At least make it available for everyone if you won't warn guys using it..
The Rep has been looking into this since the 1970s and not one player has been punished. Keep a list of all the players you see reported here and you will see them still playing. Even when reported several times they are still on 888.

The truth is 888 don't care because traffic is king on 888 and it is a requirement for them to be able to claim they have a lot of traffic as they are a publicly listed company and cannot afford to lose profit so they will make that profit by hook or by crook.

Players are just sheep on 888 so do what I done and stop playing there otherwise you will find yourself complaining here on a regular basis because your opinion or feedback is irrelevant to 888.

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

THIS WEEK: April 29, 2018

“bigblindbets” Goes From Winning Baby Whale to the Big Whale

The $1,050 Whale drew 65 players who rebought 26 times. Among those to compete for a piece of the $100K prize pool were Anton “anteen” Bertilsson, Niklas “tutten7” Åstedt, and “Sjapster,” though all fell short of making the money.

The final table of nine got paid including “boss7210” (9th - $3,500), “wellyxx” (6th - $5,500), and “CalmRevolver” (3rd - $15,000). After 7 hours and 47 minutes, it was the UK’s “bigblindbets” defeating Ukraine’s Roman “Romeopro33” Romanovsky in heads-up play to capture a $30,000 first-place prize.

It was the second Whale win for “bigblindbets,” who last April defeated a 310-entry field to win the $100,000 Baby Whale for $19,350.

UK’s “summuNNN” Takes Down the Sunday GREAT 8

The $88 buy-in Sunday GREAT 8 – an eight-handed tournament that starts players with 8,888 in chips – attracted 270 players who rebought 116 times. That surpassed the $30K GTD by creating a $30,880 prize pool that was paid out to the top 40 spots including “Pipedream17” (26th - $206.89), “Streusalz” (16th - $463.20), Jans “Graftekkel” Arends (10th - $617.60), “Fukuruku” (5th - $1,698.40), and “dmnln” (3rd - $3,396.80).

After 8 hours and 51 minutes, the UK’s “summuNNN” beat fellow countryman “BadModafoka1” in heads-up play to win $6,021.68.

“summuNNN” Nearly Goes Back-to-Back But “tieer999111” Stops Him in Monsoon

The UK’s “summuNNN” nearly captured a second title on Sunday in the $55 buy-in Monsoon, which crushed its $10K GTD by attracting 220 players who rebought 64 times. That created a $14,200 prize pool paid out to the top 36 finishers including “Fukuruku” (35th - $106.50), “YounPope” (22nd - $120.70), “Fleea_man11” (12th - $227.20), “proJJkeke” (6th - $639), and “Ladzsos” (3d - $1,207).

In the end, “summuNNN” was denied by Germany’s “tier999111,” who won the tournament for $2,903.90 after 7 hours and 20 minutes.

“checcmate” Wins the Mega Deep

The $215 buy-in Mega Deep saw 337 players rebuy 89 times in their quest to compete for a $100K prize pool. The top 48 got paid and included “neverfoldQ5” (36th - $570), “PridvorD” (19th - $970), Jans “Graftekkel” Arends (9th - $1,750), “Canette_15” (5th - $5,250), and “TrollKonst8” (4th - $7,750).

After Canada’s “mndlssbrnt” exited in third place for $10,750, the title came down to “genbab10” and “checcmate.” After 10 hours and 33 minutes, the latter prevailed to win $19,250.

Thursday Cube Runner-Up “tupastacerdo” is Up for the Sunday Challenge

The $109 buy-in Sunday Challenge saw 345 players take to the virtual felt and rebuy 125 times. A $50K prize pool was offered up to the top 48 players and among those to earn a piece of it were “Namlleh” (43rd - $240), “Pepepepepe.” (30th - $340), Roman “Romeopro33” Romanovsky (20th - $485), and “summuNNN” (5th - $2,625), who was at his third final table of the day!
After 9 hours and 15 minutes, “tupastacerdo” defeated “Jesusisback” to win the title and $9,625 top prize. Back on April 5, “tupastacerdo” finished
runner-up in the $10,000 Thursday Cube for $2,100.

What to watch out for:

what recrs REALLY want are pkos!
min. 50% of your reg. mtts have some overlay and are overcrowded with regs and that little mtts with big bounties are full of fish and crush the guaranties....

.... I understand that you need a major software update to implement this (I hear a major update is coming), but with no communication reg. your timeline & pko plans you will loose more and more traffic, a huge series with standard mtts will not change that and you just risk huge overlays there.....

just my 2 cents....

Hello 888 Rep,
If players wanted lower buy-ins with bigger guarantees, why did you take out tournaments with $5.00, $12.00 and $30.00 buy-ins and replace them with tournaments that have $5.50, $16.50, and $33.00 buy-ins?
Furthermore, during the XL series, the Blowfish, Catfish and Swordfish tournaments you have replaced would have reached the "bigger guarantees" anyway.
So, can you guarantee that after the XL series has finished 888 Poker will continue to run the BIG Fish series?
BTW, I like the satellite schedule. Very generous.

