that very seldom if any happens in live poker sky poker is completly different.think about it thev got 200 runners in a tourny they cant go on all night so in my opinion its fixed so so many runners get knock out in a certain amount of time dont care wot sky say or who ever sticks up for them but its trure av been on this site for 5 years and im not the only 1 who says this although a would say its the best site av played on just my opinion lol Posted by cinnanati
No that's what the jobs of the blind increases are sir....to make people get knocked out.
Also it doesn't matter at all to sky how long a tournie goes on for. In fact they probably want people grinding tournies on here more, as they may play blackjack roulette or cash games on the side.

why?...do sky players have to get to bed before midnight incase they turn into pumpkins?...............pokerstars have tourny's that get 30/40k runners and last up to 24 hrs....

lol serves you right for beating me ........its a fine line between winning a tourny and crashing out,mant times i have looked back and thought "if i had won that hand i would of won the game".........on the flipside i have gone in behind at a crucial time and won then gone on to cash/win......gl next game....and wp!

Why cant they go on all night, they haven't got a man sitting in the office waiting to go home but can,t because a tourney is going on. Lots of people get knocked out at similar stages because of the blinds and circumstances such as straight after the bubble . I will never understand that if you really think SKY are doing this why have you been playing on here for 4 years and why do you think its the best site . And why is there a "lol" after "its just my opinion" are you saying you dont really believe what your saying or am i missing the funny bit.
Sorry I expressed that wrong. The odds are the same obv. What I meant was that the games tend to play a bit more passive....a lot of live players don't even like getting in KK AIPF. Posted by scotty77
Probably the daftest thing I've ever heard you say
In Response to Re: Crazy hands, would the same happen in live poker!!! : Didn't something like this happen on the cash table at SPT Cardiff last year? I think Thewy and The Don were on the same table and something similar happened... Posted by Sky_Dave
alls i can rememer of that table was me folding every hand for 6 hours. Although the odds of that happening again i would imagine are even rarer than being delt aces 4 hands in a row.
Hello dave, when i said crazy player didnt meen nothin by it just ment u were playing lots of hands, but i do remember u showing alot of big hands so understand y u were playing alot. I didnt start this thread as a complaint on skypoker, out of the poker sites av tried once i started playing on sky poker i have never went on any other site, good poker and freindly community, u get the odd priiick lol. Not played much live poker so was just wondering if this kind of things happen live also.
In Response to Re: Crazy hands, would the same happen in live poker!!! : for someone to have them consecutively,it would mean that AA was the first hand,so each subsequent AA is @220-1.. so there fore the odds of getting it 4 times consecutively are 1x220x220x220... but however if we were to ask what are the odds on the next 4 hands being AA your calculation is correct.... but the odds on getting AA 4 times in a row are 10,648,000 ( for any PP 4 times in a row.)

Forget the odds
Did anyone get the dealers name?
I want to sit at their table if I ever make an SPT!
I started a new post earlier without seeing this one. i can't play on a site anymore when you are worried about good cards. Got beaten and took online abuse earlier from someone that can't be described other than horrible and the worst kind of winner. I take my cards and play the ones i think are wothwhile but head to head with a bully QQ 88 QK Suited and AK suited get beat with something that should be in a bin it's too much i am going to the pub and put £20 in a fruit machine it's fairer!!!!!!!!!!!!
