Welcome to 888poker’s Weekly Deal, with all the best news, results and insights from the past week.
THIS WEEK: February 17, 2019
For the second time this year, we at 888poker offered a “RakeLESS Sunday,” which meant a full slate of online tournaments with no rake! Players must have loved it as they turned out in droves to compete for big, rake-free prize pools.
“Rihard4a” Wins $27,669 in RakeLESS Sunday Mega Deep – from $22 satellite
The $200 buy-in RakeLESS Sunday Mega Deep easily surpassed its $100K guarantee by attracting 507 players who rebought 225 times. That created a $146,400 prize pool distributed to the top 72 players including Christopher “NigDawG” Brammer (65th - $483.12), Sam “sammygrinder” Grafton (54th - $585.60), “PiktasVilkas” (21st - $878.40), “SchruteFarms” (11th - $1,756.80), “Prof_Plum” (5th - $7,905.60), and “SkallePer58” (3rd - $14,932.80).
After 12 hours 16 minutes, “Rihard4a” defeated “kudesnik2012” in heads-up play to win the title and $27,669.60 first-place prize, after he won his tournament ticket on a $22 satellite.
“CalmRevolver” Wins RakeLESS Sunday Main Event for $21,646
The $300 buy-in, $100K GTD RakeLESS Sunday Main Event saw 376 players take to the virtual felt, which meant a $112,800 prize pool was paid out to the top 54 spots. Among those to cash were “Juliangard” (26th - $789.60), Niklas “tutten7” Åstedt (21st - $789.60), “IHaveNoBoss” (10th - $1,466.40), and “vzb_poker” (4th - $9,024).
After “kiskutya23” bowed out in third place for $11,844, the title came down to a pair of Russians. After exactly eight hours in the tournament, “CalmRevolver” defeated “krakadiller” to win the title and accompanying $21,646.32 first-place prize.
You might remember that is September of last year, “CalmRevolver” took down XL Eclipse titles. Given he’s also a former Mega Deep champ, this latest title shows the Russian is a force to be reckoned with on 888poker.
Whale Ends After a Heads-Up Deal
The $1,050 buy-in Whale surpassed its $50K GTD by attracting 47 players who rebought 15 times. Among those to compete for a piece of the $62,000 prize pool were 888poker Ambassadors Dominik “888Dominik” Nitsche and Martin “MJacobson888” Jacobson, Sam “sammygrinder” Grafton, and Niklas “tutten7” Åstedt. Unfortunately, they all fell short of making the money.
The top six players got paid including “ifearpanic” (6th - $3,410), “Mekaljevic” (5th - $4,650), “instantfold” (4th - $6,200), and “spider4444” (3rd - $9,300). After 5 hours and 23 minutes, “DeuceofDuc0” and “Kroat.” Struck a heads-up deal. The former walked away with the title and $17,281.69 in prize money, but the latter actually got $21,158.31 for taking second.
“sNap36484” Turns $80 Into $7,424.37 Payday in Sunday PKO 8-Max
The $80 buy-in, $20K GTD RakeLESS Sunday PKO 8-Max had 399 players rebuy 114 times to generate a $41,040 prize pool, which was split in half between the regular and bounty prize pools. Among the top 56 to get paid were “YSoSerious7” (29th for $137.48 + $235 in bounties), “zinkAA” (16th for $264.70 + $130 in bounties), “Kroat.” (7th for $513 + $162.50 in bounties), Sam “sammygrinder” Grafton (5th for $1,026 + $321.88 in bounties), and “Matthew451” (3rd for $2,154.60 + $1,009.53 in bounties).
After 7 hours and 42 minutes, Belarus’ “sNap36484” bested Sweden’s “Juliangard” in heads-up play to win the title, $3,898.92 top prize, and $3,525.45 progressive KO bounty for a total payday of $7,424.37.
“4rn0ld” Claims Sunday PKO 8-Max Title for Lithuania
The $7 buy-in, $10K GTD RakeLESS Sunday PKO 8-Max drew a massive 1,749 players who rebought 630 times. That created a $16,653 prize pool spilt into $8,326.50 each for the regular and bounty prize pools.
Among those to get paid were “Andoverfists” (24th for $34.13 + $35.62 in bounties), “newtoncall” (12th for $59.11 + $50.05), “sokol1105” (5th for $416.32 + $137.47 in bounties), and “Fogh123” (3rd for $806 + $231.26 in bounties).
After 6 hours and 30 minutes, Lithuania’s “4rn0ld” beat Canada’s “Cheman99” in heads-up play to win a $1,458.02 top prize and the $717.90 progressive KO bounty.

888 will scam you
Watch out for this site. If you win they will deduct winnings. They've done it to me many times. Absolute rip off... then they try to make you feel stupid. I've already posted about them in another forum. Stay clear of these scammers.

Good afternoon. I had some issues with my HM2 and ended up losing all my database that contained all the hands I've ever played on the 888.
Upon entering the room I realized that all my hands played are still saved there, but I could not figure out how to import them into my computer.
Can you tell me if there is any way I can download these hands, or send them to me by email?

i had every intention of avoiding this but it has to be said i feel!i have quickly remembered why i lost the plot on 888 so badly...very quickly.thats without considering the fact that i emailed support about all the tickets ive won but havnt recieved...their reply was ,due to a technical difficulty...bla bla,youre 10c blast ticket is now in your account...that was the last one i won...it takes up to 72 hours...so where are the 4 $3000 freeroll tickets and the $1 cash that i won before the 10c blast ticket.so that aside,within no time at all it was clearly evident that 888 has the most blatant (random)card assembly of them all,honestly its like a little kid places the cards out with something for everyone then crushes them all on the turn or river...blatant is the key word here folks,only through being away from 888 for round six mnths have i been able to confirm that yes it is like that and no its not random by any stretch...it was EXACTLY how it was before and the specific difference in card assembly is so blatant it disgusts me...just telling it like it is,srry to all offended.AND I WAS LEVEL 90 AFTER YEARS OF DEPOSITING....still spewin on yas....u better believe im still spewing...gl at the tables all.:damnmate:
