Additional Comments: I know this is some plot driven mess but come on. How many assumingly intelligent women would, go to a town she has never been to, meet a man in a bar, dress up in her sluttiest dress to go to the man's house, to play poker with a group of men she never met before? Oh, and I forgot to add, she is the only woman there. If Adam is her friend, wouldn't you think he would question her at least a little bit about where she is going and who with? He just got to GC himself, he knows nothing about Brad, I don't even know if he knows she is going to meet Brad. For all Skye knows, maybe they plan on playing strip poker with her, and having a gangbang after. I don't know but I found that scene to be very strange. People who meet each other over the internet are told to always meet the person in a public place, never go to their home or invite them to yours.

Message: So do you think that Skye is so good at cards because she cheats? I mean, getting a good hand is a good bit of luck. I always thought that being a great poker player has less to do with actually always getting a great hand, but psyching out your opponents into folding because they think your hand is better than theirs. If she's winning because she's getting all the good cards, like ending up with a pair of aces . . . then maybe she's cheating.

Message: As usual, especially lately, the Y&R writers aren't going in for subtlety! This woman has hustler written all over her face, as would be freakin' obvious to anyone who's ever watched a movie with a card- or pool shark in it. But Y&R aren't taking any chances that we won't figure out what she's up to. You're right, IRL she'd have to be a little more cautious. A big-stakes player like David could certainly turn violent when he inevitably caught on to her con.

Message: If she was in Vegas wearing that outfit at the poker table it wouldn't make a difference if it was 12 noon or 12 in the morning. But ....this is a stranger's house with all unknown men, she didn't ever ask if there were other females playing. I don't know, this is just too bull crappy for me.

Message: Skye came across to me like a woman who fears nothing. I thought Karen was formidable till I saw Skye with Adam.

Message: Wait until Monday's (U.S.) show. She has method to her madness, as my old chem teacher would say.

Message: I agree. I think this storyline is very lame.

Message: Good points. As I mentioned in another post, Skye strikes me as a gal with serious thrill issues. No doubt going to a stranger's house and playing with a bunch of men she's never met is all part of the risk for Skye. She looks like she could eat all of those boys alive anyway. In her spare time I bet Skye also goes skydiving, tow surfing, and bungee jumping off tall buildings.
