888poker

Hello. I would appreciate your help in resolving my situation. For my withdrawal request, I was asked to provide a Neteller statement. I submitted the document, which contains my personal details and address matching the address registered in my 888poker account, however the statement was rejected due to an “address discrepancy”. I have already resent the statement together with a screenshot from my account profile, but I still have not received a response from support. I would be grateful if you could advise what the issue might be and how this situation can be resolved. https://preview.redd.it/ikv968wt8u1h1.png?width=1035&format=png&auto=webp&s=b5c44122af496088fd7e0f17544302f75ff28311

Dear 888poker Support Team, I am writing to report a technical issue regarding two tournaments I am currently registered in and playing. My nickname is: negozin https://preview.redd.it/ps13p9jnvh1h1.png?width=792&format=png&auto=webp&s=cf598de697d3be651278181630b999a5fc9bb2c7 As of **09:28 AM (UTC)** on **16.05.2026**, both tournaments have completely frozen/paused while their state remains as "Running". The tables are unresponsive, making it impossible to continue playing. Here are the details of the affected tournaments: * **Tournament 1 ID:** 290790015 * **Name:** $ 300 PLO Mystery Bounty 2.20 * **Buy-in:** $2.20 * **Tournament 2 ID:** 290792153 * **Name:** $ 300 Early PKO 2.20 * **Buy-in:** $2.20 Due to this technical failure on the platform's side, I am requesting a full refund of the buy-ins paid. Ideally, I would appreciate it if the compensation could be calculated proportionally based on my current chip count stack at the moment of the freeze, according to your standard cancellation policy. I have attached a screenshot of my registration lobby showing both tournaments stuck in this state for your reference. I look forward to your quick response and resolution. Best regards, negozin

I just wanted to give a short update regarding my case. After spending months trying to obtain a comprehensible explanation directly from 888poker, I have now officially submitted a complaint to the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA). The full complaint, including all relevant documents, email correspondence, and the contradictory communication from 888, has now been submitted. What I continue to find especially problematic is the highly contradictory communication from 888poker. On May 5th, 2026, I first received an official withdrawal confirmation for my full remaining balance of €505.14: > Only three days later, however, I then received another email from the Executive Relations Team stating that my formal complaint under reference number 2533225 was still under review: > This already directly contradicted the previous statements claiming that the decision had supposedly already been final. Then, only a few days later, on May 11th, 2026, I received yet another completely opposite statement: > So in practical terms, the sequence was: * first a supposedly final permanent ban, * then an official withdrawal confirmation, * then confirmation that my complaint was still under review, * and finally another reversal stating that the funds would remain confiscated after all. To this day, despite: * full cooperation, * successful verification, * extensive explanations, * videos of my gameplay and setup, * and the later public clarification regarding permitted software, I still have not received any concrete explanation, comprehensible evidence, or clearly identified rule violation. At this point, I no longer view this merely as an individual support issue, but rather as a broader question of transparency, proportionality, and fair treatment of player funds by a licensed operator. Thanks again to everyone who looked at the case objectively and shared their thoughts.

Thank you for reaching out. Please note that the email addresses [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) and [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) are no longer active support channels, which is why you did not receive a response. To assist you further regarding your account reactivation request, we have already sent you a private message. Kindly check your Reddit inbox and reply there so we can continue assisting you.

Hello, I am trying to reopen my previously closed 888poker account but I cannot contact support. I already sent multiple emails to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) and [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) but received no response. I also cannot access Live Chat because: * my account is closed, * the mobile app is not available in my region/store. Username: MrPam Could someone from the support team please help me reactivate my account or contact me privately? Thank you.

I’m trying to access my 888poker account, but I received a message saying that my account has been temporarily disabled. I would like to understand the reason for this and what steps I need to take to restore access. I confirm that I do not use any RTA software, bots, charts during gameplay, or any tools that provide real-time assistance. I am available to provide any documents or information required to complete the verification process. Please let me know how to proceed. Thank you

Yeah, I know my rights and you know exactly the shit-show you subjected me to for six months. This response makes me wonder if you are human or just an AI bot, I suspect the latter. Folks, do NOT deposit money with 888 Poker! If you did make that unfortunate decision, and 888 is now refusing to process your withdrawal, do what I did: **Save all correspondence and submitted documents. File a “Complaint Resolution Request” with the Gibraltar Gambling Commission. Inform 888 that you have filed the official complaint. This was the only thing that worked for me, they screwed me over for six months.**

I’m starting to think I’ll need to resurrect my grandmother just to get a “proof of life” document before 888poker finally accepts my verification. I’ve already changed the electricity bill from my brother’s name to mine specifically for this process. I submitted it, and it still got rejected. The worst part is that they don’t even explain what’s wrong anymore. In the past, at least they would tell you why the document was rejected. Now it’s just a generic “verification failed” email and you’re left guessing what the issue is. One time they ask for a photo of the document. You send a photo, then suddenly they want a scanned photocopy instead. Then another document. Then another format. It feels like an endless loop. And judging by Reddit, Trustpilot, AskGamblers, and Reclame Aqui, I’m clearly not the only one dealing with this. There are countless reports from players saying: \* documents are repeatedly rejected with no explanation; \* support keeps asking for the same information over and over; \* withdrawals get delayed for weeks or months because of verification; \* proof of address documents accepted by other platforms somehow “don’t qualify” on 888poker. What I genuinely don’t understand is this: Why isn’t this extremely strict verification process done BEFORE people are allowed to deposit and play? Depositing money takes 2 minutes. But the moment you try to withdraw, suddenly the process becomes a bureaucratic nightmare. I understand KYC and security checks are necessary. Every poker site does them. But at least give clear feedback about what is wrong with the document instead of making users play detective trying to guess why they were rejected.

Hi 888poker Representative, I am writing this to express my deep frustration regarding a withdrawal request that has been stuck for over 20 days now. I currently have a balance of \~$5,000 in my account, and despite following all the standard procedures, the funds have not been released. I have tried reaching out to support multiple times, but I haven't received a clear explanation or a timeline for when I will receive my money. 20 days is well beyond the acceptable processing time for any reputable poker site. It is very concerning to have such a significant amount of money held up without proper communication. Could you please look into my case and expedite the process? I am happy to provide my account details via Private Message (PM) to get this resolved immediately. Looking forward to your prompt response.

Hi everyone, I’m posting here because I’m having trouble resolving an issue with my 888poker account through support. Recently, I received notifications about changes to my registered email address and phone number that I did not authorize. Because of this, I believe my account may have been compromised. I already contacted the Operations Team and provided a copy of my ID document for identity verification, along with my account details: Username: MathMend I’m currently waiting for assistance to restore and secure access to my account. Has anyone experienced something similar with 888poker? How long did it take for support to resolve it?

Olá, equipe de suporte do 888poker, Minha conta no 888poker está configurada em BRL (Real Brasileiro) e gostaria de saber se é possível alterar a moeda da conta para USD (Dólar Americano). Prefiro jogar e gerenciar meu bankroll em USD daqui para frente. Por favor, me informe se essa alteração é possível e se alguma verificação ou informação adicional é necessária. Agradeço a atenção e o suporte. Atenciosamente, email: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Hello, quick story to open some players eyes. I played for a few years at ggpoker under the nick III PRO III and I never had any issues. One day in 2023 October, I decided to contact ggpoker security team to have my account real name verified “R Martins”. I got an email from them saying they found out my IP and Machine was linked to 15 accounts created recently and if I ever create another account I’d be banned for life. I told them they are probably confusing me with someone else due to my real name verification and I never had any other accounts. They ended up verifying my real name account. One month later they sent me an email saying I was banned for life. I was like, what the hell? I explained them everything but they don’t listen, apparently they have to be right at all costs. 2 years forward I created an account with Olybet another skin and I was fully KYC and I linked to my GGpass. And I got my old account back. I thought that maybe they had lifted the ban due to their past mistake. Today when I tried to log in my account was frozen. No point to even contact them, I already know where this is going. For everyone who is reading this, I give you my honest word I never broke any rules or had any accounts or anything. I have accounts in pokerstars, 888 poker, CoinPoker, WPT global, party poker I never had a single issue. I can say with 100% certainty that ggpoker security is incompetent. They never reply to emails or want to listen to my side of the story.

Hi u/No-Giraffe4741, As per our specialized team, we do not continuously review every third-party software or its updates. However, if the software complies with our user agreement requirements, there should be no issue using it. Based on a brief review, and assuming the software only provides hotkeys, custom grids, and basic in-game statistics limited to the table the player is currently at, it should be acceptable. However, since we do not control or monitor future updates, it is the player’s responsibility to ensure that the software does not introduce any features that would conflict with our user agreement. Our User agreement can be found on the below link including a section describing the type of software aids we do and don’t allow.

