 About PokerScope PokerscopeWe find out who the tightest and loosest players are; who’s been catching the cards and who’s been running bad; and which players are equipped with aggression of Ghengis Khan while their opponents wait tight for aces. Most poker programmes are edited, and the UKPT is no exception. But PokerScope helps fill in the gaps that viewers don't see, helping to explain the thinking behind key decisions. Keep watching this space for exclusive PokerScope graphs and analysis after each show. |
Channel 4's award-winning production team, Sunset & Vine follow every hand dealt on the GUKPT. Here’s a sneak peak behind the scenes from the biggest poker show to be shown on British TV: The crew set up the TV table in the casino, with 35 crew members for each show. As play gets under way, outside the casino in the TV truck the director watches the play from all angles – choosing the best shot from the seven cameras used to capture all the action. Inside the casino the final table plays out in front of a live audience. An image recognition system records the details of each hand dealt. The cameras record every hand played, with over ten hours of video recorded – which will be edited down to two one-hour shows at a later date. Channel 4 presenter Dougie Anderson conducts the post-match interviews... and it’s a wrap. |
