Sky Desperate??

davhotred

Is Sky so desperate for business that we have now to suffer a pop-up ad right in the middle of the table when a game is underway.
Why not try cutting the Rake from 15% to 10% at the lower end of the market. Speculate to accumulate !

Hi Dav,

Hardly "desperate", last week broke all records for volume of business on Sky Poker, it was their busiest week ever in their near 9 year history, which, in a market which is in gentle decline, is quite something.

It's a trial, & may or may not continue. If it can be shown that it drives extra entrants to Tourneys & Promos, it will stay. If it does not, I guess it'll go.

Yes, has been for years, well since black friday. Some sites have steadied the ship though and some making small gains again. Probably the only gaming product where keeping numbers flat year on year can be considered a success.