They do.. this is another dog and pony show… just fluff to get that next deposit. They are just frauds 10000% I actually am retired and play everyday as a hobby now.. so when I’m playing i come here and spam the hell out of the page (And many other) You should check out “cards chat” they might have some better methods of getting your money back. I know the like 500,000 members they have agree not to play on 888 poker anymore as it’s just a scam

Haha you strongly recommend against this because it actually works.. and the payment process companies after enough charge back will drop 888 poker… PLAYERS have nothing to worry about with charge backs as banks understand how scammy you people are this is how your business that’s already on its last leg caves. I’ve told you my issues days ago, I’ve put my proof here in view.. you’ve done nothing…. Again fix the my damn problem and I’ll stop exposing you… this is just Reddit.. imagine how many people I’ve reached on social media.. All over a $20 bonus.. guess you should have done the right thing huh. But honestly folks, charge backs might close your 888 account.. but that’s all.. you’ll get all your money back (even if you’ve already lost it)

It actually unreal how they think this can hold up for the long run.. like their budgets gotten so cheap they haven’t been able to hid all the bad reviews and fraudulent activities.. I’m in Canada.. I few years ago.. every second ad was for 888 poker… haha I thought they went under.. tried them out and they don’t honor bonus codes it’s unreal ahaha they deserve to go out of business… the buddy says “I’ll message you privately” to mask their incompetence. It’s a great thing this is a public forum and people can see how scammy this site is

Would it not be a bright idea to fix real issues and make customers happy then provide BS excuses… I tried to use a bonus sent to me via email.. look at the picture… I then try and use the bonus… it won’t let me… it takes my deposit (big shocker the fraud takes my money and doesn’t honor the promo… Why don’t you fix the issue… I don’t want a private massage.. spill the beans here why you are not honoring the bonus code provided in the chat here… It’s funny you never actually reply in the comment you always need to mask your fraud with private messages. Those two images are pretty cut and dry you sent me the offer and then it doesn’t work… again why reply in the comments or you could actually just do the right thing and fix it. Folks play at partypoker they at least have a customer service department.. not some monkey on Reddit covering up their fraud

Maybe someone can explain this, because it doesn’t make sense to me. I earned points from rake playing poker and redeemed a $10 cash bonus. It was labeled as an “Immediate Bonus”, so I expected to get at least something right away. But in reality: * the bonus just sits in my account * it requires $350 wagering * I’ve already played about $545 in tournament buy-ins (poker only) * and I’ve received $0 from the bonus So my question is – does poker not count towards the wagering at all? If that’s the case: * why is this bonus even offered for poker rake? * and why call it “immediate” if you don’t actually get anything immediately? Feels pretty misleading. If anyone knows how this actually works, would appreciate the clarification.

Lancei a primeira versão Preview Beta do PokerTrack Studio e estou procurando feedback de quem joga ou revisa torneios de poker. O PokerTrack Studio é um aplicativo desktop para Windows criado para ajudar jogadores a organizar e revisar mãos e torneios com mais clareza. Nesta versão inicial, o foco principal é em torneios MTT do 888poker. Outros sites, formatos ou históricos de mãos podem não funcionar corretamente ainda. Nesta versão inicial: \* foco em torneios MTT do 888poker; \* limite de 50 mãos; \* foco em testes e feedback; \* suporte inicial para organização e revisão; \* melhorias ainda em desenvolvimento; \* interface principalmente em PT-BR por enquanto. Importante: o app não promete lucro, ganho financeiro ou resultado garantido no poker. Ele é apenas uma ferramenta de estudo e organização. Download da Preview: [https://philliprhr.github.io/pokertrack-studio-site/](https://philliprhr.github.io/pokertrack-studio-site/) Se alguém puder testar e me dizer se a instalação, o carregamento de torneio e a navegação ficaram claros, vai me ajudar bastante.

From 3 May through 12 May, the platform will home to events that stack up over $1,500,000 in total guarantees. Here is what that’s going to look like. # What the XL Spring Series Has Planned for 2026 The 2026 XL Spring Series schedule is nothing short of impressive, with over 70 tournaments scheduled during the ten-day tournament. All of it is centered around the **RAKELESS $500,000 GTD Mystery Bounty Main Event**, which concludes on the last day of the festival, May 12. The Main Event comes in with a $250 buy-in but more importantly, it’s completely rakeless, meaning everything goes towards the prize pool. If the $250 buy-in is on the heavier side, there is also the returning **$50,000 GTD Mystery Bounty Mini Main Event**, with a buy-in of just $25. # How to Secure Your Seat for the 2026 XL Spring Series 888poker plans for this edition of the XL Spring Series to be as inclusive as possible. That’s why, apart from directly buying into the tournament, players are being given three alternative routes to enter: * **Step Satellites:** Available for as little as **one cent**. * **Daily Freerolls:** Participate in the “No-Ticket Needed” XL Spring Series Freerolls to win a seat for $0. * **Social Media Giveaways:** XL Spring Series Main Event seats and tournament tickets are being given out across 888poker social media channels.  # XL Spring Series 2026 Schedule |**Date**|**Time**|**XL Spring Series 2026**|**Buy-in**|**GTD**| |:-|:-|:-|:-|:-| |3-May|15:00|XL Spring #01 –

by [Iva Dozet](https://www.pokerlistings.com/author/iva_dozets_pl)

Ive recently started jumping back into freeroll tournaments after not playing them for a while, and the experience feels a bit different than I remembered. On the big platforms like PokerStars and 888poker, the fields are huge and the games drag on for a long time. Unless you make a deep run, it kind of feels like a lot of time for very little return. Its not necessarily a bad thing, but it does feel more like a grind than I expected. At the same time, Ive tried a few smaller freerolls too, and those felt noticeably different. Fewer players, quicker pace, and in some cases the structure felt a bit more straightforward and less chaotic. One of them even reminded me of those no-rake style environments, where the focus feels more on actual play instead of just surviving a massive field. That got me wondering if freerolls are really all the same thing, or if the value depends a lot on where youre playing them. For people who still grind freerolls, whats your take? Are they actually useful for practice, or just something to pass time until real games?

​ Hi everyone, I am writing this to get some urgent assistance regarding my account "SizingTour". A few months ago, I was asked to provide "Source of Funds" documentation. I submitted all requested information immediately and complied with several follow-up requests. There were multiple rounds of such documentation requests over several months, and every single time, I provided all the necessary information as requested. However, on April 8th, I received an email stating that my account had been suspended by a "company decision," and I have been unable to log into the game client since then. When I contacted support to clarify the situation and offered further cooperation or video verification, I was simply told to wait. Then, 10 days ago, I received an automated notification that my funds had been put on cashout. It is important to note that 888 support initiated this cashout themselves. Despite the notification, it has now been 10 days and the funds have still not arrived in my Luxon Pay account. I emailed support 3 days ago for an update but have not received a response. The amount involved is very significant, and I want to reiterate that I am fully ready to cooperate, provide any further documents, or jump on a video call to resolve this. I just need to understand where my funds are and when I will receive them. Can someone from the team please look into this? Thank you.

I submitted a withdrawal request to 888 Poker last August. That began their six months of bullshit where they continually requested my banking information, which I sent to them over and over again, in different formats, with everything they asked for. They would continually reject it, saying it did not meet their standards etc. (This is despite the fact that I had been an 888 player for many years, with many earlier deposits and withdrawals, didn’t matter.) I even set up a brand new bank account at a different bank (Royal Bank, largest bank in Canada) and sent them all the info, official bank documents directly from the bank branch. They still rejected it. In February of this year, I submitted a “Complaint Resolution Request” to the Gibraltar Gambling Commission. It was over 50 pages of all the correspondence and submitted documents, that’s how much bullshit they put me through. I informed 888 Poker that I had submitted the official complaint and my withdrawal was processed three days later. Good luck, don’t give up, keep fighting!

I've never seen so many problems in such a short time on any poker platform as on 888, and it's not specific to one region; it's simply happening on every continent where the platform operates. There are complaints about withdrawals, undeposited bonuses, account verification problems, among others. And from what I've seen, it's been at least two months since there's been an official statement on any official 888 channel clearly explaining why there are so many problems and how they will solve them. This lack of transparency will cause the platform to lose players in the short and long term.

