there is nothing that can be done about seating scripts. if you know how they work then you would know this. aside from rush/zoom/whatever fast-fold variant only games or some other drastic modification of games, it's literally not possible

if it was, it would have been done already

you think PS would take measures as drastic as make hsnl games zoom only if there were a better way? obv not

888 has proven their inability to stop bots. I have personally lost thousands of dollars in equity because of these bots, which I'm not happy about, but I can shrug it off. The problem I have is that even the fish are starting to realize that these are all bots and are either scared to play anymore, or are losing their bankrolls to them.

To add to that, when the initial accounts were being closed, I did not recieve a cent in compensation. 888 may have closed those accounts, but they just keep the money. It is disgusting how this site operates. The only thing keeping me on the site is that I'm VIP and it would take to long to get to a similar rakeback level on stars. If stars could match my 888 rakeback, I'd leave right away if things continue the way they are going.
I have only played for a few months on 888. I am now wary of playing against any Russians or members from the Baltic Nations/ex Soviet Union countries.

When **** goes down, its nearly guaranteed they're from these nations. Bots, seating scripts, campers. I think I'm entitled to be wary when I see dozens of usernames like "RUSSIANMAFIA" and "KGBBoss". Lately I see alot of players with Pakistan flags as their avatar. Nothing illegal there but still its just suspicious.

888Rep can you explain why the min buyin for $30nl snap is 20bb but the min buyin for $50nl is 40bb?

$30nl is a significantly less enjoyable experience because of the presence of ratholing short stackers.

Can anything be done to increase the min buyin at $30nl to prevent $30nl snap resembling the bad old days when short stackers were plaguing games all over the internet?

Down again, just I have flop tpgk against a whale in a 3bet pot.

888 Rep, where will the money from the pots I was currently playing go?

Do the players left in the pot share it? Does everyone including people who already put money in and then folded get their money back? Does 888 just keep it, knowing that it will be next to impossible to prove where the money actually went?

Despite the highest rake in industry, 888 just can't afford some decent servers.
