A few general sky poker questions.....

edited July 2011 in Poker Chat


1) What night does DTD run?

2) How much is it to play primo

3)  I've been struggling really bad with lag on the download tonight, but only on 1/2 tables whilst playing 6. Can anyone suggest any reason for this? my comp has been running sky fine for ages.

* Plz can any techno boffs recognise that this post is a genuine enquiry, and I need help, I'm not just on the wind up, I plan to play through the night.

Appreciate any help anyone can give me

DOHH

    lol DOHHHHHHH, a cunning plan I see.

    From looking in Technical Queries there seems to be a general issue with this at the moment.  The problem being running multiple tables and only one running slowly.

    I don't know anything that could cause this on a users PC.  Sounds like a back end issue at the Sky Poker side where certain tables are running on certain servers.

    I'd say Sky Poker need to check their servers that are running the tables, one is probably having a technical issue.

    I may be completely wrong though.

    Heres proof that there is a problem with Lag in these games.
    I had AA on the button, put in a raise and after some time my hand was folded.

    The least they can do to make amends is to give me a free entry to a similar game!

    It's almost certainly at Sky's end. I have 2 tables up and one disconnected - same for last 3 nights.

    I feel a 'Closed for site maintenance' statement coming soon.....................

    1)  Monday as people have said, really good fun if you want to get involved.

    2)  As people have said it's 55 quid direct with a wide range of Sats.

    3)  Got the same problem.  Also I know some people are experiencing extreme lag on one table if they are playing mixed disciplines across the tables they are multi-ing.  I know this is the case if a player is playing PLO cash and PLO8 cash at the same time.  It must be on the Sky end from the sample size experiencing this and it's happening on both download and browser versions.  Hopefully someone here will have the answer or you on this one.

    BTW, smartest OP I've seen for a while.  I thought you were meant to be a cider drinking Northerner, who knew...

    Thats why i played the dtd tourney on monday, but gave the J Hartigan omaha a miss, and i really wanted to play both, but just knew it was a waste of time (and not my fault)

    I've emailed whoever I can at Sky Poker so hopefully this will be addressed in some way tomorrow morning I guess.

    All I can do is raise awareness.

    Ok this might sound daft but in light of what Machka says above I have to ask. I was recently having HUGE problems multitabling which ended up with the site becoming totally unplayable and me losing buy in after buy in. These were DYMs £22 - £110. I did make changes to my setup at home during/after this period in an attemp to fix. Since then I've been able to 10-table £11 DYMs no problem (really). Today, at tea time, I load up 4 DYMs (£22, £33 and 2 x £55). Complete LAG to the point where they were unplayable. Could there be anything at all in this?
