SKY is an abomination and the software you peddle that promotes terrible hand representation is possibly the worst in the industry. The site is a shadow of its earliest beginnings when I and friends played regularly, today its performs with corrupt and perverted outcomes in the poisitive for the purposes of gambling and to reward and encourage those that see the maths as a mere bagatel.

It runs just like the media corporation; unaccountable, unbelievable and disreputable. It was good in the beginning and its terrible now- sort it!

I have played on many sites and the software most definitely is not amongst the worst in the industry.

I played quite a few package qualifiers on the site that is the main sponsor of this years WSOP and had issues every night!

On some sites there is either no functioning hand replayer or one that works much less effectively than the one here. It would be nice to see the hand replayer showing the hands like an action replay but that really is a minor grumble, the one in place does work perfectly well and allows copy/pasting of hands to the forum.

The download client doesn't work for me and some others I have spoke to but that is not an issue as the browser play, far from being amongst the worst in the industry, is amongst the best I have played on. I have heard people report several bugs on the download client so I am more than happy to play via the browser which rarely gives me any issues even if playing numerous tables.

Apart from being completely subjective this just seems hyperbolic in the extreme.

Sky is accountable, that is an undisputable fact! They have to satify numerous regulatory bodies. The 'unbelievable' part sounds like some hands didn't go your way so rather than look at internal factors (your game) it is easier to just blame outside factors (Sky). Disreputable... How so? Like every other site issues seem to emerge now and then but I haven't seen one example of Sky doing anything even remotely underhand. On the contrary from what I have seen they have went above and beyond and support a lot of leagues etc via the forum, which sure may be in their interest, but isn't something they need to do. The rakeback also is up at the highest levels I have seen on a site and the promotions seem very generous too!

Sky may not be perfect and sure constructive feedback is good but this just seems like a bitter post filled with Rhetoric, hyperbole and untruths written as is from the perspective that you are a prisoner of Sky forced in some way to play here.

There are improvements I would love to see here but what is in place currently is very far removed from "unaccountable, unbelievable and disreputable" or "amongst the worst in the industry". Also the communication between players and staff is excellent (in great part thanks to Tikay who seems to be happy to help out players with issues big & small). I have also found live chat easy to get a hold of and always eager to solve any issues.

Even cashouts seem very easy compared to many other sites; I cashed out from one other site to an ewallet last week and it took almost a week. I also know another site where players are currently waiting for months. Thus far everything I have requested has been done in under a day.

You can get much better perverted outcomes on other websites.

Yeah becuase you're part of the problem and not the solution. poker is a mathematical game and screwing with the math completely destroys the gameplay. 

only an idiot would settle for skewed outcomes, simply because they (you) can't do the math.

Tell you what Markycash, your belief in accountability within a section of the gambling industry that in the main operates offshore and has, variously, been hit by scandals ranging across diverse criminal activities, makes you a naive sheep. Those bodies you refer to are no different to other bodies, like fifa and the like but in this case they have a direct relationship with activities for avoiding scrutiny, not to mention money laundering, tax evasion and tax avoidance. 

Any attempt to independently analyse SKY software and the outcomes in the positive range of pre-flop hand production and completion would show exactly what I have said; a range in the positive that produces skewed mathematical probabilities. 

SKY poker barely has any of its original members, for want of a better term, and the gambling attitude for profit of those that run it, choosing bounty hunters over other types of gameplay to futher skew activity, is poor to say the least. The software is awful, the outcomes incredible and the game type moronic. Those like you that defend it haven't witnessed it's demise, it's lost credibility and remains a very poor poker site run by people that refuse to improve it. Compare it to p'stars and see how they respond to member considerations and accurate software, they are the industry leaders and lead by example, SKY has worldwide notoriety and it's no surprise it can't step up to the plate and create a positive and honest poker site. Garbage is the word and sheep like you fall over yourselves to protect it, makes you foolish at best.

We all have choices in life.

Players here choose to play here.

You obviously don't like this site so just do one and leave us to carry on what we enjoy.

Oh and I don't quite understand how Skypoker has "worldwide notoriety" as its mainly only available in the uk ?

Very interesting to hear you talk about playing the site at its 'earliest beginnings' I was sure it was up and running before April 2016.........

Or maybe....nah surely not, especially when complaing about a sites intergrity, it would just be too ironic.......
