Today I played in the Lucky Blast tournament for 888poker .... and finally I was able to win a ticket .... it happens for the third time for me .... the first time I won nothing from the ticket ... the second time I I won with a ticket of 17.5 dollars .... and today I have a good day .... I was able to win 30 dollars using this ticket ... a good start ... I will try to continue to increase my bankroll

I succeeded only once to win a $ 5 Blast ticket and i missed many occasions. After that i won at blast $7.50 and i have a wheel of fortune ticket, to play tomorrow and to try to win again another ticket. Even if 888poker has 600 tickets of $ 5, is very hard to win.
Of course in Blast tournaments it is more profitable to play during the day Than in the evening .... in the afternoon in such tournaments about 6,000 people play and in the evening about 12,000 people ... naturally, with a smaller number of people it is easier to win ... therefore I play only during the day in these tournaments

It sure goes well for you so far with this promotion. You managed to win two out of three times a good prize, which is a good bankroll boost. A good promotion with freerolls after all, no matter what some here say Congratulations for your wins and keep up the good work, making that bankroll of your grow.
given the fact that I play in these tournaments almost every day, the winning factor is quite small ... so I don’t really like these tournaments .... But of course winning in this tournament provides more options than in other tournaments ... the minimum prize corresponds to the maximum and there is an opportunity to win even more

It is a freeroll with many player in. So winning is not easy. You should be grateful already, for the times you have won so far. You need to be very lucky in tournaments like this to be able and finish in the money, or get a ticket in this one. The total you have got so far in extra cash is a nice addition no matter what

I like other freerolls games because these games do not resemble each other. Even if they do similar blinds cards are different and it is much harder for some to win with big cards. In some games you can win colors or flush often and in others not.
as far as I understand, these tournaments will soon be over and some other free tournaments will start ... maybe I will miss these tournaments ... I won them not often, but then there was a chance to get a good win ... OK, see what the next ones will be tournaments ... maybe they will be even more interesting

The Lucky Blast tournaments are a different format to the usual free ticket games on offer by 888poker. In these you have to hit top 600, but if you can do that you get a decent prize, rather tham 0.02c for 1756th place! Ive played a few but haven't really had much focus on them so need to improve my game. Maybe get chance over the weekend to use my tickets before the promotion expires them.

Is different and if you won a ticket of 5 dollars tou have few options to play with him. You can play blast or satellite tournaments. Direct money tournaments do not know if you can but the solutions are very good. You just have to win.
ticket to Lucky Blast It seems to me better to use in Blast tournaments for $ 5 ... you have a good chance to win good money ... at least $ 10 .... so tournaments are of course very interesting but it is certainly difficult to win there ... Soon the series will end ... maybe there will be something more interesting ... it would be nice

If this series is over soon, then they will return to the awards with tickets for the 3000 dollars freerolls tournaments. Today i made almost 16 k in this game and of course after that i lose all my stack with AK. Is strange when the players risk to pay you with pooor cards or small pairs.
