    +2  Altho they may have twigged that a certain player made quite a bit of cash last nite in all-in sats?  ;-))

    +4 - they won't make the guarantee if they don't run them. Regardless of whatever happened last night

    +5.

    The aipf sats were stopped for some 'unexplained' reason for the 9pm £55 BH not so long ago too.

    maybe the big boys dont want us little guys playing the bigger games....lol.

    Why would they stop something that was very successful and helped them make the bigger GTs.
    Surely its just a mistake.

    what happened last night?

     i think the format has slightly changed by the look of it, 3 seats GTD, so you dont need to actually win more than 1 hand a lot of the team depending on the numbers they get.

    Since when do Skypoker have to provide cheap tickets into a tourney?  If you want to play in the tourney, stump up the cash.  The entry fee isn't that expensive anyway

    Ah, the wanderer returns...

    ...the Sunday Roller is quite a lot of money for most recreational players.

    Sure .......... a Ferrari is quite a lot of money for most people, but I don't see many people outside the Ferrari factory moaning about the company not providing cheap cars

    lol not the best example but nice try. Anyway it would appear the sats arent working properly as the first one only paid 2 seats 
  • edited November 2014
    The first £25K all in sat finished - 3 seats guaranteed but only 2 paid
  • edited November 2014

    I make no apologies for spinning an all in sat whilst already playing in the Roller.

    Does look like Sky have messed it up with the seats/blurb somewhere along the line though, they all said were gtd at 3 seats.

    i thought exactly the same thing

    Thanks for highlighting this for me. 

    Although the sat where I came 3rd didn't give me a seat in the sat lobby it did actually enter me into the tournament and my table in the main game opened up.

    But the one where I finished 2nd did not pay me the £110. I have emailed customer service about this and I am sure they will sort it out.

    I assume Sky are aware of the problem as they cancelled the last satelite before it ran

    Thanks again

    Ian

    Hi Alan,

    I sent the thread up to Head Office as soon as I saw it, @ 20.19 last night.
     
    I never got (or asked for) a reply, but I'm sure they are sorting it out.

    All poker sites offer cheap entry into tournaments eg sats. I understand sky should look into sats which don't get the right number of entrants to meet the guaranteed seats but that means they need to adjust the number of all in sats or number of guaranteed seats not get rid of the sats entirely. Sats like the all in sats are great, its a small amount for most players and gives players an opportunity of a big win and also a chance to play in the bigger tournaments on the site and maybe get on the tele.

    Also, it is great for the site to be able to advertise that someone won big from a small outlay.....and probably pretty great for the player too!

    Lastly £110 is a lot for the majority of players on the site.

    sky cancelled one all-in sat long before they were played.  there were a number of people registered into a 3 seat guaranteed game.  i believe that this was wrong.  very wrong. 

    if this practice were upheld sky could cancel any tournament they choose that isn't making a guarantee.  why offer guarantee in the first place. 

    not good sky.
