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.
