    Would it be worthwhile having this answer at the top as a lot of people ask this question...

    @Essexphil,

    Maybe, but they ask the questions on different "Boards" each time, as they are unfamiliar with how the Forum works - this one is in Poker Clinic for example.

    I'm more than happy to answer each time they ask though.

    Fair enough.

    There needs to be a serious pruning of the Boards, mind. There appears to be 19 boards.
    Because this is indicative that newcomers find it impossible to navigate...

    @Essexphil

    Yes, that's very fair comment.

    I've been tinkering under the bonnet to see how best to do that, so I'm hopeful that I can prune it quite soon, I just need to be careful I don't break anything.

    Thankfully, Forum traffic is extremely strong at the moment, so I need to proceed carefully.

    Would it be possible for the default setting to be "Discussions" rather than individual boards?

    If only, I think that's by far the best way of doing it, as it keeps all the Posts from every Board at the top. Not sure I can do that though, but we shall see, I'm looking at it.

    the question was, "can you create a private table"., perhaps the question was can Sky Poker create a private table/game, as in add it into the software etc for it to be possible. it wasn't a question of whether its on offer or not, rather than can it be possible. I personally would love to see this, especially with this lockdown in effect. lots of pub poker leagues missing out on poker nights with friends etc. I know pokerstars do this, it would be a good feature for sky poker to introduce , more business and new players may like skys format and stay for many years to come. im sure the wisdom of a true gent like Tikay could petition for this, fingers crossed

    @benhur7200

    My wisdom or otherwise won't help I'm afraid, as the Business has no plans to add such a feature to the current platform.
