Winter promotions: collect your festive Kicks and win awesome prizes!

Because that's a weekly thing and there we hint towards the new prizes of the next week. (PT4, HM2 etc)

Plus we already have a number of other news around the Winter promo coming out all the time. So yet another news would not make much sense.

If I have the time I might just add the list here in this EN master thread but to be honest, I don't quite see the added value in player A knowing player B won a token on room X.

If this is just another "conspiracy thingy" then I believe 99.9% of all players here know that when we promise to give out prizes, we actually do so.

You brought up the conspiracy theory thing which never crossed my mind. I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that everything is fair. Shame that your initial reaction was to think I might be one of the 0.1%.:f_cry:

Surprising as it may seem I Just thought it might be nice at Christmas time to mention those people who were lucky enough to win the prizes each week wherever they come from.

Anyway good luck everyone.:f_biggrin:

Hey guys,

I've been told that we applied a hotfix to get SideKick working with PokerStars 7 again. ♠_thumbsup:

We are still working on the NetBet issues though.

Thanks for your patience.

Shouldn't "Fight Club" be in the week of :club:s?

Sidekick is now working with PokerStar, it's collecting hands but why not recognize my Advent Aces, I've won at showdown with a pair of aces. I only got 2 latest missions: Any five cards FTW, Advent Week 1.
I also wonder why my Missions still shows (0/17), Progressions is still (0/13

cool idea but not complitly sidekick work with pokerooms but when fixed rly grat idea

my Sidekick get an update today ♦
But still same problems: played 467 Hands - tracked hands over Sidekick: 78
Doubled up at 2 CG Tables / no Kick earned
yesterday: played at least 10 SnG's - no Kick earned....

so I really don't know what to do - btw: I participated at last year winterpromo as well - but there all went fine - so I know that it can work fine...
I didn't checked if it is working on netbet - no motivation for that

Known Players:
CO: 1143 - 23 bb
BU: 440 - 9 bb
SB: 822 - 16 bb
BB: 795 - 16 bb

25/50 No Limit Hold'em Tournament (4 Handed)
Hand recorder for this hand: PokerStrategy.com SideKick 2.1.11202.8

Preflop: Hero is SB with A♣, 7♣
Hero pays ante (5), 3 pays ante, Hero posts small blind (25), BB posts big blind (50), CO raises for 100, BU folds, Hero 3-bets 792 and is all in, 2 folds, Hero gets uncalled back (717)

A hand I won tonight recorded in Sidekick.
Should this hand not have triggered the 'Suited Up' Kick? Am I missing something?

Hey grbell,

The hand must go to showdown.

Regards

Laz

Hi Laz,

Thanks for clearing that up.

Cheers,
Graham.

PKR has now been added to the SideKick promotion! Enjoy

Plus - the NetBet issues have been solved - all should be working now.

However, in case you spot some problems, please let us know. Thanks!

Hi, been playing with sidekick all week now, i played around 10k hands so far but only around 6.5k hands got tracked by sidekick, actually have no idea why some hands not geting tracked properly in every session since i play same games all the time, also kicks for this winter promotion havent been credited even when the winning hands have gone to showdown, for me with this volyme its not a big problem since i do achive this kicks more then once and sooner or later geting it credited but i can think its frustrating and not so fair for some players with less volyme,,

was trying the sidekick in summer and had similiar problems with hands not geting tracked, so i do strongly feel this tool is not so trustworthy,, netbet do work now when timezone in poker lobby is set to local,, at titan , ladbrokes it works when set to GMT isnt this something that should be in download guide?

I lost Motivation for this Promo... It is somehow frustrating to hope to earn Kicks, if Sidekick is "allowing" it. Half of week is already done and still no Solution for trustworth tracking of all Hands (needfull to earn Kicks...) I really loved this Software but it become now just annoying... sorry to be so rude...

Yeah, at least I won't have to grind that tiresome NLHE

Great news about PKR being tracked by Sidekick. It is also working well for me too.

Sadly Netbet still not working at all for me. I've still to check out Stars but I'm not optimistic. I'm using the UK client and I don't think Sidekick supports that. None of the previous versions worked with it.

William Hill continues to work fine.

Sadly there are too many variables with all these clients that can cause problems unfortunately. So it's basically impossible to test all of these things but it's worth trying to experiment a bit whenever you experience issues.

Promotion ri...? I hope you don't

short update: I reverted my PS7 back to PS6 and now...

Spoiler

Sidekick is working!!!!! NOT only working, also tracking almost instantly ( not all hands but mainpart of played hands and much more then before)..., and there is no delay of 5min or so anymore as before...

decided to leave PS6 until the end of this promo and hoping to catch some kicks

nice weekend NVKS
