any chance sky are looking at introducing a time bank in the near future at all? would make life alot easier if we had that little extra time to make big decisions especially when multi-tabling. been a few times where ive had to make rushed decisions because of nearly timing out...

    In cash mayb but not Mtt! We will have to wait even longer for the bubble to burst in an event :D

    Id say cut down on how many tables you are multiabling. makign quick decisions is surly part of multi tabling?

    yeah but say you get 2 difficult spots when youa re playing 6+ tables you need to fold 4 of them then think about what the f to do on the remaining 2 inside 10seconds is it?

    Play ur important hands 1st. if need be let the tables where u need to fold time out.... Mind you i have timed out when iv raised and re raised and then shoved on when i have the nutz flush, with no paired board, which did annoy me off lol

    Just concentrate on the impotant decsion.. if it really is a hard one, i thought thats a skill you need to play multi?

    time banks would not work on the tv tables since it could take forever to showcase a bunch of quality hands, but they could be called speed tables whilst introducing something like a 30 second time bank on non-televised cash game tables

    If you're possibly betting hundreds of pounds, it's reasonable to want more than 10 seconds per street to think about it.  Even if you're one tabling you could want/need more than 10 seconds for a street. 

    You can always turn off the time banks around the bubble in tournaments.


    Sky really needs timebanks! (has done since forever, i'm sure it was to do with everything being on tv and the timings but it's really needed).

    sky needs it, if it wants to continue expanding as an online poker site. people have already stated things like hand for hand, antes etc need to be introduced, if you have hand for hand then having a time bank in tournies wont matter a great deal.

    i presume you dont multi-table then? its alot harder than you think, not every decision you can make within 10 seconds or less. im reluctant to keep having to make big decisions for big pots in 10 seconds or less.

    +1 on the above btw

    Timebanks, Antes and H4H is certainly need. It does get a little annoying - sats are most important imo too.

    I multitable 6 tables max, As i only have 1 screen and not a person who will buy a second monitor to open more tables. But i can play 6 tables ok, But this is low stakes and i agree it must be harder with high stakes!

    What if you have 3 important decsions and need time bank on all 3, the time youv clicked for 2 time banks you would have nearly ran out of other tables hehe

    I dunno im not good so dont listen to me init.
