Sky restricting players to a maximum of 6 tables

LARSON7LARSON7 Member Posts: 4,495
What does everyone think about Sky's recent announcement about restricting table count to 6 tables maximum going forward, to try and encourage the game?

With Upcoming promos it will mean cash players/ sit and go players will need to grind for 20 hours instead of the standard 16 hours, given they will not be able to have the same table count.

How do you think it's going to affect donttelmum at cash or master bates on Mtts or Timmy at dyms?

    This is news to me. Where can I find the announcement? Is it limited to 6 tables in total across all formats at any one time (MTT's/cash/SNG's etc.)? When does this become live?

    Personally, I think for cash games this is probably a good thing for the ecology of the site and hope that a better reg/rec ratio at the average table results from the change. Obviously pretty bad news for epic mass multi-tablers like donttelmum though.

    Applying this cap to MTT's seems a bad move to me though. Firstly, tourneys may struggle to make their guarantees as a result and secondly, it'll be really hard to plan a nights tourney grind when you obviously have no idea what you can play as it'll end up being subject to what you bust out of and when.