The Irish Open’s Afterparty has been running since April 12th with a $3,000,000 guarantee. Plenty of that is still up for grabs in a range of bounty tournaments this weekend. Concurrently on GGPoker, the Bounty Hunters Series has a whopping $80,000,000 in guaranteed prize money up for grabs. There is major value for the low-stakes players to get a slice of the sizeable prize pools on offer. Here is a look at a few to jump into. # Bounty Hunting on GGPoker As expected with a Bounty Hunter Series, there is plenty of knockout action to get involved with on GGPoker over the weekend. From standard PKOs to Mystery Bounties, players are spoilt for choice when it comes to game selection over the coming days. # $15 Mini Friday Night Fight [6-Max] To kick off the weekend, the Friday Night Fight comes packed with a $125,000 prize pool and a generous 10-minute level structure. Bounties start at $3.50 a head, and the total bounty prize pool makes up half of the overall total. Levels will shorten to 7 minutes in length when registration closes at Level 16. The tournament kicks off at 7 p.m. GMT. Players are allowed unlimited entries for this tournament. As always, play responsibly and within your means. With all of these tournaments, any knockouts scored will earn points for the $41k+ Daily Bounty King Leaderboard. To learn more about the leaderboard, [click here](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/ggpoker-calls-players-to-arms-with-bounty-hunters-series-this-april). # $15 Mini Saturday Secret KO [Mystery Bounty] The first of three Mystery Bounty tournaments of the weekend for low-stakes players comes in the form of the $250,000 guaranteed $15 Mini Saturday Secret KO. Starting at 7 p.m. GMT, players will be looking to build a stack and battle for bounties once the tournament is in the money. Players have 17 Levels of late registration, with unlimited re-entries. Levels run for 8 minutes throughout, and a staggering $125,000 will be up for grabs via the elusive Mystery Bounty Chest. Expect these numbers to be smashed, and it would be no surprise to see the total prize pool balloon to over $300,000. # $15 Mini Showdown [Mystery Bounty] Coming in with an even bigger prize pool, the Mini Showdown will have $300,000 in prize money guaranteed from the get-go. Kicking off at 2.30 p.m. GMT on Sunday, 19th, players have 13 Levels to register, all of which are 12 minutes long. After that, the levels decrease to 8 minutes. Expect this tournament to be huge. Really huge. In the last four runnings of this event, over 20,000 entered on each occasion. With $150,000 to be pulled from the briefcase, it is no surprise to see why. A second running of this takes place on the same day at 9 p.m. GMT with the same structure and a $200,000 prize pool for those looking to grind long into the small hours of Monday morning. # $15 Bounty Freezout The Freezeout is a taste of old school poker with a bounty twist. In this $100,000 guaranteed event, you have to make your one bullet count, with no rebuys allowed. Starting at 7.30 p.m. GMT on Sunday, players have 13 Levels to register, all of which are 12 minutes long. After that, the levels decrease to 8 minutes. If you have not signed up for GGPoker and want to get involved in this weekend’s action, [click here to sign up](https://play.pokerlistings.com/fe3FqSw). # Bounties Up For Grabs at The Afterparty The Irish Open craic will be coming to an end on Monday, 20th, but before the hangover kicks in, and the [tour goes international](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/the-irish-poker-open-goes-global), there is a decent array of bounty-based tournaments to register on PokerStars. # $5.50 NLHE [Micro Bounty Builder HR] A staple in the schedules of many low-stakes grinders, this $5.50 comes with a tasty $20,000 prize pool and a starting bounty of $1.25. It features eight-minute levels throughout and 2 hours of registration. Players have a maximum of five re-entries during that period. Cards will be in the air at 5.30 p.m. GMT on Friday, April 17th. # $5.50 NLHE [Progressive Big KO, Mini Banshee] Starting at the same time on Saturday, this variation sees more of the buy-in go into the bounty prize pool. Players will start with $1.50 on their heads. They will have 2 hours and 15 minutes of late registration and up to five re-entries. These $5.50 tournaments are lots of fun, and definitely worth playing. # $22 NLHE [7-Max, The Leprechaun Big Mystery] Of course, there is Mystery Bounty action as well. Starting at 8.05 p.m. GMT, this tournament will see its $40,000 prize pool split in half between the briefcase and the payouts table. Registration is available for 2 hours, levels are 8 minutes, and players have up to five re-entries. If it is a little out of your price range, or you want a discount, consider playing the satellites. There is a $2.20 with 20 seats guaranteed at 6.40 p.m. GMT or a $4.40 with 25 seats at 7.30 p.m. # $11 Sunday Storm PKO 2-Day Event The iconic Sunday Storm runs once again this Sunday, starting at 7.05 p.m. GMT. A must-play for grinders, the tournament comes with 10-minute levels and a total play time of 6 hours and 50 minutes for Day 1. Players start with $2.50 on their heads, and $5 of each buy-in goes into the bounty pool. Registration is available for 3 hours, and Day 2 play resumes at the same start time on Monday. Want to get involved in the action on PokerStars? [Sign up here](https://play.pokerlistings.com/CGCGMTX). # ACR It’s safe to say that ACR will be ‘blazing’ the stakes this weekend as the Hi5 Series commences on Sunday, 19th, with $4,000,000 guaranteed. Here is a look at the offerings. # $8.80 PKO The Mini Stash The first of the Hi5 tournaments comes with a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool and 20-minute levels until Level 13. There will be 4 hours of registration available, and it starts at 2.05 p.m. GMT on Sunday. Players have the option for unlimited re-entry. An hour earlier, a vanilla equivalent of this tournament starts. If a player wins both of the tournaments, they receive an additional $2,500 from ACR. For reaching both final tables, you will get $250. # $11 Bounty Blaze PKO This $11 event comes with the same structure as the Mini Stash, but with a much larger prize pool of $25,000. Again there will be four hours of registration and unlimited entries. The Bounty Blaze starts at 6.30 p.m. GMT on Sunday.

In April 2026, established streamer, UpswingPoker coach and [888poker](https://www.pokerlistings.com/poker-sites/888-poker) ambassador **Aaron “abarone68” Barone** became one of them by creating a prop bet for himself. Since the challenge wasn’t impossible for a seasoned professional, he managed to complete it without too much fanfare. However, that doesn’t mean it was a walk in a park. # abarone68’s Prop Bet Terms Aaron started looking for people to bet against him on April 3rd, noting that he was looking to do a prop bet with following rules: * 150 unique MTTs * Time limited to 24 hours * Start on April 15th, 2026 * Re-entries and rebuys do not count * ABI$40-50 * All on stream To win this challenge, Aaron had to finish this session in profit. The idea was to play in only three poker rooms with buy-ins: * 888poker — all tournaments from $11 to $215 * GGPoker — Bounty Hunters, Bigs, Hypers and Turbos from $20 and higher * PokerStars — Bigs, Bounty Builders, Hypers from $22 and higher While some people criticized Aaron for choosing a challenge that was boring to watch, the majority was ready to watch him succed (and struggle) for 24 hours. Abarone68 Poll A week later Aaron decided to lower ABI to $30 and clarified how the session hours would be counted — from the moment he’s dealt into the first tournament. As an extra treat for viewers, he announced two giveaways for the stream: * One month of UpswingPoker membership for every final table he makes. * $55 tickets on 888poker and % of his fellow ambassadors’ scores at the €888 Barcelona Main Event as a part of Aaron’s “Bink in Barcelona” promotion. As a warm-up, he went streaming on April 10th, setting a 100 MTTs benchmark to see how long it will take. He managed to reach 101 MTTs in 11 hours and 52 minutes by playing an average of 18-22 tournaments simultaneously with buy-ins between $15 and $525. However, this attempt formally failed because he spent $10,941 on buy-ins but won only $9,814, finishing “the trial” stream $1,127 in the red. The Trial Stream # Why Aaron Barone Decided to Initiate a Prop Bet While abarone68 is known for his charitable activities, using streams to unite people for a noble cause, this time the reasoning behind the challenge wasn’t about charity. The day before the challenge broadcast started, Aaron shared that he [wanted to reach two goals](https://x.com/abarone68/status/2044182484452323438?s=20): to remind the community about periods when challenges like this one made people fall in love with poker but also — to publicly express his love for the poker grind: Aaron “abarone68” Barone I grew up in the 2+2 era of online poker, where prop bets were a [thing.It](http://thing.It) was also my first introduction to ‘influencers,’ as posters would set obscene challenges, pushing themselves to their physical and mental limits. I was inspired. I set a few of my own challenges, with varying degrees of success, and then at some point I looked up and the culture had faded away.   He continued: “*Surprisingly, a lot of people simply aren’t aware of this time period — My theory is, and this isn’t a criticism, but because they’re too young or too old as both groups simply weren’t familiar with the internet back then.  🤣* *As an influencer, part of me thought I could use my platform to recapture some of that nostalgia and show people what helped me fall in love with the game of poker. But that’s not the main reason I’m doing this prop bet. The main reason is selfish — I’m attempting to play 150 MTTs tomorrow because I love the grind. I love loading a million tables, feverishly clicking through spots, and realizing I’ve got many deep runs to sweat. It’s exhilarating to have a big stack in a tournament, but somehow almost as fun to be battling for hours with the shorstack. Doesn’t seem possible, but it’s true!* *Tomorrow, I get the opportunity to do all of that on a scale that I’ve never done before. I get to play more poker than I’ve ever played before. And that means more big hands, more crazy bluffs, and ultimately, more fun.* *Who knows, might just make a bit of money, too. “* # 150 MTTs per 24 Hours Prop Bet Results Being the pro we all want to become when we grow up, Aaron beat 150 MTTs for 16 hours and 20 minutes. He had $90-ish profit at that point. While he won the prop bet, Aaron didn’t stop playing for the next hour, finishing the last six events. So, formally, his challenge and stream ended at 17 hours and 15 minutes into the broadcast with a profit of $690. Aaron managed to keep his focus and composure during the entire stream, even though his eyes were visibly puffy during the last few hours. The Challenge However, he was quite pleased with himself, stating on the stream: I’m glad I won. I’m glad that it was fun for most of the time. I’m also glad it’s over. I don’t know when the next \[one will be\]. Initially, I thought: “When I win this challenge, then I’ll do another challenge at some point quite soon”. We’ll see. Right now, I would like to just rest. But I know that I play more tables than most people do. And I’ve done this for a long time being a professional poker player. But I hope, me dropping down stakes a little bit today and playing this long of a session as well as my normal Friday marathon sessions is at least somewhat…inspiring is a bit strong but at least somewhat motivational to show you that it is possible to grind through the variance. And you don’t need to be the best, you don’t need to play the highest stakes. You can be successful at this game and other things in life even when things don’t go your way. ***PokerListings congratulates Aaron Barone on successfully completing the challenge and winning the bet. We hope the next challenge will be even more impressive!*** Source: [https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/tired-but-satisfied-abarone68-won-the-24-hours-prop-bet](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/tired-but-satisfied-abarone68-won-the-24-hours-prop-bet) by [Vasilisa Zyryanova](https://www.pokerlistings.com/author/vasilisa)

Just wanted to know if Im ever gonna get paid with my winnings that I’ve been waiting for 2 effing weeks! I’ve made 3 withdrawals a total of US$4450 on Mar 31st, 888poker asked me for my ID’s and E-transfer confirmations to verify my account and Paystubs and proof of address, so I sent them. I also included my Email confirmation that I made my withdrawals, all 3 of them. last friday April 10th, the accepted all the info that I provided, but asked me for my bank statement, which I did sent and still got nothing, no progress or even get my withdrawals processed, nothing. I don’t think my location is the problem here coz i’ve been playing for their site for a long time and this is the first time they’ve screwed me over my withdrawals. Im from alberta, but that shouldn’t matter. I’ve been waiting for my winnings for more than 2 freaking weeks now and I still got nothing. this has been affecting my mental health and constant stress, coz i could really use that winnings for bills and other expenses. i’ll attached all the screenshot that I have as proof of my withdrawals, e-transfer and there confirmation on my withdrawals and also there response to me.

