As I have pointed this error out and I am in the Yellow team I claim the points Queenie won for the Yellows we therefore drew with the Oranges not lost.

When you have play satellites for the site's main tournaments would it be possible to win a token to use when you want to? My original example was with the £5.20 SPT qfinals, often I have not entered an afternoon qualifier because i can't be on the site later the same day for the semi, and similarly i am often on the site at the time of the semi-finals but can't afford to buy in direct and haven't been able to be online to play a £5.20 qualifier earlier that day.
It could be used for primo qualifiers, SkySports BH qualifier etc as well and would probably increase numbers.
A second suggestion/query:
When you have money in your account a good idea would be to have the facility to section money off to different parts of Sky...Poker/Vegas/Bet or even Bingo!! I have an account on another site and you can transfer money to other sections of the site and is stays separate. On Sky it is too easy to have a 'quick go' on Sky Vegas and before you know it, your Poker bankroll has vanished. I know to a llarge degree its a matter of self control and there is the facility to self-exclude from certain areas but if you had to actually transfer money from Poker to Vegas and specify an amount and confirm this, it might stop some people from doing it?!!
A third suggestion:
Echoing thoughts of other people, the possible introduction of 10 seater tournaments which aren't necessarily deepstacks. Even if it was on a trial to see the take up it would be nice to have the option.
All the problems with the Sky Poker Premiership (scores and players in 2 teams) should all be sorted now. Sorry for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused you.
fr4nkie- We do try our best to deal with any abuse that occurs on the poker tables, however if you see any abuse of your own we would be very grateful if you could forward the details onto customer care at help@skybet.com and we can look into it further.
If you are still experiencing technical problems, please fill in the details on this section: https://www.skypoker.com/secure/poker/sky_lobby?action=show_static&page=poker_community_forums&plckForumPage=ForumDiscussion&plckDiscussionId=Cat%3a57795ac2-1793-4377-b4cf-e124b0f555f4Forum%3a0b0e8696-8d64-4a56-8a74-73ba61953ec6Discussion%3a07c892df-88c5-49ab-9f11-d0269c0f3262
docden22- Unfortunately we cannot offer you private tournaments for you and your friends as we do not want customers to feel "left out" as it were and it would not be cost effective in the long run.
Brrrrrrr- We have recently launched a token system for free games here: https://www.skypoker.com/secure/poker/sky_lobby/poker-promotions/free-poker-play
However I understand this is not what you are after. It may be hard to facilitate your suggestion as it would require somebody to enter the players manually as and when they request a seat which would not be cost effective, however I will pass your suggestion forward.
Your balance is a balance for the whole of Sky Betting and Gaming. If you deposit £10 it is available to use on Sky Poker, Vegas, Bingo and Bet. There are a few promotions which mean you can only use it on one platform however.
Finally, we have limited our seats for finals and major tournaments to ensure that everyone can get the most out of Sky Poker. If this is due to change in the near future I will let you know.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

Hi Jordan
How about running a £1 buy in pyramid sit & go. 5 levels with the winner getting a place to the next round.
(or first and second get a place in next round)
Then play the last table on tv.
also
1. should'nt the sit out be sit out next hand, this would make it better then trying to catch it if your in a hand and don't want to play the next hand.
2. is it just me or do's anyone else have to click the i'm back about 18 times to stop the software mucking my cards.
3. if you press fold be mistake you can only check or fold. there should be a x in the right corner to close it so you can still bet.
Any chance of adding satallites to the main live events such as EPT/WSOP etc?
Due to the nature of Sit N Go's we don't feel it necessary to bring in a tournament structure. You can always satellite your way into some of our main events for only a small price.
We don't offer the option to sit out next hand I am afraid to save confusion and people missing hands they may want to play etc.
You shouldn't have to click "I'm back" numerous times, you may want to download Mozilla Firefox and use that as your browser when playing Sky Poker.
Hi Venomgg,
We will be running satellites into the WSOP nearer the time as we did last year.
ade20-Unfortunately we cannot add more at the moment for business purposes, however you can earn poker points in the Sit N Go tournaments if you want to earn more.
Thanks,
Jordan
This has been suggested before but it is not something we are putting into place as yet.
I will forward your comment on however to add weight to the plea.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Jordan
I would like to see tournament tokens rather than auto entry into a specific tournament
I.E you could play a 3 open satalites in a day and each one you place in would give you 1 entry into any open YOU decide to enter (for the same monetary value of course) there are often times when i may not be able to play that nights Open but i would still play a satalite if i was sitting around and bank the token for another night. Or to pass the time i may win entry into the open but would play another satalite if i could bank the entry for the following night.
I think the intorduction of this would be well supported (there was once a poll on here which showed overwhelming favour of it) and can't be that difficult to do as many sites have tournament tokens / money that is ring fenced to be spent only on site tourny's (therefore not taking money out of sky) but can be used at winners discretion.
I will pass your suggestion onto the management team to see if there is anything we can do.
I will be in touch if we can facilitate this.
Cheers,
Jordan
I dont' know if this possible but alot o the site's i play poker on accept Ucash vouchers which is great for me as most of my earnings are cash jobs so it's alot easier for me to get a ucash voucher from my local co-op. if sky offered this service then i would play fulltime on sky as i love the site and the forum but i find it hard o put cash in my bank as i work monday to saturday 8 till 6.
just a thought maybe.
kind regards

