Can't/dunno how to edit my post. 888 has been down for me most of the day. I downloaded the new software, is that the problem or is it other? Is it just me? Don't really want to un/re-install but if its just me then that's what ill do.

Cheers

If it is still not fixed then I suggest you reinstall the client but make sure you save any notes that you want to keep.
Thanks!

I want to discuss the following question: there are a lot of freerolls on your site, but almost all of them are with rebuys and addons, which does not at all contribute to the improvement of players. The whole game comes down to the fact that from the first seconds the whole table goes all-in. The losers immediately buy up the chips and get confused again under their feet. Such a game also has a right to exist, but I would like to try to learn how to play poker.

The all ins happens in almost every game even the higher buy in games. It is a part of poker now as a lot of players try to amass chips early to give themselves a better chance of winning the games.
The games are free and it is up to the individual whetether they want to addon or not.
Thanks!!

Thanks Boss, I guess it was just me. Reinstalled and its working fine. I even won 0.15 in the lucky chip. Maybe I should sit out every tourney!

 

[Nomahoners]

I posted too soon I guess. Lobby opens up now but when my table pops up all I get is a blank white screen. Any chance you can fix this in 30 min? I was planning on winning the Cardschat CDN freeroll haha. I entered a 10cent blast just to see if that would work. It didn't. I won 0.25 though. Maybe sitting outs my thing! Software updates shouldn't be tested live until all the bugs are out.

Hi. I wanted to know why I can't go to the casino? I'm only 75% loaded, that's all. I fear that my bonus may burn out before I enter

Welcome to 888poker’s Weekly Deal, with all the best news, results and insights from the past week.

THIS WEEK: December 16, 2018



Matheus “Yattag0” Dahdah Captures Sunday Mega Deep Title for Brazil

The $215 buy-in Sunday Mega Deep snuck by its $80K GTD by drawing 284 players who rebought 136 times. That created an $84,000 prize pool that was paid out amongst the top 40 players including Simon “Isildur1337x” Mattsson (23rd - $840), “progree69” (16th - $1,260), “Life0nMars” (7th - $2,520), “GangstaGo” (4th - $6,720), and “ShipGold” (3rd - $9,240).

After 10 hours and 11 minutes, Brazil’s Matheus “Yattag0” Dahdah defeated “Duckface01” to capture a $16,380 first-place prize.

“NoTrustever” Turns $22 Into $4,356 in Mini Mega Deep

The $22 buy-in Mini Mega Deep saw 866 players take to the virtual felt and rebuy 344 times, which surpassed the $20K GTD by creating a $24,200 prize pool. The top 117 players got a piece of it including Ole “ole_schemion” Schemion (87th - $55.66), “888pruha” (43rd - $87.12), “SanyaKalach” (22nd - $111.32), “LeonBY” (6th - $978), and “bluecheek” (4th - $1,754.50).

After “Naiklez” bowed out in third place for $2,347.40, the title came down to Latvia’s “NoTrustever” and Canada’s “MrYoungShark.” Just over nine hours into the tournament, the former prevailed to take down a $4,356 first-place prize.

“eltxupacabra” Wins Progressive Bounty in Turbo Mega Deep

The $215 buy-in, $15K GTD Turbo Mega Deep had 67 players rebuy 17 times, which created a $17,640 total prize pool ($9,240 in the regular prize pool and $8,400 in the bounty prize pool). Among the dozen players to get paid were “scellone94” (9th for $254.10 + $50 in bounties), “HateH4teHate” (5th for $877.80 + $525 in bounties), and Kenny “SpaceyFCB” Haellert (3rd for $1,293.60 + $125 in bounties).

After just over three hours, “eltxupacabra” defeated Sweden’s “Madeon1994” in heads-up play to win the title, $2,517.90 top prize, and the $2,750 progressive bounty. Meanwhile, “Madeon1994” won $1,709.40 plus $918.75 for his runner-up finish.

It was just the latest win for “eltxupacabra” in 2018. Back in March, he won the Mega Deep for more than $20K, and then in May won the XL Inferno $50K Crazy 8 for $9,500.

The Sunday Deepstack Monsoon Doesn’t Break the “Dam4666”

The $55 buy-in Sunday Deepstack Monsoon featured a $10,000 GTD, which it easily surpassed by drawing 198 players who rebought 91 times. That meant $14,450 was up for grabs and paid out to the top 27 players including “WhosToClaim” (19th - $144.50), “GramNaKartke” (11th - $253), “mugggggy” (6th - $722.50), and “Legooolas” (3rd - $1,698).

After 9 hours and 37 minutes, it was Greece’s “Dam4666” besting Lithuania’s “Raise1In.” to win the title for $3,107. The win came two weeks after “Dam4666” won the $4,000 Twister for $1,337 and a month and a half after he won the October 1 $10,000 Monsoon for $2,150.

Luck of the Irish Prevails in Monsoon as “casco38” Captures Title
The $55 buy-in, $10K GTD Monsoon attracted 221 players who rebought 72 times, which generated a $14,650 prize pool. Among the top 36 players to get paid were Mike “Pipedream17” Dietrich (32nd - $110), “ZDamian” (23rd - $125), “Dablinov” (9th - $278), “nacho_scocco” (5th - $850), and “mpompos6” (3rd - $1,655).

After 6 hours and 48 minutes, Ireland’s “casco38” defeated Sweden’s “NOeTKAKA” in heads-up play to win the title and $2,996 first-place prize.

Hello,

I just wanted to leave feedback about your excellent promotions.I really do appreciate them , the new promotion $3,000 Warm Up Freeroll is once again super.

What about some regular speed of those? I fully understand why they are hyper turbos , I don't think it is necessary to mention the reason.I don't want you to make all of them regular speed but why don't you mix once in a week one of my suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Oh my God, with all the problems mentioned, I want more money drop on your website, sorry at all, but with PokerStars, there is never a problem like this, I have included in your room since I believe ten years, but I dare not deposit money,

 

[MatMackenz]

Any reason why I am unable to manually enter a bet size using my keyboard?? I believe this has cost me quite a bit, only being able to raise 2x or 3x sizes preflop or use the 1/2 pot buttons.

Not cool.

To withhold info is the same as a lie. I just found the poker club tab im the tourney section. I had no idea about these additional free rolls. Maybe there are others here who never knew.

I may be having problems but the customer service is the best Ive ever experienced over any other site.

What info is being withheld? Maybe the PC interface is pretty lousy, but I think 888 is upgrading this soon. Until then check the tabs lol..

I was refering to the ‘ poker club ‘ free rolls i just found out about after 6 months of being on the site. I considered not mentioning that because it would just bring more competition. Im sure most people know but maybe some are as daft as I.

I have a question about your Deposit and Withdrawal methods. I am from Germany.

I was using the whole time Skrill for Deposit or Withdrawal. Last week I realized,
that you removed Skrill. But I saw, that you still had PayPal for Deposit and I opened a PayPal Account therefore. I thought, this could be my standard method for the future in your room. But today, when I got all confirmed with PayPal, I just
saw, that also PayPal is now removed. Is there any chance, that you will bring
back one of this methods?

I also saw, that you also still offer Sofort Banking. Now is also the question, would this be an alternative or will it also be removed soon?

Have you not got the option to deposit via paypal?

 

[whiskers77]

Have you not got the option to deposit via paypal?

No, unfortunately not anymore, altough last week it was still there. These are the only options, that are left so far:

Ask the deposit assistant and they will tell you if you can use it or not.
I asked the question a couple of weeks ago and got this response,
PayPal, Visa, and Sofort are the preferred methods for Germany at this time.

Thanks,