Posting this to document my ongoing experience with 888Casino Ontario regarding a $6,505 withdrawal. Timeline: • March 31, 2026 – Requested withdrawal via wire transfer • Status remained “Awaiting process” for over 2 weeks • Submitted ALL requested documents: – Bank statement showing Apple Pay deposits (requested multiple times) – Valid government-issued ID (Ontario driver’s license) • ID was initially rejected as “invalid type,” then resubmitted and accepted • Bank statement was also submitted again and confirmed processed • I have now received confirmation that: – My documents are successfully processed – My account is fully verified Despite this: • Withdrawal is still not processed • Status has not changed • No clear timeline has been provided Support responses have been repetitive: \- “Your case has been escalated” \- “We are following up” \- “Please allow more time” At one point, support explicitly stated that the bank statement was required “to release your pending withdrawal” — which I provided, and it has since been approved. Screenshots attached for full transparency. At this stage, there appears to be no remaining verification requirement, yet the withdrawal remains unpaid. If this is not resolved immediately, I will be filing a formal complaint with iGaming Ontario and the relevant regulatory bodies. Posting this as a public record of the situation. 888 is licensed under VHL Ontario Limited, otherwise associated with Evoke. cbcreporter101 u/cbcreporter101 u/toronto\_star I invite you to take a look at this province wide discrepancy occuring with u/ 888pokerSupport\_gm where Ontario users are not receiving withdrawals and being constantly gaslighted even though gaming is regulated by iGaming and AGCO within the province of Ontario. 888Casino operates through Evoke and is itself regulated by the gaming commision of Gibraltar yet they continue to withhold money from players without offering any transparency for the delays that are regularly surpassing their published wait times over and over again

It’s been 2 years now and nothing has happened. I’m checking in briefly to ask for an update regarding the pause button. The current placement right next to the table layout/lobby button is a major issue. I, and many other players, have lost significant money due to accidental clicks. Other sites like GGPoker have solved this easily by requiring the button to be held for a few seconds to activate. Why is it so difficult for 888 Poker to implement a similar safety feature? **Please realize that you are losing many German customers and likely players from other countries too, because of this frustrating UI. Many of us are at the point where we will simply stop playing on your site and move to competitors who offer a safer user experience.** With today’s technology, this should be a fast fix. Please finally take action to prevent further customer loss.

888 poker how is this possible in 2026? i play in most of the poker sites out there and i can tell you, with all the confidence, that you are the ONLY ONE IN THE MARKET that proccesses cash outs in 3 bussiness days, why is this possible? List of pokersites that cash out faster than you: Pokerstars: instant cash out. GGpoker: 6 hours cash out (depends at what hour you cash out, most cash outs in my country reach my wallet at midnight). KKpoker: 6 hours ACR: 20 minutes. PartyPoker: 2 hours. WPT: 1 hour or less. Betonline: 1 hour or less. **888 Poker: 72 hours??????? incredible!** Youll keep losing players if you dont update.

I just played a free roll tournament and won a ticket for $109 tournament. platform is 888poker. I'm a semi beginner player at micro stakes with a grand total of 2 non free roll tournament play. I played two paid tournaments in my life that I can recall, for a 0.10$ buy in each They were extremely boring I couldn't get the patience to grind, the correct VPIP felt like 10% I find sit and go much better. What am I supposed to do with this tournament ticket, I'll 98% lose if I play it, which is 10x my bank roll. For context, I live in a third world country where 1$ is a lot to spend on recreational poker. So I'm quite the splashy type to have a 10$ bank roll per month. If I utilize this ticket, I can at least become a non losing player for 6 months. Can I divide the ticket into 10? Get a refund or sell it? Advice.

Hi 888poker team, I’m reaching out here because we’re a bit concerned about a communication issue. For some reason, we are not receiving all emails from [**[email protected]**](), and we’re worried this might affect our Barcelona 888 Live package that we’ve won. We did receive one email asking us to send our details and sign a guarantee letter. However, the attachment (the actual document to sign) was missing. Because of this, we’re concerned that we might miss important steps or deadlines simply due to emails not reaching us. Would it be possible to arrange an alternative way of communication? For example, a short phone call with someone from the Live Events team to make sure everything is handled correctly.

We try to highlight interesting patterns and standout performances at every limit, from NL10 all the way up to the overall rankings. But first, as always, a few important notes: * StatName tracks net profit at cash tables. Rakeback, leaderboard rewards, and promotional bonuses are not included in the statistics. * StatName only tracks results at regular cash tables (fast-fold tables are excluded). * StatName data may differ slightly from your HUD due to import inaccuracies, but the sample sizes remain representative and provide a reliable picture of player performance. # NL/PL10: Guilherme “Schutz21” dos Santos Takes First Place With $1.1K Schutz21 continues to demonstrate a stratospheric win rate. He was already in the top 3 of our rankings in [January 2026](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/top-cash-game-players-january-2026), when he managed to win an average of $0.95 per hand at NL10. In March, his win rate was slightly lower: $0.92 per hand. However, he managed to win more overall. [February 2026](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/top-cash-game-players-february-2026) NL/PL10  leader, McCormack.I, finished second with a profit of $1.1K — $124 more than he won in March. StatName NL/PL10 # NL/PL25: nastja336 Wins 92 Stacks nastja336 has been a regular among the top players since 2019. However, nastja336 usually plays NL50. Last year, they made it into the top 5 players with a profit of $17,000 at $0.25/0.50. As we can see, moving down in stakes was successful. In March 2026, nastja336 managed to earn $2.3K. ***By the way, you can track an unlimited number of players for free on StatName up to NLH/PLO25.*** StatName NL/PL25 # NL/PL50: Newcomer AleJunior001 Becomes Best Player in the Limit If you think the same players make it to the top of the best players list month after month, you’re wrong. AleJunior001 and MyBestPokeR won $5.3K and $5K, respectively. And we’re seeing these two players’ names for the first time. Incidentally, Mangilik was already in our rankings. Last month, he absolutely crushed NL200 with an $18K profit. We don’t know why, but he decided to drop two stakes lower. But in March, he showed a profit of $4.7K. StatName NL/PL50 # NL/PL100: iPoker Players Are on Top Two players from iPoker network rooms topped the rankings: HangdoG ($10K profit) and DemonZINCh ($8.1K profit). HangdoG is making his debut in our rankings, while DemonZINCh also finished second in February with a profit of $6.5K. StatName NL/PL100 # NL200: MartaiMrko3 Tops the Rankings The top spot is once again occupied by an iPoker player making our rankings for the first time. MartaiMrko3 earned $16K in profit. The players just below us are already familiar. They include kebab-setä, the best stakes player of 2024 and 2025, and AlexEliseev7, one of the best NL100 players from last year. As we can see, the climb up the stakes is proceeding successfully. StatName NL200 # NL/PL500: M4D_ T1LT Is Back With $11K Profit M4D\_ T1LT needs no introduction. This is the best NL500 player 2023 & [2025](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/top-online-cash-game-players-of-2025-profits-winrates-and-volume) \+ second-best NL500 player 2024. This is his best monthly result so far in 2026.

As you can see and probably has noticed when playing this site cuts your game connection without reason many times probably in special when you are fine. Playing casino happens the same and even worse putting some kind of clock and hiding the live game be really careful because it does not happen at other poker or casino sites I checked it playing simultaneously And to add 888 skin if you appreciate looks just for playing from mobile not from pc or lap like other sites.

