Some times you wonder if poker I rigged, I don’t think so.

But is the spinning wheel in 888, rigged - yes it is.

For 3 years, I have been spinning the wheel.

More than 800 times, and the wheel stops a the same free roll ticket.

Every time, without ever hitting something else.

Not a single time in 3 years.

Sometimes from my ipad, sometimes from my laptop, sometimes 2 times a day.

Why do I keep spinning the wheel, I say just for the Hell of it.

Will I ever hit something else than a free roll ticket - I don’t think so.

I would not call it rigged, it's just a pretty much worthless promotion. They do not reveal the probabilities but it must be >99% for the freeroll ticket.

I've stopped spinning it but to be fair, I won some 10c blast tickets previously and also $1 once but that's it.

Yeah, I needed a software update but works now.

Worked. Out of the blue, 888 just doubled my PW. Duno why. Very strange.

888 магазин – Система занята?

Название говорит само за себя,
Пытался получить доступ к покерному магазину 888, чтобы потратить свои очки/посмотреть, сколько стоят вещи и т. д.

но каждый раз, когда я пытаюсь войти в систему, всегда пишет, что система занята?
Это происходит уже больше 2 недель...
Просто хотел узнать, есть ли у кого-нибудь такая же проблема?

Всем удачи,

I can't exchange tokens at all, what's the problem, please tell me!?)

 

[StrelaKP]

Why can't I exchange 585 tokens?

I would like to participate in "up to 50% extra rakeback" promotion but I never received an opt in email. Meanwhile I received several other emails from 888 and there is nothing in spam folder. Does it take time to receive opt in email? Or there are some other requirements? Because I check T&C but could not find anything specific preventing me from participating in promotion.

[Poker Orifice]

How can we find out how many player points we need to clear our 'bonus'?
I've had over $100 in that bonus section of my balance for well over 1 year now???? I've received some small player-to-player transfers and it seems now I must clear a bonus on that money... 2.5pts per $1 or something. So basically if a person sent me $50 in a transfer... I'd need to play over $500 in tourneys just to receive that $50... I mean so I can actually withdrawal it. Is this correct? Because if so, I would have NEVER received ANY tranfers from anyone EVER! It's basically like throwing money away.... it's like getting TAXED on money that was already deposited onto the site.
I actually traded "REAL" money from other pokersites (ie. Pokerstars, TitanPoker, Partypoker, ACR, GGPoker) for sh1tty fake 888Poker $$'s. My thoughts were "Sure... I'll purchase some more 888Poker $$'s and then I'll play more volume on that site when I get the chance". Well I haven't had much of a chance (as far as MTT's goes) and really only play around a bit at 5 & 10nl cash tables when there's actually enough players on them to be bothered with.
It must be 18mos. now & I still haven't cleared the ~$100. (didn't even know I had to for the first 12mos. until I heard about it on the forum here). Not only that, I have no way of even seeing how many player pts. I would need to clear any remaining bonus? (the bonus NEVER seems to decrease in size... even if I put in a few thousand hands... it stays the same).
What is the deal with this???

Hence my question in the previous post. Garbage tactics like this will drive away customers faster than pretty much anything I can think of.
Years ago I used to recommend to people to give 888Poker a try, especially if they're playing micro stakes poker. That's not the case now. Today I recommend them to nobody.

What are the goals of 888 as far as online poker goes? Is it just to attempt to get all customers donating their dollars on the goofy BLAST games? Is this what they are hoping to cater to?

16 mos. has passed and 888 has still not changed their policy(<?) on this.

This is driving customers away from playing on 888. I assume the goal was to force players to play more??

I believe that if 888 changed this policy regarding player-to-player transfers, there would be an immediate increase in player traffic. It really makes you wonder 'who would make this decision for the site'? (it was a TERRIBLE idea)

Hi 888,
I played the CardsChat Freeroll today for about 6 hours and the client crashed two times.
The computer is little bit older but I think that should not happen that often...

There's also a relative long delay after final action till the winner is presented...
Maybe 3 to 5 seconds. Is it to allow the looser to select cards to show, or to increase the tension?

Did you have a lot of other Apps playing at the same time as this certainly would affect an older device.

I believe it was done as a tool to try and stop money laundering issues due to governments pressures.

I play a lot of cash games and in the past I´ve got some tickets dropping from time to time. But since two month now absolutely nothing.
Has anyone had the same experience?

 

[Anders1616]

Did anyone win anything other than a freeroll ticket on the spinner lately?

 

[zerika]

What happened with withdraw by pix? I just can't do anymore
