I have noticed a few things.
The freezeouts are quite easy even for a player of my ability.
There are a large amount of aggressive playing Spaniards who appear to raise on the first round of betting but fold a lot if they are re-raised.
If you play the MTT in the morning there are a lot of Australians who think that every bluff they try that gets called and beaten has to have been done by a "fish" and any bluff that I do that wins makes me a "donk".
The amount of good hands that are well played and make you think it was done correctly are nearly always met with abuse from the losing player. Very rarely do you get a "wp" or "nh" from the loser, only normally from the chip leader or the one near to the bottom of the prize money.
I love the "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz" when I am playing my hand.
Finally, playing the APAT tourneys and League games is certainly a lot harder than playing against regular 888 players.

lol - nice observations.
The last bit is so definitely true - the general standard is incredibly low. I love it.

I type "nh wp" when I lose to an absolute suckout
[X] happens a lot
- the sarcasm is rarely picked up by the aussies
I also type wp when it"s truly appropriate.
[ ] happens a lot

Played an MTT for three and a half hours and I"m 2nd CL on the cash bubble, then all of a sudden - disconnected..! By the time I got back in, the tourney had finished and the only guy who hadn"t been disconnected had robbed the lot. The air was blue. ;)
I"ve never had much of a problem with 888 and I"ve grown to like the software, but it won"t take many more situations like this one to put me off.

OK first time i have seen a problem but since both me and deb had a prob tonight then this 888 site is truly not to be trusted
Firstly Deb got busted on the LAST hand of the APAT Glasgow qual rebuy period.
It asked her if she wanted to rebuy...yes
then she hit the add on button
but only ended up with 3000 chips. rebuy was 1500, add on 3000
so she should have had 4500 chips, not 3000
text file in HH confirms she asked for a rebuy + addon.
not the first time we"ve heard last hand rebuy/addon problems i dont think?
Secondly I finished 7th for $4.80, but didn"t get paid. The money is not the point, but the principle is. There"s around $30 of buyins that should have been paid out to the final table. It"s robbery not to pay it out. The online cashier confirmed nothing was paid to me but cannot do anything about it - it has to be reviewed by a supervisor.
With all the weight of other evidence this 888 crowd really need to sort their software out.

Also if IIRC it wouldn"t allow Ger to add on and allowed him to get it all in behind on at least 14 occassions
Come on 888 sort it out :-\

yep I hit the rebuy button while I had above the number of chips, then hit the addon and it failed both.
as for being behind on 14 occassions thats not quite right close but not quite accurate...............
