Confused...please help

From the 8 bit promotion website

DIRE STRAITS

Your bigger straight beats your opponent's little straight at the showdown, twice in 2 days.
Must be playing Texas Hold’em Ring Games for Real Money. Your hand has to be part of the showdown and win. At least three players are required in each hand


Please have a look at hand numbers

P4-75114041-156

P4-75161775-360

On both occasions i had the bigger straight, there were three players or more in the hand and it was twice within the time period

Why did i not get the 8 bit credit for it

Hi sportsfish,

For detailed account and hand history queries please contact us via phone, email or live chat support here.

Also I would suggest that you review your hand histories one more time making sure that you meet all the criteria. The ones most players overlook is the three players at showdown and that the other player indeed had a straight.

Please let me know if you get this resolved.

Regards,
Shane

3 players at showdown?!?!New rule??

Personally I think this is an awful promo.The bad players are already over-rewarded here.

there is nothing that says three players to the showdown...all it says is three players in the hand.

I got paid out for the trip 5s one (hey presto) with only two at the showdown...and that says the same thing (three in the hand - which there was)

yeah I'm pretty sure 3 at the showdown is a bogey, so long as its not a battle of the blinds you are good

I was wrong sad. Just a lost ball in the high weeds very_happy.

Below is the minimum criteria, You guys are right wink

'Your hand has to be part of the showdown and win. At least three players are required in each hand played.'

This just means that there must be more or at least three people sitting at the table!
Also there must be least 3 of them involved in the hand that the player wins and the showdown.

Example of minimum needed for criteria:

ANTES/BLINDS
Player A pays small blind, Player B pays big blind

PRE-FLOP
Player C calls, Player A folds, Player B calls.

So as long as your hands have met this criteria as well as the 'Your bigger straight beats your opponent's little straight at the showdown, twice in 2 days' part then you should have received the bonus.

Regards,
Shane

WeeFatShug,

Can you explain to me how the bad players are rewarded with this promotion?

As far as I understand it's just an added bonus for a hand you would ordinarily play or want to play. Would you rather have us remove bonuses like this?
