    My first suggestion is to stay as you are Sky for now it is a top site with great variety, protection, advice etc, I know you have to change but slow down for now and let recent changes bed in.

    If i,m pushed for another two ideas it would be:   1. Nations League
                                                                          2. Female only tourney and male only tourney with two winners playing heads up

    how about a couple of 6 or 10 seat er tables where we can play with our poker points so we don't only have to play the freerolls to use them

    Apologies if missing something that alerady exists, but from a live chat conversation and from looking in history avaiable through my account don't think so...............

    Make an opponents cards visible after a successful (non all in) show down which you've won. In a real card room I'd always ask to see an opponents cards for maximum information and therefor would see what they've been calling me downwith. To deny you this is to prevent you from developing proper opinions on opponents or indeed giving you back the value in a "pay to see" bet on the end when confident you're ahead. Just lost to a guy who it turns out had called my preflop raise with 58 (and therefor on a 6-7-9 board i didn't bellieve his reraise all in versus my raised JJ preflop) - if had seen his cards I was beating at showdown earlier in the game may have known he was this reckless preflop and would possibly have reappraised situation.

    Like I say, apologies if missing something and there's a setting somewhere I need to play with - otherwise why not get this sorted and let everyone have the same info they would live, and allow us to utilise full armoury of skills/knowledge that should be at our disposal rather than kept in the dark and guessing what we've beat.

    Cheers.

    A different re-buy level competition


    level one      buy in   £1           1hour or min 50% exit      for novice
    level2           buy in   £4           1 hour or 50% exit           for the fisherman
    level 3          buy in   £8            1 hour or 50% exit          for i think i can win this
    level4           buy in   £16          1 hour  or 50% exit          for i know i can win this
    level5           buy in   £32          1 hour or 50% exit           the needy and the greedy

    Final buy in   £50 waiting list  max 50% of entries into level 5 or any amount of entries at level 5  till finish
                        "in it to win it pros)
    This will allow novices to gain experience,regulars can buy back in after a "BAD BEAT" and the better players can pay more "to clean up" and the pros can lose their reputations

    how about a poker handicap( like the horse racing) where the (proven)better poker players are handicapped with less chips than the poorer poker players?

    this is a silly one i know, but what about a "play of the day"........ any presenter can award this, it does what it says on the tin....... if the presenter reckons you played your hand perfect, you win a spot prize, cash or tourni entry maybe

    not sure how this would work with the no refund policy for losing connection, but there seem to be an increasing number of players who are entering multiple double your money sit and go touneys and not turning up to play, in the hope that 3 players will take a dive before they are blinded out. It is very frustrating and whenever I can I try to help out the shortstack who is about to bomb out to a blank seat. (Just call me the sit and go vigalante). It's not so much the players who are playing multiple tables and play occasional hands that are the problem but the ones who simply don't turn up at all.

    What about some low stakes ie £1.00 all in or fold sattelites for the bounty hunter or bigger tournaments.whereas 1 player wins a seat ...its fast and will get more players in...

    I know the freerolls have different prize amounts depending on day of the week, however they all have one thing in common. Blinds rise fast.

    Instead how about one freeroll that has a slow blind rise. Similar to ds. this would help introduce new players to this type of game.  Increase the points required to buy in if necessary, similar to the Friday night freeroll.

    Standard "After-Work" pub game.

    Slight variation on the "Last man standing"

    6 man 5 / 10 / 20 pound in winner takes all. Maybe 3000 chips 100/200 blinds which double every time someone gets knocked out, instead of the usual time limit. No prizes for 2nd place.
