In Response to Re: Cash Promo : Of course, everyone can. Posted by Sky_Poker
OK brilliant,Can you do a promotion to let me wins tonight main event lol..
I think if you do a thread on this you will get a good few ideas,Im wondering about maybe winners of the main and mini torns go into a monthly freeroll with a gtd of about 5k?.I think this would be great tv viewing aswell as all the players would be monthly winners of the main or mini .As for cash bonus rewards maybe you could also do best post of the month and winner gets into sky roller?
Lastly regards c4p i think its really hard to please all but i suggest you try and benefit the smaller stake players with maybe a league basis aswell as there cash bonus ie top 30 get extra cash payout so for instance 1st gets 200.00 2nd 100.00 3rd 50.00 down to 10th gets 10.00 then 11th to say 30th gets between £3-£7 as an extra bonus.
Was speaking to a reg last night about the promo, and we both agreed that it doesn't do the site any justice during this time. 4+ regs to every table (playing tight on 10+ tables). Hence why I don't play happy hour any more, due to the action bein'... well, yeah.Way too tight. I thought it would be a good promo if it was based on hands won,(this is where the action would be created, and opening up a lot of tables wouldn't help as much. Unless of course, you were going to open up your range. I dunno what other regs (or players) think of this current promo, but I personally love promos. Just not the current format of the one happening at the moment. Posted by kidwiz10
FWIW, why do a decent percentage of the forum feel the need to put their posts in huge font? If you want to stand out, post engaging and rivetting content. You don't need to shout through the screen to get everyones attention, it just... ugh.
As far as the promo goes, it's obvious that with the departure of a few regs off to Vegas, Sky are trying to keep the numbers from dropping with a cheap and simple promo, so they still make decent dolla over the summer.
Is it going to affect how many tables I play, for an extra £400? No. Do I feel like there are better promos out there that would cost just as much, if not less, with a more desirable result for Sky? Yes. Will the promotion ultimately accomplish what Sky are trying to achieve? Meh, roughly. Yeah.
Belsibub, we do have many other promos too. What additional promotions would you like? Posted by Sky_Poker
I only have ever played on here so am only used to what has been done here.I understand the reason why most promo's are the way they are. Rake race max hand type promo's are clearly aimed at a certain type of player.The average reg/rec may try to compete but will soon realise the pointlessness of this and not bother in the future.This might reduce rec traffic in the long run if every table is populated by the same players cash or stt.So running the same thing over & over might be bad just my opinion. As for new idears ummm. I read other player suggesting more for stt's i think a % win rate over a certain amount of games say 100 in a week or 500 in a month.Or the same with roi. Can't think of anything else but will comment on past things i liked and review what's in promo page as it pertains to me. Not sure if classed as promo's but do get people on to the site and i usually played more at those times. So liked T.K.O ,Premiership and other team events and Golden Ticket. 1st week liked Syndicate Freeroll.After the removal of the original stake from the total the bet seems superfluous unless the odds are dramatically increased in the choices plus the change to a timed tourney not to my taste.May i suggest rotating the tourney format standard,timed,bounty hunter then omaha. As for the rest of the freerolls used to play them a lot but not anymore.To many sats & turbos,tried the turbos again not for me. As for everything else on promo page Sky Poker Rewards good and the rest are not applicable to me.Don't play cash,mains or Wednesday.
Yet again the same old things nothing new, and only aimed at a small percentage of your sky players, with this promotion u could guess who the top ten will be, how about a promotion that envolves everyone on sky, many have been suggested but unless it involves huge rake for sky its not done which i understand,but this cash promo is stale 3 in the last 6 weeks surely u pay people to come up with ideas,time to earn the wages then and come up with a few.

Reduced rake weekends
Double rewards point weeks (or days or even hours)
Something to make sure virtually everybody can gain apart from the very few players who play loads of cash tables for hours on end.
