There in 888poker are some freeroll games for about 10-14 days. Here you get qualifications for a good satellite and main tournament is with $1.050 buy-in. I played almost every day and i didn't win anything, but yesterday i won two satellites tickets, both with the same value $27.50. I occupied places 66 from 5336 and 3 from 3206. If you have time you can try it, even if it is very difficult. Good luck, guys.

I don't expect to be lucky enough to qualify for such a big tournament, but i will try my luck of course. A chance, no matter how small she is, can bring a qualification. Maybe not now, but on another occasion... because 888 have many satellites in every year. Thank you very much for your words, and good luck with your games.

I played a ticket yesterday and from 202 players finished in 7th place. The top 5 won $ 1,050 ticket, sixth place $ 122.5 and i took $ 52.5. I had a chance for the first 5, but i lost with pocket. This is the situation. I was pretty lucky. 9th place lost over 90% of the stack with AA... Today i had a situation ... and i didn't play the second ticket. I will do it next week, but i have no high hopes.

Today i played a freeroll game again, to try to win. Luck was on my side and i won another $ 27.5 ticket yesterday or today ( depending on the time zone ), here at 888Poker. Now i have two chances again to try something beautiful, but is very hard , of course.

Damn man you are crushing those freeroll satelites. Si if i understand corectly you get to 27$ and 52$ ticket just from freerolls? That's pretty impresive. Just few more round and you are there haha. I usualy don't have nerves to play when i see those huge players fields and small number of payment. Respect for those results!

So the answer is this: I won 3 tickets with $ 27.5 buy-in at some frerolls of 888poker. After that i played one of them and from 202 players finished on the 7th place. 5 players took the entrance at 1050 dollars. The 6th place won 122.50 and me 52.50. In the other two games i finished on the 28th place out of 239 and on the 35th place out of 373. I didn't win anything but I'm insistent on winning something good at a time.

you had a nice run , geep it up . I miself couldn t get any because the most awarding freeroll is played when i m at work ....wish it could be at a better hour but who can ever complain about a freeroll. 888 alawais had good promotions thought ,probably thats why they get ranked better and better every time .

you're right about 888pokerpromotions, bonuses or freerolls, but they need to improve the quality of the satellites and after that many players will register for them. The biggest amount i won there in one game is not too big ( almost $ 470 ), but i hope for more.

888 will have a new $ 1 million game and players who can play there should check how to qualify for it. Follow the email where you created the account and maybe you received details there. It is too important game and it is a sin if you do not try to qualify.
------------ I played in this tournament on Monday and I was close to making money. I don't know what happened to this very stingy software because I risked a few hands and lost them all. In the end I gave the whole stack with J J and lost against A 8 with an A on the flop. I lost a possible beautiful bankroll.
