Interactive Programming
Who needs the online casinos when gamblers can just head over the their favorite
Sky Channel Station and participate in some of the station’s cash poker games or
benefit from some in-depth poker gaming analysis from professionals. The Sky
Poker channels are offering players two new experiences: “Stacked Up” and “Sky
Poker Unlimited.” Poker players are able to tune into the Sky Poker channels on
their home TVs and watch the poker players compete in new tourneys and poker
games in real time.
The two new programs are designed to fill a current niche within the online
casino gambling industry. Poker players are always looking for innovative ways
to participate in poker gambling, and while online poker certainly fills that
space for some, interactive and live Sky Poker gambling is growing a large base
of followers in the UK. The Head of Channels for Sky Poker and Sky Bingo, Pete
Ward, elaborated on the two new shows. He notes, “With so much action happening
at Sky Poker it is easy to miss the most exciting moments from the various
tournaments, Sky Poker Unlimited is hosted by the regular Sky Poker
personalities and features the best from all of our tournaments, including The
Open, Velocity and The Five 0.”
As for the other new online poker show on the Sky Poker channels, gamblers can
look forward to the cash games in the new “Stacked Up” poker show. Ward notes,
“As the first TV show focused entirely on cash games Stacked Up will be a
revolution in interactive TV poker programming.” The interactive element of Sky
TV is slowly transforming the way that at-home gamblers watch and play online
poker from their televisions. |
