    Hi Jingle, long time no see, Walsall about 7 years ago was the last time iirc? Many years ago, you and I see to play a lot of NLH SNG's, but you and that pesky Nutter kid cleaned me out, and I had to move to the greener pastures of the 4 card game. :)

    Sorry if there has been confusion on this. All I can do is pass it on to the right Suits, which I will certainly do.

    Hope, that apart, all is well with you and yours.

    Thanks for the reply Tikay,

    Yes I'm very good thanks and good memeory! That was a 'oh so nearly' moment for me in Walsall when I bubbled AK v AQ against Simon Deadman I think, poker players never forget the losses lol. (Although I luckboxed my way to get there anyway!)

    Yes in the overall scheme of things this is a very minor issue, just not happy how it's been with dealt with is all.

    Hope you're doing great other than dealing with annoying forum posters like me, are you still in Vegas? I've checked out your blog and it's excellent, I'll try and join you next year! :-)

    POTO?

    Must admit it whooshed me yeterday.

    So I typed it into a well known search engine and landed on a page of a dictionary of urban phrases.

    1. Phantom of the Opera

    Mystery solved.

    But then, I read on and I must admit I am a bit nervous now.

    2. word in spanish popular in south america,(non-ofensive). 
    "a.ss" in english
    that girl has a great poto!!!
    3. noun. Acronym for Pointing Out The Obvious. Used when referring to someone who likes to point out the obvious.
    But of most concern (and I hope Gill never reads the forum).
    5. A potential lover or compatible friend. Not to be confused with a crush. A POTO is someone you could see yourself with but don't have immediate feelings for
    well she/he is a poto, we will see where it goes

    Just wanted to say that I was called back by Harry today from the Sky complaints team and his service was superb and resolved my issue on the spot after looking at my situation fairly and in depth.

    Great follow up by Sky after the disappointment of last night.

    I just checked, that Walsall final was 1st May 2011. Simon Deadman went on to finish 3rd, never a disgrace losing to Simon. Ryan Spittles looked like he might win it, but he ran a bluff & the eventual winner, Alan Mansbridge, made an amazing call.
     
    I'm really pleased this matter got sorted eventually.

    "annoying forum posters"? Not at all. 95% of all complaints come from 5% of the player base, & yes, they do get a bit tiresome with all their hyperbole, ("ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!") but I don't recall you ever complaining before, & your question was couched in civil & polite terms. Never mind dealing with those.
     
    And yes, am still in Vegas, living the dream. It's wonderful, & I'm very lucky.

    Answer # 1 is CORRECT.

    Just to confirm as to your original comment/post, which confused me slightly, the SMS was only sent to Sky Bet Club Members, so I assume that includes you. What made you think it was sent to everyone, if you don't mind me asking?

    Hope all is good with you, & you are keeping the PLO8 DYM tables going.

    The 2nd week of the skybet HTT promo, people posted here that they had got the password from an SMS and were not in SkyBet Club and they entered.

    I feared (wrongly as it turns out) that the same had happened again as there had been no clarification after the 2nd week complaints.

    I know there were ongoing issues with people who followed the promotion and knew they had qualified not getting notification, that is generally sorted fine through CC. Ideally there shouldn't be any issues at all but we don't live in a perfect world do we. 

    IMO people who know about the promotion having to contact CC to get in is a much lesser problem than people who didnt know about it, or qualify for it, managing to get in anyway.

    I repeat - enjoyed the promo and glad I entered. Got £60 back on the 3 tourneys for £7 entry and a flip or 2 more could have been alot more. Even if I hadn't won the added value was worth the entry. Cost me 3*£25 bets which luckily are just about holding up too.

    Infrequent on the PLO8 and poker tables in general - wont elaborate but there is a sad reason behind that.
