    Sky is a smaller site, they can't just host 20 tournaments at once and have 4 runners in each. Tell your friends about sky more ☺️

    No but surely they can host more than 1!!! why would I tell my friends about it when I cant get a good game at this time, why would they be interested? surely SKY poker should be bigger than it is by now with the amount of years its been running! ONE tournament!!!

    Cath is my mothers name. 
    Is that you Mum?

    Ive just discovered exactly what you posted Cath. Unless im getting this wrong. I think its great value only getting a few runners in a guarenteed tournie. Its the only times i can reach a final table.

    There is not enough demand, it's primarily a UK & RoI facing site, & even though Sky Poker have a significant slice of that market, it's really quite small, especially on a Sunday morning, when many of us are shopping at Tesco, out jogging, or at church.
     
    PS - welcome back to Sky Poker, Cath, glad you have come home at last. 50 years is way too long.

    For the record, at 11.13, there are 7 MTT's currently running, with 13 more due to start within the next 45 minutes or so, (including satellites).

    Ha, God bless you Tom, I was not sure anyone would get it.

    Can you believe it was 50 years ago now? And yes, not much has changed, sadly.

    It was voted "2nd best TV Drama ever" in a poll in 2000.

    I vividly remember piping my eyes out first time I watched it.

    This all seemed to end rather well, Cath came home, played 3 MTT's, & even finalled one of them.

    Love a happy ending, me.