I finished in the top 50 on the $5,450 888Club - Level 40+ Freeroll on 04/04/2026 on 888 Poker, but I have not been paid the prize, a $109 tournament ticket. I contacted the live support chat but they have been no help. I'm really dissapointed because in the past I have always had a good experience when using 888. https://preview.redd.it/gb3jpy68vetg1.png?width=1262&format=png&auto=webp&s=f00b909ca90ee4df55cc4276dd00768177329c1e

I have been trying to figure out the **best poker sites in Canada** without falling into the usual trap of reading ten different ranking pages that all sound the same. The more I looked, the more obvious it got that Canada is not one simple market. Provincial rules matter a lot. Ontario is the biggest example, because it has a regulated open market with multiple licensed poker operators, while other provinces lean more on provincial platforms instead of a big shared private-operator setup. PlayCanada currently lists five licensed online poker platforms in Ontario, and it also notes that Ontario poker is ring-fenced to players physically located in the province. # That already changes the whole conversation for me. So I am not really asking for another generic top 10. I am trying to work out what people actually mean when they say the **best poker sites in Canada**. Are we talking about Ontario-only real-money poker rooms? Provincial platforms like PlayNow in BC? Atlantic lottery poker products? Or are people just mixing poker, casino, and sportsbook brands together in one big list? PlayNow currently shows poker for British Columbia residents, while Atlantic Lottery offers online gaming including poker-style content in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador. # For me, the useful questions are much simpler: * which **best poker sites in Canada** still feel worth using after the first deposit * which ones handle cashouts and verification normally * which ones have enough traffic that the games feel alive * which ones feel good on mobile, not just desktop * which ones are actually strong for real-money poker, not just casino-first brands with everything mixed together # That is the gap I keep noticing A lot of pages about **real money poker sites Canada** jump straight to welcome offers and flashy promotions, but I care more about the boring details. What does the tournament schedule feel like? Are the cash tables active enough? Is the app actually solid? If I am in Ontario, does the ring-fenced setup still have enough player traffic to stay interesting? If I am outside Ontario, am I basically looking at provincial options rather than a bigger private market? Right now, it seems like the most serious poker discussion in Canada still centres on names like PokerStars Ontario, GGPoker or WSOP.ca, partypoker, BetMGM Poker, and 888poker in Ontario, with provincial options being a different category entirely. PokerStars officially launched its Ontario product in the regulated market, GGPoker.ca says it launched exclusively in Ontario in 2022, and partypoker continues to advertise cash games, spins, and tournaments for Canada with Ontario-specific restrictions in place. # So here is really what I want from the community here If you play online poker in Canada for real money, what actually held up for you? Which platforms had decent traffic and normal payouts? Which ones felt strongest on mobile? Which ones stayed worth opening after the promo wore off? And if you are outside Ontario, did you stick with provincial options or find that the real poker conversation is basically Ontario-led now? I would rather hear the boring details than another polished list. For me, that is the only real way to judge the **best poker sites in Canada**.

Hi Team, I tried to withdraw funds but I got the following error: Withdraw is not available, Unfortunately it seems there is no available payment method for your withdraw, please contact support for more information. After that I'm getting issues to contact 888poker support. After log in 888poker windows app, I click in "?" at top right and it's shows me a black window, when I click in my profile > Help Centre, shows me again the black window again. I'm in a dead end here, please help. Thank you.

Im trying to withdraw funds, because of the amount it's only giving me option for wire transfer, needed help supporting documents, everytime I send a support form, it DOES NOT allow me to attach any documents, just pops up with an error saying ive selected to many documents, it does this regardless of whether its just 1 or 10, makes no difference. Ive recently changed banks in the last week, so I dont even have a bank statement to provide for my new account, my user name for 888poker is Mckygrhm08 and my ID is 804518793

I want to share my experience with 888poker and how they handled my account. After making a few small transfers to friends (literally just a few dollars), 888poker blocked my account. I contacted their support multiple times through chat and sent all the documents they requested — at least 10 times. Every single time, I was passed from one operator to another in circles. Each of them said they couldn’t help and that my case would be forwarded to the “relevant department” where I would *definitely* get assistance. I provided EVERYTHING they asked for — bank statements, proof of income, tax records, my ID, passport, utility bills, selfies, selfies with my passport, photos of my card linked to the account… at this point, it feels like they would ask for literally anything just to delay the process. After about a month, I finally received an email from 888poker saying it still wasn’t enough. Then they fully blocked my account — now I can’t even log in anymore. I submitted all the documents again. Today marks exactly 2 months of waiting for a response from 888poker. How is this acceptable treatment of customers? And one more question — why even allow transfers between players if you ban people for using this feature?

I want to share how I got scammed by 888 poker room. After making a few small transfers to friends (literally just a few dollars), my account got blocked. First, I tried contacting support through chat — I sent all the documents they asked for at least 10 times. Every single time, they just kept passing me from one operator to another in circles. Each one said they couldn’t help me and that they would forward my case to the “relevant department” where I would *definitely* get help. I sent them EVERYTHING — bank statements, proof of income, tax records, my ID, passport, utility bills, selfies, selfies with my passport, photos of my card linked to the account… hell, I might as well have sent them a stool sample at this point. After about a month, I finally got an email saying it still wasn’t enough. Then they fully blocked my account — now I can’t even log in anymore. I sent all the documents again. Today marks exactly 2 months of waiting for a response. How is this acceptable treatment of customers??? Amazing poker room, keep it up.

Dear 888poker Support, To whoever this message may concern I would like to kindly request that my accounts currency is changed from USD to GBP as I am based within the UK and accidentally set it to USD. Otherwise I would have to withdraw all funds and open a new account which I’m sure you understand is a big hassle. Please can you let me know if this is possible as it would be much appreciated as I havnt found anyone else to contact for support. Thank you in advance

Even a couple of weeks ago I would have whinged about this being a 'bad beat', but I'm trying to always look at what I could have done differently. It was a fairly crucial spot in a very low stakes tournament (but these are the kind I'm playing to practice without losing my shirt, and final table spots are still generally a meaningful amount of money for me). We were close-ish to the bubble and I was aware, the moment I got kings, that it was likely a make-or-break hand for the game. I tried to size my bets appropriately post-flop, and would have been happy with a fold on the flop or (especially) the turn. Instead villain called both barrels without (as far as I can tell) equity in either spot - though he may reasonably have thought the queens were live, which changes the math at least a bit. The turn-shove was honestly an attempt to shut the pot down rather than get paid off even more, and 75% of the time I'm thrilled to be called. But it was a crucial spot that made the difference between me being in a comfortable position going into the final few tables, and being extremely precarious. In the end I cleared the bubble but didn't get meaningfully further than that, this beat having taken the wind out of my sails a fair bit. Is there anything I should have done to play it differently? Overbet the flop perhaps, to ensure villain folds? Or bet smaller on the flop, to give myself more sizing options on later streets? I'm curious what others would do if not purely thinking about chip EV but maintaining position. Thanks!

