    was gonna play in that torunie but pointless now.

    currently in the 400gtd that started at 12 and with 18 left this could be cut off mid tournie.

    Why do they put up tourneys when they know the sites going to be closing?

    Also what does happen if you do get cut off mid game? Refund?

    Other sites are available....some do 24/7.

    Monday morning could have a few threads to sort!

    The whole place has gone to ruin without Irish, Baz and Sky Rich...

    For a company the size of Sky, the mind boggles at the level of service and organisation on this site sometimes.

    Once before the site was going down for essential maintenance at 11:45pm!! I was in a tourney which cost £4.40 to enter, over hundred players and started at 8:15. The pop ups were going every 10 minutes from 9pm and at 11:55 there were two of us left, i cant be exact but the blinds were something like 10k/20k and chips were like140,000 v 160,000 and was going back and forth for 5 minutes when it went down, i was second and got about £80 and the other guy got about £120, which was the amount the lobby stated, which peed me off lol, so i would say that if your in the money say top 20, the payouts would be as per lobby and as per position when closure occured, is this fair? probably not but thats the way they do it!
