Most of you should have received three tickets for these. Seems a very interesting tournament structure:
> Play Any $2,000 Money Grab Free Tournaments > Make it to the top 100 players & collect a GOLD CHIP > Become a Millionaire when you collect 10 GOLD CHIPS in a row!
Seems a fun tournament indeed, but you don't just need to get 10 in a row for bigger money as gaining chips in a row still nets you money:

I have just received my free tickets to this promotion and it looks interesting.I don't know how many will enter the tournament but I imagine it will be over 5000 so the chances of a player finishing in the top 100 ten games in a row are virtually zero.

I wonder if anyone would make it to the top. I find this very hard. Since it is a freeroll and in the 888poker network, the player field must be really big. Reaching teb times in a row in top 100 would be almost impossible. Good luck to all participating.

I got a steps ticket
Yeah it would be pretty impossible to get the $1m but it is free, there are many other prizes and 888 freerolls are usually fairly soft.
I think I will be looking at about a $50 profit as I am grinding hard on another promotion on another site so won't be able to give it my full attention. That said, get a few 100's in a row and I will start paying attention pretty damn quickly!

hey hey! A very interesting promotion. I wonder how many people 888 expect to achieve ten gold chips in a row? Is it possible that they have capped the winnings at a certain amount and could end the promotion earlier than stated? I did my first spin tonight and started off with come back tomorrow, which I will and the day after that and the day after that etc!

for some reason I never got the wheel yesterday but got one today and won a step one ticket,seems to be a variety of prizes won so far so hopefully better than last time.The promo seems to be going on for a couple of months so maybe someone has a chance to win a few quid but I don't see anyone getting 10 in a row.

There are THREE $2k Freerolls each day. Each one can hold up to 14,000 entrants. It's a pretty tall task to get top 100 in a row, let alone get it ten times in a row. Good luck to anyone who can get anywhere near winning this lovely prize. Lots of hard work and concentration required.
First one tonight had 7160 entrants finished 826 place for .80 best way too get more tickets with this 2 month promotion is with sports betting place 30 or more with odds of at least 1.5 get 3 tickets pretty sure it can be spread out on multiple single bets GL.

aye
best bet is to view this as one of their normal promotions and just get as many small cashes as you can, which soon adds up. I prob wont play the first few,let all the fish use their tickets early

So far the wheel has been good to me,a steps prize followed by a 2k tournament ticket,hopefully I will get the tickets to start my run for the million. I was going to register for todays lunch time game but there were 10,000 players and as IQA says there may a lot fewer entries as time goes on and at least if players have the incentive to finish in the top 100 there won't be so much craziness in the first few levels.........yeah right.

it is harder than i thought i don't know why they made it super-turbo no one gonna reach the one million the levels are going up super-fast , you can't play tight and in a tournament this fast , you must win multiple flips to be able to get top 100 and to do it 10 times in a row is quite impossible i played the first one last night , i lost against JJ when i had AK didn't play the second one , like klash said too many players

You answered your own question.
888 aren't a charity, they wont be giving money away that they don't need to. This is enough to tempt more players to play more often for only a $2000 freeroll.
Stick to playing them as separate games and you will profit.
