Minimum buy-in

Any chance in the future of Sky increasing the minimum buy in to a table? Say 50xbb?

There's even 1 table at 5/10p level that you can join with 50p!

What does everyone think? Pro or anti smallstack?

    would be great if sky introduced 'deepstack' cash tables, where min buy in is 100bb's n max is normally 200bb's, alot of other sites have them and they are getting more and more popular with players getting frustrated with people loadin up wiv 10/20 bb's n jus waiting 2 push

    possible at the higher levels but at the lower levels keep it as it is, if someone wants to lose 50p at a 5p/10p, let em :)

    short stackers are a pain in the xxxx, most sites have 50BB min tables, im not saying all tables should be this way but it would be nice to sit at a table were players who leave arnt replaced by others with like 6 BBs, you know it makes sense!

    Personally I think we should have a normal & deep stack cash tables.

    Normal tables should be minimum 20BB (maybe 25) & 100 max

    Deep stack should be 75 (maybe 100) min & 250 max.

    I regularly play the 5/10 tables & really don't understand why you would sit down with £20. If I'm gonna sit down with that much then I'll go play 10/20 (which I do on occasions).

    Also, I quite often see people sit down with £1 & constantly shove every hand then promptly leave when they lose. If you want to do that then go play a roulette SnG.

    Each to their own, if you wanna buy in for 5 bb to clear the last 50p from your account then it doesn't bother me although there is probably no point. I understand Max buy ins to stop people just buying tables but never really understood a min buy in. If you want to sit at a table with 1 bb and lose it the why does the site care? (although i do understand why as players people don't like ultra short stacks)
