Apologies if I have missed posts or a thread already dedicated to this(?) but it feels like we he haven't had any recent information, concrete or otherwise, regarding the nature of Sky Poker's future since the acquisition(s) of Sky Bet by other parties.
I can understand an unwillingness to fix the crashing/disconnect/booted from client issues (which seem to have gotten an awful lot worse in the past few months for some people, myself included) with the current software if it is being replaced imminently. So, is that the case? Are we getting brand new, built from scratch Sky Poker software or are we getting new to us software from elsewhere? When is it arriving? Are we looking at weeks or months?
Any information would be greatly appreciated even if it's not possible to fully disclose all the details.
Thank you.

Hi @MynaFrett
That's a very complex question to answer right now, but I'm hopeful there will be some news quite soon. Sky Poker won't be going away, that's for sure.
The various Corporate changes have certainly muddied the waters somewhat, meaning prioritisation kept changing, but I think most of that is behind us now.
Lots of things have been happening, & The Suits have kept me in the loop, so fingers crossed a clear way forward will be made known quite soon.
Not the answer you were looking for, but please bear with them a little longer.
Ugh.
i love them ha!
" ... so fingers crossed a clear way forward will be made known quite soon ... "
I might be reading too much into that but it suggests that new/replacement software isn't in the can and ready to go imminently?
I'll tell you one fact tho - the Sky guys want better software, just like you, as soon as possible.
It would make sense to have them if poker were a game for pre-adolescents. Jeez, they do my head in.
i'm super confused, did stars buy skybet group and then merge with the paddy/betfair merger is that right?
That's pretty much the sum of it, yes.
I'm amazed so many folks like those throwables.
taking sick poker reads to a new level. when someone chucks poo on flop or turn after a big bet they defo have a flush draw!
