Re: Explain to me like a child :
[ QUOTE ]
Like a child? Ohhhkayy You see that little "x" you're asking about? That is often used as a symbol for multiplication. So when you see 10x, this means "ten times" Bonuses have raked-hands requirements in ring games only (at most sites, there are some exceptions). There is also usually a threshold for what makes a "qualifying" raked hand. Most sites only require that you be dealt into the hand. A few sites require that you contribute to the pot. In the example of "ten times," to clear $1 in bonus money, you must play ten qualifying hands that are raked. Leveraging the above information, you should be able to read the T&C's of any bonus and site rules and figure the rest out for yourself. Don't come back all shocked that hands raked $0.05 aren't counting on some sites. Read the T&C's and enjoy. [/ QUOTE ] Threshold. Contributed. Leveraging. The.

Explain to me like a child [/ QUOTE ] It is obvious that none of you guys are around children very much. The proper way to explain this like you would a child requires only one word -- Because.

Re: Explain to me like a child :

What this whole business is about. What exactly does 7x, 14x, 20x mean? Why do some sites that both have 10x for example, clear at different rates? Thanks : ) [/ QUOTE ] 10X means you play 10 raked hands for each $1 in bonus money. so it looks like 10/1x or 10raked hands for 1dollar bonus money. for example, at paradise, you must play 100 raked hands for $10 in bonus money. So it is essentially 100/10x or just 10x. 7x is 7raked hands for every dollar...etc.

Is it not a cent until I hit 100 raked hands, then $10, or is it $0.10 cleared for every raked hand?

Some sites release NOTHING until you clear it all! Paradise has no expiration date, which, of course, is good.
