Personally I much prefer the SNAP $2.5.
I just turned one of my tickets into $29.12. The bust hand was AK < A3 (of course). The payouts were really picking up and top was $323.56.

I have about 20+ tickets build up from this at this point a bunch of the 500 starburst and the 5k one's as well but can't play any during the week and so it only leaves the weekends which I played almost zero poker the past weekend but hopefully will get to use a few soon with holidays approaching and make a few bucks.
I did win a 2.5$ snap ticket last night though so hopefully I can parlay it into a score as well.
Congrats on the deep run in the tourney Gorak, be nice if could run my ticket deep as well.

They are currently running some unscheduled surprise tournaments. They send us a message that the tourney is open and limited to 1500 players.
My estimate is that you have about 10 seconds to find the tourney and hit register before it fills up. Yikes!

Mixed views on this. Sounds good to start with but playing too many large field freerolls is not goo for your game. I call them play and hope games. Normal play goes out the window and you need to think differently. Having said that it is for free so the odd game is okay.

They are also running a surprise $5000 gtd for $2.50 buyin (It has overlay). I'd play it but I usually have too many tables opened already.

How do they message you???
Over 90% of the time I attempt to register with one of my tickets, the tournament is already full. And then for some reason it stalls my computer in a huge way. It's annoying.

.... nevermind.
I was still logged in on there when I wrote this... 2mins. later a message pops up on my screen (from 888, lol). I reg'd. to some Xmas Xtra Gift freeroll. Top5 spots win a playstation4 (< I just won one of these two days before Christmas but would love to win another... & of course give it away to family or friends)

First you have to be logged in 888 at the time of the announcement. It is a small popup window in the center of my screen.

Have won the 5$ cash bonus
I think it's typically 3.5pts. per $1
I have 34 tickets & when I go to reg. with them.. it says 'no tournaments'.
Lately the thing that has been keeping me away from this site is >> when I'm in a tournament & go to check the lobby.. .if it's a large-field tournament, my freak'n computer either LAGS badly or temporarily freezes up on me. This has caused me alot of grief when I'm multi-tabling a bunch of tourneys on a number of sites. It's a shame because I enjoy some of the 888Poker tourneys & the play in them is uber soft. (in micro/low buyin)

I would assume there would be (but have no idea what it is.... I haven't won a bonus in this promo).
Has anyone won anything in those All-in Gift Freerolls?
I have 40-something tickets now... & probably 40 of them will end up expiring on me.

The allin ones are worth it if you believe you can make top 3 of 5000 because you can win iPhones, Cameras and Playstations 4.
I only won tickets to the Starburst $500 and Lucky Star $5000. This is not the best 888 promo. I hope they will go back to their usual winter promo.

This is a nice promo but i like more the 24h freeroll when every hour you got a freeroll, either the spin and go have a very small prizes, the best prizes you got is 5$ cash bonus ( that you have to rake 7.5$ to got it ) or the 5$ freeplay on casino that you have to wager it 20 times ....
