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 : )

Re: Explain to me like a child :
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.
