I personally think it's a good indicator but necessarily a true reflection.. I rarely use to be honest but I just scoped my sit and go stats... Hmmmmmm, no way is that ever right.....
Hey Matt, I pay $9.99 for 200 searches on skope. I'm not sure what the alternative deals are but the 200 normally last me about 2 months. You still get the 5 free searches a day on top of this, & it allows you full access to all the stats same as a monthly subscription. I play only HU sngs, maybe if you play dyms you use more searches (play against more players) but the 1 off payment is definitely best for me & well worth it for a tenner (less than a buy in) Posted by DOHHHHHHH
Nice 1 m8. This probably looks the best way to go, especially after reading mp33's post at the top of the page. I would never use 500 searches a month. Cheers for the info
150 per day is best value, very useful if your serious about your poker, wouldn't be without mine, can pay for itself several times over if you play a lot of STTs.

Cheers for the post. Unfortunatley it's not as accurate as we would all like, however as u stated it could be used for a general indication. Might buy the 200 searches dohhhhhhh mentioned and see how much use i get from it.

Alright gary. Got quite a bit of time on my hands at the moment, so will defo try to improve my game and take it more seriously. And i do play a fair bit of Sngs so will probably have to invest in it.

Worth it for STT/DYM, helps in identifying winning regs and absolute fish )
You can narrow your search just for DYM for example - allllllllllllriiiiiiiiight

I think it depends on the level, personally at £3.30 you can see who the bad players are fairly quickly, just anyone who limps after say 25/50,50/100 probably ain't gonna be too good. Likewise players who never limp at high blind levels and hardly ever get involved are good players, not rocket science lol.
If you however play at £11/£22 and above then it might be worth it but again there really ain't that many REGS and those you do see you will get to know soon anyway just by being on so many tables with them.

Just lets you tag players from the start......
Minimum seacrhes of 150 is perfect imo, very cheap

At the start you should generally be playing VERY few hands, in my case only raising with 5 lol so leaves plenty of time to sit and watch the other guys and see what they do.
Also as for REGS at £3.30 I'd say there's about 5 guys I don't want at my table maybe 1-2 more but after them plus me its pretty much all RECS who limp every hand and try and knock eachother out.
But yet again as you move up the REG to REC ratio gets less favourable and then it might be more valuable but even then just cus a REC guy plays 22 smackers for his DYM instead of 3 bob doesn't mean he danny limp and get it in at 10/20 w/AJ just a case of the guy has more to burn but he's still making the same mistakes as lower level guy.
sharkscope doesn't distinguish between cashing in your profits and big loss although I guess you can work it out from the graph, but I assume it effects your overall form rating?
Sometimes (meaning once that I know of) SKY has a glitch and "losses" a result. I had a £600 cash in survivor, which was a big result for me, but it didn't appear on sharkie. When I looked into my account on SKY, I could see it in transactions - but not in a poker search. Customer Services looked into it but couldn't work out what was wrong - and as my cash was there I gave up trying to get it fixed. Only noticed it because it was so big - don't know if it happens more often under the radar. Posted by GELDY
I'm 99.9% sure Sky Poker don't provide anything to Sharkscope. Sharkscope scrape the data from running lobby pages.
If Sharkscope has a technical issue and don't record a final lobby update that's a problem with Sharkscope and nothing to do with Sky Poker.

I raise, that 99.9% is in fact 100%.
If you are unhappy with the stats shown on Sharkscope, go to their Home Page, then "Options", where they give their contact address.
Although the cash arrived in my sky account, and appears when I search transactions - it never appeared in my sky list of poker activity. So I am not surprised that Sharkscope didn't see it as poker activity either - although it may be totally co-incidental. So I still stand by this having been a Sky glitch, unless you can convince me that Sharkie has/had a problem with the Survivor tournament.

It may be that Sharkscope choose to totally ignore the Survivor event. It would be quite complex for them to acquire the information from the Sky lobbies. Like tonight they will not know without going back a day at a time if the 50% of the field who are eliminated have lost £1, £16 or somewhere in between. And on Saturday everyone who cashes may have bought in for a different amount.

No they do, say you lose on Tuesday but started on the sunday:
Winning the sunday game will count as £1 profit
Winning the Monday game counts as £2 profit
And losing the Tuesday game obv counts as a £4 loss therefore a net loss of £1 which is correct.
These would have been a big problem before satellite wins were counted as cashes which was only changed a couple of months ago.
