Morning Guarantees on Sky

Essexphil

The traffic on Sky in MTTs early in the day (08:00-15:30) seems to have dropped off quite a bit, both in terms of guarantees and numbers of Tournaments. This is not meant in any way as a "dig" at Sky-guarantees are determined by traffic, not the other way round.

Possible reasons for this are:-

1. The poker market is shrinking generally
2. A lot of other countries can no longer play on worldwide sites. So (for example) I used to love playing on 888/Party in our morning/Australian drunk time, and would fire up some Sky MTTs at the same time. Other sites have been decimated in the mornings as a result
3. The morning players on Sky used to be a more friendly bunch. Don't get me wrong, most still are friendly, but there are 1 or 2 people (no names, please) who feel the need to commentate on everyone else's play. Doesn't worry me-I need all the coaching I can get!-but it is driving people away

I certainly don't have the answer. However, as I suggested before, might be worth trialling one week of a future "podium series" to try and rekindle interest.

Try some cash Phil take up the slack of the MTTs, don't mean that in any disrespectful way its just cash is soft in the mornings as well if you struggle finding MTTs on Sky.
