$1000 Christmas freerolls at 888

[Joe]

Thanks for the heads up!

Played one of these the other day but I like the interface/game platform at 888 less and less the more I play there. It's slow and clunky and awkward. It agitates me and exacerbates stalling or slow players.

Very nice to see three daily $1k freerolls though!

1 for 1 in today's $1k HNY freeroll.

A good run finishing 142/8961 for $0.90.

Every little bit helps.

Wow pretty nice from 888 Poker while stars get more money by rake and just gives one 5k freeroll

So tonight's footy tournament was another success i'd imagine eventhough i just won minimum dollars or so lol

I'm still hanging on by a thread there at the break, I'll probably end up with $3.
A lot more people in it today, over 1500 (nearly double the usual number).

Min cashed in the second $1k NYF for $0.20, so 2 for 2 in those so far today.

Loving these extra freerolls from 888, I cashed in all of them today, including the Footy again.

Not huge money, but a good challenge.

$1k Happy New Year Freeroll: 142/8962 $0.90
$1k Happy New Year Freeroll: 1220/9207 $0.20
$1k Happy New Year Freeroll: 1042/7150 $0.30
$2k Footy freeroll: 68/1526 $4.20

It was the coldest night yesterday here though I did encash minimally in 6k, 2k and 8k freerolls.
I have got a Footy freeroll tourney ticket which I will use today.

Now....... 888 has announced New year $1000 freerolls running thrice a day up to 31st of December. Enjoy it.
Meanwhile 888 has given me Monthly 25K Elite tourney ticket. I do not know how many of you got it but I am really very happy and Keen to play this tourney.

I hope you remembered to enter.

888 must have sent out a lot of extra tickets to the $25k elite, I've never seen more than about 1300 players entered, usually it's between 1100 and 1200, but it filled up fast.
There were already 2000 entered when I remembered to enter.
It maxed out at 2500 with about 45 minutes until starting time.

It pays 650 spots with $12.50 min cash up to $2625 for 1st.

Managed to squeeze into ITM in first new year thing today so now i have enough cents to try reach 1.- so i'd get footy ticket ...

I played this tourney so tight that I ended at 304th position accounting $17. My journey ended when A guy called my A Q shove with just 4 6 and won the hand.

So you are elite there just like orsino right ...

 

[VictorOd]

Almost everybody I know got a Monthly Elite ticket but me, I feel like a pleb.

I went out shortly after you then, in 260th for $22.50. I went out with A-K suited vs. 7-7 from a guy who couldn't lose a hand. He was all-in about 6 times in 11 or 12 hands and was behind or flipping in all of them.

No elite ticket here,level 88...i guess i should scrape up a deposit seeing as they were good enough to let me back,that might make a difference.But i also notice their numbers are down quite a lot...hmmmm.I still find it to be the more plastic/action hand site of them all but i guess thats good for recreational players and its only my opinion anyway.Maybe one deposit to bury the hatchet and see the new year in a positive note.First site i played on for play money,first site depositing and first site cashing.Its not what it use to be but at least they are still there,those were the good ol days of online poker at its boom,more and more of the worlds money doesnt actually exist every day,it increases with every loan made with interest or any transaction that carries interest or fees all create money that doesnt exist,thats why a lot of things are falling over now,because everyone and everything is grasping for money that doesnt exist and is getting harder to get a grip of gl for 2020 all.

The key thing is to be a active player on the poker site. I mostly play at least a freeroll everyday on 888 as it just requires a mobile device.
I have used the inexperienced 888 poker customer care quite a few times to change my Freeplay into real bonus.
Today is quite few games like Tweeter tourney and a Footy freeroll. I have 2 tickets of Footy tourney. I will use it today and tomorrow.

Played this footy today ... somehow ended up in same table with Brandlad so it was quite weird to see him eliminating himself before prizes :bebored:

It looks like we get another $25k Elite tourney on Jan. 5, I just received another ticket...

 

[Risto234]

First new year's tournament today was quite succesful for me ...

Had AA at some point yet still lost to someone who managed to get full house thanks to pair of 2's lol

So hopefully remaining 2 of these tournaments are hopefully hoing to be more succesful or whatever

Yah I too have got the new ticket. I think plenty of big guns got left in the previous one due to their Forty winks (I did not notice any technical glitch).

It is a welcome move. I hope to cash in again.
It is 3 am here, New year. I wish you and your family a very happy New year.

Thanks for your care. Actually I was quite tired that day. The Footy tourney runs around 1:30 am according to my time zone. I thought to sit out if my A 8 suited was successful but it couldn't.
I wish you a very happy New year.
Have fun.

These remaining 2 new year tournaments were quite meh but i dont care considering i finished in top 20 in lvl 20 freeroll and thanks to that made another PL bet (which i shared in sports section) so i have another footy ticket after missing it today ...

888 has introduce $500 freerolls running Thrice or 4 times a day and has changed the timings of Blast freerolls.
The new year started on a brighter side as I did win a $5 Blast ticket and turned into $15 win.

There's actually 6 of the new $500 freerolls today at 5 am, 9:30 am, 2 pm, 4 pm, 6 pm and 9 pm (times are PST).

I like how they spread them out. If they are every day I can still play 3 of them during weekdays (5 am, 6 pm and 9 pm).
