You would think before entering the US market they would sort issues out like this, and their buggy software.

Even party has a policy about camping.

I also emailed my VIP manger about the freerolls and if i had any tickets, he didnt know of any freerolls and asked if i could be more specific. I emailed him a link to 888reps post with a screenshot of the freeroll lobby. He just emailed me back saying that the post is over 2 years old. 888 where do you find your support?

I will send this info over to them guys, thanks.

As regards the freeroll I guess he mistakenly looked at my join date rather than the post date but please resend it back to him with a screenshot to the game which is already in the poker lobby under the ALL tournament tab.

Forgive a noobish question but why do they camp on tables? What is the advantage?

I assume this has already been covered but I warn players about the 888-group based on a few things.

1) Very selective support. I had an issue with them, contacted them several times over the years regarding the issue (will mention it below) but with no luck.

2) Shady affiliate people. They are pretty famous within the affiliate industry to be very shady people, rarely responding and being very unpredictable in general.

3) Odd behaviour. This argument obviously need further explenation. I wrote about the story before but me and thousands of people claimed their 888 casino bonus which offered 200$ and via blackjack the EV of that bonus was about +175$. They paid everyone out but afterwards they banned all of us even though it was clearly within all the rights of the bonus and t&c. Normally I wouldnt care as long as I got the money but now with a mobile client, a kinda big network + some half-interesting vip-deals then I wanted to get back and play. I told them about the story and said I would only play poker. They said no. Then I said that I can even pay back the 100ish$ or 200$ish i got from that bonus even though I didnt have to and they said no. Talked to some people that have connections but they just say that it is impossible to solve issues with them and that is why they tend to avoid working with them.

I guess all in all stuff like this (not might sound frightening) will show you that people in charge are morons and perhaps something similar to FTP will happen.

hi,
I know that 888 had a webpage where you may find an evidence of clearance the bonus, like welcome bonus or other types of bonuses and you could see in chunks of 10 $. Now that page doesn't exist anymore, the only option is that you ask an operator to tell you how much you've cleared the bonus.

Why on earth you don't have that page anymore?

I don't know why this was done but i'm sure that there must be a reason for it but I will forward your concerns to them.

I asked this question about a month ago ITT and got a couple answers but still don't understand the benefit to the campers. Not that the posters didn't explain it well, just that I'm probably too noob to understand it.

Based on the level of outrage by the regs ITT, I assume it's really hurting the games and hopefully will be addressed soon, hopefully before throwing animals is added.

Hi ,888 rep , Here is some useful information on the ethical nature of the browser download on ie.

Apparently I have a screenshot of a "GOLD BAR" box that gives "POCKET ACES" when special feature is activated.

does anyone else get a "gold box" when they receive pocket aces?

*

I believe 888 poker owned by cassava have several issues with their servers and network because I am receiving time-outs on servers, have multiple in-browser disconnects, I believe it has something to do with javascript host and java.The underlying problems with my pc seem to bear no malware/spyware etc.

my dns report is here included but shows some very strange 3rd party connection hosts.:

among the google website on my browser which I don't use google ,also there is the java vp connection and also a particular vc media player which under dns I don't know where is hosted.Also liveperson.net is for the cashier .Ocsp VeriSign im unsure about but seems to be thwarte certification. Its interesting to note the DNS report here on the 888 poker.com websites servers. nothing but 3rd party host connections attached to its servers.

Hi ,This one is from my personal experience with 888 cassava.

I have 2 screenshots here to post of tourneys that I have won/placed in for cash yet I receive lesser amounts .It seems I win amounts on the browser based software but then I am given lesser amounts .This happened the other day but has been frequent on many occasions before in the past.

[IMG][/IMG]

someone tell me how to get screenshot onto this correctly , ive tried imgur but not sure how to do this at all here please admin.

hi , thanks for updating the 1st picture whoever done this , I need to show the other picture as well though to show the diff between the tourney pics..

This one above shows I was indeed paid $5 , but the other screenshot shows I was only paid $3.50 support says there is nothing wrong !! even emailed support sent off screenshots and argued with them tirelessly over this malfunction seems something is not very good with the browser version client software . here is the other pic if it can be translated or converted please support or Mike haven "moderator of the Moderrots"

*

the above pic I sent which doesn't work from imgur ,who knows im new here .

