    Does anyone else not agree that all these thing we are asking for eg. download client, hand history, rezise ect should come standard as with most other leading poker sites, i think that if sky spent the money it would be great for there profits because more players would stick around and more would come....

    The download is in the queue behind a number of other poker developments, and scheduled for February release.  Ahead of that we've got heads up rematches, play a similar sit & go, multi table tiling and seat rotation coming in the next two weeks, addons and rebuys coming in early November, a redesign of the website home page and poker lobby coming in late November and Omaha is being worked on for release in the new year also.   Not wanting to make excuses, but to give you an insight into our prioritisation, we'd have liked to get the download completed and out in November, but its design relies heavily on the new website design, so it was felt essential that was released first. So there are lots of developments in the pipeline and we'd love to get it all out as soon as possible, but each new feature has to meet a strict schedule for design and development and be tested comprehensively before it can be released.  Thanks for your patience and we're always looking for a couple of players to help test some of these features, so if you are interested please post here. Regards, Des.

    A couple months ago, I posted a thread in the tecchie forum explaining the best way to cater for multi tablers with a downloadable client.  Someone said they would send it to the tecchie team.

    I would be happy to test the downloadable client.  In fact I think it is essential, lol.

    Im referring to an earlier email i had off Des when he said there would be a tourney and a show to find our star poker player. He said news to follow in september, however i`ve not heard anything since and its october now.

    Hi Candi,

    Sorry for the delay in coming back.  This is something we are working on at the moment with a proposed launch date of late November.  However, as with all proposals, it has to go through a final sign off process and until it successfully does that we can't say too much.  Lots of fingers crossed though...

    Regards,

    Des.

    i personally can understand why everyone wants a download client such as many other sites do use this.

    However my personal opinion is against it. I find the site easier to navagite than the ipoker clients i have used in the past, i find it easier to find what type of game i want there and then. I prefer the system that it uses. Yes i have the odd call/check delay from time to time but it still does it without hesitation.
