Couple things, IMO;

- Structures need to allow deeper play.
- Max buy in of $215 in the series and a lot of $20-$55 buy ins.
- Satellites. Lots of satellites.

I don't think the site is strong enough to run an MTT series higher than this. The buy ins are affordable for all, which in turn means the satellites are cheaper.

And in general the site needs more $20-$55 reg speeds.

is there any way to play the instant play on the site and not feel like its 1991 and im playing oregon trail on a mac in elementary school?

can you resize tables there to what size you want? or can you choose where you are seated

i dont see any way to even 8 table because the tables are either stacked on top of each other or tiled tiny, sucks cuz sometimes there are lots of good games going and id like to get an extra 2 running but its not really possible

please raise the cap for in client cash games to 8 also! please!

How much points do you earn per $1 in rake you pay? I see it requires 60k point to earn vip status.

Just checked and its $1 rake for every 2 status points. So one needs to pay $30000 in rake a year to get vip?

Was it the first two hands of heads up? If so, that's standard depending on the position of the button during the last hand of 3-handed.

So i deposited into 888poker using a pokerlisting code and got a bonus. I read the bonus pays out in $10 increments. HOw much rake does one have to pay to release $10? Or how many status points does it take?

I will highlight your post for you but I can't see them raising the 6 table cap anytime in the near future but it's aleays possible I suppose that they could have a change of heart.

No, it was the 4th or 5th hand since we were heads-up.

Please upgrade the bonus webpage. The way the information is currently displayed is really sub-optimal and a bit confusing.

The waitlist bug that works like this is pretty frustrating: client informs me a seat has opened, I select the seat, select the amount I want to buyin and select okay, get informed the seat is saved for someone else. I'm sure it's been brought to attention plenty of times here; but, seeing as it's an annoying bug, it can't hurt to keep trying to get the point across.

How long does a withdrawal through Entropay usually take? I initiated a withdrawal on 10/24/13 at 14:00, and it's still 'awaiting process'.

Thank you sir (or ma'am?). That's a very helpful link, very well presented; if the bonus page was anything like that, it'd be a big improvement.

This is my first withdrawal from 888, and I can't recall if I ever verified my account. I haven't received any emails concerning the withdrawal and was beginning to wonder if the cashout would be just processing indefinitely without any notification. That page clears it up.

Thank you for the swift response and for addressing all of my issues. It's great to see you posting in this thread frequently. Keep up the good work!

You can also highlight that there are many of us who would happily argue that the cap should be reduced further

I can agree with one of your 3 statements

However, the "perfect" number depends on which stakes you are talking about. It's easy to see when the number is too high. You look in the lobby and see long waiting lists and few open seats; which isn't what 888 wants the lobby to look like.

There are lots of open seats below .10/.20, so if this is what you're talking about, then I agree the cap could be higher

i dont think the waitlist bug is still a problem

what you are encountering now is that since you only get 15 seconds to take your seat unless you do everything perfectly you wontmake it in time and someone else will get it

its even worse when you have just left a table but decide u want to go back and you have to answer the additional "you left with xxx and must bring that back to the table is that ok?" question, that adds an extra 1 or 2 seconds which is brutal when u only have 15

which is why i keep spamming this thread about us needing at least 45 seconds to take a seat
