Hi Tikay you LEGEND!!!!! Just wondering if its all possible for you to pull some strings and see if sky could open a betting book on on who will win the spt luton? Would be great fun!!!! Posted by macapaca
Good morning.
That's not really possible, I'm afraid, as the actual runners will not be known until several hours after the Tournament commences.
We have run a book on previous events from time to time, "specials" etc, but the level of interest was fairly low, & does not justify the resource needed to set it all up.

If there is such a thing as an Omaha BH, I've never played one!

LOL, I've never heard of a Omaha BH, but it certainly sounds a mad one
Has Sky Poker ever considered Step Tournaments? Sort of Survivor style, but rather than over 7 nights, they are more like an STT that when they are full they run Step 1 entry - £5 Step 2 entry - £10 etc etc Step 7 - pays out 1st, 2nd and 3rd Posted by SUPERSNEDD
Yes, they have considered them, & all sorts of other stuff.
Fear not, there is more than enough new stuff coming through, and the Timed Tourneys - which have gone down tremenmdously well - have barely settled down yet.

ooooooh look what I found lol
Start Date/Time16:40 - 26 JanCash Prize Pool£0Heads Prize Pool£0Buyin + Fee£2 + £0.30DescriptionThis is a Omaha Bounty Hunter tournament. Each player starts with 2000 chips with blind levels increasing every 10 minutes.
In Response to Re: Ask Tikay? : Mr Charlie! Post taken in the intended spirit, Sir, worry not. I doubt I've ever got needled by losing a hand of poker in my life, I leave tilt to the kids. I've taken a bit of a break from the nightly Online Poker since Xmas, as I have just moved house, & I need to sort the place out properly. I've also been getting up at 5am every day, as there's a lot going on in my day job with Sky Poker, so I'm a bit wrecked in the evenings. I keep an Online Diary elsewhere, too, & I've been very busy on that since Xmas, writing daily articles & all sorts of eclectic stuff, (golf, football, betting, wildlife, the properties of concrete, etc) which is a bit of a passion with me, I adore writing about this & that. I'll re-commence playing Online next week (am at Luton all this weekend), & I'll mostly be playing Omaha Cash, on 3 to 4 Tables per night, just 10p-20p, & 25p-50p mainly. Playing low stakes Omaha cash is terrific fun, I really enjoy it, so worry not, my money will be at your disposal again soon. So much to do, so little time.... Posted by Tikay10[/Q
yikes 5am starts rather you than me lol.
been on abit of tilt the last few days but tonight got most of it back, im determined to make my omaha a success & sticking with it.
any tips would be welcome & i PROMISE i wont hit quads again ha
Hi Tikay I am new to sky poker and like the community spirit very much. My question is this: is computer generated poker fullproof. The reason I ask is this, I played a hand of texas hold'em tournament on the 27th Jan 2012 (the game number was 470008981) I had Jack & King of Hearts, my opponant had Thee of Diamonds & three of Spades The community cards were nine of Spades, eight of hearts,three of Clubs,ten of Hearts & ace of Hearts, This gave me an ace flush & my opponant trip threes, The computer made him the winner why ?

Welcome to the forum Myra.
Tikay is not in a position to access your hand history from just a hand number. You would need to contact customer care with this type of issue.
Having played on the site for some years, I would say yes, the system is in this respect foolproof. So with respect I would suggest you double check your own hand history before contacting them. I would be interested in seeing it too. If you need any help with accessing your hand history, contacting customer care or how to post a hand PM me.
Quite new 2 sky poker ... was just wondering why are there different types off teams on this ... could u explain thanks Posted by Monday1294
A very good Tuesday morning to you, Monday.
The “Teams” are collectives of poker enthusiasts who just join together to add a little extra fun to their poker experience on Sky Poker.
You are free to join any Team you wish, (if they "accept" you), & there are several of them, including “TKP”, “Hit Squad”, “TPT”, “DYM Legends”, Team51”, & several others I believe.
They Rail each other, organise stuff, most of them have their own Facebook Pages & even Websites.
At the Sky Poker Tour Events, they wear “Team” Gear, & get together as a group.
I don’t belong to any Teams, that would be improper really, as I need to remain impartial, so it’s not for me to say which is the best Team.
I do have “honorary access” to the Team 51 Facebook page, & I must say, they organise themselves incredibly well. They run “Team Challenges”, poker coaching, poker mentoring, try to support those who cannot handle bad beats or are just running bad, & look after each other when illness or misfortune strikes.
I’m sure all the other Teams also do just as good a job, though I don’t have access to their Team Facebook pages, so I can’t say for sure.
I don’t get involved in Team stuff, except, on the Team 51 Facebook page, where I answer any questions & queries as to Sky Poker, & as it is not a Sky Poker page, I can speak a little more freely & openly to them.
I can highly recommend joining one of the Community-based Teams if you are a recreational player, they will be very helpful to you.
There is a “Team Talk” Page on this community, & it is HERE

Thank you for the information I will get on to customer care. In the mean time I have tried to copy & paste the hand to you, Sorry its a bit messy but you although you may not be able to see exactly what cards I had you can clearly see that they made up a flush.

jb840WinThree 3s960.00 960.00Hi Myra,
I'm still struggling a little to read that, sorry. Be assured, though, & as Penguin said, that the hand would have been correctly settled.
If you can manage to display the hand correctly, I'll happily comment further.
Sorry about that, but as Kiwi noted, this is the Poker Community, & for questions such as that, you need, in EVERY instance, to contact Customer Care.
