My efficiency is good to make few hundred dollars in a month. That's not the problem, i have few good skiils, like many players who make money. My problems is these cards. They come to me on the table, but he does not want to offer something good to advance in the game. That's why i have very poor results in 888poker. I played in 4 months over 100 tournaments with buy in over $ 3.30 and many with 50 cents, 1 dollar or $ 1.50. That's something i have not seen before and some players get gifts very easy and others like me wait for months and receive nothing.

I understand your frustration CALICUL, if you´re a winner player to lost is a bad feeling. But you have to know that the tournaments and MTT are the worsts games for the variance. Think in the advising bankroll for each kind of game: cash= 20 BI, S&G= 50 BI, tourney= 150 BI. So you have to be prepared for a downswing

There is something else to blame in my opinion. My wagering... I think, i need to play more cash games, inclusive snap, because in the last few months, i played tournaments a lot but cash only 4-5% approximate. I did not run enough money, for commisions of 888poker and they are very bad with me.
today I received another 2 tickets .... this time, these two tickets to freerolls of $ 1,500 ... Well, now at least something new .... if before I was given one ticket ..... now gave two tickets .... very cool ... But of course this is not at all what I would like to get the Wheel of Fortune

Won a couple of lucky freerolls tickets ove the last couple of days but still haven’t been playing at 888 lately so maybe not in their good books for a reward. Keep trying everyday though and see what I get. Ideally should use up my free tickets that I have won cos I keep forgetting about them. Good luck fellow 888’ers.

Well, the wheel is fixed again. I thought that it was broken because the wheel gave me one ticket couple days ago but no, it was a simple bug. The wheel return to don´t give me anything like the last two month. Really I think that I deserve a prize, something like "Golden Cup to the Most Frustrated but Persistent Spinner"

Today i won a prize for football $ 2.50. I bet on 3-4 matches to scored goals but i have to wait 72 hours to receive this gift. I would like 888poker to offer prizes once a week but bigger. For example: i earn 7 tickets per week 10 cents or depositors ( only rarely $ 2.50 for casino, sport or poker ). I want a single prize per week not 7. I want to play a weekly freeroll with wheel of fortune, not 7 freerools because i need to play with real money.

very strange .... some people have every day prizes .... I'm talking about myself .... but you have not got any prizes .... I had a theory that if there is money on the account, that wheel does not give prizes .... And if there is no money or there are few of them, it gives prizes

Dear friends CALICUL and pajalnick, I understand your claim. When we are fed up with food, the best delicacy seems bland. You have to see my experience and be happy with your $ 0,10 or $ 1500 tickets. I sure you that when it doesn´t come, you will miss it too much! And both of you have to said that the probable cause of my prize`s absent maybe the low bankroll in my account. Recently I had $ 85 there (I did an angry withdraw because of the shutdown), and I play about $ 2-3 per day in S&G. When I only played freerolls, 6-7 months ago, I was claiming like pajalnick because I only got $ 1500 freeroll`s tickets every day!
In general, it is difficult to understand the technology of this wheel ............. Of course you can build all sorts of theories but we do not know the exact answer ........... Therefore, you do not need to think about this just twist the wheel every day ......... won means won ........... lost, then lost ................. such cases .......

You have all the reason pajalnick, we always try to explain the reality in a trying of control it. If we can control it, perhaps we can conduct it to fulfill our wishes. So, when the variance affect to us, always are a phantom hidden in the darkness manipulating the reality for our sadness. We have a bit of narcissism, don´t you think?

Technology of this wheel works differently in Romania. In other countries like Russia or Argentina you had freerolls of 1.500, 6000 or 12.000 dollars but in my country not. I won tickets in every day because these tickets are 10 cents or $500 first depositors freerools and once every 2-3 months i won $2.5 for casino, bets or poker. Romania has little prizes because they like to play many free games and 888poker lose money because many romanians do not wagering. Yesterday i finished on the 22nd position of 12,502 players and i won 31 dollars in the Royal Crown Freeroll tournament. This tournament is good especially because it is also in Romania.

wow .... wonderful result ..... With such a huge number of players take the 31st place is very cool ..... of course maybe you're a little lucky .... without this take a high position such tournaments are probably impossible ... wonderful result ..... I wish good luck in the further game

Good victory CALICUL!! You have to fight for two hours to arrive in these place...really a warrior! You deserve it! Now, the matter is that you and pajanick are getting prizes and I don´t. The kind of prizes that you won is a colored note...the only pain that exists in this world is mine, don´t distract the matter! And pajalnick how you could quote a selected part of the CALICUL saying, I couldn´t!

Thank you guys for congratulations and good luck with games in all rooms, to make good money. It was not a difficult game because the software was very good with me and i had big luck with good cards. I think this freeroll still has approximate10 tournaments until it's over if i do not mislead. Do not miss the opportunities my mobsters friends.

I do not quite understand why you did not manage to quote part of the message .... It's very simple ... you press the button to quote and delete unnecessary words .... leave only what you need .... everything is simple.... Now I did the same thing as last time .... I hope you can do the same thing .... good luck

So, after a long time of not much going on on the 888 spinner thingy, I won a blast ticket. Yay! I played it this morning and came second winning $1.50. Not the end of the world but could be the start of a promising future. LOL. Keep spinning and keep taking what is costing you nothing to get something.

Yes pajalnick, but I was erasing all the text that I don´t want, including the world QUOTE at the beginning and at the end of the phrase, so the quarter didn`t appear,,,,now I know why! I wait it be true and when post the reply the quarter may appear. By the way, the wheel still give me nothing...why I still spin it?

The problem is that with 888poker: we got something for free but the problem occurs when you play those free tickets. They do not let you make money too often. You lose your gifts very often without winning anything notable and it is better to refuse some gifts. I have often received gifts and have not helped me with anything except wagering.

I´m always thirsty for some little gift. A small crumb makes me happy. I`m surprised for my tolerance to failure. At this time another guy will not continue spinning this indifferent wheel. But I spin it once and again without a prize. Sad history By the way, to aggravate the sad situation, the Mob Calendar also don´t give me anything for a long while!...snif, snif,...buuuu!
