Default Party Poker Bonus/Raked Hand Question Discrepancy

Can anyone help explain a HUGE discrepancy that I have with Party Poker and their hands played/raked hands for their bonus. At the start of my session last night, I did the May reload and have 700 hands to play to clear the bonus. I have been playing all night (3-4 tabling holdem). There is a HUGE difference between my raked hands played per my account bonus section (660) and the hands played per my session stats (1230) (right clicking on your party name).

I played all night, about 7.5 hours. I did miss some hands due to being timed out, but this was only occasionally and couldn’t even start to explain the difference. Does anyone have any info that might explain this HUGE difference?

I would think the two numbers should be close.

Thanks.

What level were you playing. If it was $2/4 or $3/6 limit full then those numbers sound about right. Those levels generally have somewhere between 50-60% of the hands actually raked. If you were playing .5/$1 or $1/2 then the do sound way low.

Not all the hands you played were raked. The pot needs to reach a certain size to become raked.

You can find more information here.

Thanks. I think that explains it. I was playing 2/4 full. I don't think I ever paid too much attention that there's no rake for pots under 20. I'm use to the Cali B&M "If there's a flop, there's a rake" (even if it's the whole pot). I'm almost there [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
