Thepokerdb tracks 888 results from mid April on. Propokerlabs is better for 888 results. It does not include freerolls though

Anyone know the rakeback %s for different reward levels at 888? Considering a move and just want to make an informed decision.

Thanks, just to confirm, what is the "% back"? Is that percent of rake back?

Indeed the more points you amass the more cash back you will recieve back.

Well, small credit to 888 for fixing the check box in the tourney ticket section. Nice not to have to see the expired.

This could not be more incorrect.

The double points only double your status points, not the reward points.

Reward Points earned as a result of the doubling of the status points will be credited independently and automatically within 72 hours of being earned. They will be credited at the highest status achieved on the day they were initially earned.

Status points are multiplied by your color multiplier to become reward points, though, so it really does double your rb as I see it.

Any thoughts on running another rakeback promotion again? Something to get the traffic back on 888? It doesn't have to be as high as 80% but your site is pretty much dead compared to the other 2, and it seems you guys are content with that.

Also think your reward system is a bit off. The jumps are laughable. It looks like no thought was put into this at all. Something like this would be a lot better.

How are you guys getting your twitter freeroll tickets? Tweeted earlier and it's definitely not instant, does someone have to manually credit the accounts with one? Figured I'd take advantage of a free $500gtd tourney. 888 is by far the best for promos, WSOP doesn't run anything free.

False. Just a simple approval of license in the designated state - Nevada. Nevada and Delaware have signed an agreement to share player liquidity but it still hasn't happened. This was signed months ago.

Agreements/Pacts have to be made by each regulated state - Nevada, Delaware, New Jersey with each regulated country. Still many questions how the US Federal government fits into this.

Not going to happen any time soon.

I see you added higher stakes sngs. Yet like wsop.com you have completly removed 6 max turbo speed sngs. Can you please explain why? As this makes literally 0 sense.

Do SnGs ever go off on 888? I've tried registering a few times for a $5 but I am always the only person registered and it never gets any more entries.

They had a promo last weekend where you got 25% of your SNG buy in back and still hardly any ran. It's a shame.
