aldric Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I haven't played any serious poker for a while and I did well at coolers on Virgin before and on a previous challenge went from €50 to €500 before I started playing blackjack! So lets try this again :ok I will not be playing blackjack this time around, just coolers and maybe some small cash in order to qualify for some of the v'roll games. registered the username of aldric-pl so I assume that will be trackable on sharkscope. :hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldric Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 Can someone tell me what constitutes a raked hand on virgin? Is it contributed rake? or as long as you are dealt a hand? Just got the 25 raked hands for the vroll playing 2c/4c. I wasn't sure whether to play every hand or be selective.

Beekeeper Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 A raked hand is when you are dealt cards and the rake is 1c or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morlspin Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 On Virgin, you need to be dealt cards, and see a flop for it to constitute a raked hand mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always nice to have 3 opinions to choose from. ;) ahem :spank team mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedinight7 Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 the only thing i find strange with virgin is, if you play sngs you pay rake per entry, but their system doesnt count this as a raked hand for vroll stuff..

Beekeeper Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 Yes, sorry Morls is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodger Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Re: Virgin - €100 - €1000 Yes Morls is right. When I was entering the Vpoints I kept track of my qualifying play...although a flop seen is not quite enough as rake is only taken when the pot builds. So small blind calls preflop. Flop. BB bets, SB folds. No rake taken and no raked hand scored. Easy way to track this is to reset your stats at start of play and ensure you play until 30 flops seen...then you should have 25 raked hands in. At least they can be earned at the lowest level which makes it very easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
