What the hell is happening at Sky?

Frozen screens, disconnection, It's an absolute bloody nightmare at the moment!!!

Anybody else having the same problems or is it just me?

Sorry Rod,

I must have posted at the same time

It is a bloody nightmare, as my cash game went at exactly the same time with a reasonable pot!!!!!

Last week was the last time for me, software is *****.
They denied a problem, said no chnce of a refund, and since then my account seemed to be locked so i cant withdraw any funds.
to be fair i havnt tried it since then, but i wont play on there untill they get a downlaodable client.

SKY SUCKS

Dunno why I bothered - donked em all off in no time :( ;marks;

I don't mind the games, as long as they work. The STTs seem pretty good too.

I agree there Rod, the only reason I would play on there is the general standard of play was poor.

my only problem is that with them trying to fit a comp with 400-600 players into 3 and a bit hours even 4 hours then its basically who cane remain lucky

before the first break even uf you have doubled up your still struggling to keep up with teh blinds

but thats the problem of being so popular only way round this was to extend the show and get the presenters experts doing tag team {like they do on cricket comentary on radio)

i can see when sky actually start promoting the game more over 1000 runners to then fit it into the show would be impossible

another wy is to start at 7pm but dont start the tv show till 9pm

 They said everyone will be refunded their money, apparently this doesn't apply if you placed in the money, is this standard practice?

one would presume that 'everyone' meant 'everyone', but I guess the aim here is to ensure that no one suffers a financial loss as a result of the problems.  Anyone who has finished in the money is presumably better off than they would have been had the tournament not gone ahead, so I think that's fair enough.
