In general, to find freerolls that are parts of limited-time promotions, open the list of all tournaments, sort them by buy-in amounts and look for freerolls highlighted in pink.

In particular, Big Bang is daily at 13:05 and 21:05 GMT, Blast Off is daily at 18:05 GMT. (GMT is 1 hour behind the British Summer Time and 2 hours behind the Central European ST.)

Don't miss the $10K monthly Lightning Bolt if you've earned a ticket for it - it starts in 50 minutes.

I wouldn't even waste my time looking for them. They are a complete waste of time and nothing but ******ed crapshoots. Why anyone would bother playing them is beyond me.

i usually reg them if I'm grinding anyways. Just a few minutes and can start shoving every hand. But yeah they are pretty much a joke w/ those playerpools. Should be capped to like 2k players and run more often during the day.

I currently have 46 tickets (LOL) and it's unlikely i'll use any of them before they expire. I just don't see any real value in the tournaments associated to them personally. Grinding away in a massive player pool to win $0.30 or a $0.10 blast ticket is more likely to be done by those players with little to no BR IMO and not by those players like myself who see there time better spent focusing on bigger and better things.

If I could give all my tickets away to someone who would use them, then I would in an instant.

Free Tournament Tickets = worst thing I ever saw. Pure nonsense.

I have sent this over to be addressed but in future can you send issues like this directly to operations@cassava.net and they will deal with them.

No they won't. We addressed this before ITT, but better to expose the scripters/botters here, as support will not do anything about it.

Got myself a new laptop, ASUS N501VW with WINDOWS 10 HOME

Now the client is so small that I can barely see the player names sitting in the table.

I can not find a way to fix this. (opening in win7 compability mode, etc.)



https://gyazo.com/3f3340413518dfc4b1ae3cf488319851


Is there any solution for this? At the moment i zoomed the display to 300% so everything else in windows is big also, but that way i can atleast open some table.

Change the resolution?
[888poker] (ROW) Official Players' Thread Quote

It's known that changing the resolution doesn't help. The screen magnifying glass does help but this method is ridiculous. It's better for 888's programmers to rewrite the code so that the lobby changes its physical dimensions on the screen accordingly when the resolution is changed.

I did a player to player money transfer through the cashier for $100 and by mistake put in the wrong username.

I then talked to live chat about fixing it and was told tuff luck - it's done and they won't reverse or fix it.

Now some random person that I don't even know has my $100 for free and must feel like it's christmas.

Am not only gutted but, also angry at 888 for not having something in place to fix this. People make mistakes/errors and this should be able to be fixed.

Because of this and your response, I will be removing my remaining money and refusing to ever play on 888poker again.

I have the exact same problem on my windows7 computer since the beginning of the year or better since a major software update on the 888Poker client. So i can barely read the lobby on my 3840x2160 Monitor because the letters are extremely small because the software doesnt adjust to my windows DPI settings like it should. if i use a very old version of the client from 2015 this somehow works for me but it crashes from time to time...



I reinstalled at least fives times and did updates on everything that can update, etc.. I also tried installing the newest version of the client in a fresh new installed windows7 in a virtual box where it also dont work.
Somehow in a windows 10 virtual box it works on my computer.

i will definitely not install windows10 on my computer only because of this. i have already been there and i do not want to use windows10 for many reasons...

I exchanged about at least 10 emails with the 888 support because of this which was a very horrible experience. they forgot about my problem at least three times and then started from scratch with giving me the same senseless advises all over again like reinstalling the client or opening some ports or changing my internet explorer proxy settings. rofl.

once they told me that they passed my problem to their technical team which will contact me as soon as they have a solution for me. but they did nothing. months later i asked them about this but they didnt know what i was talking about...
about three days ago they passed it again to their technical team and now they told me that i should update my graphics driver which already is the most recent one...

that's really frustrating and i dont know what to do next!? maybe i should just play on a different site?...

So many in fact, that there's nearly the same if not more games of that format than the actual games I want to play.

i'm getting really fed up with having to wade through numerous satellites when looking at the games I wish to play and it's ruining my whole playing experience on 888.

Other pokersites offer filtering systems that actually work properly...it's about time 888 sorted there's out.

P.S. That also goes for the 'steps' satellites...can't get rid of them either.
It’s in our pipeline for future versions, but this may still take some time.

Thanks

It seems this issue has been resolved and rectified.

All I can say is a MASSIVE thank you to those involved in getting that money back to me. You have restored my faith in 888Poker.

@ 888Rep...thankyou and please pass on my thanks also to those who sorted it out. I REALLY do appreciate it.

Looks like i'm back playing on 888POker again!

I have the same resolution and this seems to be problem. Shoudn't buy brand new technics if you want to play @888poker.


888rep i really suggest you to pass this problem to the programmers, as more and more people will have monitors with higher resolution. I think you can guess what average person will do after he downloads the client and can't use it without microscope.

Try switching to a lower resolution via control panel. It may help.

Hello. The new romanian 888 software has only the romanian language and the PokerTracker dosen;t display the hud anymore. How could we change the language to english in order to PT4 to work again? ( note: pt4 imports the hands but only dosen't display hud due to romanian language.) Thank you in advance for a solution.

hey guys, is there a way to select your favorite tournaments shown on 888 like on stars? I know that for sngs, u can't really only select your favorite sngs but you could filter it though it would include similar sngs in the same buyin area. thus when i put hyper sngs as favorite, well it would still include sngs of all types in buyin area that i have hyper 6 man sng set.

The most incompetent poker room ever exist .I never seen in my life such a disgusting online operator.
During the Romanian Legislation all old accounts ( from the .com version ) were all closed and we should open another one via other link received in e-mail.
http://i63.tinypic.com/ojqjpv.png

short translation from that pic is : old account "polarbear26" is closed now and you can create another one via that link

Yesterday i was creating another account via that link ( i had all data in that link aka CNP -cod numeric personal , so it was impossible to be a mistake ) , i made a deposit , i send my id for verification after the new law and today my account is closed cause is related with other accounts
http://i67.tinypic.com/5xmjw6.png

Is that normal what is happening ? On my old account i have a pending cash out , cause i dont know how to get there to see the status , i am thinking that they might be canceled my cash out and now i am related with other accounts by playing one freeroll?

Seriously? What is happening with this company? What is wrong with you people?

*

Is in this threat a representant of this poker room ?

IS hilarious what is happening , now i receive a message as i suggest to have my account closed .Is this a joke ?How is possible to have this kind of behaviour with your customers?
Shame shame shame

[IMG][/IMG]

*

everything is ok now , seems that it was from 888poker fault but my account is reopened
