When did 888 change its stance on this 3rd party software ?

Could 888 not make a clear list of software that can not be used on the offical website?
No this was never allowed.
Where did you see that it was ok to use this software?

888Rep - Do you know the 888 guy who posted on that Russian forum? It's only one translated post, but it's got great, useful information. It's clear, it's deep, it's at a level that we haven't seen here on 2+2.

Could you work with him to get the same kind of information that he has so that you could share it regularly with us?

It's amazing that we're only realising now that 888Rep doesn't speak English. Explains so much.

You may not use any software program, robot or external aid, which is endowed with artificial intelligence or which is not included in the Permitted Aids list (as set out above) in connection with your use of our Services. Examples of such prohibited tools, software and external aids are: (i) tools and services that allow for any type of collusion between players, such as showing cards, (ii) tools that assist players to select games in accordance with player identity, (iii) tools or websites that reveal and share information about other players against their will, such as game statistics and overall earnings, (iv) any type of tool that performs any action on behalf of a player at the table, (v) any tool or program that collects information about other players at the tables in the player’s absence, (vi) any tool or program that provides game advice in real time based on the actions of the other players at the table; or (vii) any software program or external aid which, in our opinion, enables you to find a seat at a poker table or automatically seats you at a poker table (collectively “Software Aids”). In the event that we deem that any Software Aid has been used, we reserve the right to take any action we see fit, including immediately blocking access to the Services to the offending user, terminating such user's account and seizing all monies held in such account.

27. Software Aids: Please note that in relation to any peer-to-peer games or any other games, you may not use any tools or software other than: ... (iii) tracking software that calculates and displays in-game statistics which are intended to help you organise the information that he [sic] already has access to as a player at that specific table (apart from Snap games) ... (collectively "Permitted Aids").

So that means PT and HEM are not Permitted Aids according to their TOS, as they calculate and display information about a player that you already have access to as a player at previous tables.

Therefore, reading on, 888poker reserves the right to take any action they see fit, including immediately blocking access to their Services, terminating your account and seizing all monies held in it; if you use such a HUD.

Bummer.

Has that actually happened to anyone?

All the cases seem to mention seating scripts only and not tracking software

Who knows? They don't tell anyone why they were banned, except the Regulator if someone complains about a ban. If they told them that was the reason someone was banned, and pointed them to that paragraph, the Regulator would tell the banned person only that they had investigated their complaint and that they agreed 888poker had followed the TOS.

Also, very few 888poker players are readers of TPT.

It's still possible our fraud team may detect it.

Hello everyone,



Life’s pretty good if you’re Chris Moorman – 888 ambassador and WSOP Champ.
Right before he continues his deep run in the Crazy 8’s, we couldn’t help but wonder, what’s his daily routine like?

Hello!

Before I go over my actual issue,
I just would like to thank you for the detailed information
on the "accounts being locked"-issue.
This was a pretty great post which was copied though from the russian pokerforum, which makes me wanna ask, why you have not brought all these very helpful information here?
I mean, people in the thread asking since weeks in a desperate manner what is going on?

I don't know, but is the russian or in general eastern europe customerbase by any chance potentially more valueable for 888 and/or in general for pokerclients than customerbases from other regions/locations (serious question btw)?
Or what is the concrete reasoning that there was no helpful information revealed within the 2+2 community, but apparently within other forums?
It also strikes me that 2+2-officials/mods/etc would ignore this fact and just accept that.
Im sure 2+2, 5 years ago would have not ignored this aspect.


Now to my current issue:

You have said that 888-tech-department is already working on a fix for the
"client is crashing when one is closing 1 table"-issue.
Could you please provide us any sort of timeline or estimation when this issue will be fixed?

I mean, this is anyways close to insane to be honest.
No offense, but it is absolutely no problem that after a client-update tech-bugs can happen. That is not a big deal and can always happen.
But how one of the biggest poker-client nowadays can fail in
a.) taking full responsibility (at the beginning they did not even admit it's on their side)
b.) fixing it at the exact same day
(stars would have fixed such a significant bug within hours)

is for me just shocking and actually unbelievable if it would not be for the fact that you would actually witness it yourself.

Anyways,
as said, any info on a time-approximation about when this issue will be finally fixed, would be highly appreciated.

Regards,
Zrebna

I have been informed that the bug will be fixed in the new version of the client which should be happening during the next two weeks.
Apologies regarding the no information, it was not passed on to me but I have been assured that this will not happen again.

That's indeed a better reward than the direct cash-bonis.
Can you convert this $16.50-tickets somehow into money or do you need to play something?

Why the **** do those stupid animations when you can throw eggs etc at each other still exist?

So so so tilting, even when other people are doing it to each other... Even when you have them muted you still see that.

You can stop seeing this by going into the Settings then Game Display and disable animations.

So is it safe to start playing 888 poker right now if you are a winning reg and doesn't use anything but holdemmanager ? Or is it high risk that account gets banned and funds seized ?

This all sounds ridiculous
