Why does sky spoil so many games by dealing the cards to suit themselves. Players on sky poker will never develop and learn because sky manipulates the hands, Let the cards be dealt at random.

    No idea. This person seems to post occasionally with that name as a Headline, together with the usual erudite, well thought out criticisms.

    He has previously been asked of he was referring to Dave Colclough, which would be particularly offensive. No reply.

    Ahh yes, good spot.

    I don't think he can be referring to Dave Colclough, as one of the headlines was "David Murray Colcomb". Oddly, the post was near-identical, almost word for word, to the latest one.

    There was also this one...

    The OP has been here 4 years & played over 12,000 games. It's quite beyond my understanding why anyone who thought the site integrity was moody would continue to play here. Another of poker's great mysteries.


    Maybe when he has a bad day at the tables he needs to vent, though his last 8 games were all £0.25 DYM's of which he won 4 & lost 4, so that does not sound like a bad session.

    Another oddity is that I always reply to him - politely - but he never responds.

    He's got a point, Sky cards are never dealt at random, they always deal the flop first, then the turn, then the river, every time, without fail. I think it would be more fun if occasionally they dealt the river first, then the turn and then finally the three flop cards. Wouldn't that be entertaining?

    p.s. his last session left him 24p down, due to rake, he has a right to feel betrayed, that's like a Mars bar (multi pack, not full sized), or 1/4 of a daily paper, or enough sheets of a bog roll to at least have a dump. Outrageous.

    The cold hard reality of poker for most of us. It's not all the glamour you see on YT.

    You missed the fact that the R.N.G. arranges that the Cards you fold make a Full House on the River. Then when it's your next big blind you get 7 2 off someone goes allin. hic!

    Seems to play 28p dyms the most. Cant believe sky have stooped as low as fixing 28p dyms now, just so they can pocket the 18p rake... oh wait a minute, they get that no matter who wins

    The 28p turbo's are the hardest games to win on here.

    You can hear laughter from under the table when your Ace's get cracked.

    Be good if some other players contributed, instead of the same tea club barely reaching double figures.... least you acknowledge 'its yet another player saying the same thing' and that hes 'racked up alot of games'.... kind of key info....
