yes I would be annoyed but it would be a far greater loss to my income than it would be to most on the site.
one thing that I was surprised that Sky cut was the free entry tournie for people who made between 250-499 points and think that that should be reintroduced but Sky obviously hvae their reasons and they know far more about the business than I do...

Tyvm for ure reply and tho obv a bit annoyed with the new system i know sky is a business so i obv have to take it on the chin , along with others , i mean at end of day do i really wanna play anywhere else ??
One last session in. Pretty standard session. Not sure how much I can get in tomorrow. Gonna be busy until 7/8ish. Hope to get another 2.5kish tomorrow tho.
Would really like a crack at this, but pretty sure it's beyond me.
Got a couple of days away with the missus later in the month, plus the £500 deepstack at DTD next weekend, plus 2 kids etc.....
Think the most I've ever done is 28k points, so it's a lot more than I've ever done before.
I like a challenge though, so going to put in some volume first 4 or 5 days, see where I stand then, and make a decision on the rest of the month at that point.

Totally agree, I wouldn`t want to play elsewhere, but I am concerned that Sky do not go the same way as another UK site that was independant until a couple of years or so ago before it gave in and signed up to a commercial skin to the site`s detriment IMO.
Played for a bit before I am off out. Wish I hadn't. Minus 350 session.
Lost a big big pot with Runitsrann. KTo is such a silly hand just fold pre next time Ryan. Here's the hand. If Rann raises turn I prob fold I just couldn't see how the guy who shoved turn can have a set here hence why I went all in and there was Mr Rann sat there behind with the #nuts. MBN
decided to stop being lazy and have a go a this, think im at ~1800 after day1. going to try and 12 table ~6hrs a day focusing sessions around the happy hours, although this means 1pm start which is quite early!
what you have said about getting to turn/river not knowing whats gone on previously i can relate to that sooooo much, used to think i was pfr and just donk lead loads of times and get myself into a right mess
Personally i'm aiming for 18 or 22k, as these seem most proffitable under the new C4P system, can't use my sick day to help tho, sigh. Aiming for 24k or 26k seems pointless now under the new system, as i'd be down over £100+ on what i would have got as bonus pervious months.
My goal is to get back into Priority but, like Tommy, fear that the dreaded return to work may impact! This thread may help me perservere so gonna try my best with anything up to 100nl and all stake DYMs.
Im going to try and emulate what you do on a smaller scale, will sky give me an ipod shuffle or something .
Seriously, having moved over to lower stakes cash last week, ive decided to rack up my c4p this month on nl40 (until i start losing ). So far so good, on a massive heater, crushing the game and not many bad beats. In two days four tabling nl40 managed 1150 points. Normally I just scrape past 10k each month, this month 15k is acheivable at this volume. Ive also noticed that 16k pays out slightly more than the old c4p amount. If I can get 20k or above purely playing nl40 I will be beside myself.
The happy hours have been a great way of boosting points, long may they continue.
Just finished another profitable happy hour and c4p now totals 1298. I'm out for much of tomorrow will be interesting to see how much poker time I get.

No i think not
Gl with ure challenge scotty my dear xxx
After Day 1 C4P total 1392. Grand start but with work coming back to say hello tomorrow that pace will not be kept up.
January's target for me is 16k.
Target: 16,000
Current: 0

And target is priority club. Usually I make about 4000 a month from MTTs, so some way to go.
First couple of happy hours have each gone well with a profit and about 100 points each.
Currently 336 points.
