    Hi Tikay
    Like Vespa, I regged for a DYM on a tablet but the table took all the first level to load.
    I then managed to play(fold) about 6 hands before the connection went and i just got a screen saying something about "no data received".
    After a few minutes I went back to the laptop to finish the game.

    Probably a question for the suits upatairs but
    If you reg for a DYM and play a bit on a tablet but have to finish on a laptop, does this count towards your 5 a day or not.
    I'm guessing not as the points are awarded at the end.
    What if you did it the other way round, start on lappy and finish on tablet?


    ps
    As you can see, some are still having problems like yesterday.
    Is this supposed to be fixed now?


    pps 
    If there is anything else I can do to make your head hurt more, don't hesitate to ask.!!!!!!!!!!      :)

    Yes.

    I don't know that for a fact, but I'd be pretty certain they can, yes.

    They measure, daily, how much traffic is via Mobile, so I can only assume they can tell whether you are on Mobile or not.

    Played for first time on mobile (I phone something or other).

    Obv, you can only play one table, so reg'd for a £5 game just to get the points (which I won, obv..thin brag) but table kept opening on my PC too at the same time as I was multi tabling on there. Everytime I closed on pc...kicked me out on phone too. This happened a few times. 

    Q.Any clues how I can overcome this?

    Log out of sky on PC and close sky poker on PC .... then play on mobile device

    edit: wait until multi tables finished and play on mobile at 3am

    Yes.

    I have no idea how, but yes, they know.
     
    Incidentally, Mobile traffic as a whole is measured separately to all the other traffic, for a variety of reasons.

    Morning Sky Poker Hoody Bloke,

    I prefer not to spend too long thinking about why you'd need a laptop in the bedroom.

    The Windows Phone OS is NOT currently supported by Sky Poker as far as I am aware, though I'm not really clued up on that stuff.

    I'm aware that many people develop Heath Robinson style workarounds to enable it, but I don't know how, & in any event, the Company would not be able to support it, so to speak.

    Morning Dragon.
     
    I would doubt it - personally, I'd assume not. Better to assume not than reach the end of the day/week & find you have not qualified.

    Incidentally, you mention "No Data Received" on the Tablet, & this problem, which was first identified yesterday afternoon, is currently under investigation. (See "Connection Issues" thread).

    That I doubt........

    On a complete sidenote, I was liaising with players & the office last night, & also Forum Posting replies, about a wider problem with Mobile connectivity. At the same time, I was 6 Tabling DYM's. Let me tell you this - it's not to be recommended. Sheesh, my head was all over the shop. Ended up losing a few bob, but at least I found an excuse for it. We love to self justify why we lose, don't we?

    On which note, I was amused to see a post appear overnight in "Brags & Beats" where a chap lost a hand in a perfectly standard spot.  It was a bit of a cooler really, but he was behind pre flop, & on the flop & turn, then even further behind on the river. (He had J-2 v J-4 on a J-J-9 flop). He had a zillion chop outs, but Villain housed up, gg. His only comment was "Sky, ffs, lol". 

    The "lol" is the clue of course, but strange how so many think that when we get beat, it's the site's fault.
