It is not uncommon for an online poker operator to decide to upgrade its mobile app or online gaming platform. For 888poker, a recent mobile app upgrade has led to $1 million in prize money on offer through January 10, 2021. The site is offering various ways for players to win cash including gift drops, happy hours, and freerolls.
At the end of October, 888poker officially released the upgraded app and dropped a new marketing campaign called Made To Play. Now that the changes are official, players can join in and hopefully earn a little of the extra cash.
Freeroll Action
One of the main ways that players can earn extra cash is via freerolls. There will be freerolls tournaments offered at 888 around the clock through January. Players must have made a deposit at 888poker and wagered at least $1 to be eligible for the freeroll competitions.
Players participating in the freerolls can earn tickets to BLAST tournaments, cash and bonuses that can be used for sports betting and online casino games. You will need to log in to your 888poker account and watch the lobby for hours of freerolls as well as structure and prize pools. The details will vary depending on the day. In general, around $30,000 is offered up per week in prizes during the freerolls.
888poker is also offering up daily Happy Hours. During these special hours, players can win even more prizes. BLAST tickets are also up for grabs here as well as rakeback deals in SNAP and satellite tournaments.
On Monday and Wednesday, 888poker is offering up BLAST Boost during Happy Hour. Players can take part in BLAST tournaments and earn a BLAST ticket. On Tuesday and Thursday, Happy Hour offers Snap Back where 50% rakeback is offered in Snap fast-fold cash games. On the weekend, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday offer Satellite Specials. Earn 100% rakeback from all satellite competitions.
Gift Drops and Winner Spinner
Additional options at 888poker include gift drops and winner spinner. With gift drops, the online poker room is offering rewards at the gaming tables. Prizes worth up to $1,000 will be offered on average, every five minutes. Random prizes like cash and tournament tickets will be awarded at random.
The special gifts will be provided every few minutes but may take up to 72 hours to be added to an account. Players can earn the prizes during cash games, Snap games, BLAST tournaments and MTTs.
The site is also offering the Winner Spinner option where each day, a random prize can be won by spinning a wheel. Prizes on the wheel range from free play tickets to tournament tickets. The free play options are good for the casino and sportsbook of 888.
A prize is guaranteed with every spin and will be awarded at random. Players can receive up to two spins a day for free by using the new mobile app to access gaming. The offerings are provided by 888poker through mid-January, so there is still plenty of time for players to take part and hopefully earn extra cash at the site.
