Hole in one challenge

  I've tried a few of those Hole in one challenges that com up when playing a CTTH, Blitz etc.

  I staked 50 credits, got it in the our circle and won 7 creits

  ThereforeI LOST 43 credits.

  Is that right?

  I'm not follwing how I can meet the challenge JUST but, lose credits.

  If that's it ... I will never ever play these challenges again.

  Thanks

  hi

  the big payout is for hole in one. when you get inside the circles, you will get part of the original bet back.

  Has WGT looked at the fact people feel cheated by this and would be much more likely to try it again in future if shots within 1 foot paid back your stake rather than a small fraction of it?

  WGT will only have to wait until the big majority of players recognizes that "feel cheated" and avoid the challenge. Then and only then will they move.

  EXACTLY - players will feel cheated IF they do not look carefully. When I first saw the challenge I thought  it was a rip off and declined (you can turn off the challenge in the menu as well). And the "big prize" is not a big prize for the odds of acheiving an ace. 50,000 credits and maybe I would think about it

  Approx it seems WGT are giving odds of 1/7 of getting in the outer circle ... so IF you do that the STAKE should be returned and if betting 50c you win 57c

  But 1/7 on getting the outer circle is a joke!
