Sky Poker Forums is upgrading its look! Stay tuned for the big reveal!
I think what makes Sky Poker such a grand place to be is....
The TV presenters.
I know the community's mooted at times, and although that's a big part, and it's a good one close knit one here, all poker sites have communities.
I think the big difference is the presenters that present on a channel that is free to anyone with a sky box?
Where else can you play an affordable tourney against one of the channel's (and one of life's) legends? (TK, obviously)
Where else can the layman seek out a table to play against the presenters where it's such easy money (I'm thinking Orford and LM).
And now for the toadying part : I genuinely find all the presenters to be superbly honest, polite, down to earth and educated individuals. And they even quite often make me laugh. You even have to laugh at Hartigan's moaning.
But seriously, where else can you watch a channel commited to poker where all the presenters are down to earth and even come onto the forums and regularly to reply to us?
And the lady presenters are lookers on par with the higher band of my hitherto girlfriends.
It's all good Sky, they all deserve pay-rises.
I'd maybe slow down on the Star War parodies though....

LM was 3rd out in a ToT pretty much before I'd started playing.
You can accept LM being the face of sky. And then there's the Orf.
