I just won a free entry in 888poker $ 500 but cannot play on it due to gaming laws restrictions: post your 888 username here within 1 hour and I will put it in required claim prize field.
here is a copy paste of the claim prize window I will have in next hour or so:
"Claim your prize You won the following prize: Entry to $500 freeroll on June 19th at 19 CET (888poker. BankrollMob’s Euro 2016 Betting Competition - should be listed under restricted/special tourney 1-2 days before start. Players will be registered automatically 1-2 days before start.)
To claim your prize, please follow the instructions:
Make sure you have an account at 888Poker. If you do not, you need to create one BEFORE YOU PROCEED. Click here to find our exlcusive offers for 888Poker (opens in a new window).
Fill out the claim form below with your account details (account name or username, not your screen name / alias). You must claim within 2 hours of winning, meaning you must claim this prize no later than Thursday, June 09, 2016 at 17:02 GMT.
Wait for the prize to be issued. Please allow a few weeks. Do not contact 888Poker for a status to your claim, as they are likely not able to assist you. If you have any problems or still have not received your prize after January 15th, please contact BankrollMob Support (this applies only to prizes won during December). For time sensitive prizes, such as winning an entry to a tournament in a few days, those claims will be processed in time for the event."
PS: dont know if it is allowed by BRM but its worth a try . If allowed I will choose whoever I willl feel comfortable to ; no rule at all like firstcomefirstserved or oldtimers rather than newbies or whatever. so please no complaints
will come back here in 40 minutes or so and will do my choice

If they have country restrictions in this promotion, it does not worth going after it. With a review they can deny him the winnings. But even now it might not work if he gives the prize away, cause it might be tied to the ones that have received the specific email..

My bad I didn't explain myself properly: I won that entry in mob calendar today clicking one of the five doors.
So I was asked to fill my username in "claim prize " pop up window here but italian players can't play at 888poker.com ( or better they can but fiscal treatment higly discourages it) so I was asking for a username of your to fill in that window (here on bankrollmob).
I have two hours to do it but due to lack of interest in deadline I posted I filled that field with username "whatever"
So a lucky user called "whatever" will be issued with a $500 freeroll token or you may try to create an account there choosing that username and maybe you will be given that token.
your choice mates
thanks everyone for your suggestions anyway: it0s a pleasure to see you oldtimers still around ready to help other oldtimers like me

Hello, You couldn't take Mob Points instead? It always have been that option i think. That's rly a shame to win a ticket and not be able to play. If i would win the ticket from Poker Mira, i won't be able to play either. So i hope i will win the one from 888.

That's a brilliant suggestion.
Indeed it is....but that option was not available unless I'm turning blind (which is partially true due to my age ) and didn't see it.
@mirexxx: unfortunately it's too late now if you would have posted in time I'd filled with that username

magatt is an old member, (not saying person. losing his sight lol) he has participated in more such promotions from brm, so if he had the option to take the points, he would have chosen to get the ticket, that he cant play?

If you see a cloud then you are ok. If it was just a dot, then this would have been a problem.
A tip for it, but maybe a bit expensive is, as you are getting older buying a bigger screen size monitor I "see" myself for a bigger monitor than a 14" in a couple of years.
