Sky have to make money like any other business i suppose,
Bet you dont moan when you get your c4p!!!
that,s the reason i don,t play cash...
well not hear anyway.
post me a private message if u would like to know your options?

This is 100% standard, it's like saying I won 5 DYMs and lost 5 DYMs and I'm not break even I'm down!! How outrageous.
No offence but this whole thread is laughable, where do you think Sky make money?
don,t get out of your pram over it.
Evil,s right.
there are better places to play imo.
i,m not saying sky shouldn,t charge rake,of course they should.
i was simply repling to Clintons post,that,s all.
if u can,t take someone elses point of view,well that,s not my fault is it
and let,s face it we all have one,and they are sometimes going to be diferent from yours.
so,nothing personel buddy.

you,re havin a giraffe aren,t you.
at 2p/4p u now get 2 points per hour per table.
it was bad enough when it was 4 points.
ok,u now get the so called "happy hours" which bring it up to the old 4 points per hour,
"BIG DEAL"
oh,and they,ve taken away the £1000 freeroll 4 all the players that can,t get to 500 points.
once again the little micro players have to suffer.
yeh,i,m havin a moan....
pity more people don,t,then just maybe something might get done about it.!!!

yes i appreciate the lower u play the higher the rake,
as i play dym,s here at sky,that is also the case.
what i am trying to put forward is that as usual the micro players are being exploited imo.,
and i,m simply saying that this is wrong.
i know i,m not going to win this discussion or make any friends
but that,s fine by me.
if people want to play here @ 2p/4p good luck to them,i,m sure there are some that do quite well.
god knows,i,ve played some hours,and yes i did make money from them.
but come on...2 points per hour per table.
:-(

For NL10 and below Sky has very high rake in comparison to some of the other sites, i don't quite understand why both sites provide the same thing so why does Sky charge more than average.
I must agree though from NL20 and above Sky's rake structure isn't too bad and very reasonable. Its just lower down that is the problem.
NL20+ i choose SKY
NL10- i'm starting to see more value elsewere.
Fiasco!
Don't know whether i'm playing poker or gardening
keep on forking out
Digging holes with spades
filling pots with garden gates
then Sky hit me with a rake
I know sky have to make money but didnt know it was that much! 40p is a bit excessive imo
To be fair, it was 34p not 40p, and that's only 17p each, so in the grand scheme of things, you only lost 4BBs, which yeah is a bit horrible when you get AA in pre flop but hey it's better than losing