The above picture clearly states the same tourney id number as the one that paid me $5
yet when I finished the game the place only awarded me $3.50 ,total contradiction as to what was placed on the tourney itself.

888 clearly have something wrong with all their softwares ,even the download I cannot put on my computer as it says the download is unsafe to use on my local network .

what have you got to say 888 rep? please by the way ive been a member for 4 years.
I also maintain that pokerstars has genuine downloads and genuine "verified publisher" as its download but 888 cassava poker does not , and neither does it have secure download or certificates to say that the program is safe to use.

Totally differently run in comparison to stars software.

*

Thanks to "westoz" here for the help

once again thanks for correcting the pictures. can anyone post the screenshots I have also input of the "gold bar" aces feature?

I have these screenshots on my computer and have sent them in the last posts but if poss please just to recap here they are again ,sorry to mod if I seem to by overinflating this thread ,just need to get the screenshots on to highlight how many issues 888 actually has . Ive been a member for 4 years and not once has their support dept given me any indepth help or guidance.



*



*

any chance of seeing the last 2 screenshots please , theres a lot of 888 players that need to see this ! including their support rep who seems half the time to be invisible in helping anyone out. regards

no whenever you get dealt pocket aces " your avatar gets highlighted and the whole box turns GOLD.......support would u like to comment ? this is prrety serious since Ive never seen this before on any such hand display ..

NO it does not mean its my turn to act! the GOLD BOX/BAR that covers my avatar that holds pocket aces is some sort of workable feature ,hopefully 888 tech support gives me and other players some answers here please.

The box does flash when its your turn to act ,but this is not the same so don't be confused. cheers

I think you need to re-evaluate what you just said because according to my sources and records this is not possible .

it says the download is not safe and comes from an "untrusted location"

can we confirm identity of site publisher please, as with pokerstars the download is safe and secure to download and comes with a verified publisher yet 888 this is not possible on your download software. why do you think im using the browser client log in software for?

It wont let me download on my pc as it clearly states ,file is from untrusted location /and not in my local network

*

do we just go ahead and download "untrusted unverifiable location software" onto major high end machine for pro poker gaming ?

Im just thinking 888 support or rather cassava "enterprises" is too lazy to get proper Microsoft windows authority certificates or programming might be wrong , something funny in the way they issue the thwarte certificates , ask Goblin_888 he knows especially since hes probably paying extra income on the withdrawal amounts another obvious programming error . Ohh and lets not forget about paying our big blinds twice ehh

1 thing to note chat host of the 888 poker program of the west! Im a guy who has spent 4 years on the site , spent over $5,000 playing the games ,Ive played the horse race challenge main event over 10 times never actually won the event in all that time ,and I have won nothing but this lousy chipset and frigging tshirt they offer. Ohh and the 888 poker coin , but that actually went into my brothers grave last year when both my brothers passed away .

What Im saying 888 rep is that your site is pilfering off of pplayers pockets on a daily basis and you provide next to no support ,no effort to getting these bugs or whatever issues fixed...how about we petition to get the site closed? then you would be forced to do something seeing as though the company is on the London stock exchange and all that .huh well ? what you think 888 rep...

It wouldn't matter anyway merny complaining because you get no-where, the gaming commission in gibralter have already been sent a whole downloaded pdf filed complaint form as to my 1st complaint ,hand written to the commission and not even so much as an email.
Secondly since their rep/hosting/affiliate site chat host ,since these people are based in new York or some other random inadequate place then theres no much chance of me playing here any longer, All my support issues have not ever been addressed ,they said there is a technical team ,they have not replied and as far as I know have done nothing to fix any such problem in 2 years since Ive known them .
They input all these other funny features like egg throwing and such ,I think its a joke ,.!

Real players don't want to be playing on a site generated for stupid donk players and people that never fold /call with the worst hand each time and beat my hands all the time.I know because Ive virtually played everyone on the site to know what im talking about.
whilst I have played a lot theres always others that have played a lot more and yes im not gonna up myself and say im the best ,im always learning at poker ,its an ever evolving game ,but on this site 888 its not pokerstars /its not run in such stupid lazy fashion.
I wouldn't bother complaining because they just use excuse after excuse .You think Mr Mattingly cares about it all ? no course he doesn't same reason shane warne always enters every major event on the site yet is no-where to be seen .! its not rocket science to work it out here .