If you're a UK player depositing serious money and you've noticed things getting tighter — longer withdrawal queues, source of funds requests out of nowhere, stake restrictions on sports, deposit limits that seem to appear from thin air — you're not imagining it. The UKGC framework in 2026 is built to slow you down. Affordability checks, mandatory cooling-off nudges, withdrawal caps that drip-feed your own money back to you. None of it is designed with the serious player in mind. * The players who figured this out first moved offshore. Here's exactly what they found. **Three UK-Friendly Offshore Casinos Running Real VIP Programmes Right Now** **Velobet, Cosmobet and Rolletto** — all offshore, all fully accessible to UK players with or without Gamstop registration, all running dedicated VIP programmes that are a completely different world to what UKGC sites offer. The entry point is a VIP code entered at the point of registration. One checkbox. One code. Miss it and you're on a standard account. When you sign up at any of the three below — **find the "I have a promo code" box, tick it, and enter your code before you finish creating your account.** The code cannot be retroactively applied. |Casino|VIP Code to Enter| |:-|:-| |Velobet|`VELOVIP`| |Cosmobet|`COSMOVIP`| |Rolletto|`ROLLVIP`| **How You Qualify After Registering** The code flags your account. Qualification comes next — two ways to do it: **Via deposit** Make a meaningful opening deposit. The VIP team monitors code-registered accounts and tiers you based on your first deposit. Go in at a level that reflects how you actually play. **Via your existing player history** This is the one most people miss. If you're already operating at high stakes at other casinos — Betway, 888, PokerStars, wherever — contact the VIP team after registering and show them. Deposit history screenshots, current VIP tier, activity level. They match your existing status and you skip the lower tiers entirely. Already a VIP somewhere else? Don't start from scratch. Show your portfolio and fast-track straight to the level you've already earned. **What the VIP Account Actually Delivers** Here's what changes when the VIP status activates on your account: **Weekly Loss Rebate — Up to 10% Back** Every week your net losses are calculated and up to 10% comes back to your account as real cash. Withdrawable. No wagering. No strings. At meaningful stakes this is a significant weekly number that lands automatically — your manager doesn't need chasing for it. **A Manager Who Picks Up** One person. Direct line. Email, WhatsApp or Telegram — whichever you prefer. They know your account, your preferences, your usual games and markets. They handle everything personally: * Withdrawal processing — pushed to the front * Bonus arrangements — built around what you actually play * Table limit increases — done on request * Dispute resolution — handled directly, not via a ticket queue * Bespoke deal negotiation — cashback rates, reload terms, personalised offers This is the difference that matters most. One person who knows you vs a generic support queue that doesn't. Contact options: * WhatsApp / Telegram direct — quickest * Dedicated VIP email * Priority live chat lane * Phone available at senior tiers **Withdrawals on Your Schedule** VIP queue is separate. Crypto processes instantly. Fiat goes same business day. No weekly withdrawal ceiling. No "funds available in 3-5 working days." When you request a withdrawal your manager gets it processed — full stop. **Table Limits That Reflect Real Play** Standard limits are lifted for VIP accounts: * High roller blackjack — up to 10x the standard maximum bet * Private roulette rooms — VIP tables away from the public lobby * High stakes baccarat — separate rooms for serious play * Premium slot maximums — increased bet ceilings on top titles * Private live casino suites — Evolution Gaming rooms, VIP access only **Free Spins That Are Actually Worth Having** Not a random low-value monthly send. VIP free spins are triggered by: * Your birthday — personalised package, decent value * Major UK sporting events — Grand National, Cheltenham, Champions League Final, Wimbledon * New game launches — early VIP-only access before public release * Random drops — more frequent than you'd expect at VIP level * Seasonal events — Christmas, New Year, bank holiday specials * Account milestones — loyalty anniversaries acknowledged properly **Bonuses Built Around Your Account** Your manager reviews your actual playing history and builds offers accordingly: * Reload bonuses matched to your typical deposit size — not a generic £25 * Free bets on the sports and markets you actually use * Slot bonuses on the specific titles in your history * Cashback rates negotiated directly — not applied blanket **Private VIP Tournaments** Separate leaderboards and competitions for VIP players. Weekly and monthly formats. Serious cash prize pools. You're competing against players at your level — not the recreational crowd. Buy-ins and structures calibrated for high roller play. **No Deposit Limits. No Affordability Checks.** UKGC operators are legally required to run affordability checks and cap deposits when certain thresholds are hit. These accounts don't have that framework. You deposit what you decide, when you decide. Any account parameters are a conversation with your manager — not an automated system deciding your limits for you. **Real World Perks at Senior Levels** Get to the senior tiers and the rewards go beyond your account: * Premier League and European football hospitality * Cheltenham Festival, Royal Ascot, Grand National VIP access * Major boxing and UFC ringside and hospitality packages * Wimbledon and tennis event hospitality * Funded travel experiences for top tier players * Luxury gifts and merchandise * Private invitation-only VIP events Arranged personally through your account manager — not a generic reward catalogue. **Privacy That Matches the Level** Crypto players get streamlined KYC. Your account data is handled with the discretion you'd expect at serious play levels. Minimal friction. Maximum confidentiality. **Which One Is Right for You?** **Velobet →** `VELOVIP` Premier League. Cheltenham. The Ashes. Six Nations. If sports betting at elevated limits matters alongside your casino play — Velobet has the strongest sportsbook of any non Gamstop operator currently running. VIP accounts get higher bet acceptance, personalised ante-post markets and a dedicated sportsbook handler. **Cosmobet →** `COSMOVIP` Bitcoin out instantly. USDT same speed. Minimal KYC. If you're crypto-first and large withdrawals moving fast without paperwork is the priority — Cosmobet is built exactly for this. Strongest crash game selection of the three. Privacy-first from the ground up. **Rolletto →** `ROLLVIP` Deepest VIP tier structure. Private Evolution Gaming high roller tables. The most developed real-world rewards programme of the three. If you want the best high roller blackjack and roulette experience and a loyalty programme with genuine progression and depth — Rolletto is where the serious casino players land. Full Benefits at a Glance |Benefit|What You Get| |:-|:-| |Loss Rebate|Up to 10% weekly — real cash, no wagering| |Account Manager|Named, 24/7, direct WhatsApp/Telegram| |Withdrawal Speed|Instant crypto / same day fiat| |Withdrawal Limits|Significantly higher than standard| |Deposit Limits|None — no affordability checks| |Table Limits|Up to 10x standard — private VIP rooms| |Free Spins|Events, birthdays, launches, surprise drops| |Bonuses|Personalised — built on your actual history| |Tournaments|VIP-only leaderboards — serious prize pools| |Senior Perks|Hospitality, travel, luxury gifts| |Privacy|Minimal KYC — enhanced discretion| **Quick FAQ for Brits** **Is this legal for UK players?** Yes. No UK law restricts players from using offshore casinos. The UKGC rules apply to operators — not to individual players accessing foreign-licensed sites. **Can I use this if I'm on Gamstop?** Yes. All three are completely outside the Gamstop network. UK players registered with Gamstop can access these casinos freely. **Do they accept GBP?** Most transactions can be made in GBP or EUR. Crypto is also fully supported and gives you the fastest withdrawal experience. **What if I already have VIP status elsewhere?** Contact the VIP team after registering with your existing portfolio. Senior players at other operators are fast-tracked — you don't rebuild from the bottom. **One code per casino or can I use all three?** One code per registration per casino. You can register at all three using the respective code for each — `VELOVIP` at Velobet, `COSMOVIP` at Cosmobet, `ROLLVIP` at Rolletto — and run VIP accounts at all three simultaneously. The Short Version **The UKGC system isn't getting more player-friendly. The offshore VIP market is where UK high rollers have been quietly moving their action — and the three casinos above are running the best programmes available to British players right now.** One checkbox. One code. That's all that separates a standard account from a VIP one. **Tick "I have a promo code" → Enter code → Register → Qualify → VIP activates** * 🥇 Sports + Casino → **Velobet** → `VELOVIP` * 🥈 Crypto + Speed → **Cosmobet** → `COSMOVIP` * 🥉 Casino + Depth → **Rolletto** → `ROLLVIP`

Has anyone successfully reopened an old 888 account after a long Gamstop break? My 888 account was closed years ago. After completing a 5-year Gamstop exclusion, I’ve been trying to reopen it since Feb 2024. The main issue is I seem stuck in an endless support loop that I can’t escape. • I can’t log in because the account is closed • Most support instructions require you to log in • When I eventually find a way to contact them, I’m told I must wait 24 hours due to a “cooling off period” • After waiting and contacting again, I’m sometimes told they can’t find my account • If I try to create a new account, it says I already have one and must contact support • At one point I was told Safer Gambling would call me — but no one ever did So the process becomes: Contact support → wait 24 hours → contact again → no progress → repeat. Having to restart this 24-hour wait every single time is extremely frustrating and makes it feel almost impossible to get the issue resolved. Other sites (PokerStars, Party, iPoker skins etc.) handled reopening much more directly, usually with a single phone call and verification. Is there a direct phone number, escalation route, or specific method that actually works with 888? Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has managed to get this sorted.

888poker has their own house accounts multi accounting or they just don't care. I posted this on 888pokerofficial subreddit and poker subreddit and nobody cares. Is everyone just too addicted to online poker that they don't want to know the truth that it's rigged and would rather have ignorance since ignorance is bliss or is this subreddit just filled with employees itching to troll posts to try and cause confusion for any fish that sees the evidence?

I've reported him once before here - [https://www.reddit.com/r/888pokerofficial/comments/1rduhuu/pko\_55\_cheater\_brigaboyy/](https://www.reddit.com/r/888pokerofficial/comments/1rduhuu/pko_55_cheater_brigaboyy/) Brigaboyy once again gets "lucky" after 3-betting 54 of spades from the small blind against a lojack open and his opponent flops top pair with KQ. Brigaboyy rivers a straight flush to knock out his opponent. Earlier on the table he also flopped a straight to try win a bounty and also made trips to take another bounty. I believe he can see the flop, turn, and river before they are dealt. \#Game No : 826352896 \*\*\*\*\* 888poker Hand History for Game 826352896 \*\*\*\*\* 275/550 Blinds No Limit Holdem - \*\*\* Tournament #288153233 Free 10 Max (Real Money) Seat 6 is the button Total number of players : 8 Seat 1: JOURNEY\_TN1 ( 7,776 ) Seat 2: Hero ( 26,572 ) Seat 3: TheOneLegged ( 33,020 ) Seat 5: Blindfish87 ( 26,620 ) Seat 6: jpberlin81 ( 20,371 ) Seat 7: Brigaboyy ( 57,851 ) Seat 8: slmzrj ( 31,930 ) Seat 10: bounty8 ( 21,145 ) Hero posts ante \[80\] Blindfish87 posts ante \[80\] jpberlin81 posts ante \[80\] Brigaboyy posts ante \[80\] slmzrj posts ante \[80\] JOURNEY\_TN1 posts ante \[80\] TheOneLegged posts ante \[80\] bounty8 posts ante \[80\] Brigaboyy posts small blind \[275\] slmzrj posts big blind \[550\] \*\* Dealing down cards \*\* Dealt to Hero \[ Kh, Qc \] bounty8 folds JOURNEY\_TN1 folds Hero raises \[1,210\] TheOneLegged folds Blindfish87 folds jpberlin81 folds Brigaboyy raises \[3,960\] slmzrj folds Hero calls \[3,025\] \*\* First runout \*\* \*\* Dealing flop \*\* \[ 2d, 6s, Qd \] Brigaboyy bets \[2,415\] Hero calls \[2,415\] \*\* Dealing turn \*\* \[ 3s \] Brigaboyy bets \[5,796\] Hero calls \[5,796\] \*\* Dealing river \*\* \[ 2s \] Brigaboyy bets \[17,214\] Hero calls \[14,046\] \*\* Summary \*\* Brigaboyy shows \[ 5s, 4s \] Hero shows \[ Kh, Qc \] First runout Brigaboyy collected \[ 54,174 \]

