points not being added to score

Post by cook1947 »

I would appreciate it if my fellow players would check and see if points you win on each INDIVIDUAL hand is being added back to the score. On my computer, when I am just playing some of the games, after I have bet the initial 30 points, showing it has been taken off my score, then after the hand has been dealt and I have scored 15, 20 or 30 on that hand, it does not add to my score. Sometimes, I have won more, and the score remains the same. Then, after betting another 30, it goes to -60. Is this my computer, or are you seeing this also? I have contacted webman and he said he would check on it, but I see it is still doing this. I am in the Tournament of Champions this month, and since the scores can be really close, this problem could cost either you or me from winning. It is frustrating. You have to watch each hand for awhile to see if this is happening to you. Please give me feedback to see what I might have to do to fix this. I know at the casino's, if you bet 30, it takes it off your score, but whatever you win for that hand, it adds it right back in. Thank you

Do you mean the monthly 7 Star Tourney?

If so, don't worry. That one, like most other contests on this site, tracks wins only. No credits are deducted for the wager on each hand.

No, on individual hands on one of the many video poker games there are. You can see your score on the bottom right after each hand is played. Say, I am playing Triple Poker with Match Card..not in a tourney, but just for fun. Your score on the bottom right shows even, until you bet 30. It then goes to -30. After I have played my hand, if I win 10,20 or 30 coins back, it does not add that score back into my hand. It just ignores it. Then you bet another 30..you are now at -60. The 10,20 or 30 points you earned for the last hand is just not added in. It does not happen on the daily contests..just the individual games. I would just like to know if it happens to anyone else. You do have to keep track of your hand by hand scores.

I just tried the game that you mentioned, Triple Play with Match Card, and the points were added and deducted correctly. Must be something with your PC or browser.

But, your previous post indicated that you were concerned that the problem could affect your (or someone else's) chances of winning in the "Tournament of Champions".

Sorry for the confusion. I am not getting my points earned in some of the individual games, and I was concerned that this would continue into the tournament. I have had no problems with the daily contests so apparently this is just a problem with my computer on   games other than the contests. I will get some tech support and try and fix it. Just forget I said anything.
