In Response to Re: FAO TKP,THS AND TPT,AND ANY OTHER TEAMS I HAVE FORGOTTEN. : I SORRY BUT I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY COLLUDING WITH TEAM MEMBERS, WE ARE ALL IN IT TO WIN A PRIME EXAMPLE STOKEFC WHO`S TPT WENT ALL IN AND I ALSO TPT CALLED UNFORTUNATLY HE HIT, NOW COULD HAVE EASILY FOLDED BUT AS I`V SAID I`M IN IT TO WIN IT, SO IF A FELLOW TPT MEMBER GET`S IN MY WAY SO BE IT AND I`M SURE PLAYERS WLL SAY THE SAME Posted by spornybol
well of course you have to play hands against each other sometimes otherwise it would look suss!!!
anyway i did not say that you or any group of players were colluding, i said that it may look that way to people who are not in the know,and it may put people off..we are all here to make money for ourselves and if we scare off new players it gives us less chance of doing this...new players are generally poor players,poor players = VALUE AND PROFIT!!!! personally i want as many new players as possible and anything which may put them off is a bad thing for the site!!!
In Response to Re: FAO TKP,THS AND TPT,AND ANY OTHER TEAMS I HAVE FORGOTTEN. : i dont have any i am going on the basis that i have not seen a new face on the forum for quite a while,wonder why that is???? by the way evidence that they are???? Posted by jesusdog22

this may be the case but how do we know that many people have not left the site due to the team stuff hogging the forum??? also my post is regarding the teams and not the DTD thing,this sounds like it might be a good thing for new starters to get involved with,unless of course the team stuff completely takes over that as well!!!! does it???
Those in a team are happy, those not in a team dont like it......and never the twain shall meet This discussion is now closed Mod Alcoholic Posted by JAEGERBOMB
i am not bothered about that as such if i was unhappy about not being in a team then i would just join one,but i dont want to.because i dont want to i feel like an outsider as virtually every single post or thread is about this..if the forum is supposed to be for the whole sky poker commuinty then why does it only seem to be catering for the 'teams'

Team Stuff Does Not take over Forum DTD we are all Individuals chasing the Prize on offer while having Fun at the Tables also New People are joining in every Monday
post your suggestion in community suggestions section also....yes good idea for separate Team section........... let the suits look into it instead of everyone arguing rashly on this and other threads???? Posted by JAEGERBOMB
so the team threads are fine but anything else needs to be moved into another area??? seems pretty standard
AS JAEGERBOMB SAID WHY NOT SUGGEST WHAT YOU HAVE PUT IS THREAD IN THE COMMUNITY SUGGESTIONS TOO, AND SEE WHAT SKY SUITS SAY, AS A TEAM MEMBER I WON`T ARGUE WTH IT AS I AGREE, ALSO WE WOULD NOT ABANDON GEN CHAT, BUT DEFO LEAVE THE DTD THREAD IN GEN CHAT.
As the Captain of TPT (Team Poker Trev) I would like to make this statement:
New players to the site, might not be aware that quite some time ago “Sky Poker” introduced freeroll tournaments which were very much “Team Based”.
The very Popular “TKO” Series of online freerolls was team based. Then sometime after that they introduced more freeroll tournies that were team based. We had the “Blue Team” the “Green Team” the Yellow Team” the “Red Team” etc etc etc.
Teams are not new or unique to Sky Poker, it may surprise you, but it has been going on for quite some time.
The popularity of team events online has always been a success, however, I do agree we have had quite an explosion over the last few Months and maybe seperating the team threads could be a way forward. But as it stands, it's present interest, only cements the popularity of these types of online tournaments and in my opinion has inviggored what was becoming a lack lustre forum for Newcomers to Old timers.
In my opinion it helps new players get involved in the online community whilst the team spirit helps them improve their game and more importantly, it also helps to increase the entrants in the advertised events such as 7.15pm Deepstack, 7.45 Deepstack and the famous “Totty” (Take On Tikay).
I Would also Like to Say: Lets put one important misunderstanding to bed – The Forum DTD which is organised by DTWbandit and Scouse Red, takes place on a Monday Night consists of the three games I have mentioned above and was set up totally separate to any of the teams.
The whole purpose of the Monday Forum DTD is to generate involvement from NEW and Existing players and as anyone can see it’s popularity is going from strength to strength.
I made a decision to start my own team and use the Monday Forum DTDas a way of generating a little more interest to the said tournaments and community and help eleviate what can at times, be a very sole destroying night of playing online poker on your own, just a little more fun.
You don’t have to be a part of the Monday Forum DTD to take part in any of these tournaments, nor do you have to be part of any self constructed team. Everyone is entitled to play the game as they wish, but in my own personal opinion, I would like to see more people getting involved in the forum in whatever form pleases them as long as its not detrimental to the community or to individuals.
Take Part? - Don’t Take Part? – The choice is yours.
Separate It? – Don’t Separate It?
But Please! Please!……………for the sake of sanity, lets not spoil it.

Manchester utd,liverpool,the all blacks and the springboks These are all great teams,working hard for each other all in it together all sharing in each others success and sharing the rewards of that success. poker however is not a team game so why do we have so many pretend teams on this site,what is the point of it all??? it is very nauseating and boring the **** out of me are we all very sad and lonely individuals who need pretend online friends to fill a void??? does it make us feel wanted and accepted ??? Please explain because i dont know. Poker is a greedy individual game where you try to beat the **** out of every other player at the table.your winnings are your winnings and your losses likewise, if one of you won the sunday roller do you share it with all the other members of the team,i think not your not the hendon mob so stop all this nonsense and get back to being greedy selfish poker players.the way nature intended!!!!!!