If this was done it would give all players on the table a chance to follow the hand rather than just looking for the WINNER marker to pop up .
Kind Regards Mick .
That is a good suggestion. We used to offer prizes like this for people finishing in the top 20 or so in the league table at the end of the month. To be honest, it didn't prove too popular but I will pass on your comment. If you manage to play in the Sky Poker Tour live event we often give out t-shirts and other goodies there as well.
Hi Chew07, I have passed this type of query on before, however, there were so many calls for it to be spead up that it is not something we are doing at the moment. If anything changes, however, I will post it on here.
xDJSIGNx, we do have freerolls running every day which you buy-in with just your poker points. Details can be found here: https://www.skypoker.com/secure/poker/sky_lobby/poker-promotions/five-freerolls
However, the league tables are for those cash games which are listed I am afraid.
Hope that helps. Keep your suggestions coming!
Cheers,
Jordan
If there have been so many could you please direct me to where these posts are as i must have missed them all and i would be very intrested to read some of these many posts.
Kind Regards Mick .
Not checked back to read your question but if i remember rightly it was slowing down the community card deal on all ins? don't know why you would want this as when multi tabling it would just get annoying
Which is why i find it strange that all these people have rung Sky Poker rather than posting on the forum , i thought this was the place to air our views on poker matters,still its only a suggestion after all.
Kind Regards Mick .
ive been on this site for about 4 yrs and i loveit but just lately you have started doing rebuys i think this is rubbish if your out your out ive just been in a tourny and some bloke rebuyed about 9 times thats a joke i get to the final table on buy in and he got there with muti add ons its just sooo wrong its not like you do it on a few tournys you do it on loads big ones too i think its a total joke if you lose all your chips you should be out its only been the last few months and i think you have got it totally wrong does antone think this too?? i bet its all the poo players who like it i never rebuy on princeble please get rid of them but i guess not as it makes sky more money but im most upset by it can you do it in the world finals i think not

I posted this on the spt 10/11 thread but then it got all squabbily and i think my post got overlooked...
I noticed at 09/10 DTD SPT final they had an undercamera final table..is there any was we could utilise this for the SPT final ths year?
It would make a fantastic stand-alone....
xx
some further improvements you could make to your software that would deffinitely help you guys increase traffic and make the client much more user freindly are:
- more note space *
-colour coded notes***
-fold to any raise button
-auto-top up feature
Regards
Chris
At the moment it seems that you can use them for some tournaments which need 20 points to enter but what about maybe having a bigger value freezeout tournament where it cost say 250 - 500 or even 1000 points to enter?
They would be a useful way of using up points and prizes could be cash or even tokens to some of the site's main tournaments if that is now possible?!
Would be interested to see what people think of this..
What has happened to this thread ????as it is called "Your suggestions will be answered" i think it would be nice if someone answered .
I know that you are around on the site because you keep popping up on other threads but the last time you posted on your own thread was 20/11/2010.
This thread was and is a good idea but it can only work if the suggestions are answered.
Regards Mick .
