**The New and Official 888poker Players' Thread**

[checkAA]

If i can add to that above list.

Have an analysis made of Pokerstars/Party software and add the missing features in the next months. They are not hard to add and would increase the number of regs.

Please please please add a unique sound that plays when your hand is about to get folded due to timeout. Like a ticking-bass sound that Merge has or a screaming sound that PokerStars has. It cannot be very difficult to add for your developers!

Agree.





Also, mtts are already on synch breaks, have been for about a year, would be nice if people knew what they were talking about before posting

I'm using the stars timeout sound, its not that hard to modify it on your own.

The bigger problem is the focus steal bug, you'll only get warned for the last tale you have action on as it immediately jumps to the next table requiring action instead of waiting for you to act on a table before focusing on the next table

First, I'm not sure what MTTs you're on about. I can assure you I've played some scheduled tourneys last week which had different break times.

Second, even if all your MTTs happen to have the same break times that's of little use if you are engaged playing the last hand in one of those and lose half of the break. They should copy FTP's model.

I know they are on synch breaks (for the most part).

I was referring to the fact that the breaks start at 55mins past the hour regardless of whether or not you are still playing a hand. If you happen to get dealt a hand just before x.55 and the hand finishes at x.58 you only get 2 mins of a break.

As far as I know both Pokerstars and Full Tilt operated the break so that it started after the last hand finished and everyone got the full 5 mins.

Kinda ennoying if you are playing multiple tournaments for hours on end but only getting a break of a few minutes each hour.

Yes you explained the issue better, that is exactly what I meant.

There should also be an option to lower the volume of the sounds, they are awfully high comparing to other clients.

[888Rep]

There was an issue with the 888reloadme code.

The problem should be corrected, and the new code is 8882p2. This offer will be extended until the end of the month.

Please answer me, I am a customer that has withdrew all funds until I find out why you are ripping off customers that have no idea of this domant acct policy you have hidden in your Terms and Cond. I did not know about it, only I am a avg player, and I know enough to come on here to check stuff, but what about the 10's of thousands of players that don't know about this and do not know that if they contact you they can get their money back. Seems like a big waste of time and energy to have to do this just to rip off customers.

Also please respond to why this VIP at 888 is contacting me!!!?? ANSWER NOW!!! here is the copy and paste of the PM. I will not contact this person until I know what this is about. Thank you!

maybe its different time zones, but in australian prime time, every single tournament from the 3r to the $55 has had synch breaks for about a year now. maybe there are some other ones on the schedule that dont, i cant really comment on that.

i do agree that this sucks a bit and if you are involved in a hand it usually only means 3 mins break instead of 5, but this is a pretty minor concern to me really because if you are multi tabling, you have to be back for the first table anyway, so it doesn't really make that much of a difference.
