this was posted in the internet forum thread by a 2p2'er and not 888rep. Not seen anything about this anywhere else.

Hi m888s,


Great news -we have a new feature that will be released in the 6.17 version of the 888poker client and this facility will allow deals to be made on the final table!


We are excited about the release of this new feature and want you to be among the first to make a final table deal on 888poker. To make this happen we’ve set up a $200 guarantee tournament (55¢ buy-in) that will go live today (29 June). In order to be able to take advantage of this feature, you must be on the 6.17 version of the software. If you have not done so yet, click here to download it.


Note: Once you have made the final table, we ask that you make a deal so that we can ensure that this feature works as intended.

Made the Sunday version of The Swamp $2,000. Let's hope that helps boost it.

Please download the latest version from 888poker.com. At this point, ONLY the English version (PC client) supports the Deal functionality.

Please PM me your SN and I will have support contact you to understand the issue. I am not aware of such a problem, and I am not encountering this problem on my PC.

We have slightly changed the format of The Shot:
1. It will no longer have a rebuy
2. The fee has been reduced to $73+$2
3. The GTD has been lowered to 3k
Hopefully if the changes are successful, we can raise the GTD back up.
Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Good change.

How did the deal test go? When do you expect it to be rolled out fully?

personally, would play it if it was 5-6 min levels cuz 6max turbo it's more fun.
the hyper thing decreases the level of fun since its too fast.

It went well. I think it is a very good feature although there were a couple of remarks we will address regarding the deal presentation. You should be able to start making final table deals around mid August if there are no delays.

Not having it rebuy will help keep it a bit deeper too. 6max hyper is fine imo. Having it at 73+2 is really awesome.

Hi 888 Rep,

Can't find it to quote (meybe other thread) but I saw you were making some of the STT buy ins more suitable for people who can play steps, to increase step traffic. This was taking place next week.

From a selfish perspective that's great for me.

I also think it might help the step traffic significantly if you made the $35 mtt's into $30.

I know the Wednesday and Friday challenge $35's are popular and so there may be a backlash here. What do people think?

But certainly for the others it seems to make sense?

Same goes for the $27 and $25 buy in mtt's.

Would love to play a $30 deepstack in the evening!

Can this be considered?

I don't think 888 has the playerbase to support another high buyin. 888 Definitely shouldn't do what Stars did and overload their schedule with too many games. The games are already becoming very reg heavy.
