    + chat room pre tourney for players to chat in

    + Money exchange feature, so you can lend your mate's money via the site. This is common on other sites.

    + Forum gradings for people. So you post 1k + you get a certain status, etc etc down to entry level members. I.e Platinum down to bronze. Maybe then you could use these rankings for Specific tournaments. E.g. Platinum Member MTT (whether they are freerolls or pay to enter wouldnt matter - principle would be they would be exclusive to the grading of the Community Members and Sky would put some bonus prizes into the mix, the higher the grading the better the prizes). The beauty of this idea is that I think it would encourage more people to post on the Forum. how you wuld get the invites sent out? hmmmm PM system so you have members in each categorys mailing list, password protected tourneys. You could then also go one step further and have the different member levels having private areas within the forum etc etc... Forum membership levels gives quite a lot of room for futher ideas I think.

    HOW ABOUT A TORN ON LINE FOR IRISH, THEN WELSH THEN SCOTTISH THEN ENGLISH.. TOP 20 FROM EACH HOME NATION TORN THEN PLAY A LIVE TORN TO DISCOVER THE NATIONAL CHAMPION..

    BUY IN  FOR SKY TO ARRANGE AND VENUE BUT YOU CAN ONLY WIN YOUR SEAT TO FINAL NO BUY IN 4 THAT ALLOWED.

    IM THINKING 25.00 SATELITE

    TOP 20 OUT OF 100 SO 1 IN 5 GET NATIONAL FINAL SEAT

    1ST COME 1ST SERVED

    I think we could do with some ladder games.  E.g the ones available on other sites but not here (that I've seen anyway!)

    Rung 1 - £1 + £0.10 buy-in, 1st gets rung 2 entry, 2-4 get rung 1 entry. (10 max sit n go)
    Rung 2 - £7 + £0.70 buy-in, 1st gets rung 3 entry, 2-3 get rung 2 entry, 5th gets rung 1 entry (10 max sit n go)
    Rung 3 - £55 +£5.50 buy-in, 1st gets rung 4 entry, 2-3 get rung 3 entry, 5th gets rung 2 entry (10 max sit n go)
    Rung 4 - £430 + £43 buy-in, 1st gets £1935, 2nd gets £1419, 3rd gets £946 (10 max sit n go)

    Could also do the same with 6 max tables I guess but only offer winnder each time a ticket to next level and 2nd place a retry, e.g

    Rung 1 - £1 + £0.10 buy-in, 1st gets rung 2 entry, 2nd gets rung 1 entry (6 max sit n go)
    Rung 2 - £5 + £0.50 buy-in, 1st gets rung 3 entry, 2nd gets rung 2 entry (6 max sit n go)
    Rung 3 - £25 + £2.50 buy-in, 1st gets rung 4 entry, 2nd gets rung 3 entry
    Rung 4 - £125 + £12.50 buy-in, 1st gets rung 5 entry, 2nd gets rung 4 entry
    Rung 5 - £625 + £62.50 buy in, 1st gets £2625, 2nd gets £1125.

    Gives people a reasonable shot at turning a pound into a considerable amount of money!

    Oops got some of the figures slightly wrong as trying to play deepstack at same time, but you get the idea! (Hopefully).

     How about some satellite's for the EPT  , or some of the events that "InPoker" cover..?
     
    After all its  the Sky team covering these events but  Sky aren't  running any satellite's to get players into them ... To be honest I'm not that  interested  in InPoker  the presenters  are talking about players from other British  onlinepoker sites but I would be interested  if say, the commentators were saying , our own Gregghog or Dazzler  or Flashflush or anyone who plays here at Sky....wheres the interest  in these shows when this site isn't interested  in getting players to these events 
    Come on Sky give your own loyal players a chance to get in these event !!
    Run some satellite's to play in a big satellite  to get some of your own players to the InPoker event or EPT ...

    right I'll get off my soap box now, I don't usually have a moan but is anyone really interested  in what James or Rich and TK are saying, without giving Sky players a chance to be where  they are !

    I'd quite like to see the odds of winning nxt to each player during an all in situation.  something that is on other sites so i would imagine it could also be added here.  it can also be helpful in educating players about thir hands value.

    A second idea that i've seen elsewhere is the revealing of the next community card after the hand has ended.  This is pretty trivial but when you deliberate over a call with multiple outs but choose to fold, it is fun to see whether you would have hit one of them.

    I think that a live studio event would be good.  Maybe have satellites to a single table ten seater deepstack with Tikay getting an automatic seat.

    Have the presenters of the live tourneys dress up on theme nights. So on Halloween Rich O could dress as a zombie (not much to do for make-up there),  At Christmas Tikay could dress as an elf, on St Patricks DP could be e leprechaun, at Valentines Ed could wear his thong, and during Crufts Michelle could dress as a dog.

    some of us are not church goers!!and enjoy a bit of old school sky banter from back in the day!!
    when you could have a bit of a laff and light swearing !!which was took with no offence.
    maybe sky should think of putting up cash tables named banter tables where as the likes of the common lower class worker like myself that like's abit of a laff and some good old banter can play knowing they arnt going to get reported!!! and chat banned !! because only players that wouldnt be offended would sit there !!

    This should be pretty easy to implement... On the "My Tables" page, a column that shows finished position.. You have name of tournament, buyin, amount of runners etc.. but would be beneficial to have this so you can see at a glance which tournaments you are performing best in
