Sky Poker has announced their special line-up of Christmas events, which will include the Christmas Tikay Giveaway and an expanded version of Sky Poker’s popular Bounty Hunter Tournament.

The Christmas Tikay Giveaway will see players competing for the grand prize of a home visit from Sky Poker analyst and UK poker legend Tony ‘Tikay’ Kendall, who will also host a poker tournament at the winner’s home. Tikay directs all the live tournaments on the Sky Poker UK Tour and has also commentated on and analysed thousands of hands live on Sky. The Christmas Tikay Giveaway will air live on Sky Poker’s nightly tournament, The Open, at 9pm on Saturday December 27. The tournament will be hosted by Norman Pace and Tikay.

The Bounty Hunter Christmas Blowout saw 13 Sky Poker presenters and analysts playing in a special tournament of 700 players, which was aired on Monday and indeed was a special evening of poker. Players included Helen Chamberlain, Matt Broughton, Michelle Orpe and Richard Orford.

Sky Poker players will also be able to increase the number of Sky Poker points they earn over the Christmas. From today to December 27, players who play cash tables on two separate days will have their December cash for points bonus boosted by 10 percent.
