Why on earth do i have to pay juice on rebuys on sky?? I just played the £5.50 rebuy tonight and had to pay 50p for every rebuy and my add on. this is absurd and something should really be done about it. i have no problems whatsoever paying the entry fee for a tournament, but paying it 3/4/5 times in the same tournament is robbery! Please please sort this out.

thank you.

    It has been debated many times on here and the answer has always been "it is a business decision"

    there has never been any debate.


    for a good debate you need someone to argue in favour of raking rebuys. Thinking nothing of the sky customers is the only reason you'd do this. just another thing on the long list of things that need sorting.

    OK rephrased

    There have been several previous threads about this and the answer was "business decision"

    There won't be a debate because you won't get anybody in favour of it!

    Simple choice is don't play rebuys but the Fri Open and Sat Super BH seem to be well supported

    I would suggest that most players who recreationally play the odd 10 rebuy on sky will not be aware of industry standards to not rake rebuys and therefore do not realise just how peeved they should be at this stupidity.

    I also managed to play a tournament the other night on sky at 8pm which turned out to be a rebuy even though the big R was not by the tournament name in the lobby, that was marvelous.......

    nailed it!

    as for the arguement of 'dont play them' I personally really like rebuys, I play a lot on other sites and they are my favourite type of tourney to play. I would love to play them regularly on sky but if im paying juice on every rebuy it makes it really difficult to justify it. Sky has progressed so much since I joined a few years back, and with the upcoming re sizeable tables, late reg etc it will be up there with the best sites to play on, it seems utterly retarded to me that something like this is allowed to happen as a 'business decision' which IMO seems like a decision to mug their customers off and take more money than they are entitlted to!
