    The software definitely needs modernising. A configurable bet slider would be nice too.

    Yeah defiantly needs to be done sooner rather than later, I know it can slow the game down. Although you have to remember sky there is money on the line and sometimes Afew seconds just isn't enough. When multi tabling cash I tend to time out a lot because you don't have time to think about a hand and do anything else on the others

    couldn't agree more my friend, i think this put's alot of the new customer's off. most of the time i just type what i want the bet to be for different textures andways but it would be time saving!

    haha :)
    i would like it more for MTT's. i find myself timing down quite abit in tough spots and just clicking buttons because the timer is so low, instead of thinking it through more.
    couldn't say it wouldn't come in handy though even knowing it would slow the game down to a certian degree.
    just an idea that I'm sure has came up in the past.

    You're probably experienced in multi tabling. I've always struggled with it. I end up playing like a robot and become to nitty if I just start clicking buttons and not thinking about it.

    I agree that sometimes you can feel rushed for decisions but on the other hand there's some players who love to use up the current time bank as it is and if you were to give those people extra time it would be awful.

    Making the time bank longer for higher buy ins might be an option although dont know if the software can handle that.

    This LOL

    Theres no question a time bank would help but we all play under the same rules so nobody has an unfair advantage

    I guess the only new customers it would put off if any would be regs who multi table

    it's just annoying to me sometimes that i can't even think, even when playing like 4 tables if there are multible decisions to be made at the same time in them weird and awkward spots. make's my game worse than it already is LOL

        "Three Bears "  Baby Bear me finks Sky have it correct at the Minute

    The Time bar can be used to slow play when getting near the bubble ..... very annoying for some players.

    Can also be ploy to trick players into thinking you have weak hand.

    Bot users need extra time to make cup of tea.?

    If you need to phone a friend  play one table at a time.

    Not having a time bank late in MTTs is really really annoying and the thing I would most like to see added to Sky.

    Im not 100% certain, but i think you do get extra time per decision when you get deep in an mtt, A time bank would be nice, but i dont think it is that important in the grand scheme of things, theres quite a few Mtt regs who play roughly 6-10 tables at a time and very very rarely time out.

    It would make an interesting idea for a new tournament every one starts with a ten minute bank and when it's done your out a bit like a timed chess game
