Rigged

A scam like all others,what i hate the most is that i have a monster pair,i open big and someone call me and every time the flop is like a small pair like 552 or 775 and by a miracle absolutely every time opponent somehow has that card in the hand and make trips and beat me,every single time,only on this jammy site,feel sorry i left a good comment before but I'm glad i found it and change it in a bad one because they thieves,what are the chances that opponent has that 7 in the hand every time on a 7 7 2 flop,they should be check and the guilty ones jailed

Dirties poker I’ve ever played anyone…

Dirties poker I’ve ever played anyone with money behind on the table gets there 90% of the time because the know they create big pot for the rake back it’s disgusting how many bad beats you get it happens live at a table don’t get me wrong but this just takes it to another level

I expect some bad beats

I expect some bad beats, but lately its gone ballistic. One player was going all in a lot pre-flop and picking up the blinds and any placed bets. I get AA and call his all in. He's got 5-2 suited and flops straight flush. I only play one tournament a night for small stakes, so it's a bit of fun, but if you play for big stakes I would be very careful. They are eroding the skill factor.

Keep well away from this site

I have the good fortune to play on many different poker sites. This site however stands out for one reason and one reason only..it is a truly UNBELIEVABLE site, to give out an incredible amount of bad beats.. Bad beats are a part of poker and if you can't take a bad beat then poker is not for you. However on this site bad beats come every other hand especially if your in the latter part of a tournament and your opposition player has more chips than you, in poker its when you have big stack and your opponent has a little stack.The big stack will invariably win even with with a far inferior starting hand possibly as high as 99 percent of the time.The reasoning sky do this is they want you playing more games hence taking more money off you .( there rake)The cash games on here are no different ive been playing poker for 40 years and i can honestly say ive seen some run outs on here that can only be described as UNBELIEVABLE. The reason sky poker gets 90 percent of 1 stars is simple , your not allowed to give 0 stars .
If your new to the game or have been playing for while, be kind to yourself and find another site that doesn't consistently rob you with the most stupid amount of bad beats..people be kind to yourself and avoid sky poker at all cost..............

The site is rigged

The site is rigged. Not against you, but against the normality. You can still make good money there, but think twice when they give you AA KK or when you are quite sure that you're ahead. And the tournament there they rush to kick people out, so please be patient with your hand.

What a joke this site is

What a joke this site is. Don’t mind getting beat by a good player. But when your dealt KQ. Then the flop returns KQ7. I bet big then some idiot goes all in with 96 off suit, then gets rewarded on the turn and river card. Absolute joke of a site, this happens time and time again. Avoid using this site.

This site definitely needs looking into, it's too bad to be true, always getting done on last card, this happens too often, I'm sure the site is rigged. If you want a game of poker find a better one than sky, plenty poker sites out there but avoid this one at all costs.

Horrendouse

Horrendouse. You have johnmonty timmyrara and 1 or 2 more in every single turbo game. They all use programs that tell them the ev of each hand. what chance do any rec players have, Even the £1 mtts have people in them £80-100k profit jawzindawz kawaii420 and more. cash is the same you have the same players in every single lobby. dyms are bad too you have the same 5 players in every single game. sky dont care one bit as the get 10% rake double what most other sites charge

MInute Player base and bad beat central

It's the bad beats that get you. You go in with the best and 90% of the time you will get hammered. You can sit for a while waiting for a reasonable hand to raise like KK and you find yourself up against AA all too often. I quite liked the STT but it's the same player base each time and it's just boring. Cashed out never to return. Player base is just way too small. I'll stick to Pokerstars.

Played on sky poker for 12 years and…

Played on sky poker for 12 years and have just tried to log in to my account only to be told it has been permanently closed and is irreversible till 3019. Was told since sky gaming has been bought over by flutter and I have excluded myself from one of their sister sites years before they even bought over sky they have automatically closed my account without any consultation. Played on here for 12 years mostly regular and dont play on any other site so have been a loyal customer made friends and got to know the regulars, contributed to the forum only to be treated like this. Since flutter took over there has been absolutely no investment in the poker side, the software is outdated and crashes all the time, guaranteed prize pools are way down, player numbers have been diminished, i believe they now only have 2 staff members on the poker side so waiting times for live chat and phone calls are very legnthy. There will be no site left the way they are going and I think this has always been their plan. Absolute disgusting way to treat a loyal player of 12 years just because he excluded from a sister site years before they bought sky over........Midnightma

I should add if it wasn't for the flutter (stars groups) acquisition in 2020 of sky poker which has been devastating for the poker side of sky gaming in lack of funding tech updating, staffing etc... it's like they only want the betting and Vegas side of the company and will soon disband the poker and fantasy football side. I would give the site a 4 star rating as for me what they do have going for them that other sites dont is.....
1. Tikay
2. A great community of players, some players stream so you get to feel like you know them, most players come across as nice guys who make you feel part of the small community, a lot of players are friends with each other out with the site and meet up at spt's
3. The forum.... is a good place to have others advise on how you played certain hands and help to improve your overall play as well as just some good old banter
4. Smaller player numbers (only uk based players) make it easier for tourneys to finish in a managable time frame and not run for ovet 10hrs
5. All tournaments are 6 man tables
6. Feels more like being part of a club

1 star under flutter and 4/5 stars without flutter

I hope one day flutter will move on the poker side to someone that can run it properly and save it from ruin

Been on the site for over 3 years now

Been on the site for over 3 years now, with over 17k games played (heads up and tourney). It’s a smallish community and the regulars know how the others play and know how to identify the fish (like me).

I play the £2- £11 games. Tried moving to the £33 tourneys and got butchered.

Would recommend for rec players.
