Here is the extra info: 

My config: 
Probe: 
+TCPPing
 binary = /usr/bin/tcpping # mandatory
 forks = 5
 offset = 50%
 step = 300
 tcptraceroute =
 timeout = 15


Targets:
++ TestPubmatic
 probe = TCPPing
 host =  bid.pubmatic.com
 pings = 5
 port = 8


this is when i ran tcpping: 
root at atl-net-mgt-01:/etc/smokeping/config.d# tcpping
tcpping v1.7 Richard van den Berg <richard at vdberg.org>

Usage: tcpping [-d] [-c] [-C] [-w sec] [-q num] [-x count] ipaddress 
[port]

        -d   print timestamp before every result
        -c   print a columned result line
        -C   print in the same format as fping's -C option
        -w   wait time in seconds (defaults to 3)
        -r   repeat every n seconds (defaults to 1)
        -x   repeat n times (defaults to unlimited)
