Omaha Hi Lo S&G DYM Stack Size Reduced

Macacgirl1

The starting stack size has been reduced from 2000 chips to 1500 in the three games available, namely £2.25p, £5.50p and £11.
I can understand sky wanting games over asap to reduce costs, but with the starting stack sizes reduced thus, it's now a game of bingo after 15/20 minutes.
Even for a sometimes very loose player like myself, this is daft.
Does anyone know if the starting stack size is to be reduced in the regular Omaha S&G DYM games too? I hope not as I'll not be going near the Hi Lo S&G tables again and will be staying on the Omaha S&G games.
Thanks and apologies if I've posted this in the wrong place.

I agree the 1500 starting stack is too low.  I do not know why Sky has changed this. As you say, this has taken what was a well formatted DYm and reduced it to a Bingo game. 

I too will be refraining from playing them from now on. 

Change it back Sky, please.

Yes, agree completely, it means no one can play the game, once a player raises they are virtually pot committed. Put it back to how it was otherwise I doubt I will play again.

Appears to be across the board,all sit and gos and tournys including the £100 gtd.

Totally in agreement with you guys.


Takes all the skill out of the game.

Will be playing my PLO8 elsewhere I am afraid.

And while I am in the mood for moaning........If all the complaints about popup messages appearing while trying to post on the forum are ignored, I am no longer going to bother !

This is odd though ! Just checked on a £2.25 DYM as it was about to start. Is it a handicap?

Apologies guys, that's an administration error!

All heads-up should be 1500 Chips and anything over will be 2000 chips.

It should all be in order now!

Sorry for the confusion.

I reckon Arfur should have a -500 handicap on all games

Thanks Jordan for clearing that up.  I'll call off the mutiny.

Lol having played Arthur, i think he would be fine starting with less than 1 bb, he would still fold his way to a cash