Support got back to me again. They are aware of the problem but it will not be fixed on the next update, no time line yet. I guess I'll have to wait it out some more.

Welcome to 888poker’s Weekly Deal, with all the best news, results and insights from the past week.
THIS WEEK: May 6, 2018

“Leibi180” Wins GREAT 8, Moorman Exits in Third Place

The $88 buy-in Sunday GREAT 8 attracted 237 players who rebought 101 times. That meant a $30,000 prize pool was up for grabs, and the top 32 finishers collected a part of it including Mike “Pipedream17” Dietrich (25th - $225), “josef_shvejk” (15th - $450), “GangstaGo” (8th - $825), and “stevechenko7” (4th - $2,550).

888poker Ambassador Chris “888Moorman” Moorman made a deep run at the title, but he ultimately came up two spots shy busting in third place for $3,450. After 9 hours and 24 minutes, it was Switzerland’s “Leibi180” who defeated the UK’s “Hateeeeem” in heads-up play to win $6,075.

It was the second win for “Leibi180” in just over a month. Back on April 3, he took down the $5,000 Lightning 6-Max for $1,515.

“GangstaGo” Claims Mega Deep Title for Ukraine

Speaking of Ukraine’s “GangstaGo” he was also at the final table of the $215 buy-in Sunday Mega Deep, which attracted 311 players who rebought 107 times. This time he was able to close it out by defeating “PokerJoe332” in heads-up play after just over nine hours in the tournament.

“PokerJoe332” very nearly added a Mega Deep title to go along with the $15,000 GREAT 8 one he won back on April 3. That said, the $14,500 he received for finishing runner-up in the Mega Deep was quite a bit more than the $3,675 he got for the win.

Others who finished in the top 40 and earned a piece of the $100K prize pool were Niklas “tutten7” Åstedt (36th - $580), Paul “Senta99” Senter (20th - $1,000), Mike “Pipedream17” Dietrich (10th - $2,000), Alexandru “alexos888” Baron (6th - $4,000), and “Flopzilla_XD” (3rd - $11,000).

Two-Time WSOP Bracelet Winner Mark “AceSpade11” Radoja Wins Whale

The $1,050 buy-in, $100K GTD Whale surpassed its guarantee by attracted 86 players who rebought 42 times. That created a $128K prize pool paid out to the top dozen spots. The trio to cash but fall short of the final table were “omnomonoomn” (12th), Anton “B.Mitchell” Wigg (11th), and “hellohellooo” (10th - $3,200), each received $3,200 in prize money.

888poker Ambassador Chris “888Moorman” Moorman was at another final table, but he bowed out early in ninth place for $3,840. Others at the final table included Fabricio “DrMiKee” Gonzalez (8th - $4,480), “Pimmelspeck” (5th - $8,960), and “KimberSlice” (3rd - $17,920).

After 9 hours and 3 minutes, Canada’s Mark “AceSpade11” Radoja bested the UK’s “f0mEiTseGal” to win the title for $35,200. Radoja is a two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner. His first came in 2011 when he took down the $5,000 NLH Shootout event for $436,568, and two years later he won the 2013 WSOP Event #16: $10,000 Heads-Up Championship for $336,190.

Sunday Challenge Ends in Heads-Up Chop

The $109 buy-in Sunday Challenge drew 322 runners who rebought 150 times. That offered up a $50K prize pool paid out to the top 48 players including “Sinatra48” (33rd - $285), Chris “888Moorman” Moorman (20th - $485), Alexandru “alexos888” Baron (8th - $1,125), and “MAMOHT_T” (3rd - $5,375).

After 8 hours and 52 minutes, a heads-up deal was struck between “BlackBrahman” and “kiskutya23.” The latter received $8,046.46 and the former $8,703.54 and the title. It was the first Sunday win for “BlackBrahman” since January 28 when he took down the $10,000 Sunday Deepstack Monsoon for $3,128.85.

Brazil’s Francisco “chiconogue” Nogueira Wins Turbo Mega Deep in Less Than 4 Hours

The $215 buy-in Turbo Mega Deep surpassed its $15K GTD by attracting 70 players who rebought 23 times. That generated an $18,600 prize pool paid out to the top 12 players including Anton “VnilaVader” Herrmann (12th - $511.50), “Imogenjaxon” (9th - $511.50), “Nemekiss” (4th - $1,767), and “Fukuruku” (3rd - $2,604).

After just 3 hours and 54 minutes, Brazil’s Francisco “chiconogue” Nogueira defeated Germany’s “NIMAJNEB16” in heads-up play to win $5,068.50.

What to watch out for:

Big Fish
Tournaments

We’ve listened to you, the players, and are proud to offer more tournaments with lower buy-ins and bigger guarantees.

As a result, we recently introduced our new daily six-tournament series called Big Fish.
