I'm pretty sure this is 100% incorrect.

Every bonus party has done before has been based on raked hands where you're dealt cards, not where you contribute to the pot

[/ QUOTE ]

Wrong! Ten cents has to be raked before the hand counts.
One cent has to be taken for each player. That doesn't mean
you have to contribute,it just means that the pot has to
reach enough for a dime to be raked.

If you are playing five handed and the rake only reaches
five cents then that hand counts because one cent was taken
for each player. If six players were in then it would not
count.

Bye the way as usual I got jack and Sh#t on the lotto! [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

froggy this is 100 percent wrong from what I have seen.

However, can someone else who has received the bonus please check their raked hands credited on the bonus page to verify?

If you don't belileve me, go ask anyone who has received this bonus and ask them to check their bonus page for the number of hands they are credited vs. the number of hands they have played.

You ARE NOT getting credit for each hand where you sit at the table and at least ten cents is taken. You are ONLY getting credit for the hand if you are involved in it and rake is taken.

For example, I have played over 1,000 hands and have only been given credit for 266. Using the regular rake formula this is impossible since I play 200/400NL 6max.

Also, I will repeat. I can play 20 hands, see that 13 are raked, yet only play in 4, and I only get credit for the 4.

The only way I am wrong is if Party is not updating my bonus page correctly. But I seriously doubt it because every time I am actively involved in a raked hand, my "Raked Hands Played" credit goes up.

Don't get me wrong, I wish you were right, then getting the bonus would be cake. Instead, I won't clear it because I have company and really can't play.

Besides, it's only $300 and I'm not going to put any more energy into it.

Considering I have played about 1200 hands since the promotion started, and I see 0 raked hands under my bonus page, I would think party not updating their bonus page correctly is a strong possibility. Also, I see no reason why they would change the way they count raked hands all of the sudden.

This is wrong.

I got $50 bonus each day. So, that's 300 raked hands each, appearing as 3 separate bonuses. Their calculation of raked hands must have been messed up (was appearing as -1 at first) because I only got 195 ish for over 1,000 hands yesterday, and 700 on Friday.

HOWEVER, I just finished clearing ALL the rest of the requirement in one 1,100 hand session just now. Edit for clarity: I cleared all 3 separate bonuses, each of which required 300 raked hands.

Can anyone else confirm?

Wish I could get worked up about the rake requirement nuances, but I got a big fat ZERO, so I don't care.

this is ridiculous.

While SOME people got different bonuses on different days it appears obvious that MANY people got the same amount on each day and that something is askew with their 'random' lottery thingee (which sadly and frighteningly gives credit to teh conspiracy theorists who think the cards are somehow messed up there, albeit unintentionally)


Somebody getting $5 on each of the 3 days, while someone else gets $75 on each of the 3 days, while many of us got $0 on each of the 3 days, all combines to lead one to the rather obvious conclusion that they screwed up and it isn't random.
