is it possible to do a iphone app so we can use sky poker when we are out and about and away from our pc's, be great to play online from asda when the wife has dragged you out shopping Liam
I like the idea behind your suggestion, that would be handy!
Unfortunately, this is a very big job at a big cost so it is not something that will be coming soon. Don't rule it out though, it may be here but I would be surprised if you see it in the next few months.
Sorry about that. You can always feign an illness to get out of the shopping!!
Can you run a comp for the world series of poker europe, like the viva las vegas comp, i think it would be great to have a team of us sky player in our home event, thanks Liam
Please could you tell me what happened to Tikays generous and brilliant offer of helping out NEWBIES TO LIVE POKER (or nearly new). I remember that there was alot of interest and i for one would still love to get some good advice on Live Poker from someone who has as much experience as Tikay. Any help would be most welcome.
You may be aware that I am an avid player of Tournamnts and have recently had a Thread going regarding the average standard or play.
In my humble opinion, increasing the blind rate from 5 minutes (obviously excluding fast promoted torneys) is an excellent improvement however by increasing from 5 mins to 10 mins you have effectively doubled the length of the tournament.
I playd a 30 seater today and final tabled at 3 hours. It then took a further 1hour 20 mins to win, purely down to blind rate and the amount of chips people had in front of them.
May I suggest that most people don't wish to play 4.5 hours in a torney therfore a Blind rate increase to 7.5mins may be more appropriate.
I don't need a reply as I am sure you guys are monitoring it and thanks for taking the time to read this.
Any chance of a decent hand hisory converter, so we dont have to post players names, and also our reads on them? You have to post reads to get decent replies and also its not fair to badmouth players on a public forum, or to tell the better players how you perceive them
What I would love to see on site is a timebank option. Sometimes the time allocated is just not enough for making key decisions in big hands. Personally I think this simple option would add a lot.
Somethings that might be easy to add to the site. I'd like coloured notes at the moment I have to open my note to remind what the player was about, good or bad. If it was a different colour I may not need to open all the notes.
Also a running total of all your poker winnings or losings. In my case it may read "today you have lost £20" I copy all the data in to a spreadsheet and I can work it out quickly but I thought it would be easy for one of the sky database folks to add it to the account page, then I might just learn some bankroll managment,
One last thing on my wishlist the ability to minimise the lobby sections so you could have 4 tables open and the lobby from a tourny your in down one side.
Thanks for the suggestion, we are monitoring blind levels all the time. At the moment, the structure is working across the board, however I have passed your suggestion on so any new developments we will let you know.
Hi Glimby7- We do not offer this option I am afraid. Part of the skill of our games its to make your decisions in the alloted time frame. This is used across the board and proves popular amongst our players. Sorry about that but keep your suggestions coming.
grantorino-Sorry about the delay in getting back to you. You can view your hand history in the 'My Account' section, however if you wish to get your hand analysed, you can change the names of other players to 'Villain' which is the general term for 'Anonymous' on poker forums.
Hi droid-Thanks for the suggestions. I have passed your comment on regarding the colour coded notes, I will let you know if it can be done. The suggestion about an updated win/lose balance is good, however it would require an upgrade to implement. I have forwarded your comment to see if they can do anything on the next build. Unfortunately, due to dimensions and screen resolution, we would not be able to add a 4-screen plus lobby action. Sorry about that.

Thanks for the suggestion.
We are looking at promotions for a lot of live tournaments coming up.
Unfortunately, we will not be running anything for this particular tournament this year but may be in the future it is something we will look into.
Thanks,
Jordan

Hey seen in lobby you have done sats into the GUKPT. Any chance you can sort sats into the UKIPT events in the future?
This is something we are looking into. Keep a look out nearer to the time.
Cheers,
Jordan
