Posted by klash23: It looks like this Christmas/new year promotion is running for a while yet, at least the next few weeks.I always seem to only win the starburst and lucky star freeroll tickets though and the occasional $5 casino free play.Not complaining though,another couple of dollars today.
You are right, the whole gift/Christmas/new year promotion will be running until the middle of february and I like that very much. Every day you are winning at least one ticket, either the starburst or the lucky star or an all-in freeroll ticket.
Min cashed yesterday AK vs QQ short stack for .50 still got 10 tickets for the 5000 and 21 for the 500 GL Same tournament Big Blind setup good fold or bad fold???
i have got about five tickets left. i have played three so far first one i busted out real early on. the second i got $1 i only won two hands all game i doubled up my stack early on made the money then the blinds wipe me out. second game whent the same but ended up with $2 i will be playing one again tonight if i improve every game i will do ok

Posted by bless9: i have over fifty tickets for these but rarely play too many players and not play normally it lotto. valid until end february
Wow if you are having over fifty tickets then I would start playing soon, because the promotion will only be running until the middle of february and not until the end of february. And as everyone is getting more tickets every day there will never be much less players.

The tournaments are pretty crazy at the start but after a few levels it calms down to a half decent game and it if you survive the first few levels you have a good chance of cashing,probably not going to get a big amount but it all adds up if you manage to get a few dollars here and there.

The 500 Dollar Starburst freeroll has just started on 888. But with 7.500 players that are far too many for me. I have played the one at 13:07 Cet and there were only 5.600 attending. So I deserved to win at least my 20 Cent.

Hey mates, I am just about playing th 500 Dollar Starburst freeroll on 888. It started one hour ago and I am still in the tournament. There are only 326 players left out of 4.500. I really hope to win a little bit more money this time round.

These starburst freerolls are getting quicker and quicker every day. I registered the other day and forgot to play but still managed to cash with a field of around 4000.It was only only a min cash of a few cents but it is surprising that 90% gets knocked out within the first hour.

Yes mate, they are very quick, because the blinds are rising every three minues. That way you are in the money after around 40 minutes, sometimes even less. The blinds at this moment are about 300 / 600 in most cases.

Just played in tonight's 5k freeroll and came 250 for 3.50. My bankroll is developing nicely courtesy of a load of free tickets from 888 in this promotion. I still have about 40 500 freeroll tickets left... I think I will have to reg and notlay most of them!

I managed to go quite far in the lunchtime starburst,finished around 75th out of nearly 5000,not a great prize though but it was fun. I was always struggling to keep in the game and could have been out in the first level but fluked a runner runner when caught trying to be clever so quite happy with the result. Will be hoping for more of the same in tonights 5k.
