Well I guess I can count this is 2/4 now...

Party screwed me out of 4 points. I played 203 raked hands of 1/2 full ring yesterday and only receieved 36 party points for my effort. Maybe I can't add and multiply very well but 4 points for every 20 raked hands should give me 40 points for yesterday right?

My theory is, they knew I was gonna win a good prize so they screwed me out of 4 points so I couldn't scratch today. Now I'll finish the rest of the days and win absolutely nothing. Those bastards!

Yep, 203 raked hands at 1/2 only equals 40 Party Points. Hmm, where do you get that 203 raked hands number? PokerTracker is very accurate counting raked hands, but even then, I play 20 more hands at the same level than the required minimum points for whichever promotion I'm trying for. So I know I won't be royally screwed...

I get my raked hands number from the Game Notes tab in Poker Tracker and filter for rake>0.25.

I'm using your system NOW...236 raked yesterday = 44 party points today...and a $30 scratchcard, woohoo!

It seems like all the low post count players here are winning the big items, and all us regulars (or sharks) win crapola!

Typical: It's rigged. I hope when you get the cashout curse when your laptop arrives.

Congrats btw.

How do you lucky bastards go 3/4 or 5 for 6? I've played a ton this month and have been shut out every single day on this promo. I'll fall out of my chair if I win $5.

Min points is the way to go methinks.

Post count doesn't have anything to with winning the "big" items or being a shark. Do you see why?

I won the DVD thingy, but it didnt take me anywhere. It just said it on the card, and if I click on my Account the card is still there showing I (still) won.

I've "won" $25, but I can't scratch the card until the promotion is over. I leave for work around midnight EST, and I get home after 11am EST.

Great!

I [censored] hate party. 0 for 7. Of course I'm going to play today and tomorrow to try to go 0 for 9 because I'm a whiny bitch. I know I'll win $5 on the last day just so party can thumb their nose at me and keep me from totally bageling.

I think I discovered the secret to winning. Come on 2+2 prior to 11AM cutoff complaining that you never win anything from party and like magic you'll win something when 11AM comes.
