April contest help

Post by MissElMonte »

Webman,
I could have sworn I held the four of a kind (4s I believe) in the first game I played and unless I was hallucinating, my score didn't jibe. Would you please check, if you are able because it's really bothering me.  In DDB, that would be an auto 400,000 but you can see my score was nowhere near that. Please tell me what I did wrong - or if it was a "computer glitch."
Thanks!

It scored correctly.You held four 4's.You got 71 of them at 400 points each, and 29 kickers worth 800 each.Total score: 51,600 for that hand.It would only be 400,000 (516,000 actually) if you had a 10x multiplier, but there was no multiplier on this hand.

WebMan, did you turn off the multipliers so that nobody would crack 1M?   The current leader almost did.

Last time we had this game in a contest, 2 people broke the million mark. We'll see if it happens again!

That reminds me - I need more breathe mint tins . Can't get them on your shopping network. Can I get some as a contest prize? Or better yet, maybe my 30k+ Players Club Total already qualifies me for a tin or two.

That leader's score is not so high.  I'm pretty sure I'm going to pass it when I complete my 12th session...oh, sorry , I guess you're not allowed to add all your scores together, huh?
