I was lucky enough to get the job to do the color commentary for high stakes poker - UK

check me and Bart Hanson out at www.liveatthebike.com - We'll be talking about it from time to time.

Grats on picking up that job. Now I will have to find a way to watch that too.

Besides moving to England, you'll probably won't be able to see it. It's airing on Sky in January 07, then AllIn Sports in May.

I wonder if full tilt is fronting their buy-ins this time; they must at least be getting an hourly rate.

Some good soul in the UK has got to rip this and post it somewhere. But don't post a link, that would be wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

They should just call it high stakes euro or something. Although I love seeing ivey and the others play, they should get UK people in here like Surinder, Devilfish, etc.

Surinder would get destroyed but Devilfish would be a lot of fun to see, also the Hendon Mob guys. I know Ram plays a ton of cash games online, he should be set to roll.

There *really* needs to be a televised cash game with the "name pros" (Doyle, Full Tilt crew, etc.) against internet pros (H@ll, Prahlad, GP, aba, etc.)

Blinds will be $400-$800 with a $100 ante. Min buy-in is $100,000 - but apparantly most of the players will have much more.

as for the show being picked up in the States - it's already happened. We are filming a .com version for the UK and a .net version for the States.

It should be crazy fun - you won't have to wait to watch it...I'll be talking about it when I get back on live at the bike. I wish Bart Hanson was going with me - he really is the best play by play guy out there. But...politics and other crap happened, so it's just me this time.

I agree Tuck you and Bart just work very well together. Mostly because you know when to give the other guy space to finish thoughts. Great to hear that we will get to see it over here.

Kevmath you know as well as I do just because its airing over there doesnt mean I wouldnt be able to watch it here. Just makes it more if a challenge. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