Im done playing on the site tbh , Ive lost a lot more than just a poker game in the past few years ,I lost a whopping 11k usd real money on pokerstars last year holding aces and then pokerstars bans my account ,what more can I say .I hope to be part of pokerstars next year once my ban is over but to be honest I cannot say the same for 888poker .The site I have always constantly lost on .Every game gone bad /every major event busted out of ,just had enough. support don't offer anything of value in order to maintain accounts at 888 either .

SEEING THIS GOLD BOX IS NOT A PROBLEM THEN MICK?

HOW DO YOU SEE ANYWHERE IT IS NOT A PROBLEM?

DO YOU GET A GOLD BOX HOLDING POCKET ACES LIKE THIS?

ANYONE CARE TO COMMENT THIS IS BROWSER BASED CLIENT SOFTWARE 888

As you have already been dealing with support on these issues then i'm afraid there is nothing more that I can add.

i wouldn't say it was serious issue, prob so bug or promotion. Or just showing you that you have, the ace and the ace

Im just thinking 888 support or rather cassava "enterprises" is too lazy to get proper Microsoft windows authority certificates or programming might be wrong , something funny in the way they issue the thwarte certificates , ask Goblin_888 he knows especially since hes probably paying extra income on the withdrawal amounts another obvious programming error . Ohh and lets not forget about paying our big blinds twice ehh
you don need to worry about this part

Nope it doesn't bother me. I don't get the gold box. You must be special.

I saw you post in high takes PLO thread asking if odd_oddsen and another reg colluded against you to take your 11k. You couldn't understand how you lost with AAxx 3 way in PLO.

After that post I can't take you seriously I'm afraid. You sound angry you lost money and are looking for someone to blame.

This is the worst site I have ever had the displeasure of playing on, seriously I would advise to go to more reputable sites to play

Frankly, it outrages me the way 888 avoids all discussion of it's service policies. I don't blame 888rep for this; if his management won't step up and provide him with policy statements when needed, there's nothing he can do about it.
Just had to troll through 15 pages or so to see if good old 888 rep answered my questions - STILL no answer I see.

Lets try again, for the fourth time (lol) :

If my complaint to 888support is not being dealt with appropriately, how and where do i take this further? Does 888 have a complaints procedure?

I feel it is now appropriate to let the poker community know why I am asking you this, thus:

The reason I ask is because I know some players that are now on their 3rd or even 4th accounts with your network having had their previous accounts banned for collusion. I assume they re-register under different email address, or even as different people...or perhaps they slip the net by being banned on 888, but open a new account on lotospoker for instance. When you are a regular and know the styles of certain individuals, it does not take a rocket scientist to spot these players if they return to the site.

The question is, how are they able to re-register and play? Surely if they were banned before, they should be permanently banned? I wrote to support on this matter, nothing was done, (either support too inept to spot betting patterns, or they just dont care) and said players are still able to play at your tables.

I dont think this is right, and this should not be happening.

So, how do I complain about your inept support staff who do nothing about this case? Is it the Gibraltar gaming commission, an email to Brian Mattingley (CEO of 888 holdings), or some other avenue?

I await your response 888rep!

"Terms and Conditions

... Terms and conditions are usually carefully written by or with the assistance of lawyers to make clear (to you and other lawyers) what the rules are when disputes arise. Terms and conditions should be fair and reasonable and we require our operators to identify to customers any terms and conditions that are unusual, and review any that are found to cause confusion. Terms and conditions are likely to define the outcome of most disputes.

Terms and conditions may be changed with or without direct advice to each customer (say by e-mail), though we expect operators to do this. However, advice about changes may not be received, go unrecorded or unread, or be forgotten by customers, and they should check the most recent version of any terms and conditions as well as any copy they may have retained. It is possible for operators to be wrong in respect of what their terms and conditions mean, but it is very unusual."

"Complaints Procedure

... Other than in exceptional circumstances, all complaints should, in the first instance, be directed to the operator to deal with, usually through the operator's customer services. Exceptional circumstances would include allegations of gross misconduct, dishonesty or corruption by management. Where such an allegation is made the Commissioner will decide if it should be dealt with without it being referred to the operator first.

... Customers who wish to refer a complaint to the Commissioner should complete the [pdf] Complaint Resolution Request Form."

No idea if it's up to date.
Do all of these skins share the same vip-program and software including the "preferred seat" feature?

So is there any big difference?
