    Yes, I completely understand the point, Craig, was just making the point that I will ask again, and that's all I can do. 

    I won't be asking about rake levels, there is no point, I doubt they will change in the near term.

    Okay I'll leave the rake debate for another day.

    Thanks again for re-presenting my issues with the token to the suits.

    Alas Phantom,  I am not sure that we will see any action on this for a while. 

    I saw a post from DarkAngel the other day,  frustrated that she did not have the option to choose not to use her token whilst playing on her mobile device. 

    Despite Tikay  bringing the matter to the attention of the suits, and the protestations from the regs, there doesn't appear to be any  sign of change coming over the horizon. 

    I thought changing the default to no would have been a simple solution to alleviate the problems encountered by the players in using their tokens in the tournaments they want, and not wasting  them on lesser buy in tournaments .  Other sites have an option box that you can choose to use the  token or cash. This would be my preferred option, but given the speed  at which we are progressing, I  don't think we will see that any time soon.

     I also think that the  option box should only appear when the tournament is at the value of the token or higher, but maybe the thinking on this is that players, for whatever reason I don't know, may  want to use their token for a lesser buy in. 

    Best of luck on the PLO8 tables

    Good morning.

    The Default setting on Tournament Tokens has now been amended to "NO".

    Sky Poker were aware that the previous default of "YES" caused many of you some angst, & often caused you to accidentally use it when you did not intend to.
     
    To change it from YES to NO was rather more complex than you may think, & required some extra coding which could only be done in conjunction with some other software changes.
     However, during last night's "Maintenance Outage" the Default was successfully changed to NO.
