No probs i think it's a good idea...
A jackpot for the two biggest tournies during the afternoon. Think £1k is a bit optimistic. But maybe a £250-£500 jackpot would be good for business and increase numbers.
Also it will benefit people who cant play the evening mtts due to work etc.

Hi Tikay im new to sky poker and haven't got a huge bankroll at 35 pound I play cash games 2p/4p, and on those blinds almost everyone limps. So when im on the button with a mediocre hand do i put in a raise or fold because i call most of the time and then the rest of the players may hit on flop and i fold with possibly the best hand please can you give me any advice ty
why where u not in your tournement i won caption contest to play u in it and u werent there very disapointed a bit of false advertisment me thinks and then get 2 heads up had double the other persons chips then near enough every hand goes 8/10 for opponent would nt mind if i was getting beaten by aces kings queens buut he was always hitting low pairs i.e 2s 4s 6s just doesnt seem right at all ...disappointed player ;,(

Hi Johnny,
Welcome to the site. There is an excellent guide written by Dohhhhhhh (a very good cash game player on this site) on how to beat the low stakes cash games, so here it is:
1. Stick to playing very strong starting hands, AJ, AQ, AK, and most pocket pairs. Whenever you play a hand, always make a decent raise (16-20p at least) and that should thin the pack a bit. 2. Never slowplay at low stakes cash games... if you've flopped top pair, two pair, 3 of a kind etc ALWAYS bet it. You don't want to give people a free chance to see cards that help them but more importantly you don't want to miss the opportunity to get more money in the pot. 3. You should very very rarely bluff at these levels because frankly most players aren't good enough to realise you're trying to show strength and fold.
hi bud from experience tikay is a very busy man, with many committments, and unfortunately from time to time can not always take part in the take on tikay touraments, ha does however play in as many as possible, likewise I'm sure he will reply to your question as soon as he gets the chance

Hi churchy
scouse_red has pretty much answered this, I do know however, tikay has asked that the take on tikay tournaments be called something else
thanks mate ....its not that im ungrateful for the ticket i won but i could have canceled my reg and went in to a better tournement as there were only 4 other people in it and stayed in it as was looking forward to trying my self against tikay
Why when i go to enter a 2.20 tourny for the free one you get when i sign up does it take it from my balance and not use the free one?? any help please Posted by crewefan
Hi crewefan
I suggest you send an email to Customer Care, contact details are at the bottom right of the page
How do i get more free play chips? Posted by Bognorfox
Hi
If you are talking about the freeplay tables, it should re-load when you leave the table, and come back, if you are talking about poker points for freerolls, you have to play poker for money so you can build them up.

Simalarly, any tournament that has a celebrity name to attract players,should be re-named if the celebrity concerned is not playing. I was in a tournament last night expecting to be playing against Richard Orford, he was not there, so I felt cheated/dissappointed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The same goes for MTTs that are advertised as being on TV. You enter them, but then find out they are not on TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was gonna make this same joke Nosey Bonk lol, well played.
Come on people, be fair, these people have lives even if they do consist of duck and train spotting, that's not for us to say.
The main thing about the Take on Tikay is that Tikay was the one that designed the format. The same is true of Thews @ 10. I'm sure they try and play each week, but if their schedule does not permit it, then they simply cannot.
Hi, Please could you help me find Dohhhhhhhs stratergy guide for nl4? I have tried searching for it but cant seem to find it. I have been reading in the poker clinic on several threads how good it is. Thanks for your help.
