Everyone who has deposited this year should have received two free tickets to these special freerolls running at the moment. There is one on tonight at 20:09 but there is only around 100-150 places left if you want to play.
SNAP tournament is supposedly Zoom type playing but in a MTT. Should be fun for all of the fish. Anyone in?

Cool promotion and came in top 600 winning a couple of dollars and a ticket to the main event to win a flight in a jet fighter in Prague........ Probably wouldn't be allowed to do it even if I did win but a few days in Prague wold be nice none the less. SNAP is pretty good game and the tourney has nice format.

Hello, Well i played last night and now, and got out on 6000+ and now i dont know. But i got out pretty fast . Every one get 2 tickets. I've never deposited on 888poker, and i still got 2 tickets. So it doesn't matter if you made or not a deposit there, you still get 2 tickets for it. I like zoom things, but on 888poker, there are too many fishes, donks etc. per total. I think let's say, 7/10 players.

569/8500 people left and I am sat in 174th with 38k chips and over the average stack. Happy as made the top 600 for that freeroll ticket and of course some free bankroll to play with. Anything can happen now but I am going for it.
Edit:
This game is rigged to s**t as f**king usual. 50th in the chipstacks with 85k odd and playing amazing. get AA on the button and someone UTG goes all in with his 80k. Easy call everytime. Call and flips over 88. Knew I would lose as soon as I saw that as flops a set yeah of course everytime I get AA or KK I lose.
Then I have 2k left and won up to 6k with 33. 3 way all in my Q9 vs A10 vs J9s. I flopped the best hand and the board sets up a nice straight draw on the turn for the biggest stack and he hits a MAGICAL river card for the straight and knocks me out. Why does this game always punish me when I am playing bloody great with f**king bollocks and s**te. Time and time again it's utter bulls**t it really is.
Edit: Out with 200 players remaining and I should have been one of the top stacks so you see my frustration, but hey this game likes to f**k me around all the time no matter how I play.

Would not waste your time on it mate it's a waste of time when you get sucked out on by some idiot or some set up stuff like standard poker riggedness.
------------ Logged into 888 to find 3 more tickets to these freerolls(plus one I already have) and also one for that Fighter Jet freeroll. A great chance to make some more money and maybe reach a FT this time.
Not to sure about that Fighter Jet one as it seems only 1st place wins something.

Well i like 888 software when i received some deposit and played in it but now I am staying away from it not because of their promotions which are really good but because I cannot verify my account on neteller and i do not play on any site even if i get huge bonuses if i don not have the possibility of being able to cash out afterwards.
Anyway good luck guys nice promotion again so get on the train while you can. So cheers and have fun at the tables guys!

Anyone playing in tonight's one? Been kicking ass on SNAP cash tables so hopefully that good run as well as doing well and getting far in my last SNAP freeroll will reward me with at least reaching the money.
Got lots of tickets so getting knocked out is no real problem.

Did not last long. Tried to steal then double up with AKs and ran into QJ and AA. Q hit on the flop to add insult and I never have cracked AA with AK that is only against me.
I still have 9 tickets to use so there is always tomorrow. GL if your still in.

Played in my third SNAP freeroll just now and managed to reach the money with ease. Once again I play well but PF all in's go against me to ruin me when I am doing well. First QQ vs AQo I lose to a river Ace. 77 vs A9 against a short stack and I hit nothing(I was behind tbh) but the last one was AJo vs A9s which of course some bigger chip leader calls and hit his magic 9.
This happens to me far to often in MTT's when I am doing well, have a big chip stack then stuff like that happens. It's like you get punished for playing well and getting your money in great every time, but seems luck is never in my favour. How many times can people hit that miracle one card all the time.
There is always tomorrow but I won't my breath at getting far unless im some lucky super donk.
