I received a free ticket,not sure how you get any more tickets but I think the promo only lasts a week or so. I am still in with about 180 players left but short at the moment with about 7BB so will be shoving in the next few hands.

Hi mates.
So what is the result? Any mobster in the tournament get hit the ITM, or just have played? I see that this thread has been open for a member in Canada, and says that is only U.K. players, did you get the ticket too and play? Because if you have get the seat in that tournament so isn't only for U.K. players.

I played This last night and had the pleasure for a short time to be at the same table as IceQueen Ace. I bombed out in 155 with TT v KK, when I was running short stacked. Had I not shoved, I may have made under 150 and got more than the $1 that I did.
I think it runs until 13 May, daily at 1905 BST for UK players only and you don't need tickets..... Just register everyday from 1705BST.
KLASH....what's your 888 name and will look out for you.

I soon got knocked out after my last post,and won a measly dollar,I was the same as damosk and did not check the pay table for the next money jump,I thought it was top 100 rather than 150. I managed to get it all in with 99 and was called by AK and KJ and ace on the flop meant an early night.

Well! I played in this again last night and made low 90's for $1.70. I'm about to register for tonight's game, reg starts at 1705BST and is open to everyone in UK who has made a previous deposit. Less than 1000 players last night. Maybe a few more tonight cos it's Friday. Hope to see some of you there.

Just registered for tonight's one. I have not played a freeroll for a very long time so I am hoping I can do well in this one, if not it will still be good to get some practice in as I have not played much poker lately.

I didn't realise we could register for any more,thought we had to get a ticket.Good to see you back Phisix. Last night I went to see a very controversial comedian and so couldn't play but I will try tonight if the promo is still on. Good luck guys.

If it is a daily tournament with no requirements for registration, it is a good opportunity to score some money there, since the player field must be smaller than usual, being country restricted. Lets see if any of here will manage to take it down . Good luck.

Did not do very well last night. Played well but just card dead most of the time. Could have tripled up with AKo at one point in a 4 way all in but folded it thinking it was the right move and a King came out which meant I would have won that hand. Never mind though.
Will try again tonight and see if I can go further.

Last night and tonight I played and got nowhere. Last night hit a bad patch and ended up 880 out of 881, got back up yo mid 300 but then had dead cards all the way and got nothing. Tonight, was 30 mins late joining having regd earlier and ran out in 500th for nothing. Good luck to the rest of you.

Another bad night but this time I wen't out a little earlier. Managed to get my 88 all in on the flop against a few people with a 9 being the highest card on the flop but someone had AA. I still think I did the right thing so no complaints from me.

Well! Tonight I registered earlier on and didn't join in until 40 minutes into the game, on mobile with no clue of which position I was in with just $85 in my stack. I obviously went out as I was auto all in, but ended up winning $1 without even touching a button! Not a bad result.

I also have managed to win without actually playing a hand in 888 tournament freerolls before,I recently late reg on the PP bronze freeroll,folded a couple of hands and managed to min cash. I missed pretty much all of these Spring games but I think there should be a new promo coming up this week.Is there a game tonight or did it finish last night?

It seems not playing is a better idea in freerolls than actually trying haha.
Just checked 888 and there is indeed another one on tonight. I guess these might be running for a while. I don't think I have seen an email or any information saying how long they are lasting for though.
