That is what it is about being able to enjoy these live broadcasts, also as you say it is good that they give away some tickets for these great events, that makes us aware of what is happening this month at 888poker. sure there will be a lot of people connected.

I am glad because 888Poker has launched their official channel. I had a Twitch account for a few years and maybe i'll occasionally watch something there. I think interesting things can be seen here by players who want that. Congratulations for 888Poker and their new channel.

when I was younger,I did spend lot of time to watch live shows on you tube,ofcourse poker stars was first and best in this,but poker was in such a big expand in that time!now for sure I will not seat to watch this for hours and will gamble for my money,will be out of home or will have something other to do,no matter that are we still closed for lot of things! this kind of shows will be good for somebdoy who have 18,19,20 years to see how this poker world works and to grab some free prize to start playing!

I think this as DULE-VU says is for the youngest, that is true, now we are more connected to those platforms where we can spend hours playing and watching, the world has changed enormously and everyone is distracted and plays inside their homes with their devices.
Was checking already their channel. Looks like, that it,s the same, as PP Channel. Poker Streams 24 hours a day. Sometimes they give away some free tickets, but it,s really so many people on the stream, so you need to watch it regularly.

They are connected 24 hours a day, what is coolest about this is that you can get free tickets to some tournaments, or even receive passwords for free tournaments, I often like to see them to obtain passwords, but not for more than 1 hour, because I have to play too.

I like if they offer tickets for poker games. I haven't logged into Twitch yet, but honestly, i don't want to waste my time trying to win a ticket there. It is better to try satellites or freerolls games for that. Who wants to watch their channel can enjoy it, and i will do the same.

this is how this channels work in todays world and probably will in future also,when they dont have live things to show and who know when they will have lot of shows because of corona,then they will give you 24 hours of show from last years!but when you are older you will not spend hours to watch this channel,because you will have lot of things to do in life,not to seat and spend on this kind of things,even if you play some poker tournament!

It is true many will not spend all day to win a ticket, but if they can get passwords for some tournaments that are in certain specific rooms, what I sometimes do is see the free tournaments that are in the rooms, and there I go to get the passwords that are mostly in the Twitch chat, but I don't spend more than half an hour watching.

Interesting, will keep eye on this, realy want know how this will work out. But it sounds promising with intewieving pros, streaming online tourneys and so on. And after all you have 24 hours action of poker in case you want just to relax and you don't have someting better to do. Plus some more freerools.

as long as someone is interested in seeing certain things... or winning certain prizes... is fine. 888 Twitch offers something for viewers and is not to be denied, if time allows you to watch and maybe to win something nice. Good luck with watching at this channel and with prizes.
Free tickets is cool of course, but usually there are lots people on the stream and you need somu luck to be able to win this tickets. As i understand they give away this tickets only in special time, and usually lots of people want to win.

There are many benefits that will help you as a player, I think that on the one hand you will learn how to play poker while you watch and learn in the great tournaments that they transmit, you will also be aware of what happens with the room in question of its calendar, and finally gifts and promotions that you will have.

poker stars had first this kind of gifts in live streams,especially when some EPT is and then on every stream they will give password for freerolls and thats was only way to find out for pass,so you had to watch,but later you will find on forums it,but its not same,maybe it will be full! so probably 888 will do on same way,to give passwords on half of stream or some tickets if you guess some question or whatever!

That's right, all poker rooms should do this type of mass transmissions, so they will bring more players to the room, what happens is that there are also influencers in poker that transmit these games, they realize that they already have a I publish that follows them and it will be easier for them to get to play in the room.

I logged into Twitch a bit yesterday and watched a few hands at a table where Kara Scott was. At that moment she is not doing very well, but that is the situation. I haven't checked if there are prizes in online tournament tickets but maybe i'll do it today.
To be honest i don,t think, that this twitch streams can help you to become a better player or to improve your game. Usually people are watching it just to have some fun , or just to have the password for the freeroll. Not sure, that it can help you to learn something about the game.
