Meh, it's a small annoyance, but it wasn't so long ago Sky never had it anyway. I think it'll be a bit annoying but no big deal.

Yeah... back to the old days it is... although I reserve the right to moan the first time that I lose almost a whole stack and then get dealt AA next hand, before I have a chance to top up beyond having 11.5bb

Surprised the note about marketing budget / changing rewards got sent to a single player as opposed to a wider mailout / SkyPoker post on the forum... what feedback did you send back to them dub1?

Hey Lambert,

Yep I agree, but auto rebuy is the least of our concerns. Most other sites are either dropping reward percentages or increasing rake to compensate for the 15% tax that the UK government are now taking.

From the sound of Sky's response, they have no plans to change this atm.
