i assume the $5 would apply to SNGs, too, which i think you play. i would guess you almost always meet that.

from 888 email:

Get your hands on extra daily $1,000 Spring Fever Freeroll tickets by meeting 1 of 3 daily challenges:

Earn 1 status point in poker
Participate in poker tournaments with a total buy-in of $5
Wager $10 in 888casino

Im perplexed about the Spring Fever spinning event however. I was playing everyday and when I spun I received an email saying I didn't qualify unless I made a deposit. So why allow me to spin everyday if I cannot keep the awards? Anyone else receive such an email?

It's disappointing for sure, I've been on the site on and off for years.

Hi Johnny,
This is the US thread specially for US based players. You need to post in our other support thread that you have been previously posting in as these US promotions have nothing to do with the ROW players.

I swear, 888 support doesn't read their emails. Was sent a security token number even though I hadn't tried to log in for a few days, so I assumed somebody was trying to hack my account. I sent them an email asking about it, explaining that I hadn't tried to log in, but got the token, etc., and they send back some bull**** form email explaining what a security token is used for. "I hope that successfully answered your query."

Read the ****ing email before you send a ****ing reply.

That's not what the quote says, in fact that promotion text is very misleading.

I was away in the US for a few months so I couldn't play. I try to log on now and it tells me to download new software. Since I am in Canada, am I now downloading the 888 poker canada software?

888Rep, I am getting a "server down" message regularly when trying to look at my tournament tickets. Would you let the appropriate people know of the issue?

Sure but can you please give me your poker user name in case they need to conact you for more information?

Haven't played much lately, but last night played a $5 tourney to get the spring freeroll tickets. Saw on my phone that I also got a spin for something, clicked it, nothing came up, then I tried again it said that I'd already used up my spin. Maybe I got something and just don't know? Don't see any extra tourney tickets or anything. Is there a way to check this?

I have a $10 tourney ticket expiring tomorrow at 10am. If I register for a tourney before 10am, that starts later in the day, will it unregister me at 10am, or let me play the tourney?

If you register before 10 am it will not unregister you.

Latest e-mail from 888. I guess if I can go back in time and play a lot I can pick up my bonus.

Well done! You’ve collected 203 Status Points so far!
