@888Rep,

I usually cashout using Skrill, this time I decided to try a Wire Transfer. I cashed out 125 USD but I only received 65 USD. Both, 888Poker and my bank account are in USD so I do not think there is any exchange rate comisión. I talked to my bank and they said their charge was less than 1 USD. Is 888Poker using banks that charge almost 50% of transfers in commisions? Could you help me to find out where this exesive commision is? (Username: _KingSlayer_)

HUD’s are not allowed in Snap.

But since PT4 and caption will not offer HUDs in Snap, there is no problem to use them.

Thanks for your assistance. I've had a response now and it seems I did finish in the top 7, and will be receiving the phone.

I'm a bit surprised to have had to chase so hard for a prize that was very openly marketed, but that's not a reflection on you personally.

It takes time to issue prizes and for sure you would have received yours in due course without chasing it up.

player yudayudayuda, a new reg at 1k and 2k, always sits down within 0.001 sec whenever a recreational player sits. He always sits to the direct left of them. This is only possible with a seating script. He always has the best seat at the table.

I'd kindly ask if you would investigate this

Hello,
I made a deposit more then 3 weeks ago and have still no money on my 888 account.

I choosed wire transfer as my deposit method and wanted to deposit $1,000. Because my bank account is in € and the bank account where I had to transfer is in € as well, I calculated the amount in euro which was exactly 879.29 €.

I followed the instructions from the 888 poker cashier.

After 2 weeks (27th July) I wrote an e-mail to the support.
This is 9 days ago and I still got no response.

The livechat never worked so far for some reason.

My 888Poker Nickname is exactly as here (Waaaghbozz).

Dear 888support,

Can you please give us an update about all this? Are the mentioned players in the threat (https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...poker-1772229/) bots? How about paying the losses to the victims? I've played a lot against these guys, but not received a dollar back yet from 888.

Awaiting for your response, thank you.

No response on my question? Please bare with me as I feel used by these "bots" if the case from OP is true. I just want to know if you already refunded people or still not refunded everyone yet as I have a big sample on the accused accounts?

Thanks again.

What about HUD on SNAP tables. Is it allowed now? If not, when 888 will deal with those who are using PokerTracker HUD on SNAP tables?

Are you sure they are dealing with my issue?

888 snap hud is allowed now ???

PokerTracker 4 now supports a HUD on Snap tables and this wouldn't have been added without the information being provided by 888. If you want further verification you can contact your poker site support.

Thanks again.
The bots/AI abusers are mainly from certain countries to the east of Europe. They undoubtedly continually siphon money out of the system, never holding a significant balance. If a site does catch them, any balance seizure is likely to be minimal, and therefore you will see very little back, if anything at all. These bot rings will be professionally run on an industrial scale at this stage in online poker's evolution.

I feel for you, but this is the reality, I'm afraid. Software abuse is rife, and the sites that get on top of this problem will be the ones that survive longer term.

Recently, despite the significant decrease in traffic, there've been quite an wave/fluctuation of new regulars. It seems like a lot of them created new accounts instead of using olds ones.

I guess, people do it, either because they were blocked or in order to receive
rakeback. Additionally, it is an advantage to be unknown and have all reads/stats on existing players.

Some obvious cases (but there are much more)

fastintop14 plays now as _fastintop_
reg2016 as el.suertero
ratatuj as ratatata1

and i'm not completely sure, who was "CommonRaii" before, but he thinks it's funny to take identically looking nick as a high stakes reg "CommonRail"


@888 rep

Is that allowed to create new accounts or play from account of a family relative or a friend?
Could do investigate this and give a statement if it's legal..
Also, you would get much more names just looking for matching IPs, people are playing from..

No this is not allowed.

Hello,

On 05.03.2020 I wrote to the 888 poker support and asked if is it possible to set limits on buy-ins and block the cash game, as it’s possible on Pokerstars.
I had the answer only on 24.07.2020 (after 4.5 months!). They said that I couldn’t limit games and set limits, but I can be disconnected from the brand. Now I can’t enter on my account and cashier. I answered them that asked about setting limits, I didn’t ask to block the account. I haven’t some problems with a game like gambling addiction. The history of the game shows that I play on the plus, only at micro-limits, I have never lost large sums at all, I play poker for my own pleasure for amounts that are not too important for me. And as I wrote a few months ago, at the present moment that my letter is generally irrelevant.
They answered that my explanations were forwarded to the appropriate department and they would answer me in 3 days. It has been 2 weeks already, there was no answer or unlocking of account and cashier. Then I called to support on 29.07.2020 where a girl apologized for the misunderstanding on the part of 888 poker, she said that my appeal was pending in the appropriate department, my account and cashier should be unblocked, but I had to wait a few days. More than a week has passed since that time, and there was no answer or unlocking of account and cashier.

On my account I have around 480$, there are also some tickets to tournaments, which eventually expire.

My name in 888 poker - Maksim7.

This situation arose due to misunderstanding on the part of 888 poker, thanks to them for their concern, but in this case it is unnecessary and incorrect. I would like to continue playing in 888 poker, I play for fun as a hobby, I like this poker room, the structure of tournaments and SNG in it, Snap-poker. But at least I would like to immediately get access to my money, since I have violated absolutely nothing and the solution to an elementary situation has been delayed for more than 2 weeks.
