Just played the happy hour promo on Stars but I don't think I got 50% extra VPP's , is there any way of checking this?

Was wondering the same thing. The stupid thing was there was no actual on screen announcement to say it had actually started.

i got it
games are tighish in the early hours tho and if you are a nit yourself it is quite possible that the difference isnt noticeable(the WC change plays a role as well)

They are tightish but the games I was in didn't seem so, was on some pretty loose tables, how can I check this?

If u go to cashier>history then player audit and do an audit for today with vpp on, you can see it.

Btw I thought it was pretty poor of Pokerstars to have no visual indicator in the client that happy hour began, was on going or had ended.

yeah it's difficult to see, look for an all in hand, then shortly after the vpp gained. In an all in you're contributing nearly 50% of the rake, so at 25NL 6max for example that would be around a dollar which is usually 5.5vpp, but is 8.25vpp during the hour.

I wish they would give an indicator for GMT time as well.

I didn't have any "all in" data because I play fixed limit. I am convinced though that the 50% vpp wasn't added. I have emailled Stars to clarify and I'm waiting for a response. Once I hear I'll post again

50% of 0 is still 0.
