Players should also keep an eye out on the Sky Poker homepage to find out whether they will put on additional Happy Hours!

If you are not around for one of the Sky Poker Happy Hours, why not participate in an exciting and tense Timed Tournament.

Played like a normal multi-table tournament, a Timed Tournament will finish once the specified period of time is over. At the end of the game, the prize money is awarded according to each individual players chip count. This major twist adds a fantastic layer of competitiveness to a normal tournament, as each hand could prove critical to the number of chips that you will end with.

Timed Tournaments at Sky Poker are available in three different lengths of time. Currently, they are 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes.

So head to the Sky Poker Tournaments lobby now to find out when the next Timed Tournament is about to start!
