Bingo! I had a hunch that (fair) question would soon follow if I said that. I don't want to derail this thread, so I'll Reply on my Diary later, if you don't mind. Someone was bound to ask sooner or later, which was why I pointedly said "TIKAY10" for tonight, & "tikay1" last night.

Thanks.

Thanks Ray. If this deal with Sky Poker goes down the drain, we're gonna be in a big hole-like hole, so the occasional support of guys like you might make all the difference. If we had just managed to get blondes to play occasionally on DTD, notwithstanding the rather clunky software, the deal would still be in place, & presumably we'd still be doing the Updates. Cake & eat it, & all that.

It's all nonsense, of course, but one player, who frequents both here & next door, truly believes I only play Aces. Bright chap, him.

now that we are best buds 4 eva, you can just PM me.  I prob wont play that much on SkyPoker but if the PLO games are good I might use the site.  So far I have only made two small deposits but would be happy to put a big chunk in (maybe £30 or £40) if it gets me £1000.  I havent read the T&C's but pretty sure this is how it would work.

Signing pre or post the blonde tie-up would not affect the Welcome Bonus afaik - the same offer is open to all.

As far as blonde is concerned, it does not matter if a player signed to Sky Poker 3 years ago, then lapsed, & was then re-activated by the blonde interest.

blonde are not paid on, or measured by, sign-ups. The Deal wiill stay in place if enough players sign up or re-activate their Acccounts. Sky Poker can tag the players we flag up to them & measure the income to the penny. Initially, we have until the end of March. If the numbers don't stack up by then, the Deal wiill end, there & then.

I have no understanding of how the Welcome Bonus works, but I would imagine it takes a serious amount of grinding to achieve! They don't give away that sort of money lightly, I would imagine.

Good luck, I hope you earn the £1,000 Welcome Bonus, & win the world whilst doing it.

Games over there are very soft you know. A lot of peeps told me that, so it must be true.

Good luck tonight.

I was busted by BELOVEDLtd, so he gets the League Bonus Points, well done him. Think I ended up about 45th. Played pretty bad.

I Finalled in the tikay Sleepie (huge field) but never cashed.

I'm close to the money, & in OK shape, in the Main Event, (30th of 55 at the mo, 260 began I think) & 28th of 53 in the TSP, from a field of a 190. So, I don't expect any Cashes tonight.......

Agreed, even if he was lucky earlier to spike a 2 outer against Joobs to KO her, woulda decimated him otherwise.

One Q guys, why is the payouts set up for a 10 handed tourn, when it's 6-handed?

Not that I'm complaining, 9th and all that...

i know it's probs a bit late to be raising this kind of thing, but tbh i haven't looked at it properly before now.  are the +5 and +10 bonus points for finalling/winning really necessary when the points are quite heavily loaded towards the top anyway?  could mean the league is sewn up pretty early on and put off participants in later events?

Meh - my mistake.  Told the Lads to back off and let me play it meself.  They gave out after the exit hand.  Think they know it all.  Hindsight imo.

As it is, nice incentives to reach that final six...

Are you able to say whether this level of support is enough to see this deal stick? Or is it dependant on increased activity outside of the league tournaments too?

Too early to say abut the deal.

It requires

a) sign ups

b) reactivation of dormant accounts/little used accounts

c) regular play

d) support of the leagues


Initial signs are encouraging, but Sky will be able to do a thorough analysis in due course.


As tikay has said, its pretty crucial that this works for us, so the support so far is greatly appreciated.

Cash play prolly just as important (if not more so) at the end of the day...no?

Absolutely, but the blonde player base (generalising) tends to be MTT players rather than cash grinders..so its a relative weakness

However the cash games on Sky are good. Dip in, even I win a bit.

+1 to Tighty's comments, thank you very much, this has been MUCH better thn I dared hope.

If we can think of a way where we can generate some cash action, too, it might just get us over the line.

I'll give some thought as to how, if at all, we can ensure supportive blondes get looked after. We've thrown a bit of money at it already, but if it works, then it's worth it.

Felt very much like the blonde of 5 years ago, this evening, with plenty of craic & banter.

Yeah, but I fund that, not Sky Poker. I doubled up Ecky, AndrewT, & EvilMatt in one 2 hour session last week. That's the most BI I've ever dropped in one night!

A re-match will have to happen. I'm on the Hi-Lo Tables most nights at around 11pm for a few hours, & MereDonk plays the role of my ATM.

Would love to see the re-match especially if it was organised for a certain time and day. Get people interested in it.

Think organised cash games in advance on here on the blonde ipoker site used to work well, maybe try those out, on the same night as a league game?
