Why should I stay?

edited July 2014 in Poker Chat
Hi all

So, I am ready to leave my current site and find a new home.  I used to play SkyPoker a lot and I see a few of the old names around still.

I asked in livechat for a deposit bonus, no go there.  I am a micro player, I prefer MTT's but play SNG's/Cash too.

I have a BR of approx. £300 and am saving BR for a wedding. (Oh and I won a laptop on another site so have a nice new computer to use too!!)  This BR was started from £0 this year, though I have won an awful lot more in the past, having a family is expensive!!  I have the ability to deposit more but don't want to atm.

So, whats the best thing you like about skypoker (and I mean the whole experience, tables, games, community etc etc and what will I enjoy most (I do love the social side and am on many forums).  Why should I make sky my new home?

I am sure before there was a 'show unread posts' thing I could click to make the forum more usable, but I cant find anything like it now.  Any ideas or am I mistaken?

    If America's economy collapses, the money in your account is in £, not silly $.

    Thanks

    I thought there was a bit where I could basically view all new posts in a list, from all sections, to save me having to keep going back to main section, but maybe I was wrong

    Sky is my home of poker because.....

    1. Easy to naviagte. In my humble opinion there is not a better site out there for ease of use and is so so user friendly. And lets not forget its in £'s and english pence which we love

    2. 6 max format. Forces the action, can join a tourny of field of 300-500 and be finished in 4 hours. Still big prizes up tilop for the win too :)

    3. Great community. Nearlly all serious players on here who post regular give hinest constructive feedback. Always willing to spend some time to help you out

    4. Players Journeys.  I for one love reading players journeys from micro to pro. Is a great read and means you can get to know the real sharks, something I believe is ni on impossible on other sites

    5. Tv time. Get your hands played live on tv on tuesday thursday and Sundays. All the tv presenters are witty and all pffer something different. Morw than anytjing is just great tv and you can even win the odd prize.

    I only play for fun, but fun is what I have. Hopefully will see you on the tabkes soon :)

    You've not watched Orford then, I take it?

    Absolute drivel merchant, there's more wit in a Southwater Class B Engineering brick.

    For the reasons above, the fact that a absolute numpty like me can play main mtts 3 or 4 nights throught sats for what is a couple of pints and get in the dosh.  That it seems we all have our day, me 2nd last night for £900, which pays poker for a few weeks and pays Benidorm.
             If you win a few quid and withdraw, its in bank acc next day. No rip off $ to £ exchange con. You can be playing in mtt with poker pros and beat them, you can be playing against Orford and get beat. Ipoker is dreadful, chat boxes full of abuse, big poker pro sites with 1000 plus fields, na here is fine, watch yourself get humped out of tonights turbo on telly, and told where you went wrong.
