Two new programmes from broadcaster feature roundup of best virtual moments alongside cash game competitions
Thursday 29th May 2008
English online poker provider and broadcaster Sky Poker has announced the launch of two new shows on Channel 846, Stacked Up and Poker Unlimited.
Stacked Up is to be a weekly programme specialising on the art of the cash game and will see teams of three expert and novice poker players alongside Sky Poker presenters compete in online contests against each other. The winning team will be the one that has increased their bankroll by the larger percentage whether at lower or higher stakes.
'As the first television show focused entirely on cash games, Stacked Up will be a revolution in television poker programming,' said Pete Ward, Head of Channels for Sky Poker and Sky Bingo.
'Stacked Up is the just the latest show to launch on Channel 846 as we constantly look to bring exciting, entertaining and educational content to the community of Sky Poker players.'
The second new programme, Poker Unlimited, will be a tour of the virtual tables at Sky Poker and focus on all the major events at the site, presenting in-depth analysis of its satellite and multi-table tournaments, sit and go’s and cash games.
'With so much action happening at Sky Poker, it is easy to miss the most exciting moments from the various tournaments,' said Ward.
'Poker Unlimited is hosted by the regular Sky Poker hosts and features the best bits from all of our tournaments including The Open, Velocity and The Five 0.'
