This room is not in my top three favorites, but it's probably in the top five. Over the past year, it has improved: the software stopped lagging, and the player traffic has slightly increased.

Good room software and generous promotions on first deposits

888 has good software and, more importantly, stable software. Not all poker rooms can boast that.

A reliable room with a lot of attractive freerolls for beginners. Bankroll can be built from scratch! Large selection of different games, from Hold'em to Omaha, from sit-n-go to cash games, both snap and regular full rings and 6 max. Variety of MTT tournaments from 10s to 500$ (hyper turbo, turbo, slow). Player of any level will find a game to his liking. Attractive. convenient and understandable software that works stably. In general, until you try - you will not know! Good luck at the tables!

Not exactly lame software on the old client, the ability to use HAD, the field is not bad. For beginners a huge number of freerolls.

The best room for MTT beginners due to freerolls. there are more freerolls here than anywhere else. at the lowest buy-ins, the vast majority of players are weak. the software I would rather praise than criticize, but in general, it's for amateurs.

Played on 888poker and was satisfied. The software works stably, without glitches. The choice of games is large, there are even rare types of poker. The competition on the tables is different, you can find both weak and strong players. The only disadvantage is that sometimes it takes a long time to process the withdrawal of funds. But in general, the site is decent.

Room is unique both on promotions and freerolls and on the number of chips. Despite the long keshout, problems with software on Windows 7, yet this room is one of the best as it gives a plus.

Eight - my favorite room! personally for me it is the most pleasant software with a minimum compared to other major room the number of hang-ups. they were the first to introduce the ability to throw tomatoes, eggs and cakes at opponents, which for a long time was an exclusive chip and still gives a lot of fan! for beginners room is extremely friendly, because. at the moment provides the largest no deposit bonus, there is an opportunity 2 times a day to spin the prize wheel with a chance to get a ticket to the tournament for $ 33, every day is a huge number of freerolls with huge guarantees and centrolls for all major regular tournaments. the room team since 2020 has significantly expanded the MTT grid, adding regular tournaments for high rollers. a big plus for beginners is the lack of huge kilopoles, which increases the chances of winning. good luck at the tables!

Response from PacificPoker (888) to a review of 888 poker room.My account at 888 is Kateline. I was blocked without a deposit refund,
for "using software." That is, a bot was playing instead of me. 1. No proof! 2. Do you, if you buy a good car, give it to your friends to drive, or do you drive yourself? This is even the first point, not the second. 3. I am only writing this in response to your representative's letter on the 888 review site. 4. I am convinced that blocking and confiscating funds, other people's funds, not yours, is a direct policy of your poker room. As the software is far behind all other poker rooms. 5. I report as information that I will take a few minutes a day to promote this thought on various pokerroom reviewers.

Rum is not very good - the software is crap, rakeback 5%, no prom, the support is slow and takes a long time to respond. After the block of Russian players fish became much less. Reg has nothing to do here.

888poker is ok for regular play. The software is convenient. Bonuses are not bad, but the main thing is stable action.

Playing in this room is suitable for those who appreciate stability. Tournaments are frequent, the software is convenient, and payments are not delayed. Everything is simple and comfortable.

Mini review from an amateur who is interested in playing MTT in the evening without pretensions to professionalism and who does not want to spend money on a hobby. I play microlimits/freerolls and don't worry about ROI, rakeback and other words for pros.
I would like to divide my opinion, or maybe even better to say impression, into 3 categories: client, game, attitude of the room (interaction between the room and players).
1. client - 4.
I do not really care about the software and the main criterion: works or does not work. I had no questions about the performance. There were disconnects, but few and probably not in the software problems. In general, everything is intuitive and it is not a problem to find something in the client. I would like to mention a large number of different and variable filters, which allow you to display the desired tournament grid without having to look for something else. Now a subjective opinion: after switching to 888 after other rooms I had about a week of wild rejection of the design of tables and gameplay itself, almost to the blood from the eyes. I can not specifically say what is wrong, this is a general impression, somehow everything looked cheesy and not hysterical for me. To be fair having gotten used to it in about a week or two this minus disappeared by itself, but for that I took off 1.
+ intuitive client
+ no crashes and crashes/suspensions
- Poor design of tables (although it is subjective and quickly got used to it).
2. game - 5.
I can not say that a lot of tournaments on microlimits, but for those who do not want to "pay" money and do not play 4+ tables I think this room is suitable. Although I think those who roll a lot will find a couple of tournaments to load. In the evening, the problem that there is nothing to play no. By making a deposit (which does not have to be used) get tickets and additional freerolls, which without it is not so little. Tickets for micro-limit tournaments are given from time to time, and there are also tickets for freerolls with impressive prizes. The tournament grid varies, but usually there is a choice of satellites to tournaments or tournaments with a chance to win a ticket (entry fee is 10% of the ticket price). And during the day the number of participants is 1.5-2 times less than in the evening, so even for me it was not a problem to win a ticket for 3-5 attempts, and this is already a "discount" for participation in the evening tournament more than 50%. And maybe I'm wrong, but the permanent microlimit mistery is offered only by 888. The field is very "calm". I won't say that everyone is playing solitaire, but there is less aggression than in other rooms. "Surviving" the initial ollies in general, the game is quite taytovy. After a few months of playing only on 888 I played a few tournaments on PS, and maybe, of course, just so got, but I was very surprised, I immediately began to "break the face" from what I was used to 888.
+ a lot of freerolls
+ mystery on micros
+ tickets are given out, and also you can win a ticket for cheap
+ not aggressive game
3. attitude of the room - 0.
Many, judging by the reviews believe that the support of the room at the level of the plinth. I disagree, for me there is no support at all. "Questions" began with the verification procedure and their requirements for proof of residence. The procedure was "by poke" and using the advice on the forum gipsy. I still don't know why the documents I sent didn't fit, but I was verified on the 3rd attempt (which is not the worst option judging by the forum). When trying to withdraw money, got just at the moment when my bank stopped accepting transfers from the room and received a letter that they can not make a withdrawal. Took from the card of another bank made a dep and put immediately on the withdrawal. For the most part it is my fault that especially did not deal with this issue, but the status of the application "pending consideration" hung for half a year. And periodically trying to write to different mail I so concrete answer did not get why. Perhaps, if I had been more persistent, the issue would have been solved, but it was still a problem. After leaving the RB all revealed in all colors, which can be read on the forum. The circus with withdrawal of money after leaving is in full swing and there is no information how it will end.

Conclusion: the average score was 3, which corresponds to my opinion in general about this room. For freerolls and "free" game the room is suitable, but in my opinion Pokerdom and Pokerok are more interesting in this respect.

Poker is math and calculus. Here the rake is normal, the software is convenient and the game is stable. The main thing is to be able to calculate the odds.
