I am currently whoring the AB $200 Bonus, which should take me 2000 Points to clear.

Looking at the website they say that you get 1 point for every $.25 that is raked from the pot.

My question is if I look at my PT Stats I have played:

331 hands
Avg Rake was $.23
Total Rake was $52.31

Well according to these numbers I should have over 250 points because it looks like every pot was raked about $.25 right? Well I only have 93 points. So What I am mis-calculating? How long has it taken you guys to clear this bonus?

I am playing at the $.50/1.00 level.

Thanks for your input.

Pots need to be raked at least $0.25 to count. You can't get partial points for pots raked less than this.

Have you updated PT. There was a change in HH format that caused the rake and amount loss/won to be incorrect.

Your numbers seem off. $52.31 rake / 331 hands is only an avg rake of .1580 so it's only .16 cent avg per hand.

I get a good clearance rate but i'm playing mostly 2/4 stud and .50 NL games.

You are not going to get 75% of your hands to count at .50/1.00 level.

looking at PT i cleared $40 playing around 600-650 hands at .50 NL(6-max) and 2/4 stud on 11/2. Playing three tables and an occasional $20 or $30 sit and go.

Its probably your PT not being up to date. It has an auto update feature now if you want to use it.

Hope this helps.

absolute will rake hand $0.10 and $0.20 which would count towards the average rake, but not the bonus points.

EDIT:
To keep total track
Change your preferences for Absolute site only and dates you want to look at.
Go under game notes tab and get all.
Filter for hands raked at or above $0.25
Look at the number of games displayed, which will equal absolute points earned.
