks on the flop
Poker_Fail still gleaming
100 big blinds of hurt
Never stopped me playing
I know that was then
But I could bink again
It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
Poker's coming home
Three jacks on the flop
Poker_Fail still gleaming
100 big blinds of hurt
Never stopped me playing
Hope that makes sense, if not BLAME ORFORD
Shoot the runner runner - Kasabian
Boulevard of broken straight draws – Green Day
I bet that you look good with a flush draw – Arctic Monkeys
London calling station – The Clash
Hopefully I can get a seat though, would be interesting to play 1 which A) has a much better structure and
Has it been decided yet as to what the bounties will be, I know they will be a fixed amount rather than 75% and 25% on your head (cos that would be impossible live), but how much will it be? I've heard rumours of it being £50 which seems about right, but will definitely change the dynamic alot depending on what Sky decide.
Have a good one, dunno if I'm gonna get to see the whole show but I'll definitely drop in.

"The Winner Takes It All"
I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now Hand history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner takes it all
The loser's standing small
Beside the victory
That's a destiny
I was in that hand
Thinking I belonged there
Happy with King Jack
Building me a stack
Building me a pot
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing with no rules
The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses one hand dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.
But tell me should I shove?
Should I just have folded?
How it made me frown
When you called me down
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I’d raise you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed
Producers will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Will see my demise
The game is on TV
Orford and Redmond Lee
Review my rise and fall
The winner takes it all
Beat Surrender - The Jam
Shoot the Runner - Kasabian
Happy House - Siouxsie & The Banshees
All or nothing - Small Faces
Take me to the river - Talking Heads
Rolling in the Deep - Adele
Burn baby Burn - Ash
Should i "call" or should i "fold" - The Clash
Short and snappy please. Maybe with a sentence or two of lyrics thrown in if you must :-)
:-)
And now the end is near
And so I face the final outdraw
My opponent I'll say it clear
I'll show my cards of which I'm certain
I've played a game that was basically awfull
I bet each and every street
And more, much more than this
I lost it my way
Redraws I've had a few
But then again too few to start a thread
I did what I had to do
And luckboxed it through without redemption
I played each set of course
Each careful hand along the binkway
And more, much more than this
I lost it my way
Yes there were flops I'm sure you knew
When I bluffed more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I 3 bet light to see it out, I faced it all
And I stood tall and lost it my way
I've swore I've cried and cried
I've had my fill, my share of donking
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say not in a proper way
Oh no, oh no, not me
I lost it my way
For what is a bad beat what has it got
If not the software, then it is not
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words which make the mods squeal
My poker record shows I took the beats
And lost it my way
Yes it was bad poker day
NO MORE ENTIRE SONG LYRICS PLEASE!
