    "£5,000 Cash Game Championship

    Are you the best cash game player out there? Now is your chance to prove it"

    "The Leaderboard will keep track of all the Sky Poker Rewards points you earn on cash games"

     

    Yeah OK, that proves who's the BEST doesn't it. lol

    Nice for those that are willing to grind all month.

    I, on the other hand, would like to get out the house at least once or twice.  So not for me.

    Gl to those going for it.  I'll just have to bink a medal from one of the freerolls :)

    Sky - the only leaderboard that matters, is my 2014 Leaderboard:

    This is a leaderboard I might actually have a chance to get on.

    Priority excluded and with the bigger volume previously non prio people all going mad this month for the ps4 promo and being prio this month that will leave more room for people like me.

    ......well that is until the compulsory extra cash promo gets announced 2 days before the leaderboard is finalised and I get gazumped :)

     1. This promotion is open to individuals aged 18 years and over who have registered as customers of Sky Betting and Gaming (Sky Bet, Sky Poker, Sky Vegas and Sky Bingo).

    2. Priority Club members will not be able to participate in this promotion.

    Hello,

    Priority players will have a separate points race/promotion from the beginning of the month and on Feb 15th - 28th can participate in the £5K Cash Champ leaderboard so there is definitely enough going on for all players.

    Top 100 on the Winter Games Leaderboard will be credited cash on Feb 17th and then the leaderboard will refresh and run again until the 28th awarding the top 100 again with a cash prize.  All players will also receive a separate rewards payment on February 4th this month and 1st week next month.  Plenty of cash up for grabs this month folks.

    Not to mention £2K Winter Games Freerolls for participants in the Leaderboard.  Check here for full details on how to qualify:  https://www.skypoker.com/secure/poker/sky_lobby/poker-promotions/winter-games-freerolls


    Finally: Gold, Silver and Bronze plated medals for the top 3 on each promotion this month.  Photos of these medals should be up on social media next week or the week after.

    Good luck to all that play this month!

    The only thing id question is the timing of the Freerolls.

    They are currently said to be at 2pm.  Yes, they do lie on a Sunday, but many people will be busy at this time on a Sunday afternoon.

    Would it not make more sense to have the freerolls in the evening when the majority of people who have qualified are free?

    Hello,

    The idea is to get people playing earlier in the day at off peak hours, but we can definitely look at changing the times.  Does any one else strongly oppose having these at 2pm?

    There is never a time that suits everyone perfectly but the PS4 Freerolls seem to get very good numbers when we ran them at this time, which is why we kept it at this time for this promo.

    Thanks

    hi Justin

    the web site advertising the free rolls as 2pm on the 9th of January. Shouldn't this be the 9th of March if they are all on Sundays?
