Sky Poker 'Tournament' tickets QUERY

With regards to the weekly poker tournament tickets awarded via the Sky Poker Rewards, I have noticed that they are now included in your Sky BET's 'FREE BETS AVAILABLE' total.

My question is - Is this by default now going forward or has there been a glitch in the system ?

Poker tournament tickets and Sky Bet free bets were always separate in the past.

    Sorry for the delay in replying, Alan.

    I'm told this issue is being sorted. I don't have any further detail than that I'm afraid.

    I noticed that the other week after I had used my weekly sky poker token to reg a tournament then unregistered it.
    It appeared to show as a free bet option, however it soon sorted itself out and was no longer visible on sky bet.
    Not sure if it could actually be used in the interim.

    I've no idea Alan but I will try & find out.

    What are the pros & cons of it being included (or not) in the Sky Bet "Free Bets Available"?

    Thanks for the reply.

    I will be honest with you, I am unsure of any pros or cons to it. Placing a £5 free bet on Sky Bet is quite easy and user friendly to do. Click a box of what 'ticket' you want to use on what bet and away you go. I have often wondered why the same logic is not used for tournament tickets on Sky poker. Probably some issue behind the scenes which could be the reason why.

    My initial query is whether or not this might have been an administration error when issuing poker tournament tickets. FTR, I have two £2.30 tokens on my sky bet among quite a few of the £5 ones.

    I honestly don't know Alan - but I guess we'll find out next Monday.

    I would say yes. I have two £2.30 SKY POKER tokens in my promotions page of my account. I have just tested if I could reg for a dym and the box still comes up with ' use freebet tokens? ' prompt.

    A development on this....

    The option to use these 'poker' tournaments on Sky Bet is no longer applicable. They are still there but are now grayed out so cannot be selected.

    £2.30
    65 days 2 hours left
    Cannot be applied to selection(s)
    £2.30
