Giving Skypoker credit

edited July 2017 in Poker Chat

I must admit this post is partly an apology in general, but also something positive I wanted to say.

I've never been a rigged poker poster/believer, but I can be rather moany about things in general when it's going badly (as we all know it can do). However, I've spent a fair time recently going over some different Poker sites (including Sky) and come to the conclusion that this place really does deserve some good credit in comparison to others I know of.

I like the fact that I can play here in a place that is independent (rather than a network). I like Sky as a brand behind that too, in comparison to other supposedly trustworthy virtual creations that exist in poker world. I appreciate the rewards structures put in place (though still find the freeroll times inconvenient there). I find the software and general play very good to be using day to day. Issues like moving money are simple and secure (not always case elsewhere I know). Customer service is one of the best, and even this very forum reflects a recognition of it's players not done elsewhere.

All in all, we all moan about bad luck/variance from time to time, but I have to admit this place has been one of the best places I've found to play from the many sites I've used (and at times moaned about...... :)).

Stu.

    You have to try to be first to applaud EVERY new announcement, whether it is regarding playing poker at 4 in the morning on SPTs, or boring stuff about the 2.15 deepstack. You have to post things like WOW, THANKYOU SKY, WE LOVE YOU SKY, YOU ARE BRILLIANT SKY, in the biggest print your device is capable of.
    If another groupie has got there first you can just do A BIG +1, still in the biggest print youve got.

    You've crossed a line here. Rainman is a god amongst men. And boring? Your posts are so boring they make my eyes bleed.

    That is clearly not the case. I like Sky poker. What I was having a pop at in the groupies thread, was the players that support every announcement, however trivial, or wrong, like it was giving them a lottery win.
    Exactly that.
    I have no problem in players supporting Sky for the good things that they do.

    I wasnt having a pop at rainman, and realise how important the 2.15 deepstack is to him. I hope your eyes get better because it must make it really difficult to see the tables.
    I can hardly contain myself, as I wait with bated breath to read more of your innovative, exiting and motivational posts.

    Felt like some 'positivity' again on a Thursday morning, so 'bumped' - by the way that's the positive in my OP not the spat that followed, lol :D

    Give SKYBET credit too for some great extra places each way offers, both on Horse Racing and Golf.

    10 places on the British Open this week if you put your each way bets on before it started. GREAT OFFER !
