It could be worth £300 with prizes being tournament/satelite tokens eg certain number into £11 Bounty Hunters, lucky 7's, Sky Roller satelites?
Super Freeroll
There could be an extra £200 added to the first 7pm Wed nite freeroll of the month to make it £300. It could cost 100 poker points to enter with no rebuys/addons?
Think ppl who dont qualify for c4p in a month, should still recieve a £5 bonus when they hit each 1000 poker points. IMO just because they dont achieve it in a month, dosent make them any less loyal, and would show no matter what level of player, you are rewarded to keep playing on Sky?
Sry personal rant, whats all this I've been hearing the last cpl of years about birthday bonus? Did I forget to fill out my D.O.B. when I joined? I havent even recieved a card the last couple of years
Thanks for all the ideas everyone, keep 'em coming!
'BUBBLETASTIC' : Quite simply, from 0.00am on a Monday through until 3pm on a Sunday, anyone who is the bubble on any tournament with over 100 players, (with a buy-in of at least £2), is entered into a tournament on Sunday evening with a prize pool of say £250. Not got a partciular preference on format but I'm sure others will!
Knowing my luck I'll now regularly be the bubble bubble!!
After looking at comments and taking peoples thoughts on b/r too i think best to run a week long league using the mini each night, with the winner of each night going into the THE BIG SUMMER LEAGUE final, and the top 10 of the league also into the final. So 16 into fianl with top 5 being paid. (must play in at least 2 mini's to qualify via league postion).
But if sky do like idea of getting more players into main then same as above but for the main each night.
Just 1 final note i hope sky could inculde a weekly, or monthly league around the main/mini/both at some time, with a final freeroll at sometime as i feel would be popular. (or mybe a forum comp).
gl all at the tables.
A lot of these ideas make a big thing about rewarding loyal players and make the assumption that 500 points each month is easily achievable by everybody. I have been playing on Sky Poker regularly for the past four years, usually at least four days a week and (if you ask my wife, too often!) probably for 20 hours +.
In that time I have reached 500 points TWICE so rarely obtain entry into loyalty events etc, I have thousands of poker points you can do very little with so selfishly I like the idea of getting a £5 bonus each time I reach 1,000 points regardless of how long it takes me.
And DEL, I don't rememeber receiving a birthday bonus in the past either...it's my birthday tomorrow so if I get one, it will be a nice present!!
gl all at the tables
Are you that loyal to play all fourteen games and then the final?
Game: Deep Bounty Hunter 10 seated 4000 chips £3.30 to enter. Played over 14 days final to be played on the15th day. You must play at least seven games, your finishing position are your points keep your points low. Top 50 go in to final
Prizes For deep bounty hunter
£1 moved to final, so if 100 players enter then £100 is used for final, potentially over 14 games it could be £1400.
£1 on your head. You keep 75%. 25% goes on your head
£1 pound divided by top three. If 100 players Then £100 will be divided by 1st 2nd and 3rd
30p Rake
The Final.
Loyalty Hold ‘em
Deep stack 4000 chips. Just get to the final table to take a share in the Prize pool. Five tables 10 handed.
This could be fun with it being a 10 seated bounty, you could be called by 9 players. Getting knocked out early could be your worst nightmare as points are critical.
Please feel free to edit this as you wish.

On the point I made earlier about getting £5 for every 1000 poker points you achieve, regardless of time it takes.
From a personal point, I have played close to 4k games on Sky and achieve 200ish points per month. A couple of years ago I stopped playing here for about 6mnths, as had no incentive to stay. Even at my low stakes, that would have provided £120 aprox in rake for Sky, in those 6 months. As they say, it all adds up and I'm surely not the only person who has felt like this, and came and gone?
Don't like to moan, but do feel its unfair, and its not so much about £5, its the principle. Would this not be a small price to pay to hpoefully keep more players on this site, thus grow?
Regards, Derek.
Hi everyone
Just to let you know that we've decided Aussie09 is the winner of this.
He has been entered into the Primo on Sunday for free!
Thanks for all your ideas.
Thanks
Sky Poker Team
I have played here 4 years 5500 games made 500 point twice(on the last day) guess i am not loyal enough!
number of hands played..
enter every tourny on sky. go out first hand .. get a rubbish stack.
enter a 1-10 deepstack .. play 3000 hands and get a healthy stack.
LOYALTY REALLY ?
i can play a 1-10 ds for 10 days and get the same stack size as someone has played 3 * 110 bh the primo and 6 * mains ... if i have played the same ammount of hands. bring it on
so u r saying my 10 days play costing me 11-00 is the same value or loyalty as someone spending 580-00 for 10 days play
Remember to enter the mini aswell!

bigal36903, i don't need to defend my suggestion, it was just one of many in a competition that was open to all. did you offer a suggestion?
if you look at your posts again.
bigal36903, "shock at the winning suggestion. how does volume say anything about loyalty... who was it again ??"
then bigal36903, "excellent idea. lets think...number of hands played.. enter every tourny on sky. go out first hand .. get a rubbish stack. enter a 1-10 deepstack .. play 3000 hands and get a healthy stack. LOYALTY REALLY ?"
10 minutes later, bigal36903, "so let me get this right. i can play a 1-10 ds for 10 days and get the same stack size as someone has played 3 * 110 bh the primo and 6 * mains ... if i have played the same ammount of hands. bring it on. so u r saying my 10 days play costing me 11-00 is the same value or loyalty as someone spending 580-00 for 10 days play"
bigal36903, glad to see you've finally got it.
i didn't make a suggestion that was designed to favour my own play as i only play three evenings a week. loyalty is more about regular play rather than playing only a few days each month. i made a suggestion that includes all bankrolls and includes all styles. it is for those who play often and acts as an incentive to play more. playing a volume of hands is a characteristic of a loyal player to skypoker. finally, it is simple and is easy for all to comprehend what is required.
good luck. it would be good if you win it. well, make second place.
Guys - we are closing this thread to avoid any more comments directed at aussie.
As you will know, no promotion is perfect and never suits 100% of people. Nevertheless we liked his idea and picked him as the winner.
Thank you to everyone who suggested an idea, much appreciated.
Good luck to aussie in the primo.
