22$ turbo starfish in the morning could need a sat

I just was in the HU of a 9max SNG and I was put on auto sitout, whenever I clicked I'm back I insta sat out, as soon as villain raises. wtf is this.

+1

happened to me another time while all other tables were running completely normal.,
alternatively, more 1$ to 12$ and 2$ to 22$ sats throughout the day would be nice. 6-7 min entry,1 seat gtd. turbo. R/A or reentry.

happens to me when i disconnect and comeback, u have to close the table and reopen it

Happened to me a few times as well. By the time I realized I was already eliminated

yea, its quite a big glitch...I defenitly lost a loottttt of money cuz of this

have you taken away some of the $5 to $55 sattys in the morning? can you put them back pls

I want to play some higher games in the morning schedule (CET times) but none of these games have satellites.
You have those 5 to 55$ but they're spare and I rather have some 2$R/As and way more 1$ to 12$ sats. Surely you can flick in some sats in the morning schedule..

are the days of 888 rep doing things in here gone? gotta kill the thread :x

888 has died

Having 5 seat gtd sats to all $22 and $30 tournaments would help these tournaments alot.

+1, hopefully this thread is somehow directed to someone who is able to fix this bug (if someone should exist at 888 ;-))

anyone got any advice on the best way to withdraw from 888 to GBP without getting 888'ed? withdrawing via visa they charge some insane % amount, and swapping it off is no viable. maybe if i get an ewallet account of some sort?

skrill not existent in pounds?

yeah it does, but i havnt used something like skrill in years, i wasnt sure if i would get similarly ****ed over by them/by withdrawing from 888 $ to skrill £. ill try it though, thanks!

Opened client today and it was sad to see that guarantees of some tournaments were lowered and a lot of games have dried up. A few suggestions:

1.) I hate to suggest it but it seems you have to introduce PKOs. They seem to be popular among recs and they could bring new blood to your site. However, don't make every second tournament a pko. Instead add/replace one or two per stake. For instance, $30 Swordfish at 7pm cet, $109 tornado at 9pm cet, some starfishes could be pkos.

2.) It seems that daily challenge is on clear downhill. The same tournament running from Monday to Saturday looks like Monsoon with slightly smaller buy-in; it does not look special. If trend continues its gtd might be 8k or 10k by summer. Bring back unique format for each day of the week, possibly with two pkos per week.

3.) Your fish n' chips series tournaments do not feel like series, they don't look connected. What about introducing leader-board awarding tickets to higher buy-in tournaments? It will cost you some money but might give incentive to play more $22 and $30 games and it might be win-win for everyone.

The rep is very active in the internet poker thread posting daily. Its a full time job placating the people complaining about seat scripters and bots in the cash games. Seems to have all but abandoned this thread while the mtts wither and die. Shame as ive always liked 888 but they can't compete with party or stars anymore and don't seem to have any inclination to try these days.

Hey guys,

Sorry for not replying to messages for a while. There's been an internal change in the department, everything should go back to normal now.


Added a 5 seats gtd satellite.

Done.

We are working on introducing PKO tournaments. It's in high priority but will take a while, once I have more news to share regarding the timeline I will let you know.

suggestions for morning GMT schedule:

1. make one of the $12 $500/$800 gtd's rebrand as early deepstack catfish/ 8max catfish. spread the other one a little further out
2. replace the 3r 6max pokercam with a $3/$5 6max rebuy
3. add in a $10-$30 super KO, like you said you're working on PKOs but KO tournaments are still popular with recs and the morning schedule does not offer these
4. offer a satelite for the $30 8max swordfish

Great suggestions.
We have changed the $12 $800 GTD at 9:30 GMT to "The $1,500 8-Max Catfish".
The $12 $500 GTD at 10:30 GMT was changed to "The $800 10+10 Knockout".
Added a 5 seats GTD satellite to the 8-max swordfish.

amazing, ty, good to have you back.
any news on the pokercams situation?

Which tournament/time slot are you referring to? can you be a bit more specific?

Maybe change the 2.15pm $12 turbo to a branded $12 turbo or $8 888 turbo
Boost the gtd of the 6pm $11ko and keep boosting the gtd of the 11ko u just added in the morning if it does well

there was a $3 6max pokercam rebuy at around 11am GMT which no longer runs apparently due to an issue with the company that helps you with the webcam software?
could be replaced with a $3 or $5 rebuy 6-max if the issue with company still exists - it usually got around 50-80 runners but i know was popular with recs as the 6max format incentivized more rebuys
