888 Poker Ashes to air on Channel Nine!
The Poker Ashes was a 5 test series with ex-Aussie cricketers against the Poms. My team consisted of Damien Martyn, Dean Jones, Jeff Thomson and two 888 online qualifiers Adam Kloens and John Tanner. The Poms captained by Darren Gough included Matthew Hoggard, Min Patel, Gladstone Small, Dimitri Mascarenhas, Rob Key and Peter Such – two UK qualifiers also played.
We played a test each day and there was plenty of trash talking and all round competitiveness from both teams. The Nine Network will air the series from 30th September on Wednesday nights until end of October.
You’ll have to watch the show to see who wins the series, and the urn. For the Poker Ashes, we burnt some poker cards and put them in the urn.
