good post this will run and run mate fed up with it all to be honest (he says eating humble pie) ive moaned on here before but you have to accept its part of game obviously sky do not care who wins, why would they, deep deep deep down tho i cannot help think that somehow the software sort of "makes hands collide" is the best way of putting it i think and a little bit too often someone holding pr flops a set but hey same for everyone i say please dont take this as another moan as im way past all that ill just sit and wait for kirstii to post and have a good chuckle cheers all the best thanks for reading in advance

Lets take an example:
6 player £1 SNG - players each pay £1.10, Sky gets 60p and the rest is divided between the winners. What exactly does Sky gain and how do they profit from setting the site so the best hands lose etc?
Its the same for a MTT or cash - Sky get their rake regardless of who wins. They dont benefit any more if player A wins or if player A loses with his Aces first hand to 7-2 off. In fact, if anything, they would stand to LOSE by the aces being cracked continually as they would lose players who would take their money elsewhere thereby losing Sky their 60p x thousands of games per day - whats in it for Sky Poker even before you consider the brand and brand reputation of Sky as an entity and the damage something like that would do to them?
