Free bets SkyPoker

Sky Poker is the company's online poker division, which allows users to play poker on their website and screens selected hands from various games and tournaments (on a slight delay) on it's television channel of the same name. Like Sky Vegas the company offers its service in browser rather than with downloadable software. The company uses the slogan 'Where Poker Comes Alive'. The channel Sky Poker launched in February 2007 with a program entitled "The Open", which is a (£10 entry) poker tournament. Since then the channel has expanded to show more content from the site, as well as the Sky Poker UK Tour (SPUKT). On the TV, Sky Poker typically has a presenter and an analyst, with occasional studio guests. Each hand shown is analysed by both the presenter and the analyst.
Sky Poker is licensed and regulated by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC) (GCB).
