888 rep can you get a badugi tournament going? Maybe a lower buy in so people could learn it. One thing that would set 888 apart from the other rooms should be it's wide variety of available games. If you make them, they will come...

theres a big difference. it reads half buyin but they mean half the rake right?
if its half buyin = yum yum. but i think its rake.
All players that registered to the promotion will be eligible for:

o 50% rakeback on all cash games until January 7th.

o 50% buy-in back on all tournaments until January 7th.

* notice the buy-in back is capped at $50 per week. A week is counted from the day the player registered to the promotion.
So you will get 50% back from your tournament buyin up to $50 per week and if your playing cash games you will get 50% of your RAKE back and that should be credited to an elligable players account usually the next day.

They are still being sent out so keep checking or you can give them a quick phone call in the meantime and ask them why you haven't recieved yours yet.

Did you register to the promotion? You HAVE TO REGISTER to be considered eligible for the 50% rakeback and/or buy-in back. If you have registered and find that your account is not being credited accordingly, please send full details (your 888poker uername, dates in question, games/tournament(s) IDs) to the support team and they will investigate and address your issue in kind.

If you haven't registered, it's not too late. Check your inbox for the mail or click on the relevant banner in the lobby to do so.

By the way, Happy Holidays!

All bitching aside(which IMHO is fully legitimate), the actual promotions themselves are really nice and I'm still surprised they are getting as little traffic overall as they are.

888 and WSOP easily have the best software layout IMHO. Party is gross looking and Ultimate is atrocious.
What do you mean by more up front bud? Any and all specific feedback in this regard is appreciated and will be considered for future promotions, so spill the beans.

Oh and THANKS for the software and promotions props -we'll only get better too.

888rep,

Can I get a little help here..I've posted this before.
I have gmail, so I don't know if this a gmail issue or what but the emails are not getting to me, and I've seen others players say the same thing (tokens, lost password notifications, and I see no promotion for this latest rakeback). Can you ask your superiors whats going on with this?
Next thing which is probably even more important is cashouts. I was told 5 business day is the cashout time and I requested a cashout on the 14th. The last 2 days I contacted support they have told me 24hrs it should be in my account and it is not. I'm still holding out hope it will be there today, although it is Christmas so I guess its possible it wouldn't happen today either, in which case tomorrow would be realistic. However, with the site being regulated by the state now (and not some offshore unknown) I expect that your payout times listed on your website to be accurate. I'm pretty sure you guys don't want people "filing grievances" for money that is owed to them, if you get my drift... Has anyone else tried to withdrawal with or without success?

Love 888. My favorite software so far and the promotions have been awesome. What should I do if didn't receive an email for the 50% rb? I've been solely playing on 888 lately so even missing a day is a beat for me.

I did not.. but was never told that I had to even when talking with support on several occasions. If that is the "issue", i find it interesting that no one mentioned it..

I would suggest that you wait until the 27th because even if it has been sent by 888 it may not be listed as paid by your own bank because of the holiday period.
Can you give support a quick phone call and ask them to subscribe you to recieve pronotional emails.

I still have not received this offer in my email. I deposited before this promotion and used a different welcome code. Live support told me to wait 24-48 more hours for the email. Pretty tilting playing without the buyin/rakeback as the promotion ticks away.

You must register for this great offer, so check your inbox for details on how to register. If you are not yet an 888poker player, you will get details of how to enter within 24 hours of joining or click on the relevant banner in the lobby to register and get your 50% back!

Run good m888s!
Is this only for new players, or new depositors? If we've previously deposited, will we get the email?

Clicking the banner just led me to a statement to respond to the email - no way to register without the email.

The email is maybe taking a bit longer due to the holiday period so please give it a little more time or maybe contact live support again just to double check.

I emailed customer support, and they emailed back:
After reviewing your account it was noted that you initiated your first deposit on December 4th 2013 and this promotion began on December 23rd 2013.

In light of this finding, this explained why you did not receive a mailer, as it was not currently active then.
Was customer support mistaken? How do I get this fixed?

Thanks

Can Nevadans play??? All I can see is you have to be physically be located in NJ. I like where it gives you free $10 unlike WSOP.com so i can get a feel about the client before depositing
