A trio of news stories from 888Poker including further details on Pick’em8, a downloadable shot clock, and a deep run at the PokerStars European Poker Tour in Prague for Parker “Tonkaaaa” Talbot.

I leave my teabag in the cup until that’s all there is. I used to press the life out of it with a spoon before it joined the carrot tops and celery ends in the brown bin, so I am a man who embraces change, so why is the latest offering from 888 bugging me?

News started fluttering around the digital airwaves that 888Poker had plans to launch a new game back in September. There was even a name ‘Pik’em Poker,’ but nothing from the mouth of the horse.

Nearly four months later, the mouth of the horse remains shut, but that hasn’t stopped the word hitting the street.
