    The one thing i don't get with the Rigged comments is this............. WHY WOULD SKY BOTHER??????

    The same rake is paid to Sky no matter the outcome of the hand so why would Sky or any other poker site for that matter rig the outcome? Im not convinced that Multi Million pound business would risk alienating there entire playing pool in order to ......................acheive NOTHING lol

    now into the point of player bots... I have no evidence that these don't exist and im not playing against them but i ask myself this question. "if i had a sure fire way of beating players and earning money without lifting a finger....... would i put that bot to work on the 5p / 10p stakes??????".........errrrmmm i think not lol

    I moan and probably more than most but one thing im sure of is that the site is not rigged :)

    I love area 51, personally it needs moving up the list. Always good for a laugh and if you don't agree with them, the abuse always cheers me up.

    It's just like turning a key in their back.

    I like to look at their post count, 99% of the time it stands at '1' sometimes up to 2 or 3 if they have replied calling you a brainwashed idiot.

    You can spot most of them a mile off, they usually talk in txt spk.

    I was thinking. It's really very good of Sky to allow some of it's players to allude to the legality of the core business.

    Can we imagine BT or British Gas having an open forum on their website with customers openly criticising them.

    Fair play to Sky for allowing open debate.

    X1..............but we should keep it secret, too many sane people in area51 might take the edge of it.

    Couldn't agree more. If British Gas did this it would have more hits than Google.

    Haha yes! but it could also improve it business. (though increasing costs probably isn't what they want).

    Now I think a much more topical company to have a discussion on is Royal Mail - now imagine their site being used by customers and staff lol
