    Hello guys,

    Following some excellent feedback, we would like to inform you of a few changes that we have made to the new Sky Poker Rewards.

    1. We have increased the Tournament Token from £2.20 to £2.30.


    2. We will look to review the Rewards Freeroll payout structure after a couple of weeks of them running.


    3. We are making the £2.30 Tournament Tokens cumulative, so that you can save them up and buy into bigger games.


    4. The expiration date for the Tournament Tokens has been increased from 2 weeks to 6 months - giving you longer to save up your tokens and spend them on a variety of games.


    Our customer’s experiences are vital to us. We value everyone's feedback and use it to make Sky Poker a more rewarding, better place for you to enjoy your poker. Many thanks for your suggestions, please do let us know if you have any others.

    But what about those people about to board a 6 month round the world cruise? They still miss out.

    Not sure why people are saying the lower volume players are missing out. You only have to get 50-99 points per week and get entered into 5k worth of free rolls, which are going to be worth a lot more than they'd usually get through cash rewards. 

    Its the middle tier of raking players that don't make priority who are missing out IMO.

    Indeed.

    And realistically speaking, most people wouldn't stop on 90 points+ (or maybe lower), but will grind the extra 10 points just for the £2.30 token, which is £1.30 more value now than if they earned just 100 points.

    If you can't play at 7:00pm Mon-Fri (when I imagine a lot of people won't have got in from work yet) the lower tier players won't get anything.

    You can't always please everyone but I'd say the majority of people are home from work by 7. Maybe sky will have late reg on the freeroll?

    Think it is 7.30pm + late reg.  That is late enough imo.

    If you are at work, you can't play the earlier times people are asking for anyway :p

    Seems like SKY management are listening & taking a sensible approach.

    Sticking to the time restrictions on tokens would have been terrible management of the business. Glad to see that common sense has prevailed.

    Who'd want to take a 6 month holiday anyway when there are so many freerolls to be played? 

    You need to have a word with yourself and get your priorities sorted if you'd choose, say, the chance for 6 months of backpacking around Asia with a nympho 20-something Swedish girl with low self esteem, rather than sit at home alone playing free online poker.

    That aside, echo the positive comments above on the tweaks.  Expect a few live blogs from people using a few months of free tourni tokens to try and bink a MBI or main/mini JP :)

    Precisely why I'll be taking holidays exclusively around the UK from now on.

    Was nice to read the list of changes after the feedback.

    BIG +1 on the Sky response here.

    Points 1,3 and 4 in partciular will be a big incentive for me to aim for 100 pts each week.

    the weight on this promotion is rubbish no insentive at all past 100 points.  cash for pionts getting worst and worst.  for this to work they would have to run speical quad points on fridays/ week end to make up as i'll never get 1000 point in a week.
