888Poker changed yesterday the login mode and now every time when i want to enter in this room i must to write my nick name and the password manually. These things are done to our detriment and it is not normal. This decision is really embarrassing.

Yes, 888 does some stupid things I agree. Maybe there is some sort of security purpose. Either that or they did it to only make people angry ? I dont think 888 would be that blatant, they are more sneaky and cunning.

Is that something particular to your country as I have seen no such change to my software on the 888poker client? Isn’t it odd how different countries are often treated differently to others with the same client provider. One would think that in the interests of keeping costs down for the developers that they would keep things consistent and the same across countries platforms. Oh well. It’s a small ask and hopefully it won’t affect your enjoyment too much.

The latest marketing decisions or other things in 888poker have not been so good in the last year but i will continue playing here. I'll make a smaller wager but i will not give up permanent. It is clearly at a disadvantage and i cannot make a profit in this moment.
Whether it's a conscientious decision or not from them they most certainly starting to show they have a preference among a certain player body. I am not sure it's good for business to declare 'we don't need you to play here' with every step they make but it's happenning whether they intended or not.

I am restricted until June. I will continue to play there if they let me back even though i dont like it. Not out of reluctance though. There are many great software designers, 888 pros and good value tournaments that make 888 fun. Just not everything about them is good.

I do not like when players are restricted without being guilty and it is incredible what happens. More than that in relation with tournaments there are Big Fish satellites. I thought they were good but unfortunately it's a big disappointment. The best are the series with a lots of money.

In my opinion, 888poker has the worst RNG, worst customer support and worst software out of the 3 big rooms I play in.
However, they (poker and other offerings) are #1 in offering freerolls, freebies and other ways to grind a roll from nothing. This is why I still play there.

888Poker don't let me to win two all-in in a row and that means a great barrier against me and i'm blocked to make money. I have seen this thing in the last 3 months and now i know exactly what happens here. This thing is available for any game with real money or freeroll except SNG and Blast.

it's not all that bad on 888poker however, they have the most free roll tournaments although none of their promotions apply to me, I still play free roll tournaments and I have to admit a few bucks can be taken this morning at 6am I played in a $ 500 daily free roll tournament and I ended up in 3rd place and took $ 18 good luck to all

When you win it is not bad but unfortunately in 888poker are a lot of players who have a terrible luck here. You have no pleasure to playing, when you have a long enough period, when all hold'em games are in generally without profit.

I didn't see it in 888poker a good base of players. They have few players than pokerstars. Sometimes i want to play and i look at the number of the gamblers. There are not many and it seems strange. People praise this room but for me is too small. They must attract more persons.

I understand it can be annoying entering your details every time. But it must be something that has to do with security. It is a good site no doubt about that. And of course you cant say it is a small one. It has a large players base and you are right, they are having one promotion after another. Good for the small bankroll players...

Hi CALICUL, you are upset with 888poker...again? jajaja. You really have a love and hate relation with this site my friend. I think, like damosk, that this problem with the log in is a country´s problem. Here in Argentina, you still can check the "Remember me" box, and enter without put in all the info. But I understand that this is a bad situation...

I have a very bad time there with poker and sports betting. The last time when i won with football was a year ago and almost two months. It's incredible and i put between 2 matches and 9 on the ticket. Something is weird and i don't want to lose my money with 888. I want to win.

As you know, I never play in sport betting. So, that world is strange for me. But you love it CALICUL, isn´t it? By the way, you solved your problem to log in? Is really annoying to have to put in all the info every time you enter in the poker´s room. The only advantage that you have in 888poker is thar the poker´s client don´t shut off for security if you don´t be active. In Winamax you have only 20 minutes to that.
