Deposits and bounty hunters
Two trivial queries about money matters:
1. I lost my max daily buy-in yesterday. No big deal - I can afford it. But when I came to play tonight at about 8pm, I had to wait till 8.20 PM for the 24 hours to be up before I could deposit again. Now this is a little bit silly - people like to play at roughly the same time each evening. Why not make it 23 hours?
2. After another evening of consistent losses, I was about 7 pence short of registering for a tournament. However I had plenty of money on bounties from the tournaments I was playing. Why couldn't those bounties be paid immediately, instead of waiting for the end of the tournament? I could've registered for more games if so.

Hi Bluster.
Q1.
Strange question that - why not make it 22, 25, 19 or 28?
As it happens, it is a GC/Compliance requirement, which states 24 hours, no more, no less. So it's not a Sky Poker decision, it's the "law" so to speak, & I can't ever see it being changed. "Responsible Gaming" all that is not something that is taken lightly on Sky Poker, & 23 hours will never be permitted. Sorry, but that's how it is.
Q2
Prize pools are not generally paid until the MTT completes for a variety of reasons.
