New Poker Channel to Debut on SKY UK

In yet another indicator of people spending more of their spare time sweating over how they�re going to approach their next game of poker, Jonny Texas Productions has announced that they are to launch a new TV channel in the UK.

Broadcast on Sky Digital channel 187 every weekday evening from studios in Birmingham, the plan is simple: give the audience some live poker, a few celebrity interviews, some news and a bit of information on the UK and European poker scene.

The channel is part of a wider success story for Jonny Texas productions, owned by Birmingham-born poker player Jonny Texas (not his real name apparently), with an online poker room and a range of branded products already on offer. The aim is to entice people coming in from the pub to give up their usual football diet for something a bit more taxing on the grey matter. Whether the channel leads the charge to a round the clock poker network remains to be seen, but surely it�s only a matter of time.
