Hi Destiny,
Sorry, I was Offline yesterday, so it's a bit late now.
I can't actually help with questions of this nature, I'm afraid, the only route is via Customer Care.
I gather there were some Technical Issues yesterday - good timing for me to be Offline! - so I hope you got sorted out in the end.

Hi bigred147,
Please see my reply to Destiny.
The answers given by MereNovice would have bween pretty much the only answer I could have given if I had been Online I'm afraid.

Hi Tikay thanks for result on post of 27th. would be good to know thoughts and comments on 1st situation and multiple blind due to table reallocation. Posted by cullen53
Hi cullen,
I have not forgotten, I'll try & reply to your PM over the weekend or on Monday. I have actioned it & I have had a reply from Upstairs.
I'm afraid I'm snowed under with PM's at the moment. I was Offline yesterday, so the pile has got even bigger, but I'll get back to you soonest.
As you all know, I try to answer any & all questiions on this Thread, but I'm not actually authorised or supposed to answer questions on Technical matters such as this. Be that as it may, I'll never ignore such questions, & I usually send them Upstairs for comment & action.
Tikay what constitues a beginner for the beginner only tables? I've noticed your number 13 player in the overall league on there and thought that they can't be a beginner?
It doesn't bother me having good players on there but I feel sorry for total new guys who get a whipping and probably never come back.
Hi Tikay I am pleased to see the thread you referred to earlier has been removed. I put the person In question's name forward quite early on In the thread but unfortunately got no feedback. I was amazed he was not on the list. Was he aware of this I hope not.

I have no idea Tia, I hope he was not aware of it, obviously. It was clearly an accidental oversight, no question about it, but I'm a bit of a soft so & so, & people's feelings count for a lot in my book.

Hi Hobbes,
I was not aware there was a "Beginners League" to be honest, Leagues are a bit of a blind spot for me, I don't ever see them really.
I would agree with you that Beginner's deserve some help, & not be belittled, but I'm quite surprised there is a "Beginners League". If there is, & I'm in it, perhaps it's a reflection of my current Form, which is dire!
Played in the £1000 guaranteed last night and went really steadily for 45mins, small blind to my big went all-in, I had AK, he turned over pocket 6's and I missed completely, was this a bad call or will it pay off eventually, it didn't knock me out but it put me really low stacked and I went all-in with 44, 2 callers who checked it to the river and my 4's got counterfeited by 77 and 88, they both had A kicker to the queen on the board!. Been playing since Feb last year and am slowly learning, can you suggest any books to improve my game? Qualified for Newcastle next week so see you ther

Hi
Personaly I would push with AK (you can push with any 2, but it needs a good hand to call), but would very rarely call unless I had the odds to do so, if you are against a big PP, you are going to be about at best against JJ about a 40% underdog, so why put your tournament life on the line? wait for a better spot and get your money in first.

It's been pointed out to me by a good friend (to whom I now owe about 4 PM replies - sorry!) that I misunderstood hobbes Post.
Apparently the Post referred to someone else in the Beginners League, not me. Phew.....
But he does confirm (I don't know how I'd cope without him), that there is NOT a Beginners League on Sky Poker.
I have to go into Rehearsal now, but I'll reply later Mr Hobbes Sir.

Will there be another "Tikay Orford" challenge?. The last one was awesome.
There is another challenge, but it is not Richard who team tikay will face
