Here is an update about the SS2 promo in regard to hands. In the email I received it said don't worry about contacting them as the books would be mailed out by late October if you played the number of hands required. Here is the email about the hands that I got from ryanh:

Hello Ryan,
Just wanted to get clear exactly the hand requirements for SS2. As I understand it in the email it is 700 played hands but then I see something with the * saying that it is not the same "where any rake is taken". Is this 700 raked hands or 700 played hands. Thanks very much for the clarification.
Sincerely,
Piers Majestyk
Hi Piers,
For this promotion, any hand where a rake is taken will be counted, i.e. any hand where the pot is $1 or more.
Kind regards,
Ryan Hartley
Manager - InterPoker

From the original email announcing the promo:
Some of you have told us of your difficulty clearing your bonus on the lower-limit tables. We listened!
Effective September 2nd, in addition to the current system where all hands raking over 1 unit ($/£/€) – (equivalent of a 20 unit pot) - count towards clearing your bonus, hands that generate a rake of at least 0.25 units but less than 1.0 unit will ALSO count at one quarter of a raked hand towards your bonus.
For example, every four hands you play which generate rake between 0.25 units and 0.99 units will count as 1 raked hand toward clearing your bonus, and with the new lower clearance levels we introduced in July this makes InterPoker the best monthly bonus on the net.
ALSO, with the newly installed “My Promotions” tab in the cashier, you’ll know exactly how far you are towards clearing your monthly bonus!
Good luck on the tables in September!
PLEASE NOTE: The Counter in “My Promotions” will only show your quarter raked hands when you have played a complete set of 4. While all quarter hands are counted, if you’ve played 7 such hands only 1 hand will be displayed in “My Promotions” – however, as soon as you’ve played your 8 th quarter hand 2 hands will show.
