Anyone ever won one of the $320 tickets they offer?

Only 2 places paid and normally 300 entrants or so.

I have tried many times but never won, today I got fairly close having been chip leader for a while but ultimately losing a flip and busting out in 15th

Its a complete waste of time and i would just skip it. 888 should use their promotion money in a different way than offer tournaments where u never win anything. Why not give the first 120 players each a five dollar blast ticket for example?

They had good promos in the past but especially their freerolls have gone downhill in the last few months.

I won a 250 dollar ticket, and made the final table a few times, the blinds are bigger than most players stack sizes its a free lottery.

In fairness there other freerolls do just pay put cash. It's just this one that is 2 tickets for $320. I have won a $109 ticket from a level 40 freeroll but failed to make any actual money with it

888 has a lot of freerolls that just pay out a handful of tickets, but I don't bother playing any of them, it's just not worth the effort to me.

I know if if I played them persistently I'd land a few tickets eventually, especially those that pay out higher numbers of tickets like 30 or 50, but the time and effort feels like too much, especially since you still have to convert the tickets into cash in games that are usually hours to reach the bubble, if you make it that far.
Pretty much the only "ticket" game I bother with is the $500 funky freeroll that pays 100x $5 BLAST tickets with a field of 700-800. With crazy fast blinds it doesn't take long and is still fairly easy and if you get a ticket the BLAST game is only about 3 minutes to mostly get a $10 or $15 prize.

Agreed they do make it almost impossible to get any good position

I find the blast games to be more suited to making money quickly without hours of grinding

I am above level 40 and I have not even seen any offers for levels 10, 20, 30 or 40. I used to see them months ago, but now all I see once in a while is a game for level 60 and above. Not much value in trying to increase your level in 888 anymore

Well you can be the best player in the world, but if you are not level 20+ you wont be eligible to join.

Do you not find the rake too high on those games, I think it would be difficult to consistently win.

Level 40 games are normally saturday 15.45 GMT. I think level 60 and 80 are just once a month. I dont think there are level 30 or 50 games but this sort of thing could vary by location. Not sure if there are anything specific for level 100+

It used to be a great $ tourney, but since they changed it to 2 tickets it sucks.. I still try though, it is a good ticket if you can get it!

I only play BLAST games if I have tickets for them.
They are too fast with too few starting chips and mostly too small a prize even with just 3 people. Playing with tickets is the only time they are worth it because everything you win is pure profit and when you lose you don't lose anything but a ticket.

I don't like to play this tournament, only 2 places paid. Many players and little prize.
