£1 freezeouts.

waller02

Just wondering if Sky could add some (a couple would do) £1 freezeout mtts to the schedule. I'm thinking 2k Stack 10 min blinds. If you put a £30 gty on them then I'm confident it would be met, certainly during the peak period, around 8pm.

At the min there are only the deepstack and £25GTD rebuys at this level, not much choice.

Come on Sky £30GTD £1.10 freezeout (2k, 10 min blinds)........8pm. Trial it, please

i have asked for these in the past as they took away the speed one at 6.50. Even ones with no GTD would still get over 20 runners i am sure if run at half 6 and 8. Also a 1.15 BH would be good everynight

The 10.15 re-buy is a good tournament waller, a bit late but you'd enjoy it

Yeah have played it a couple of times, but I'm not a fan of rebuys really. That's why I was asking for a standard freezeout. Just the one at 8pm would do, I would certainly play it most evenings.

I've found if you start a thread or even make a direct plea to Sky Poker asking for anything other than Bounty Hunters or Rebuys you get one response.

Indeed!

People make the effort when sky ask for feedback............but when the boot is on the other foot???

I guess these mtts produce a lot less rake, so they just ignore it. MONEY>CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.

Look on the Brightside, we might get another one of those Cash promos soon, or a promo that fails to deliver what it promised like battle of the mains.

It would be polite for them to at least come back and explain why it's not possible. But to ignore a request is just rude.

You need to be in the inner circle for that to happen

21 ppl voting yes. The forum represents a very small portion of people who play on sky so the £30 gty should get smashed.

The old afternoon £20 guaranteed always met the guarantee, and ran well, also the £100 guarantee turbo at 1030pm was very popular and then Sky discovered rebuys, the rest, as they say, is history.

I suggest SNG's as an alternative.

In defence of the Sky Poker folks, this was posted at 4.55pm. It's likely that they were all on their way home.

Admittedly they don't always respond but I would guess that's because they don't have anything good to say. E.g.

Sky_Loner - "We appreciate your feedback but.... erm... No. We're not going to do that."


If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all. lol

Your comments are noted Mr Waller, as are all the other Posts.

The thread has been sent upstairs.

Whether you will get your wish is another matter altogether, of course. Running an Online Poker Site is immensely complex, & sometimes, as in this parrticular case, there is very good reason why they may not wish to accede to your wishes. Hypothetically, of course.
 
Everything is done - or not - for a reason. 

My Nan taught me that. Nan's are never wrong, except when they knit you a jumper for Christmas.

Thanks for the reply Tikay. I understand what you are saying, I'm not expecting Sky to add/remove or change anything in the schedule just because one person asks, I just thought I would put the idea out there and see if any other forum members were also keen.

walesboy

i think it would be a good idea
it would mean more choice at the low buy-in range
given that i currently have a 2nd job being a taxi driver for my kids in the evenings i'm not sure how many i could play but still it is a good idea
