any news about the superturbos structure? i've noticed u add daily a new stake for the superturbos(now running up to 520$)...the structure still sucks a lot though... me and other regs would grind a couple thousands a month if you'd change the structure

4 percent rake is a deterrent too, although the structure is relatively worse than the rake.

Cassava are anything but slow with withdrawals and they probably offer more funding methods than anywhere else. There are many things to complain about but cashouts are not one of them.

I never play the freerolls they email me about. How much value am I losing by completely ignoring them?

Probably not too much. If you talk about the $888 and $1k freerolls. I don't play them either, because there are usually like 1500-2000 entrants, and the min cash is less then a dollar, you can win over $10 if you reach final table. Huge wasting of time. Those are for the players who have a $10 bankroll.

888 are safe. I'd say quite safer than pokerstars right now. I just wish they would fix their pop-ups - it is already bad that each time I log in I have to tolerate a pop-up but why do you force users to open the popup with microsoft internet explorer!!??? Let the popup window open in the default client browser IE is **** - personally I use mozilla/chrome. One other thing I noticed is that when I click one of these popups it takes a relatively long time for the window to appear/load.

also any timeframe when (if ever) we will be able to play poker on our iphones?

Is there anybody using a "multi tabling" software other than Key Poker?
Key Poker could be good, but there are many issues with the software for me.
You can set hotkeys, it can auto arrange tables, auto close pop ups, activate windows under mouse, and some other stuff.
I tried the custom table layout today, I had to set slots on the screen for each table, but when I started to play, it was a big mess. My tables are overlapped and I couldn't see where I have to act, table image remained on the screen for the non active tables (can't really explain this in English), I wanted to type in the chat, but I couldn't because of hot keys, and it did all kind of stuff to me. Anyway it tilted me so hard I lost 3-4 buy ins.
Pop up closing works good, table activation under mouse also works, but could be better when tables are overlapped.
So I'm looking for something similar for 888. Any ideas?

+1 it is hard in this day and age to find companies still advertising their products through IE. I also know this code is not hard to modify, but they still won't do it. You don't get the cashier window though? That's my #1 complaint with the software and I found a post on the 888 forum about it from July. The rep there states the problem can't be replicated or that we have a corrupt version of the software. I have uninstalled many times and cleared the registry, and it still keeps happening. It's not like my balance is 0 and they need me to deposit every time I log in.

I think the 888software is really good, I can see why it has been awarded. But little things like this really stop it from being close to perfect.

I don't have that issue. Maybe my antivirus is stopping it from happening because I have ad-block selected and I don't see any 888 ads

Or you could just trying turning it off in the client.

Settings->game settings-> then uncheck "Pop up the game window"

That makes no difference for me.

Hey buddy,
Could you please be more specific about your request to improve the structure. What would you like different specifically?

Just started playing last week and I must say the site is very fishy! However I have 2 problems.
1. My sound only works occasionally. If I want to play I have to reset my PC to get it to work.
2. I see spelling errors all over your site. Its spelt with a P not a K.

Make it possible to rebuy in a rebuy tournament before the first hand is played. If you win the first hand now, you cant rebuy because you have more than the starting stack.

Sorry I couldn't help. That worked for me.

I'm pretty sure Key Poker software prevents focus stealing on various clients, but that costs $30.

I had the sound problem, too. Another poster suggested running the client as administrator, and that fixed it for me. Only problem is you have to do this every time you start the software if you want the sound to work.

Please tell the software developers, to fix the table position issue as soon as possible. I tried to play sng's on two monitors, but it was really annoying when a new game started, and I had to resize the table, and move it to the empty slot, while other tables where I had to act were popping up, and I timed out too many times.
Or at least a new table should be automatically the same size as the others. Even the ongame software can do that.
