if you start at 9 pm and the premo lasts 4 hours plus wathing it on tv live would mean a long night , not been playing long is it possible to up the blinds or does this spoil the game; too many;times we hear watch wed to see the end when the final table is on spoils the night
On the sit n go front been less active since they reduced the 18 seaters, alot of people used to play these to get ready for the main tourney or even to fund it bring them back now please!
only played golf once 345 yards one hit straight in the hole second hole 378 yards one hit in the hole so i now play poker lasts longer AND NOT SO BORING
Taking away most of the live shows has had an effect on numbers, i used to play them all the time , most of the shows that replaced them are rubbish , pointless to most players. Cost cutting doesn't always pay in the long run, as sky are finding out.I know in this climate everybody is cutting back, but not a wise decision, i still enjoy playing on sky but i think its on the decline, fast. Can't see it being here in the near future if thing's don't improve.

I'm afraid that I dont agree with you that poker on Sky is in decline. Yes there has been a fall off on the number of people playing in a lot of the tournaments but I really do think that was down to the World Cup and the very good weather, however I believe a lot of those players are now coming back to the site. On Sunday the Primo had over 450 runners and last nights £22 Bounty Hunter had something like 550. It wouldn't suprise me that in another few weeks we once again see some of the tournaments getting 700+ runners and the old guarantees making a return.

Have to disagree with you, but i guess only time will tell. I actually hope your right .
In Response to Re: Online Poker Numbers Declining? : This, 10seater is the largest field!? Would be great to see some bigger sng, 27 and 45 runners would be good with 10min blinds, £1 - £5 buy in Come on sky, give us some multi table sng please! Posted by GoodReads
The only problem with this idea is that they currently get £1 & £5 MTT's during the day that get less runners than this, and i'm not talking about rebuys.

Some players don't want to enter a mtt not knowing if its going to get 20 or 200 runners, the positives of the sng is that you know how many you are against and what the prize pool is before you have entered
I'm sure some 50p, £1 45seater sng would fill up no problems