Here’s what to expect from the 2026 KO Games edition. # $500K Knockout Games up Close The five day online tournament comes with a packed schedule, but the undisputed highlight remains the **$200,000 GTD Mystery Bounty Main Event**. It comes with a $160 buy-in and a mystery bounty of up to $20,000. The first flights for the Main Event already started yesterday, March 16 and will be running until March 23rd, when Day 2 officially begins. The live streamed final table will take place the following day, on the 24th. For what it’s worth, 888poker isn’t blind to the fact that the $160 buy-in is on the steep end. That’s why they’ve created a **$50K GTD Mystery Mini Main Event** with a $25 buy-in to run alongside it. Apart from these two, there are a twenty-six more events on the Knockout Games schedule. Here are a few highlights: |**Date**|**Time (GMT)**|**Tournament**|**Buy-in**| |:-|:-|:-|:-| |21/3|17:00|KO Games #07 – $2K GTD|$16.50| |22/3|18:00|KO Games #15 – $8K GTD|$8.80| |24/3|18:00|KO Games #26 – $15K GTD|$320| # How to Get In the Knockout Games Apart from paying the buy-in up front, there are two more ways of securing a Knockout Games ticket for free: * Play daily freerolls for a chance at the Mystery Bounty Main Event. * Qualify via satellites to the Main Event. # The Complete $500K Knockout Games Schedule |**Date**|**Time**|**Tournament**|**Buy-in**|**GTD**| |:-|:-|:-|:-|:-| |20/3|16:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty FRENZY|$11|$10,000| |20/3|17:00|Daily Gems – MB Big or Small|$22|$10,000| |20/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty|$55|$12,000| |20/3|18:00|Mystery Bounty FRENZY mini|$5.50|$5,000| |20/3|19:00|Daily Gems – Super KO|$109|$10,000| |21/3|16:00|Daily Gems – MB Big or Small|$11|$10,000| |21/3|17:00|PLO5 Mystery Bounty Special|$16.50|$2,000| |21/3|18:00|Daily Gems – PKO 6-Max|$55|$10,000| |21/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty 6-Max|$22|$12,000| |21/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty FRENZY|$8.80|$6,000| |21/3|19:00|Daily Gems – PKO 6-Max High|$109|$10,000| |22/3|15:00|Mystery Bounty FRENZY|$33|$12,000| |22/3|16:00|Mystery Bounty mini|$16.50|$20,000| |22/3|18:00|Mystery Bounty|$55|$27,000| |22/3|18:00|Mystery Bounty micro|$8.80|$8,000| |22/3|19:00|The PKO Rumble|$109|$10,000| |22/3|19:00|Mystery Bounty FRENZY mini|$22|$15,000| |22/3|19:00|Super High Roller PKO|$1,050|$35,000| |23/3|16:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty FRENZY mini|$11|$10,000| |23/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty|$55|$10,000| |23/3|18:00|High Roller PKO|$215|$8,000| |23/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Mystery Bounty FRENZY|$22|$10,000| |23/3|21:30|The Mystery Mini Main (Day 2) \*|$25|$50,000| |23/3|21:30|Mystery Bounty Main Event (Day 2) \*\*|$160|$200,000| |24/3|16:00|Daily Gems – Closing Event MB Mini|$16.50|$12,000| |24/3|18:00|High Roller PKO|$320|$15,000| |24/3|18:00|Daily Gems – Closing Event Mystery Bounty|$55|$12,000| |24/3|19:00|Daily Gems – Super KO|$109|$10,000| |24/3|18:00|Mystery Bounty Main Event (Final Table)|–| | **Source**: [https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/knockout-games-return-to-888poker-with-500k-gtd-this-march](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/knockout-games-return-to-888poker-with-500k-gtd-this-march) by [**Iva Dozet**](https://www.pokerlistings.com/author/iva_dozets_pl)

Hola a todos, necesito consejo o ayuda urgente. Ayer domingo mi cuenta de 888poker fue restringida por una verificación rutinaria (KYC). Envié el DNI y la tarjeta inmediatamente, pero sigo sin respuesta. El problema es que **hoy lunes juego el Día 2 del Micro Rollers ME** y estoy en una posición muy buena (puesto 25 de 54). Además, por intentar entrar para ver si ya estaba activa, se me ha bloqueado el acceso técnico por 24h (demasiados intentos). ¿Alguien sabe de alguna vía de contacto más rápida que el email un lunes por la mañana? Me daría mucha rabia perder el torneo por un trámite administrativo habiendo enviado todo a tiempo. ¡Gracias de antemano! u/888pokerSupport_GM

I’m looking for online poker sites that offer good freeroll tournaments (no deposit if possible). Which sites currently have the best freerolls in terms of: Frequency (daily / weekly) Prize pools Easy registration I’ve heard about sites like CoinPoker, 888poker, PokerStars, and ACR, but I’m not sure which ones actually have the best freerolls right now. If you grind freerolls, which sites do you recommend and why?

Together with StatName, we continue to cover the results of the best cash game players across different stakes and rooms over the past month. We try to highlight interesting patterns and standout performances at every limit, from NL10 all the way up to the overall rankings. https://preview.redd.it/sehzy53r0ang1.jpg?width=1461&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1cca8a793358958c24e2503732a64666edfd6889 But first, as always, a few important notes: * StatName tracks net profit at cash tables. Rakeback, leaderboard rewards, and promotional bonuses are not included in the statistics. * StatName only tracks results at regular cash tables (fast-fold tables are excluded). * StatName data may differ slightly from your HUD due to import inaccuracies, but the sample sizes remain representative and provide a reliable picture of player performance. # NL/PL10: McCormack.I Topped the Rankings With $976 McCormack.I plays NL10 and NL25 and topped the NL10 best players leaderboard for the first time. 888poker grinder NasikStar made the top 3 — [one of the best players of 2025](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/top-online-cash-game-players-of-2025-profits-winrates-and-volume). Pay attention to his volume: 50K hands — more than the other players. # NL/PL25: Proof That PLO Is Booming Planning to switch from NLHE to PLO? Not sure when or what limit to start at? We recommend trying $0.10/0.25 on PokerStars. Six PL25 players on PokerStars made it into the top-15 at this limit. LoStCaRLoS earned the most: $3.2K. Incidentally, he also led NL/PL25 in [January](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/top-cash-game-players-january-2026) with a profit of $2.5K. It’s strange: February had fewer days, but he won more. ***By the way, you can track an unlimited number of players for free on StatName up to NLH/PLO25.*** # NL/PL50: iPoker Regulars Are on Top If you play at the $0.25/$0.50, consider the iPoker network rooms (RedStars Poker and Champion Poker). The biggest winner at this limit was nobodyman13 (iPoker), with over $4,700. Three other iPoker network players also made it into the top 10. Register at iPoker with the [**PokerListings VIP Club**](https://vip.pokerlistings.com/) and receive 35% rakeback + 19% extra rakeback + plus many other benefits. # NL/PL100: AlexEliseev7 Is Back on Top AlexEliseev7 earned over $36K at the limit in 2025. With the second month of 2026 behind him, AlexEliseev7 once again posted an outstanding result, winning $7.4K. As a reminder, in January 2025, he was fifth with a profit of $5K. Also note that three more players from the iPoker network once again featured in the rankings. # NL200: MangilikAbsolutely Crushing It Mangilik topped the rankings with a profit of $18K. These are absolutely insane numbers. To put this into perspective, Mangilik ranked 12th among the best NL/PL500 players for all of 2025, with a profit of $23K. In February (the shortest month), Mangilik won 80% of his annual profit. What a legend! # NL/PL500: pkr_falk Is Moving Down to Make a Decent Profit 888poker PLO regular pkr\_falk has already been on our leaderboard. In 2025, he took 2nd place in the best players ranking with $72K in winnings. However, that was at the NL/PL1K stakes. In February, pkr\_falk decided to grind on a limit lower — and it worked: $15K in profit. # Results at NL/PL1K up to NL/PL5K |**Limit**|**Player (Room)**|**Profit**|**Hands**|**Win Rate (bb/100)**| |:-|:-|:-|:-|:-| |NL/PL1K|tranche2p1 (WNX)|$20K|3K (PL)|68.8| |NL/PL2K|Varys (iPoker)|$26K|1.1K (NL)|101.2| |NL/PL5K|B1gD1ckPlaya (WPN)|$33K|1.6K (PL)|41.2| # Overall: borntotilt Wins $88K+  Different players use the nickname Borntotilt in different rooms. On WPN — Linus Loeliger, on PokerStars — Stanislau Melhui. # About StatName StatName collects over 20 different stats on cash game players from GGPoker, WPN, PokerStars, iPoker, Chico, 888poker, PokerROS, Winamax, iPoker (IT).

Hello, I have filed an complaint to Malta Gaming Authority about 888poker and their way to treat players. To keep it short my experience is that they dont 100% percent deliver promos they advertise. Player must put own effort and time to make sure everything is in place. Have not seeing this in any other poker room. I have couple of examples just to mention e.g., GET30 promo. I needed to contact 888poker several times to get all tickets promised in the promo. Every time the reply was that the 5 dollar Blast ticket will be automatically granted to your account - that did not happened once. Also several other tickets has been missing. I also feel extremely worrying that the support they provide via the poker app is useless. Agents have poor knowledge about poker related matters and are not able to help. I have managed to get help via Reddit what is strange. Is this official cs channel and safe channel to share delicate information partially covered by GDPR? I urge you to [https://www.mga.org.mt/player-hub/lodge-a-complaint/](https://www.mga.org.mt/player-hub/lodge-a-complaint/) file an complaint if you face similar problems. When reviewing postings here it seems to very common at their end. You can also dm me to share your experience. Please be aware of your rights.

