    Does anyone here play Texas Hold 'em online?

    i set up a SkyPoker account yesterday, some great tournaments on it for small buy ins. Very straight forward to play too.

    Anyone looking to join let me know and i can recommend you, this will give both of us a free £25 bet apparently.

    I have been called worse.

    I am in between,used to play a lot more live but finding the time got harder and harder so am playing online most days now.Were do you play Joe..?

    I have never played SkyPoker,to be honest none of the lads I play with have ever even mentioned it and they are some serious gambler's.

    Playing for the last 4 years on-line and live.

    Play on Ladbrokes and Full Tilt. Think i'll stick to them rather than try sky tbh.

    Glad to hear it I work for full tilt! We're not allowed play on the site tho :-( SO usually play on Paddy Powers. I find them the best for deals and bonuses etc. Just like the betting side of their operation ...

    yea i think Paddy Power is rigged to be honest. quit playin it bout 3 years ago. Played a tourney, defo FREEZEOUT, took a fella out, and he got his full racke back.(defo wasnt a split pot, took him to the cleaners). asked others at table "did anyone else see that", ....no reply

    THen got onto one of the administrators, told theyd investigate, never heard a word back!!...............

    that finished it with PP for me forever.

    Play pokerstars & full tilt abit now
