This tournament is good to play when you have absolutely nothing to do and just kill your life time. I don't see any more sense in it. The prize money is transferred to the bonus account and you can only play on it in the casino. Why does 888 Poker transfer winnings to a bonus account that we know will not be available from may and why can the winnings only be used in a casino that will instantly eat the bonus? Can anyone explain it to me?

Weird. None of the Cardschat participants played this 888 Poker tournament? Or has no one won a cash prize in this tournament? No advice, just no.

the winnings are only useable in the casino. its all explained in the lobby of the tournament. just go and play some slots or roulette with yours winnings and not forget to stop as soon as you lost them. maybe they will help you for climbing a level up in the vip club.

This is true. But you kill the time of your life by participating first in the tournament and then in the stupid loss of the bonus in the casino. 888 poker knows how not to give money.

What are u talking about? 888 is one of the sites who has the most freerolls and its very easy to make a few cents here and there. If you not like the promo dont play the tournament. Simple as that.

888 is the best Poker room in terms of freeroll tourneys. 888 offers variety of freerolls as per players demand.
If you do not like a tourney just do not play it. Moreover, this tourney always gets full before the start of the game.

With bonus money you dont actually risk too much right
I doubt that losing with free bets and/or bonus money counts as "stupid loss" ...
But then again i guess some people would like to lose with real money instead.

I don't agree with you.
I don't like 888 poker operator,and in my opinion that poker room will never be like other poker rooms.

I got 2 Venus tickets after playing for a bonus. At least this is a little happy.

888 wants you to gamble because they make more money off the casino than they do poker

They didn't build the tournament for the players benefit is my guess on this one

But i could be wrong!

I think the same way you do.

In my opinion the freeroll is intended as a promotion for the Casino, trying to lure poker players into gambling in both places.
As long as they tell you upfront about the rules, I see nothing wrong with it. After all, they give away $500 each time, and participation is voluntary. I wish I could play on 888 to get a piece of that action

That sucks about the winnings only being able to be played in the casino but still not sure who's eligible??

If that option to send the winnings to casino as a bonus has been said beforehand , then its fair enough. Nothing wrong with that

888 is awesome for what they give away. No site is like it once was 10 years ago but 888 I find by far gives away alot. I no longer play PS because of that fact. I remember when they had the audi tt in the monthly or quarterly freerolls was sweet I once came in 18th in the quarterly gold freeroll was like 800 or something like that. 888 small but lots and I'm level 214 so I play everything

888 is trying to hook you playing casino its a bad idea

888 poker is trying to get you to play casino slots roulette blackjack...all of which we know are not random.its a bad idea to play thesegames