I'm missing rakeback, raised this on Thursday matter still open. Answer from 888poker is "we do not have a confirmed timeline for resolution". During my time with them I have been missing many promos/bonuses and have received them only after contacting support. Actually support via this channel, chat in the poker app has been pretty much useless. I have went throw postings here and seemd to be that they have major issues in this area. Have anyone made complaint to the gaming authority or contacted legal support (take commission from the settlement) available for players? Please share you experience.

To start of the month, the online poker room has announced the return of its **RakeLESS Sundays**. You’ll find everything there is to know about them in this article. # Four Weeks of RakeLESS Sundays in March For four Sundays in March, 888poker has stripped away the entry fees for their Sunday $100,000 RakeLESS Mystery Main Event, meaning all the buy-ins go towards the prize pool in full this month. These are four Sundays you need to circle in your calendar: * March 1st * March 8th * March 15th * March 29th *March 22nd is the designated breather before the final week begins.* While you’re patiently waiting for the next Sunday to roll around next month, don’t forget that the **Poker Express** is still running at full speed on 888poker.

Both players were overjoyed to join the brand that promised such grand plans for the Irish poker scene. For the most part, everything was fine between them until January 2026, when [WPT Global recruited Ren “Tony” Lin](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/wpt-global-signs-tony-ren-lin-as-an-ambassador) as an ambassador. It’s safe to say the duo was shocked by this decision mostly because of Lin’s recent cheating controversy on GGPoker, where he was caught breaking the rules while simultaneously serving as an ambassador for the brand. Following his hiring, Lappin and O’Kearney decided to terminate their relationship with WPT Global and [issued the statement on X (Twitter)](https://x.com/dklappin/status/2011027023724974316?s=20) on January 13th, 2026: The future for both them and their podcast was uncertain until February 24th, 2026 when the duo shared exciting news about their new partnerships. # Dara O’Kearney Becomes a Paddy Power Poker Ambassador Dara O’Kearney Dara was [first to break news](https://x.com/daraokearney/status/2026370896135426526?s=20). On February 24th, 2026 he posted an announcement about joining q major Irish poker brands Paddy Power Poker Poker as its newest ambassador: >Those of you who signed up to Chip Race on Patreon will know this already, but yesterday I signed with Paddy Power Poker to represent them as an ambassador. It’s an immense honour to represent such a great Irish success story, the small Irish bookie that grew into one of the biggest gambling companies in the world, with a fun irreverent approach. During my talks with them, they revealed some very exciting plans they have for this year which I can’t disclose yet but watch this space! Paddy Power [publicly welcomed](https://x.com/paddypowerpoker/status/2026375473677168871?s=20) O’Kearney as their newest team member, clarifying the new role of “true pro, respected voice in the game, and Irish Poker Legend”: Poker Brand Ambassador. # David Lappin Becomes a PokerStars Team Pro Lappin’s announcement on February 25th, 2026 attracted a little more attention because of the way Lappin landed his new partnership with [PokerStars](https://www.pokerlistings.com/poker-sites/poker-stars). Lappin literally won his patch and contract by participating in the 2025 PokerStars Live League, a year-long contest where the top 10 finishers from three leaderboards had an opportunity to send “a substantial interview-style application, alongside a video component, detailing their appropriateness for the role, and what they could bring to the PokerStars brand”. Lappin finished in 10th place on the Low leaderboard and was apparently impressive enough at the audition that he ended up getting a €100,000 year ambassadorship. The poker pro starts his new chapter excited to see what he can do right for the poker community, especially in Ireland: >My biggest hope is that I can be a voice for those players within the team to champion their need for good poker. And by good poker, I mean safe poker. This is obviously very close to my heart at the moment, but this is a site that takes game integrity and player security issues really seriously. And it’s a company that doesn’t cut corners, a company that plays by the rules, which doesn’t look for workarounds with regard to all the regulatory frameworks. Integrity stuff is just really important to me personally. To work for a company where I know none of that will be an issue, that’s huge. The PokerStars team is excited as well, seeing David as a respected voice in the poker community. As Cédric Billot, Associate Director of Live Events Operations at PokerStars, says: *“David has been a constant presence on the live circuit for many years. He understands what makes PokerStars events special because he has experienced them first-hand across multiple stops, and he brings a perspective that truly reflects the player community.* *He combines deep roots in the live poker scene with a respected voice that players listen to and that balance of experience, authenticity, and his alignment with our values makes him a natural fit for representing PokerStars. We’re delighted to welcome him to the team.”* # But What About The Chip Race Podcast On February 24th, 2026m Lappin and O’Kearney informed the poker community about [Lappin’s departure from the podcast](https://x.com/daraokearney/status/2026096729901183007?s=20) after 11 years of co-hosting. The news made waves, especially when Dara O’Kearney ran a poll, asking players who should replace David Lappin on The Chip Race — and Matt Berkey won by a small margin against Pokerbunny. Other players rushed to offer their talents as co-hosts shortly after, including 888poker ambassador [Aaron Barone](https://x.com/abarone68/status/2026378591190266108?s=20), who cited having a similar fashion sense to Dara’s as a valid reason for getting the gig. In the end the duo [confessed that this separation was just a joke](https://x.com/daraokearney/status/2026689879694860683?s=20) but didn’t clarify any plans for the future of the podcast. So, for now, we’re just looking forward to see what they’ll cook up for us. **Source**: [https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/david-lappin-and-dara-okearney-found-a-new-home](https://www.pokerlistings.com/news/david-lappin-and-dara-okearney-found-a-new-home) by [**Vasilisa Zyryanova**](https://www.pokerlistings.com/author/vasilisa)

Hello. On February 5th, I received an email saying my account was permanently closed. There was no reason given, and no one responded to my messages. I have approximately $1,200 left in my account. I can understand the room's reluctance to see a winning player, but appropriating someone else's money is beyond me. I have never violated the room's terms and conditions. Please provide some kind of response regarding this situation. Thank you. My nickname in the room is DineroPFvor email [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

I've been playing PKOs recently and there's a user named "Brigaboyy" from Brazil who definately seems to be cheating. Somehow he is managing to be seated to the direct left of specific players with other Brazilian players. He makes questionable decisions but always seems to be make the best hand despite the other player's holdings.

Tô há uma semana tentando contato com a plataforma. Os cara simplesmente desativaram o chat, não possuem um email de suporte. Me deram uma resposta genérica por aqui. Fiz um depósito dia 13 (uma semana atrás, exatamente). O dinheiro saiu da minha conta bancária. Foi confirmado pelo intermediário Okto Tech que o dinheiro foi enviado para 888Poker, mas no app da plataforma o pagamento aparece como recusado. Já entrei em contato com meu banco, com a plataforma Okto e todos me relataram a mesma coisa: o dinheiro FOI ENTREGUE A 888POKER. No entando, não há crédito na 888, nem meu dinheiro foi devolvido. Já acionei a **ABSCM – Associação Brasileira das Sociedades de Crédito e Microcrédito, e obtive a mesma resposta: o dinheiro foi entregue à 888 Poker.** Enfim, a impressão que dá, nessa enorme dificuldade em conseguir comunicação com o suporte deles, o SLA gigantesco nas respostas (sempre vagas e padronizadas), demonstra - ao menos para mim, uma desconfiança sobre a integridade da plataforma. **Resumo**: meu dinheiro desaparaceu (não está na 888, nem de volta à minha conta bancária); o suporte da 888 praticamente inexiste: o chat do app foi bloqueado, não existe sequer UM email de suporte ([email protected] foi desativado, segundo a "pessoa" que responde por aqui). Queria saber dos colegas aqui, se passaram por experiência parecida - e o que fizeram, além de já trabalhar com a possibilidade de ter sofrido um golpe? Caso o "bot" da 888 Poker tenha interesse em me responder: 1) Meu username é: BroccoliRobR 2) Pelo meu username você já terá acesso ao meu email 3) Seria prudente e cordial com todos aqui do Reddit que buscam suporte, colocar o novo email de vocês, uma vez que segundo vocês, o [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) foi desativado 4) Por favor, só devolvam meu dinheiro. Não to pedindo nada além do meu direito.

I have had enough with the running around! It’s been a week and my withdrawal request still says “awaiting process” DO NOT PLAY HERE I have uploaded everything they have asked for and still says the same. This isn’t a small amount of money($46500). I just want some answers rather than it will be “as soon as possible” In conclusion they are happy to take your money but when it comes to paying out they ghost you!

Hi all! I am a CS university student who is currently working on a little Machine Learning side project which I might base my thesis on next semester. I have always really enjoyed Poker, but sadly I am not a good online player and since I don’t have any money to throw away, I just play very rarely on micro stakes tournaments. For my project I need hand histories, which I just simply can’t create on my own right now. I would really appreciate if there are some people out there who would be willing to share their hand histories for me for the following site’s primarily: \-PokerStars \-Party Poker \-888 Poker \-ACR \-Coinpoker \-BetOnline \-Winamax Any help would be appreciated! Just reach out to me via DM :)
