BOOM! First thing’s first, it’s the second deepstack game of the BSOP tomorrow, $11 to play. Even if you’ve no interest in the league there should be a reasonable amount of money flying round and you’ve got a chance to grab some of it. It’s at 8pm, do come and join us.<\/a><\/p>\n

NEXT! We’re fascinated by the Going for Gold<\/strong> app. We’re currently having a think about how we’re doing our app reviews because half of the ones listed on our app review page <\/a>don’t exist any more – we might end up moving the ones done to the specials board and incorporating new things onto the main page. Anyway, it’s made by the same people who bought you Mastermind<\/strong>, A Question of Sport<\/strong> and Strike It Lucky <\/strong>none of which were terribly good.

It also has Game Center connections, but it doesn’t register that fact unless you go to the leaderboards first. Going for Gold<\/strong>, there.<\/p>\n

In other news it sounds like Countdown<\/strong> will be moving back to 3:10 from May 20th<\/a> (I’m not quite sure what uplift in viewers is expected, but I think it will be disappointing, especially as there is competition in the 3-4pm slot now) and that evidently The Chase<\/strong> will be getting a few weeks off as Paul O Grady’s doing his chatshow again<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
