888 freerolls adios

[Claudiunm]

From time to time, they revamp the freerolls. Unfortunately, these revamps are always downward. But I'll never stop playing there. I really like 888Poker, especially because they have a policy of rewarding their player community with freerolls that are truly worth playing. I saw someone mention poker stars. What does Poker Stars offer that compares to the 10K and 3K freerolls offered monthly by 888Poker? Not to mention the Cardschat freerolls.

Those freerolls were a promotion, I imagine they were for a period, there are still the 450 and 500 freerolls, plus the sports.

Is there anything official from 888 about this? This has happened before where it's been a technical issue and they came back a day or so later.

 

[WolfyPP]

I've just seen they've reduced the level 20 freeroll by half and the winner spinner has been reduced from $500 to $200. Shame, looks like this is purposeful and will only reduce traffic to the site.

And the winner spinner has been reduced from $500 to $200.

now thats pretty desperate....at least that one they could have left alone but when you are in need u are in need i guess.

The world is getting poorer

Whenever one of the freeroll series ends (those 1k ones that had 3 per day), they don't appear in the lobby for a while.

 

[Poison91]

Did they release the $200 freerolls at 888 Poker?

 

[moots]

Did they add more of those small prizepool freebuys instead of the freerolls? I see a bunch of them in the lobby.

 

[Poison91]

I saw it coming, which is why I'm playing at seven different poker rooms. These kinds of things always happen. I used to play Full10 poker until it closed, and so did other types of rooms. It was worth it to use the winnings for a first deposit at several other clients.

And there was a $3,000 weekly and a $20,000 monthly prize. They also reduced the free Fabulous Winner prize from $500 to $200. I hope another freeroll campaign comes along. Let's wait and see.

I'll take a look at that Sportsfan Freeroll. What do you need to do to be able to play that freeroll?

You need to place a bet on any sporting event with any odds (you can even place a bet with a minimum amount of $0.10). You can only receive one ticket per day.

Good morning everyone, yes it's true they removed the $50 and $200 freerolls, but you can rest assured that they don't do this to save money because 888poker's biggest profit comes from casino games, they earn millions of dollars a day and what they distribute in poker freerolls doesn't even reach 1% of what they profit, soon they will present new freerolls. I think the site that offers the most freerolls is 888poker, there are monthly freerolls of $10,000 and $5,000, several MTT tickets of $500 and $1000 in MTT tickets of $22, $33 and $55. What other site comes close to this?

I think WPTG is trying. But not even close.

I know they have to make money, but they should have some loyalty to their players.

Loyalty to the players who only play freerolls?

 

[schtiuky]

I'm a recreational player and I see many more offers on GG than elsewhere.

Maybe its just me but I didn't see them.

 

[tagece]

I just registered on a U$200 freeroll. I did because is in the schedule than Cardschat one. I'm not a big fan of 4,000 players MTTs, but as I'm there already...

 

[Dimidrol2]

It was only a matter of time before free rolls became extinct like mammoths.

I think they have lots of leaderboards for loyal players.

There was an official announcement on the 888 poker discord (finally) apparently freerolls are only unavailable temporarily and they will return. Though there was no further information other than that. I guess we will just wait and see but the fact that they reduced the value of the winner spinner and lvl 20+ freeroll indicates that they will be lower prize pool freerolls going forward.

 

[wushibala]

I knew that sooner or later 888 would cancel those generous freerolls — it was only temporary. But still, huge thanks to them for that. There are plenty of freerolls left anyway, so there’s still a good chance to build up your bankroll.

 

[Mr.Ram]

I don't think it's a serious problem. The fact that there are fewer and fewer players and the guarantees for regular tournaments are decreasing is that the problem, or do you think the room should constantly give you freebies and not make any money?

Link/Screenshot of said announcement?

Looks like they got rid of the $450 freeroll too
