I have a software problem with 888 on an old Macbook Pro 2011.

After each 3-5 hours I play, and while I play, the software will suddenly get stuck on "loading" mode (showing the "spinning wait cursor"). Then I will have to Force shut the software. If I log in the software again I still cannot sit on the tables, as as soon as I rejoin the games, the software will go back to thinking mode.

But the odd thing is, everytime this happens, other things in my computer will stop working too (cannot play Itunes, cannot play YouTube videos, etc).

The problem will solve by itself if after I close 888 I wait around 20+ minutes.

While I cannot 100% assure this comes from 888 software, it only happens when I am playing on 888.

It does not happen while I use Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Garageband, play online on Steam, or do all sorts of demanding activities. Only while I am playing on 888. It's weird that the bug seems to affect other parts of my computer.

Anybody else had this problem? Thanks

Hello!

I would love to add your tournaments to my daily schedule but I simply can't get used to the new software. Is there any way we can revert back to the old one?

All the best

Hello guys, NOTsnalex here
I would like to apologize for sitting out at the tables. I had no clue it was a rule that you had to play once it’s 4-handed, but I do now, so won’t happen again
Reason I don’t reply in chat is because I shrink the table to a small size to fit the screen, which makes the chat box disappear

888Rep

The russian bot group has 3 new accounts:

Mozhrol, T1gerT0es, Fant0m and bitcoin

They have been reported several times, but nothing happened.

If you play on Blast $100 and see them please report them to operation@888brands.net if you feel cheated! If not, good luck when you play against them and you will never get a refund This is pretty important as they are on all Blast levels!

If you play Blast at 888 poker, I can promise you that one russian, ucraine or kazakh player will be at your table.

I've had my suspicions regarding 'Bitcoin'. He plays 6max cash as well.
Also the player 'whaaaat' seems to be a bot.

Mozhrol, bitcoin and T1gerT0es are still playing. Every player plays 8 hours then comes the next player. They all started their first $100 Dollar games between 9th septembre and 11th septembre Fant0m is also part of this group. Please report them to support

They already played 30.000 games together and 888 does nothing, as I think about whether they work together with these players or these players have someone in the operations team who works together with them.

The initial request came from one of your regular players that detected a change in population of blast players recently and he suspects something is fishy but is not experienced enough to put his finger on it.

His claim is that there is a collective of Russian accounts that cheat the whole player pool in multiple ways.

First they don't play against each other nearly close to the frequency everyone else seems to play against them, meaning they avoid each other and cheat the remaining players for equal traffic.
- I can confirm that after 5 days of playing blast games

Further they all have the same pattern of play, I can get into detail if you like me to but would rather not make this info public because bot users could benefit from knowing what we as coaches look for when trying to determine IF someone is a legitimate player OR cheating. I would be happy to elaborate more in private.
- The player claimed that and again I can confirm that the patterns are BY FAR too similar. Here is clearly a decision help at work that give the exact same advice to a group of players who then follow it blindly OR this is a bot who runs completely independent from player interference.
One way we usually make sure we face a real human being is writing to them on the tables. NONE of the Russian players I now strongly believe are using a bot ever replied in the chat. Not one word or smiley, nothing.

In addition these accounts have been created recently, some of them within 1 week and they immediately start playing the highest games on your site for 6 hours and more every day. That should trigger an alarm in your system to begin with and I find it outrageous that you allow this to happen.
On pokerstars where I play the highest games (500/1k buy-in) I have been under investigation even though my account exists for years and I was a proven winner in this exact format for years. This security measure made sure to ask me exactly how I became good in these games, where my money is coming from to play the with, I even had to record myself from the outside while playing multiple sessions to prove I am not using any prohibited software.
That was for ONE INDIVIDUAL.

You allow a whole group of players to abuse your other customers without any security check or interference? How is it possible that there are 6 russian accounts on your site that have been created within half a year and share the lobbies, all do the same in terms of decision making to a point where it can't be human anymore AND also all show the same patterns with registration?
They even all play the exact same amount of table simultaneously, how many more clues does your security need to take action? I have only played for 5 days as mentioned but from what the player who started this investigation(using his own money to pay me btw) says this is going on for months and many players have been cheated for loads of cash.

I recommend you do something about this situation immediately, I also recommended the player to contact a lawyer since this is very obvious and you do nothing to protect him or other players in the pool, you do not offer a fair game to players at this moment and one has to assume there is maybe even a connection between 888 and this group of ALL RUSSIAN players that behave in such obvious ways that it's hard for me to imagine you don't detect it.

Here is a list of all players I detected as participants in this group:
Jarlaxle008
Unallyeed
FrozenSense
Kheiron_51
nacissistik
thunderbol

If you are a player and spot one of these names on your table you should immediately take note and report it. If the 888 support does not protect you you have to do it yourself. Note how many games you play with these accounts or keep track as closely as you can since the next step would be trying to get a lawsuit together for the fact that 888 knowingly allowed these cheaters to take your money. I say this because I see that players have been reported here before and nothing happened. Also I was informed that he guy who contacted me to look into this already wrote multiple messages to 888 support who apparently doesn't care.
All accounts are closed --> no single dollar is refunded! 888 keeps the money for themselves? What about the rake they took from their players??? and they have three new accounts now T1gerT0es, Mozhrol and bitcoin. Does 888 also waits for another 4 months to ban these players until they have stolen our money?

There is a legal requirement that we have to fulfill first before we change it but you can rest assure you can safely use HUD on Snap tables.
