Welcome To SkyPoker.com

The “gimmick” at Sky Poker is that you can play live poker online and then watch yourself on TV. Poker players can play in live, daily televised tournaments on Sky satellite channel 846. Outside of this, there’s not a lot to the site, but it is fun. They offer Texas Hold ‘em as the only variation of poker, and don’t have too many poker promotions, but hey, what other site broadcasts your games live on television? Providing multi-language and multi-currency options, Sky Poker is a reliable and adequate online poker room. The Sky Poker Community is also a great place to gather online with other poker players to discuss poker, ask questions, and make suggestions about how Sky Poker can be a better online poker room.

Sign-Up Bonus for New Players
The welcome bonus at Sky Poker gives new players up to £500 in poker bonus cash. The amount of poker points you earn within the first 30 days of your first deposit will determine how much cash you will receive. Your bonus will be awarded in full at the end of the 30-day period. To earn the full £500, you will have to earn 7,500 points; to get the minimum bonus value, earn just 150 points to get £10. There is no minimum deposit amount, but you will obviously have to deposit something in order to begin earning points.

You will receive a 500-point credit when you register, but these points do not count towards the bonus. Only those points earned at real money raked cash games and real money tournaments will count towards the bonus. Points are awarded on cash games depending on the blind levels that you play at. For every £1 in tournament fees you pay, you’ll earn 10 poker points.

Poker Software & Games
Sky Poker is a Flash poker room which means no download is required and play is instant. The software is one of the most impressive features of the site; in fact, coupled with the fact that you can stream your game live on TV, it is the best thing about Sky Poker. The 3D Sky Poker graphics and avatars are also worth mentioning, as you can control their actions and mannerisms in a realistic way. The lobby is nicely organized with all the game stats you need to know, and the features are all industry standard, if not higher. The Hot-O-Meter is one of the unique features available on Sky Poker. This option presents a graphical depiction of an opinion on your hole cards. It may tell you to “Fold ‘em!” or “On fire”!  Sky Poker offers Texas Hold ‘em Poker at all limits and stakes from micro up to high stakes games.

Player Promotions & Rewards
Sky Poker’s Cash for Points system turns points earned within each calendar month into thousands of dollars in cash money. Also, the obvious huge perk at Sky Poker is that you can watch your game on television, presented in realistic graphics that mimic the cool blue tables that you play at online. You can also join in a £250 Freeroll for only 100 points and win real money. Other featured tournaments include £400 Deep Stack, £7,000 Guaranteed Open, and the £1,500 Guaranteed Primo.
