Egarim 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I recently did the reload bonus for the 100 max to pad my hourly rate just a little. I'm going to easily play 700 raked hands either way so why not get $100 free.Well, I always check my statistics after each session and keep track of hands played. Then I checked the Raked Hands Played to clear bonus and noticed it didn't add up.Yesterday- 210 hands played - Party showed 159 raked hands Today 188 hands played - Party shows 294 raked handsAnyone else seeing stuff like this? Although it doesn't affect me as I will have no problem clearing the bonus. This horrible addition by pp concerns me a little. Link to post Share on other sites

frazwood 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 The solution is obvious.You must play 700 RAKED hands. Not all hands are raked. For low limit (less than $1/$2), the pot must be $5 or something before it is raked. Link to post Share on other sites
dna4ever 2 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 understand there is a big difference from a hand played and a raked hand.Visit http://www.partypoker.com/games/rake.html to see their rake structure and know that only raked hands count towards the bonus release.

Egarim 0 Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 Ahh.. I feel stupid . But it does seem odd that i played almost 400 hands and 100 aren't raked. 1/4 of the hands in a 5-10 game aren't raked??? Well sht this sucks... my rakeback's going to be a lot less than i calculated. Link to post Share on other sites

Since only $7 in from the blinds any stolen blinds or even 3 way flops with a bet and fold dont count towards rake so very easy to see how its possible for 25% of your hands played not to be raked.

Well sht this sucks... my rakeback's going to be a lot less than i calculated.A $100 bonus at 700 nonraked hands wouldn't even be profitable for poker sites. This way they are making a minimum of 700*0.5= $350 before paying out your $100 profit. Otherwise they would probably show a profit decrease on account of all the bonus whores. Btw if you think it is slow to clear at Party try it at Absolute or any other gaming network. I saw at least 6000 hands to clear 2000 raked hands at 0.5/1. Link to post Share on other sites
