Appear on PKR TV
Are you an online poker room player with a desire to demonstrate your prowess to a knowledgeable audience of television viewers? If so, you will want to start playing in the special TV tournaments at PKR, because if you make it to the final table you’ll be featured on television. Even better, if you make the ‘Play of the Game’ then you will be awarded a $250 entry into the PKR Masters tournament, which gives you chance of winning $100,000!
The ‘Play of the Game’ is the play that the PKR TV commentators think is the most impressive during each final table session, so you don’t actually need to win the tournament outright to win yourself the $250 entry. The commentators will be looking for ‘clever, unique, bold and just plain unexpected moves’ in every final table that is featured on the TV show.
If you haven’t yet discovered the PKR TV programme then we can tell you that it’s on Sky channel 166 and also on channel 505. If you haven’t got Sky television then don’t worry because you can watch the show online at the PKR TV website. The television show schedule is also available at the website, so be sure to check out the finer details if you intend to make the most of this opportunity.
As well as giving you a chance to enjoy your 15 minutes of fame in the online poker world and possibly a free shot at the $100,000 PKR Masters prize money, appearing on PKR TV could also help you to improve you game. Why? Because the commentary team will comment on your plays, and that objective opinion will enable you to maximise your strengths and tighten up your weaknesses. Simply appearing on the show could therefore make you a more profitable poker player in the future.
Of course, the final table action isn’t broadcast live. Instead, the game is recorded (and no doubt edited) for broadcast during the scheduled TV show slot. This means that you don’t have to worry about your opponents tuning in to see what cards you have in the hole. Most experienced online poker players will realise this already, but it’s an important point to make for anyone who is new to the subject.
PKR is currently offering a 100% bonus worth up to $800, so if you haven’t joined already you will want to visit PKR and sign up today. Take part in the PKR TV tournaments and we will look forward to seeing you playing on the small screen in the near future!
