Hi I had a good session this afternoon and won £50 on 1 20nl table, now the funds for that table have been held!

Any reason for this??

    Brag post disguised as a question imo.

    They used to do it all the time to me, not so much anymore.

    Standard, dw about it, unless u have something to hide, then worry....

    But to sum up, dw.

    In Response to Held funds?:
    Sky Poker has the right to hold any, and all, of a Player's funds indefinitely as a precautionary measure whilst we perform routine checks for fraudulent activity. Fraudulent activity may include, but is not limited to, stolen credit cards, transfer of funds to other Player Accounts (chip dumping), forgery, collusion and the provision of false information.As a precautionary measure we will hold all Poker winnings for a period of 24 hours. During this time you will not be able to cash out these funds, nor will you be able to use these funds on any other Sky Bet product. However, you may use any, or all, of these Held Funds at any time to continue playing at Sky Poker.
    Its just somthing that Sky does randomly, it unlikely to be anything you have done..

    They hold your money to go and gamble with in the casinos, so yeah don't worry........i'm sure they won't lose it, well not all of it anyway.

    It's because you've won a large amount they check/hold it to look over and make sure you haven't cheated in some way

    Oh I don't know,  a lot of people take money from him because of things he's done, chasing flush and straight draws,   betting the river with top pair on a straight , flush board.  that sort of thing ;o)
