Renaming the £2,000 deepstack, The 2k Sky Rich Deepstack?

edited October 2009 in Poker Chat
Hi peeps 

As you know, I asked that the Saturday 10 Handed Deepstack be named after Sky Rich for the great work he does for the community he dearly loves. Things didn’t quite go the way I expected and it is asked that the Deepstack be named after me, obviously if Rich feels that is ok, I would be more than honoured (although more than a little embarrassed).
 I still feel Rich deserves recognition for the work he does, I therefore suggest the 2,000 guaranteed Deepstack be re-named The 2k Sky Rich Deepstack. Thanks once again community, you are fantastic.

    Hi Baz
    I totally agree with you about Rich, but if you do get a tourney named after you, i think you should have to pay doulbe to play it, hehehe
    Keep up your great contribution to this community m8.

    Hi Rich

    I seem to remember a naming competition for a deepstack, that was named after tikay, he exactly like yourself is an employee of Sky Poker, and exactly like yourself he very much enjoys, as he says he does not count it as a job.

    It was for the same reasons I decided that the deepstack be named after tikay for the work he does as I did for you and definitely feel you deserve. Hopefuly the community ityself will deliver the verdict on reading this, one already has.

    What do you think out there in Sky Poker land?

    I think that if a tournie was to be named after Rich, then it shouldn't be one of the flagship tournies.

    It would only make sense to forum users, so a lot of people would be confused by the name.

    One of the nightly deepies tho is def. a good idea, or even better maybe Sky Rich could just take down the weekly naming tounie :p

    +1.

    We tend to forget, in our own little world, that only a few % of Sky Poker Account Holders are Forum/Community Posters or readers.

    90% or so (I don't know the exact number) have never ventured onto the Community sectiion, so when naming Tourneys, this has to be borne in mind.

    yes i totally agree with tikay. and i think we shouldn't name anything after me. i have posted this before but....

    (thanks for the thought Barry - lovely idea. i really don't need or deserve any recognition for my work in this forum. this is my job and a job that i very much enjoy. the recognition should and needs to go to you guys (the users that make this community happen)


    plus i would feel a bit silly with my name on any of the poker tournaments. i really am not all that good at poker!

    however... i'm really hoping to learn a few tricks of you all in the SPT (sky poker tour - for those who haven't heard)

    can't wait to meet a few of you for real!

    TBF Rich, this is out of your hands. If there is a big enough call for it, we WILL get it somehow.
    So stop being humble and accept the praise and fellings of us all, if  not you'll get a horses head in your bed.
