i would like to see the avatars change. i reckon it would make a more enjoyable, fun experience if the avatars were 3d and you could edit their appearance to personalise them. the rest of the site i think is great! Posted by emzybabe23
Please noo lol the reason why i chose sky in the first place is that the table layout is simple, i cant stand all the avatar animations and all that makes me feel like im playing the playstation lol, although i would like to see more avatar picture choices
how about a deuce seven rule on some cash tables! if u win with 72 either by bluffing or outdrawing or whatever all players give u like 4-5 bb's or something, could be fun!
In Response to Re: What improvements would you make to the site? : Time Bank - you make the point well, imo. It illustrates the problerm precisely - we all want a bit more decision time now & then, BUT......we all get miffed when Players abuse it. A double-edged sword, if ever there was one. On balance, personally, I prefer it "as is". Posted by Tikay10
why not just make a extra 10 secs and if used you can't use it again for 10 hands(cash games) or you get 30 secs per tourney and once its gone it gone so you could use 15 secs twice or 3 lots of 10 secs (you see my point) in one tourney it seems to work well on some other sites and we all need just a few more secs now and again to think what to do.
let the smaller stack win a hand for once would be a better idea im off ill be using my points for freerolls but sky aint getting another penny from me that gareth26 said when calling my all in with 104 c v KK its all a bit of fun well it aint when your unemployed getting 63 a week from the dole and someone calls with rubbish and hits now come in TK to tell me 60/40 kk v 104c or whatever its a sham especially when it pause to go get the death card xmas is a sad state of affairs with 2 kids this year Posted by kevywevy17
Assume you are buying entertainment and if you win its a bonus. Don't put money up unless you can afford to lose it.
I WOULD LIKE A CHAT ROOM SORT OF THING SO WE COULD ALL CHAT AT THE SAME WHEN YOU LOG IN AND INBETWEEN COMPS AND WAITING FOR YOUR TURN ON A TEN SEATER FOR EXAMPLE, U COULD EVEN HAVE SEPERATE ROOMS ,IE THE SHED ,INTODUCE YOURSELF. SEE WHAT YOU THINK OR ASK THE OTHER PLAYERS
I think satellite tournaments/sit & go's are a good idea. Would be nice to see some tournaments where players could use poker points to but into a satellite, where the winner would receive, for example, an entry to a Bounty Hunter tournament.
For example, you could start a 30 seater tournament, with a 50 poker point buy in, where the winner receives a seat to a £2 + 30p Bounty Huner of their choice.
Currently, there must be a lot of players out there, who have loads of Poker Points but nothing to spend them on, as there are only a couple of freerolls where they can be used at present.
1 major inprovement would be ...that im allowed to enter any tourny absolutly free, and that i can see all poket cards on the table ..Knowing my luck, i would still damm well lose!
WOOPS i forgot to add, that when you hopped to the next table ...you started with 500 chips again...so you dint get players with several thousand chips ...and had a massive advantage! Was really good fun!

I have an account here, but rarely rarely play, because the software client is so awful. Excluding those who multitable, having a tiny window on a modern PC with a monitor resolution of 1680x1050 or 1900x1200 is just unplayable. The software needs the table to be fully resizeable and a lot slicker - it looks like it was designed in 1994. Whether that is via a downloadable client or a simple fix to the Java code is up to SKY. But one advantage of the small resolution Java client is that it could be used on the latest Mobiles. A potential growth market is to ensure the client can also be optimised and is playable on iPhone, Android and the upcoming Palm Pre. Online Poker in your pocket from a trusted source could draw more people in. Hand Histories/PT compatability/more variations/timebank changes etc are all good and well covered already in the thread. But until the software is able to compete with the competition you will struggle to draw in more people. Posted by Oojamaflip
sky poker sux mate ...it always will....i play on other sites all the time now! Flash player poker is garbage!
id like dealer and aviator sound added,much more relistic than just the clink of chips. and plus you can hear whats going on if you pop off to make a brew. they have it on blue square. other than that I love the site i love playing in £ s i dont know of any other sites that do and iv tryed loads.

What does everyone think?

10p + 2p TRIPLE UP Gated to 18 seats ...all on the top table win and triple up!
Some of us ...me included arnt very well off...struggling artist here! But enjoy an S&G or MICRO tourney!
1 site i play on has a quadruple up ...10p + 2p Gated to 24 seats ...all win if end up on top table and quadruple up!
The tables are busy 24-7!
Try it ...it works and is very popular!
SirFrank!
I once played on a site where there were , say 20-40 tables, TOP 3 BUNNY HOP to the next table, then waited for other players to join that table!
Not sure how this would be organised, but was brilliant in the sense that tying to BUNNY HOP to the next level was real fun...good fun!
I wonder if you could work something out on that score! Oh and the starting stack was only 500 chips, so dint have to wait long! I loved it!
Cheap byin to!
So play was brisk!
thx! Sirfrank
Hope you think about it!
