Limits and Rake

Tables stakes start as low as £0.02/£0.04 No Limit up to the larger £10/£20 No Limit games. The highest fixed limit game at Sky Poker is £20/£40 and the lowest £0.10/£0.20.

The rake at Sky Poker falls in line with the industry standard.

Player Traffic

Although Sky Poker is one of the newest online poker rooms around it has very quickly picked up a large loyal following. With Sky TV backing via the Sky Poker channel, on satellite channel 846, the long term prospects for player traffic look very good.

Playability

The web interface for Sky Poker is a unique way to introduce players to the world of online poker. It also avoids the rather irritatingly slow procedure of downloading any software - something which afflicts many of today's complex online poker rooms. Registration is fast and painless. From logging on to the web site to sitting down and playing takes only a couple of minutes. The lobby and tables are easy to navigate and all the usual features and functions are easily located and operated.

Software and Extra Features

Sky Poker is a new poker room yet the software boasts some excellent features already. Some of those include:

  • Sky Poker Points - Gain points from your play and use these for tournament entries.

  • Poker School - Video tutorials and poker tips from Sky Poker to improve your play.

  • Hot-O-Meter - Have this feature open and see a graphical opinion of the value of your hole cards. "On fire!", "Fold'em!" and "Rubbish!" are amongst the messages you might see. A useful guide for beginners who find it hard to fold pre-flop!

  • Hand Histories - As you play at the table, you can click for an instant hand history without leaving the action.

  • Folded Cards - Folded your cards early and can't remember what you had? No worries. Your folded cards stay on show to you below your seat.

  • Fun Avatars - Adopt your personality or mislead your opponents with someone else's! Fun animated avatars are available to represent you at the tables.

Customer Service

As you might expect from a company as large as Sky, customer service is first class. The fast responses to emailed enquiries are often the best way to find answers to your questions.
