    What did you think of the series?

    Didn't get to play any of the events, but the feedback I've seen on the site and people's comments has been mostly positive.

    Would you like to see another UKOPS in the first few months of 2012?

    Would love to see another series and hopefully take part next time around as well.

    What should we do differently next time?

    Possibly include a cheaper event (Maybe £11 buy-in?) so that players with smaller bankrolls can buy in directly. A large field which this event would would also work well with the 2-day event idea in a previous e-mail.

    I would also like to see something other than 6 max televised, too.

    Which was your favourite event?

    I enjoyed the high roller coverage most.

    What was your highlight of the week?

    The Tikay programme before the high roller, especially Orford getting smacked by a stray branch :)

    Which part of your game has the series highlighted as your greatest assest / biggest flaw?

    Didn't play so can't really answer.

    ---------------

    Also, how about a UKOPS "bracelet", which would be like a trophy on all of your forum posts if you win an event? :)

    Well done SKY - great UKOPS

    best things about it

    1. tv coverage
    2. real money - with great opposition (ie not a lot of fish) - so real play not a casino

    what next - you need to do some more high stakes events really quick - players now have the taste for it and you don't want them playing away

    You missed Richard Orford.  Oh, wait, I think he missed the 7pm registration time.

    That yoyo chap could turn pro at this rate!

    As for the UKOPS on Sky, it has obv been a huge success and it is really good to see a mix of players cashing in them. Some smaller BR players and high rollers have done well so far.

    I only played one which was the Deepstack and finished just outside the cash but enjoyed the game, if not the result.

    Evening guys,

    I've missed most of tonight sadly but catching up now and currently railing Gliterbabe's/Thewy's table. Sadly haven't had a chance to play any UKOPS events because I've been busy doing my challenge grinding DYMs and aint been able to commit the time to long MTTs.

    Can you guys believe Del560 is now up to 40 DYM wins in a row, to top the world leader board on behalf of Sky by an absolute mile!
