What do you think about Card Strike in 888poker?

[dmnchmp]

What do you guys think about Card Strike? Which do you like better, card strike or hand of the day? And what's your biggest card strike win?

I preferred hand of the day. I don't play cash games much on 888 now, so I have never won on card strike.

It can win cash prizes up to $10,000. The new feature is already available at the cash tables (including SNAP). You can try to play, but be careful.

During the entire time I played cash games when this promotion was available, I performed it only a few times and received 5 or 50 cents for it. So I don't think it's very useful, but that's just for me, maybe it's important for you.

It's bad, I have never won anything. Just give us proper rakeback please 888!!

It's a GARBAGE promotion. Attempts to get player to play more hands ("I just need to play 45 hands!!" ).
Prizes are garbage!

888 needs to do something better to attract more customers. Stupid wheel spins to win nothing, ridiculous hyper turbo freerolls with thousands of players to maybe win pennies, 2 small Monthly Loyalty tournaments And one for $25k that they won't even tell you what you need to qualify for it????

Why not at least have a Daily Leaderboard rake race or something? Card Strike, LoL. Also, getting rid of SnG's in hopes of having even more fools play BLAST games. fwiw, I've checked out stats for BLAST players, even checking ones from previous HS Spin 'winning' regs. and they are a losing proposition. Total waste of money! This is an insult to poker players.

Hi dmnchmp

I have only won once, 2c.

It's not my favourite promo. You have to play a lot of hands. I also have some doubts about card manipulation, as I see statistically unlikely things happening frequently, and this promo plays right into that.

I'm back to playing 888poker and haven't played this Card Strike yet, I'm going to give it a try!

 

[Highfish]

Worthless promo.

 

[bowserdon]

nuthin for me

 

[puzzlefish]

Some think that 888 wants to attract more winning poker players? It's the opposite and has always been to turn poker into more of a casino slot machine type game.

They are a waste both of money and time.I don´t like that promotion at all!

 

[WrongUsername]

888 is awful poker site designed by kids.

And what is the largest you've won? And how many hands played to obtain this?
My largest 'card strike' prize is $0.25 (I'm not sure how many hands I've played since they started this promotion... but it must me thousands as I play on 888 for fun at night)

I really wish they'd do more to promote their site. There's no reason they couldn't be more competitive with the other sites if they did a few things differently.

25 cents lol. i never hit it, played only a few hundred hands there lately on nl5 for the promo but i thought for sure the prize is at least a few dollars.

should indeed attract a lot of players.

Playing 5nl the biggest I won was $0.05
I had to play 25nl to win the Big 25cents!

 

[moularaki]

i finished it twice and i won only 5cents
i did laugh at myself

 

[RhinoRyan89]

Best win to date on card strike is $1

@NotADonk is correct its a terrible replacement for the hand of the day promotion.
