Sorry, Here it is

It's sad. No more the daily $450 freeroll and the $500 spinner freeroll now it's a $200 freeroll. At least for me $200 does not worth my time, the $500 was ok because you could cash in a few minutes, but now if you cash you probably going to win like $5 cents...lol
But this is the future of poker. Not many years ago, the daily 888poker freerolls were $5k. Probably in a few years will be $50

Unfortunately 888 has taken a step back in relation to freerolls, they also reduced the daily gift drops... but I think it's a great site to play micro satellites, for me it's still the best in this sense currently. They will come back strong soon!🤑

Сегодня они отменили все эти турбо-фрироллы на 50 и 200 долларов, но они всё равно были довольно малоэффективны. Похоже, им нужно сократить всё, что можно, в последнее время дела идут не очень хорошо.

this is very sad ((((

 

[DoruFish]

yes but the Sportsfan 500 tournament is with bonus prizes to be played...

 

[DoruFish]

In recent weeks at 888, all the daily freerolls of 500, 50 and 200 have disappeared for Romania, and recently the 450...

 

[choprav]

Yeah bit annoying but still plenty of freeroll satties that you can earn your way into good tournaments!

 

[monkeytilter]

One place the Freeroll is ever present..

 

[renisundernet]

When is 888 reevaluating eligible countries because they should allow for more participation imo.

My opinion: after many issues reported by players regarding money withdrawals, I believe it would be better if the CardsChat freerolls on 888Poker and GGPoker were swapped, if possible! Why? Because GGPoker doesn’t cause problems, and its tournaments are incomparable to those on 888Poker — for example, the $5.40 buy-in daily tournament with guaranteed prizes of $30,000 or even $40,000!

In my eyes, 888 is still a great site. You can also always win a few cents in the $200 freerolls with a bit of skill and then use them in the penny tournaments to win some bigger tickets. They also offer a $0.10 tournament daily where these small winnings can be used, and you can still build up your bankroll starting from zero.

However, it is indeed the case that GG increasingly tries to attract new players with their daily present and the freeroll series (poker league for German players) or the newly introduced 100K Weekly.

Both sides have their advantages and disadvantages.

I'm referring to players who want to win bigger amounts, not just 10 cents or $1! The opportunities offered by GGPoker are unmatched — and then… everything else!

 

[Nomahoners]

I’m thinking about branching out myself. Currently 888 is the only site I’m on. Yes they have withdrawal issues but if you are persistent you will get your money. Miss the little free rolls but they re free so….still got the monthly’s that I always seem to miss because of work. 00f

I like their sports book.

I'd vote against that. GGpoker doesn't allow play in someregions at all, sadly, where 888 does. 888 has some decent selection of games too. You can just cash out and deposit elsewhere if you're not keen on what they offer.

Yes, I also noticed that all the freerolls have disappeared. This is certainly unpleasant news. But for me, the most valuable freeroll at 888 is the daily Sportsfan Freeroll (with a $500 guarantee), where you can win free bets.

I don't find those freerolls after latest big update

Are they still running?

 

[Dimidrol2]

The decline of free online poker is a widespread trend

Yes, they run every day. And the guarantee hasn't changed.

 

[SpaceMage]

Yes I have been seeing a large reduction in the gift drop frequencies.

Hope they increase those frequencies back to normal.
let us hope I happens.
I am hopefull that they have said the freerolls will be ack.

poker sites like GGPoker are increasing their freeroll offering. May be 888Poker will see the error and remedy to lack of site freerolls.

The reduction of the $5 tickets seems to be too hard.

Dropping them from 100 tickets during a single tournament, to two providing 50 tickets, and now two providing 20 tickets is a bit harsh.

Particularly as it is harder to get the tournament entry tickets.

888 Poker is slowly dying, and to revive it needs infusions of sponsors. Players from Britain, ireland, and sweden are the ones injecting money there. Players from other countries mostly play freerolls, and there are plenty of Brazilians, but they are also poor.

 

[mr.fers_one]

888 also started slowly removing freerolls)) Well, wait, CC freerolls may also disappear soon ((as happened at pokerstars ((

Gift drop is irrelevant, you don't need one to get in those freerolls. And haven't for a while.

 

[Collie2022]

not a big deal since games for levels 40-60-80 are still there.

Played the 40+ , wasn't that many in it for the 50x£100 tickets.

 

[marco198121]

i know it is free, but the freerolls pay really bad comparing to wpt, party poker e ggpoker rooms

 

[Collie2022]

£100 one back at 6pm

 

[Sunz of Beaches]

£100 one back at 6pm

Wow how generous of them! 1st out of 2000 players pays like 6 dollars😅👍
Thats probably what they meant some time ago when they said freerolls will soon be back. Back with a blast they meant!
