Sky Poker Software, & "IT"

All the improvements are welcome but unless I've missed it my issue isn't addressed. I join a tournament then do something else while I'm waiting - then forget and miss the start. Want Klaxons and sirens to sing out and wake me up please.

It was, HERE.

Obv the other points are good, otherwise i would have said if i was against anything :P 

The only reason i am ranting about Antes is because a) this would make a big difference in me playing more tourneys on here b) it was not mentioned with timescales, i appreciate it is going to happen even on a small scale to start with but i dont think anyone has said when like all the other things.

Give me break Young_Gun. You play all the time anyway.lol. Why would antes make any difference? Unless antes add time to the 24hrs in a day, you couldn't play much more.lol

Well it would speed up tourneys so you can fit more in per day

What will be the minimum size for the new resizable tables with the new tables (e.g. 200px*150px). Will there be an option to save hand history locally so we can start using tracking software to graph our results? Will titling be more accurate and resize tables to the correct size and overlap correctly if necessary?

I'd suggest it is very unlikely they'll start allowing you to save your handy history locally to avoid the use of tracking  software. I think it's a masssive plus that Sky don't allow tracking software and it should be kept this way.

I think you'll find many people already use tracking software as much as it's "not allowed" on here, despite what you are told!

Hence me currently refusing to play on here the last few days whilst emails have been going back and forth - end outcome - yet another quote from the T&C saying it's "not allowed blah blah".

This isn't the thread to go on about it though (I was just replying to the post).

Bump

Just bumped this so people can see what is up and coming !

Although it seems synchronised breaks are already behind schedule. hopefully the other changes are still on track.

NOW I KNOW WHY I`M BARRED

I'm afraid those that insist antes turn tournaments into a 'crapshoot' are mistaken. It's a common misconception. 

Antes actually increase the amount of play there is in the later stages of tournaments. And It is to this end that they are designed.

Antes help eliminate short stacks faster during the later stages of tournaments and therefore increase the amount of play between the middle and larger stacks. When there are short stacks on your table it drastically changes the dynamic compared to when the average stacks are larger in relation to the blinds and antes.

Are there any further developments on the june/july timeline for resizeable tables?
