Sky-Bernie's Been Busy; Better Structures & Guarantees!

I LOVE THE £110 DEEPIE! PLEASE LEAVE IT ALONE!!

The trouble is that the lobby doesn't say what it is.  Anyone not reading the forum would not have a clue

Finally, there is some confusion as to why some of the Deepies are 6 Seater, & others 10 seater. The 7pm Deepies are mostly 10 seaters, & get really good fields, but at present, Monday is - or was! - a 6 seater, so Bernie has changed all the Deepies to 10 Seaters. I know not everyone will like that (though the majority seem to want it), but let's face it, we are poker players, so if we don't have something to moan about, we get uppity. I'm not clear if this includes the 7.30pm Nightly £22-er, or Sunday's £2,000 Guarateed £110-er, but I guess we''l soon see. Personally, I hope it does, as the numbers in these 2 Tourneys rermain a bit low, which is sad, because they are incredibly well structured, & thus the luck factor is much reduced, & skill factor increased. Sky Bernie = Legend. Not bad for a man in his 70's, eh?

What evidence do you have that the majority seem to want it, ive seen no debate, questionaire etc and im on the sky mailing list. go to irishrover poll about it on the forum and have a proper vote, then we can judge if its wanted or not. Believe me when i say this, a lot of people dont like this change.

we have to keep at least the 8.15ds a 6 seater--thats ozzies and rovers tourney!!!!--sky have no right to touch it-- imo-- lol---they own that tourney tikay--and i think thier opinion on it really should hold a lot of wieght--myself--i would also prefer it to remain as is --there are plenty of games now for the ten seat fans----the new 2000 chips is great though--n1

Noted Ozzie. Please remember, Sky Poker are reacting to Customer feedback here. So if you want a few 6 Seater Deepies to stay on the Schedule, I don't think it would be a problem - I'm quite sure Sky Bernie could sort it out, & pretty quickly too. It's impossible to please everyone, but they do try! And they will. So if a few folks are really keen to retain 6 Seater Deepies, Post on this Thread, & I'm sure we can get Bernie to sort something out. The bulk of them WILL be 10 Seaters, because thats what most of the Players want, but I'm sure a few 6 Seaters could be retained. What did you think of the rest of the changes - the increased Guarantees etc?

Tikay, youve stated 'thats what most of the players want'. I refer you to my last post - where was the debate and how was this conclusion reached.

Hi Everyone

I for one do not want and will not play 10 seater tournys.
 The tournament lobby did not state it was a 10 seater therefore I for one feel cheated.
 I entered the 7.15 and 8.15 and would not have if I had known.
I visit the forum regularly but had not seen it mentioned
Is this a case of NOT WHAT IT SAYS ON THE CAN.
Some of you know me and I look forward to Tikays response to this

If things change should it be stated in the LOBBY?
Do I have the right to feel cheated?
Do you agree with my comments?
Going by the table comments tonight this is not a popular move, from my point of view I don't like them so it is easy, I won't play them. decision made, no problem.
So sky it is your trainset and you can play with it how you want of course but I will not be entering the 10 seater deepstacks, my problem is are they all now 10 seaters? 
I don't want to enter one again by mistake
Actually if they are I will feel quite sad, I have always enjoyed the deep stacks and got to know quite a few regulars  in the chat box. Win or lose I have always enjoyed the game.

Hi Everyone,

Have now calmed down a bit and read all the posts.

So I wil now vote to have the choice of some 6 seater deep stacks.

I will also play the games, with the higher starting chipsstack, I think that is a good idea and I had read and seen that detailed in the poker lobby.

I look forward to seeing all these players who want 10 seater deepstacks.I will also watch a few of these games.
Time will tell but I think the 10 seaters will not be supported as well as Sky thinks.
We will see.

In response to a lot of "we want more play" Feedback, the starting chip stacks on ALL the regular Guaranteed & Speed Tourneys has been increased from 1,500, to 2,000. This should be almost immediately, but manually inputting all the changes takes a bit of time, so if he's missed any, make it known on this Thread so that we can give him a quick slap round the chops.

Thanks for spotting this Flash, this tournament has gone off now as you stated, but I've changed this afternoon's 4pm £200 Super Sunday to 2000 chips, both the 2pm and 4pm will pick up this change in future weeks.

I've also amended the 3 Saturday tournaments "Lunchtime Kick Off", "Soccer Saturday" and "The Final whistle" to 2000 chips for future weeks.

If you spot any more then please post up on this thread and we'll get them amended asap.

Best Wishes
