New software impressions
I apoligise in advance if this has all been discussed before and is a boring topic, but i haven't been on the forum or played cash on sky for a while and have just tried out the beta.
I have just opened 4 tables to test it out and didn't stay on very long. I think the old layout is superior and much easier to follow.
The action buttons were laggy and didn't respond very well, i actually ended up timing out with a set and checking top pair in a 3bet pot as a result of this.
I can't see how this is an improvement other than the much needed features such as auto top-up. It would be alot better if sky could just incorporate the new features into the old layout imo as this new software is not user friendly at all.
Once again i apoligise if this has all been discussed 1000 times before. This is just my first impressions of the Beta, i used to play a fair bit of cash on here and am looking to start again but i wouldn't want to stay if this is the only platform to play cash games, it's pretty awful imo.

Is it just me or do the hole cards seem to small when in mini view to. I mean i can see them just prefer the sizing as it is atm in mini
foldUFairy, there is a survey link, which we will PM you, where you can provide your feedback direct to the development team, as jams88 has mentioned, as there's some key information we need to collate from you. We genuinely want and will take into account all feedback, positive and negative, so that we can ensure we continue to improve the software to meet everyone’s expectations.
A good example is the size of the hole cards in mini-view which you mentioned Jams88, these are already being addressed and will be available within 24 hours.
We will be extending access to the new software to everyone on hold’em cash tables very shortly, giving all players the opportunity to use it and give us their feedback. At this point we will provide the mechanism for everyone to openly discuss the new software on this forum and we will be able to provide details on what we are doing to improve it, so watch this space for more info.
Everyone will still have access to the old software in parallel with the new software until we have got it right, plus we will continue to finalise tournament and Omaha support.
Best Wishes
The Sky Poker Team
It's on its way, but clearly its best to iron out any wrinkles first based on the feedback from the beta tests.
Ditto
