Player "blowjobama" shows all symptoms of seat-scripring.

He plays tone of tables and every time when someone joins the table he seats immediately.
It's physically unreal during playing 8+ tables.

Please investigate.

Does 888 have any technology to detect seat scripting? Or does 888 rely entirely on its players to report it?

Could the players offer to share their detection techniques so that 888 could identify seat scripting proactively?

They obviously don't fear punishment because its not even hard to spot and they do it all the time.

My advice to any player joining 888 and wishing to play $1/$2 cash or higher is to just click the seat see if someone insta seats beside you. If they do sit but sitout and see who it is and report the knob. They are ruining the game.

This does not have to be instant either as some others have it programmed to sit after so many seconds. Easy to spot because if the interval is same everytime you can be sure its not a human doing the clicking.

Clean the trash from your site 888 or you wont have any legit players left. You have enough problems withtraffic dropping because of your own recent failings and it would be a shame to see this once great site fail due to mismanagement.

Yes they do is the answer but there is a lot of other aspects to detect like bots, collusion etc so you can imagine how busy it is for the fraud team so it is a big help when the players send us the information.

I want to make a public complaint about how dodgy 888 is. I have been a member for 6 months with a verified account. In that time I had a bit of conflict with one of the regs on there, just typical thing that happens when you are always battling someone.

So 1 week ago this reg, somehow gets MVP status, and starts to think they run the place, and 2 days ago threatened getting me banned, and now suddenly today my account is disabled, and 888 is requesting notarised copies of my verification documents that i have previously sent in.

This is outrageous and utterly unprofessional that you allow some members to abuse personal vendettas and get people banned. This new MVP is now publicly boasting about reporting a bunch of members they don't like, and settling old scores. I will obviously not bother with the site anymore but want to let it known how this place operates. Utter disgrace.

He's not doing much more against you than what you are doing against 888poker. Although perhaps he gave more evidence.

Welcome to 888poker’s Weekly Deal, with all the best news, results and insights from the past week.

THIS WEEK: December 17, 2017



“MalakiasCF” Wins 3 Titles in Single Day –
Takes Down Mega Deep, Whale and Crocodile!



It was a historic Sunday on 888poker as “MalakiasCF” took down three of the most prestigious titles offered on 888poker – the $100,000 Mega Deep, $10,000 Crocodile, and $120,000 Whale. You’ll read about all of those events in more detail below, but know that the man from the UK overcame a combined 679 entries (including rebuys) to win his three titles and $55,577.50 in prize money.



The title complement “MalakiasCF’s” XL Inferno title from back in May. That is when he bested a field of 933 players to win the $44 buy-in Event #63: $30,000 Mini Quarterback for $7,862.



It’s also worth noting that had “MalakiasCF” won these three titles during the upcoming XL Blizzard, which you can read about at the end of this update, he would have won an extra $10,000. That’s because anyone who wins multiple XL Blizzard events will win cash prizes ranging anywhere from $1,000 up to $1,000,000!





“MalakiasCF” Wins Whale for $33,000



The biggest win of the day, which was $33,000, came when he finished as the last players standing in the $1,050 buy-in, $120K GTD Whale. That tournament attracted 83 players who rebought 26 times to create a total field of 109 entries.



Among the dozen players to cash were “Madeon1994” (9th - $1,600) and World Series of Poker bracelet winner Christopher “NigDawG” Brammer (7th - $5,100). It took “MalakiasCF” just shy of eight hours to clinch victory.

“MalakiasCF” Bests “patrickhenry” in Mega Deep



Another of “MalakiasCF’s” wins came when he topped a field of 347 players, who rebought 102, times in the $215 buy-in, $100K GTD Mega Deep. It took him over 10 hours to do it, but eventually he prevailed over Canada’s “patrickhenry” to claim a $19,250 top prize.



Speaking of “patrickhenry,” he nearly won a XL title himself. Back in September, he finished third out of 822 players in the XL Eclipse Event #101: $100,000 Sunday Challenge, good for $11,460.
“MalakiasCF” Clamps Down Crocodile Title



The third and final win for “MalakiasCF” came when he conquered a field of 90 players, who rebought 31 times, in the $109 buy-in, $10K GTD Crocodile, which actually surpassed its guarantee by creating a $12,300 prize pool. After 6 hours and 45 minutes, “MalakiasCF” added $3,327.50 to his bankroll, which may have been his smallest win of the day, but still nothing to turn your nose up to.
Winning a Winter WonderLand



The $109 buy-in, $100K GTD WonderLand Main Event saw 880 players generate 308 rebuys, which formed a total prize pool of $118,800. That was distributed to the top 117 players including “AKyle89” (19th - $546.48), “LifeOnMars” (8th - $2,435.40), and “ROYALJAGUAR” (5th - $5,987).



