Myself and Razorkev have decided to leave sky poker as we both think the standard is on a level as hilarious now.

Kev played 6 tournaments today and had AA KK three times AK AQ and JJ all beat by hands on his same stack like 94 beat him 4 times after he had raised 4 x pre flop, yes there is variance but there is also whats called moronic play, sadly Kev gets zero luck on here on his stats he has played in the last two weeks 68 tournaments and not cashed once and 85% he goes in in front and as Vince knows this is not the 1st time he has had amazing beats in one day,

Can i take this opportunity in thanking all in this community and we both hope you will all take care

Bye bye

    You will both be missed.

    I have been over on titan the last few weeks and trust me, the standard is worse. If it werent for the fact that I cannot withdraw my balance and close my account, I would have ditched that place weeks ago.

    The presenters keep telling us that the play is much higher now than when it started but I doubt that very much.

    lol grow up... if the board is 6789 (all diamonds) and you have AA (club + heart) and get put all in don't call and complain about bad beats... i think consider your play and not your 'luck'

    I don't blame you the standard of play on this site is shocking, more like bingo or roulette, luck is the over riding factor not skill, i came third in a live re buy game 70+ entrants yet can't make the cash on sky. To make maters worse i went out of a £10 sit and go where i was frozen out sky said that was my problem not theres, the fact that i was playing multi-tables and was only affected on one doesn't seem to bother them the telephone operator wouldn't even investigate things so i loose without playing the game. The only constant is that sky makes there money whatever happens on the tables.I'll use up my points in the freerolls they i'll play  live games at least i can see what i'm up against not some faceless corporation,good luck to those who leave, those who choose to stay you need more than luck,unfortunately all the skill in the world won't help you.....

    some comments are harsh, but I think that if they are leaving by posting in this manner then it should be expected as it isnt just goodbye its a dig at the standards as well.

    I have seen these posts all over the place lately and quite frankly if your on a losing streak just have a break or leave quietly and with dignity

    i get slightly unnerved reading these posts regarding the standard of play,....

    there is a  terrible standard of play by the majority on every pokersite on the planet... for this im am glad

    every casino in the world has a huge surplus of uber donks....... for this im am also glad

    even the sacred WSOP main event is infested with donks.....


    if poker were played to such a high standard then would we ( the winning players) be making as much money???  NO

    another fact is , most of the money i make comes not from my brilliance but from the mistakes of other players.... took me a while to relize that one :)

    viva bad players, bring them in by the truck load!!!!

    i'm backing kdanem and razor, good riddance to sky its full of donks ur probably one of em thats why u like it sooo much. I will now stick to my more profitable site which I have been on for nearly 4 years, and over the last year have made a profit of over $10,000. On this site I've made a loss of over £600. I've tried and tried on this site kept telling myself my luck will change if I keep playing the right way but oh no. how do these donks get soo lucky and what makes them play such dross. I dunno? And the presenters are bigging these players up. crazy site. Love Orford tho he's a top fella.

    ha ha getting better a taking them m8, am still still know to thro the odd hissy fit ha ha 

    im kinda getting into the swing of this site now, the community side of the site is particulary enjoyable, even starting to post now, which is'nt like me at all.

    this site might actually best one of the best, thats coming from sumone with accounts on every major site out there.

    only thing that lets sky poker down is the huge amount of bad players that keep beating the good players, on other sites i play on aq never beats ak and the worst player always loses, i mean always .lmao. happy days ehy?

    the thing that amazes me is that everyone talks about their bad beats and how its ruined their life!!! have you never inflicted a bad beat on someone yourself?? im sure we all know the answer but i certainly dont hear you talking bout them!

    poker is supposed to be a 'game'. if you're not having fun because u think the whole world is against you then is it really the game for you?

    and for 'hoyskis' comment. maybe the reason why you keep losing money on here is possibly because you are not quite as good as you thought you were.

    I don't think i'm that good, i'm just ok. I just know that on this site all I can say is I have incredible bad luck. But I know what I see and it's not just happening to me. I see way too many bad beats on here it's beyond belief. It's not ruined my life because my winnings on the other site I play more than covers here. It's just very frustrating, and yip it does ruin your fun. The amount of times totally dominated players end up sucking out sucks lol. my last 3 pocket AA has lost jeese how unlucky is that. What I mean about Donk calls or all- ins tho is for example players are throwing all their chips in with K 6 os getting called by K A suited and they are hitting their 6 or making a one card flush. And this is what I see time and time again on this site. There's bad play on all the sites but on this site it gets rewarded a bit too much for my liking

    Nice joke Hoyski, but are you serious?

    If you've really made $10k over the last 4 years on another site, I'm assuming all the other stuff you've written here is just a wind up?

    i've won over $10,000 over 12months i've been playing on that site (betfred) for 4 years and have gradually been improving my winnings year by year. I've also cashed twice in the million $ tourney on pokerstars only $1,300 and $600 but you get over 6000 players in that tourney tho. Don't really play much on there and havent played on there for ages too many players. I only play low stakes so had to play $3 sats to get into tourney. just sky poker really frustrates me. i know you play a lot higher stakes so i don't imagine you get as many bad players. also sky is my isp and now my connection on the other poker site is awful.

    Just a tip that I found helpful....

    The better you are, the more bad beats you receive. Focus on the fact that you get your money in good and forget about the luck factor.

    Fact of life, but I'm sorry to see Kdanem and Razorkev go and wish them luck.
