    Good luck, whether you play here or elsewhere. This thread has had its moments.

    I've been playing on here for 4 years on the strength of 1 bonus, so can be done ;)

    Wouldn't you get to play quite a lot of freerolls if you returned to Sky? Not only can you use your points for freerolls throughout the day but also there is a main one every night which I think is a £1000, the great news for you would be that you wouldn't have to wade through thousands to get in the money. Haven't played one recently but from memory there are probably 1k or less runners. Even better when a series or promotion is on as Sky put on added prizes.  Seems to me that it's you that is missing out on a lot of value by not playing on Sky.

    Basically this.

    You've previously enjoyed playing here.
    You know the players and have plenty of friends and well wishers kicking about.
    You like to post on the forum.

    Who's missing the opportunity by not playing here; you or Sky? Maybe something to consider, but I think deep down you know the answer anyway.

    All the best on 888 or wherever your poker takes you.

    11/8/17      
    Just a quickie for those that have been following, & wanting more....
     Transferred 888 bankroll  of $127  to Pokerstars last Saturday 5/8/17
    Started playing 1 table 1c/2c zoom cash poker (fast fold, speed poker).
    Much to my surprise actually enjoying the new format so far, & have won 5 of the 6 sessions played,
    Showing a profit of $14  current b/r $141.21
    Also discovered today that I can play 2 tables on my tablet, (much to my delight...i believe 4 is the zoom max, so could be up to 3 or 4 tables soon, if tablet will allow me, although from what I've seen, only 2 are available for each level, so would mean playing  2x1c/2c & 2x2c/5c Which is a long way off at the moment, ha ha
    Obviously want to move up to 2/5 but will give it a bit longer to make sure I'm not just on a heater, before making the jump, :)
    I have observed a 2/5 table briefly, & from what I've seen it's way more aggressive than 1/2 a lot more 3 & 4 betting & 1 guy even went aipf with 10 10 v KK funilly enough, & yes the Kings did win :)   
    So i'm thinking i'll probably need a b/r of around 200 to 250 now before making the jump, but there's no rush to jump up, I will as always do it when I feel comfortable & ready.
    Anyway that's all for now, probably give it until the end of the month, then get back to you.

    12/8/17     $146.09    another nice winning session this morning 2 tables seems to be working well...
                                           Soon be at 2/5 at this rate, ha ha
    13/8/17   $150.70

    In Response to Re: Devonfish5, playing ca$h. 2/5...quote of the day..."The more I practice the luckier I get" b/r 117.73:

    Out of interest, why are you not playing on sky?

    Hi James, I have mentioned why in my first post, but as you have asked I will give a more in depth answer.
    Firstly, I wanted to play at the cheapest level available as I was/still am a cash novice, so the cheapest I could find was 1c/2c @888, had you still had 1p/2p tables available here I would have been happy to play here.
    Secondly, you get a lot more 'freerolls' @888 which of course I make the most of.
    Thirdly, I also receive the occasional cash bonus @i888 the last one being $10, this would have been back when my b/r was just beginning at around the $7 mark, as I remember the jump up to $17 at the time being massive.
    Fourth, I also get the occasional deposit/bonus reward offer, (which I did hint at here a little while ago, which was treated as a joke by pretty much everyone,) not really the best response I could have had.

    Now don't get me wrong, I love it here @Sky Poker as this was the first site I signed up to, and I found the Dym tables profitable & made a lot of friends here. I only stopped playing them as I fancied a change and a new challenge hence my change to playing the cash tables.
    If there is a way of me returning to play here then let's try & find it. It just needs some 'give & take' I feel.
    Ok, I've been honest & as open as I can be, so let's see where we go from here. 
    All the best, from Ian.



    Looks like we found it (the deposit tab)
