not many players on this site during the day!! Posted by gaffer1976
What you have to remember is Sky Poker is a stand alone poker site, running it's own software. When you play on the majority of other well known sites, you are only using a "Poker Skin" which is associated to a poker network sharing a single player data base.
"Most online pokerrooms don’t have enough players to keep the pokergames constantly running. That’s why a lot of those rooms team up and form a poker network. The biggest poker network in the world is a "well known Network". All poker sites (or ‘skins’) on the "well known network" use the same software, offer exactly the same games but share the same player base." So it looks like they have a bigger player base than they actually do and some of those players are from all ends of the world, not just the UK.
I can think of the 3 biggest sites right now that have their own skins. Not that this means anything and has nothing to do with the op, was just replying to an earlier comment.
Sky only operates in the uk so obviously the player pool is going to be much smaller than other global sites. If you don't like it then move elsewhere. Each has their pro's and con's, and it's good to have the choice between all :-) yeah that's right americans i'm having a dig at u here
