FAO SkyDan (November Nine tables?)

No not that one, there is ages until interest piques in the WSOP again.

The 9-seater micro stakes cash tables on Sky Poker.

Is there any chance that this could be reinstated to the lobby?  Or even better, spawned in both NH and PLO formats?

I appreciate there is little ongoing demand and no need for higher stakes 9-seaters, but this was a fantastic add on for ad hoc forum / team cash games so that a greater number of people could get involved, at a buy-in level that was inclusive for everyone to fearlessly donk away for double poos and giggles.

It's never going to draw rake from elsewhere, given that it will almost exclusively only be used by regs as one extra table, or to let off some steam when they'd otherwise not be playing at all.

If it gets its own tab on the cash tables, it won't even appear on the radar of other players to tempt them away from 6-max games.

Maybe its just me, but these were some of the most fun games on Sky. And the rake contribution was probably higher than normal games, due to the amount of 100% vpip play that even the nittiest of players would utilise only in these games :)

    Whichever idiot started those November games, owes me money!!

    Seriousy tho, rake must have been great as someone was all in every hand. And always a waiting list of folk seeing easy cash when they spotted the faces sat ha.

    Massive +1 to the PLO/8 version too.

    I have seen this thread (and I was sure I had replied to it!) and will aim to sort it out tomorrow for you. This last week has been exceptionally busy I'm afraid, I've been solely focused on UKOPS and Race to Punta Cana as well as the usual grind.

    This is going to have to be next week I'm afraid - we need someone to test this before we put it live and resource is taken up elsewhere at the moment.

    I think it will be desktop only btw, don't think mobile likes 9 seater tables.

    That's quality Dan, thanks for taking the time to add to your busy to do list.

    Happy just to get on there, given how much stuff is on the spin at the moment. Poker season getting in to full swing as the nights draw in.

    Look forward to donating £4 at a time to Harry and Samantha's respective holiday funds in the coming weeks.