After nearly 12 hours of play, it was Malta’s “stolbre29” who prevailed to win a $21,384 first-place prize.
GREAT 8 Ends in Two-Way Deal



This week’s $88 buy-in, $30K GTD GREAT 8 tournament, which starts players with 8,888 in chips and plays eight-handed, attracted 340 players who rebought 132 times. That created a $37,760 prize pool that was paid out to the top 48 players.



Among those to cash were “lufEEE” (13th - $509.76), Troy “S.Janowski” Quenneville (7th - $1,038.40), and “Ocanado014” (3rd - $4,059.0). After 9 hours and 50 minutes, Brazil’s “rafte” came out on top to win a $6,812.71 prize after striking a heads-up deal.

What to watch out for:

From January 18-28, the XL Blizzard will play out on 888poker, and it’s slated to be one of our best online series yet. From must-play events such as the $80,000 Opening Event, $50,000 Crazy 8, $250,000 High Roller, and $1,000,000 Main Event, to brand new promotions, this is one online festival you’re not going to want to miss.
We’ll be offering a series of new promotions, including big cash prizes to anyone who wins multiple events ($1,000,000 if you can win five of them), a “Bubble of Bubbles” tournament, and the return of the Champion of Champions event.



The fields will be chock full of qualifiers, but you’ll also have to contend with full roster of 888poker Ambassador including Dominik Nitsche, Chris Moorman, Bruno Foster, Denílson, Sofia Lövgren, Natalie Hof, and Parker “tonkaaaa” Talbot. Likewise, the newest addition to the team, Brazil’s Vivi Saliba, will be playing.
Get all the details on the XL Blizzard here.

My nick is danil8697 and today i was blocked with reason of using AI like i'am bot or something. I have no words to describe how angry i am at the moment. i am ready to prove that i didn't break any rules on 888 in all possible ways. I am very upset about this huge mistake and that it will take long time to have a mail discussion with 888 support. If any people could help me to solve this problem a little bit faster i would appreciate it so much. I am real person , i didn't use ANYTHING , i am ready to prove it and i need your help to do it faster. thank you

I'm trying to figure out the best return on gold tokens. A $10 bonus is 1000 coins but so is $10 straight cash! That seems pointless (why go for a bonus when you can get cash). Am I missing something here?

Also, I see you can get some small stakes tournament tickets (eg 2x$3 tickets) can these be used on HU SNG?

Mike Haven

had a look at this theme and i am totally shocked. nobody proved anything to 888 and they got banned. can't believe this is happening to me . So if 888 really has investigation department and they really do their job there is a hope for me . Otherwise i just lost my account and about 1800 $ on it for ABSOLUTELY nothing, amazing...

There is a folder with the sounds used by the client:

C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\pacificpoker\Poker\media \Sounds

You can go and replace it with PS or Full Tilt sounds or whatever.

Btw, could you add more freerolls? You give us those measly tickets for jackpot tournament and such and you only run them at peak times; most of us don't get to play every day and tickets keep accumulating. I have 29 tickets right now and since you give me spins every day, I get more tickets than I consume.

So after waiting 10 days instead of 5 I finally got this:

MuckPls we are truly sorry for any inconvenience that you have been caused. The issue is under review and being investigated.

Please note that this matter has been escalated to our technical team for further review. At this time, we kindly ask that you allow up to 5 business days to receive a response relating to this.

We suggest you allow the time-frame mentioned in order for a resolution.

So another 5 days wait ONLY TO GET A RESPONSE FROM THEM!

You need to drop the rake in all Sngs from heads up onwards. It doesn't make sense as to why you have eye watering rake and dead lobbies. Take a look at the Stars SnGs and change your rake to the same as theirs and people may play but you're just losing money by having no one play them.

I log on to 888 and only play MTTs, and it appears I'm not the only one, because you'd have to be insane to pay the rake in any game in the SnG tab when other sites are less. Why has no one noticed that the games are dead and the rake is too high? Someone needs to tell someone high up at 888 that 10% rake on a HUSNG is ridiculous but I feel this will all fall on deaf ears.
