Hi Rich, Steve or Jack

Would it be possible to ask the poker team if they would, for a trial period of 4 weeks put the 7pm and 7.30 pm deepstacks back into the shaded part of the lobby please (I guess this would be that great Sky Bernie:))

    Good plan - can the 7.30 deepstack revert to normal payout structure please as well?

    At the moment I am unable to play most nights between 8.00 and 9.00 so I dont feel its worthwhile me registering for a game that I can't commit myself to full time.  HOPEFULLY things will settle down in a few weeks and I will once again be able to play in the 7.00 games.

    The seven o'clock ten handed is dead as far as I'm concerned.  The lack of guarantee - the TKO donkfests, the TP stuff have kept numbers low.  I also prefer £10 min buy in and the only one left is the Wednesday Tikay Sleepstack which I have still been playing.  Deepstacks are great and so are ten handed tables but I don't get much motivation when the rewards are so low.  I was still playing the Momday 7.00 because the lure of having the following week's tournemnt named after me always lured me in.  However, Sky could not be bothered to maintain that as they kept forgetting to update the tournement name and have dropped it - obviously too high maintenance for them lol.

    Let's just all play TKO roulette and see how our game improves eh?

    Hey Barry,

    the poker team are going to attach a TV flag to this tournament. it won't actually feature on the TV but it should to help draw some attention.

    thanks

    EEERRRRR!! TV banner, but not on TV? Maybe i'm easily confused, will others be? Hope it works for all the effort that is put in, ta. But would'nt a high-lighted banner at top be better, as prev suggested.
    Anyhow good luck, will try to support it regular

    the poker team didn't want to dilute the effectiveness of the highlighted area by over packing it. they saw the 'tv flag' as a nice compromise


    hopefully that works for everyone and doesn't cause too much confusion.

    we can always review this in a couple of weeks and see what else can be done.
