While you're at it.... the 5 seconds to post blinds is too short, too.

Can be a problem at times due to network latency.

I relocated to canada from usa and currently playing on stars. I would like to play on 888poker but the thing is i still haven't gotten my moneybooker acct verified yet and its been a few weeks. What options are there for me to deposit into 888poker without mb? I would still need mb eventually for withdrawing correct?


Is there a method where i can deposit at least 1k thats not mb? I read instadebit and echeck doesn't work unless you are canadian citizen and have that social insurance number?

You can do wire transfers from/to most financial institutions. I set this up from a local credit union when I joined.

Also, many Canadian credit cards work; my TD Visa doesn't, however.

Yeah, why do they go right from a minute to 15 seconds? Why not try 30 seconds first?

What they should do is give you 30 seconds for the waitlist alert then 15 seconds to take the seat after you "click seat me now"

I agree you shouldn't have to but there are some mods you can buy out there that increase font size and remove the chat box.

These mods are also a lot better on the eyes

i think its a poor decision to let players play on pokercam without actually having their camera on... defeats the purpose and takes the fun out of it . reconsider .

email their support and tell them exactly what u just said
[888poker] (ROW) Official Players' Thread Quote

No. There are crucial steps missing from that description. Based on that description, support will tell you that someone beat you to the seat and that it's network latency and that's the way it is.

You joined the waiting list each time and a seat should have been reserved for you each time. Each time, you had to get off the waiting list and get back on to the waiting list. Some times when you tried to join, it would tell you that you were already on the waiting list, but you weren't. Some times when you tried to get off the waiting list so that you could rejoin, it would tell you that you weren't on the waiting list.

It is WAY more frustrating than you make it sound

888rep can you confirm it really is a bug and not something they implemented as a deterrent against using the waiting lists? Its really strange that this bug is activates the waitlist alert 100% of the time at $400nl and above but only occasionally at $200nl and below.

As far as I am aware it seems like it's a bug and they are trying to see how they can fix this at the moment. As you say Roy it seems to only affect the limits you state which makes it slightly more complex as far as I can make out.
Hopefully they will sort it soon for you as they are definitely on the case at the moment and I send them all the feedback that you guys post so they can understand your frustrations.

Members from the same IP can play in the same MTT. Whether or not they are playing in the same room. However, 888 has sophisticated software to detect irregularities in game play.

I have heard about different amounts of reload bonus this weekend:

A:
"This weekend only, you can get $200 cash in your account for the price of $100. That’s half the price.

Simply:
Deposit now with promo code: SALE200
Enjoy up to $100 Extra Free Cash this weekend.
The bonus will be credited in chunks. Every 100 status points, your account will be credited with $10 into your bankroll."


B:
"This weekend only, you can get $60 cash in your account for the price of $30. That’s half the price.

Simply:

Deposit now with promo code: SALE200
Enjoy up to $30 Extra Free Cash this weekend.
The bonus will be credited in chunks. Every 100 status points, your account will be credited with $10 into your bankroll. "

So what is the maximum amount, and who can use this promo code?
I have not recieved any email of this reload bonus.

Pretty sure the bonuses are targeted at certain groups of players ie. not regs.
