That's great, I like your bonus system in general I just don't like having to play holdem to redeem it, but ticket exchange solves that anyway.
Yeah on reflection I can see the practical use of the missions, so if it keeps the site running well then I'm sure you guys know what you're doing. I just put it out there from a vested interest in having more PLO recs tbh.

Regarding the SNGs, from my experience on other sites it seems like ~6m PLO games aren't popular, but I reckon there might be a market for 5050/DoN games based on the stars model up to a certain stake (there's a good volume on stars for those games). They're fun and attractive to certain types of recs and PLO begginners, and I'm sure some of the PLO tourney recs from your site would play them. Just a thought for when you guys do bring it up for discussion. HU sngs will likely get action (from me at least), but if you're considering larger tables I think DoN is probably a better choice than 5m.

I think it's best to avoid DON SNG because it's possible to profitably collude in them in a very subtle way that you can't catch without really big statistical samples. I'll see how the games run over the next couple of months in any case.

True, but DoN action doesn't usually reach stakes high enough that any one would bother with a concerted effort, plus they're typically inhabited by mostly recs and nits anyway so the increased edge isn't really that great for experienced players. Maybe if you capped the stake at 10e (this probably shows how little I understand cost/revenue of running games idk)? I just think the micro ones would be popular at Unibet

There are and have always been very strong collider rings in DoN's, hence why most poker sites have mostly done away with them.

I think we should avoid game types where we know it's possible to collude in a way that we can't detect. We shouldn't have games where players know they're at an unfair disadvantage with some of their competitors.

Fair enough, I don't really know anything about collusion, I just like the games. But if that's really the case even at micros I totally agree (and won't play them anymore ofc). Thanks for the courteous, informative responses to my rants Andrew, very much appreciated.

Hi Andrew,

1. Is it true you are going to introduce PLO800 games at Unibet?

2. I wouldn't mind some sort of "High-stakes PLO weekend" type of promo where you open PLO1k tables like you did with NL back when Isildur was sponsored. If regular "higher" tables are not a possibility, yet, would you consider doing something along the lines I have proposed?

That's alright, I like feedback.

And don't get me wrong, I don't want to dissuade people from playing games they like on other sites. It's just that, as we don't have hand histories, it's important that we don't give the impression that we might have any dodgy games (plus of course, important that we don't actually have them).

Yes, assuming that NL & PL400 run a similar amount in Nov as they did in Sep & Oct. I assume that means point 2 is moot, but I don't think highstakes day worked very well because people can't get into the habit to play.

I really enjoy to play PLO on your side.Good traffic, no zoom, no shortstackers, and no HUD...some old poker feeling!

just a short review from my Unibet experience:
i played close to 130k hands this year on Unibet.
60% PLO50
25% PLO25
10% PLO100
5% PLO200
In total I raked ~11,760 €. (playing >40vpip) I received about 3800€ as bonus during that time. (had no 1st deposit bonus)
I didnt target those achievements they offer. So the bonus/rakeback was ~32% for me.
Support is really good. Also UnibetAndrew is doing a great job to support. (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/28...hread-1452899/)
Can't really say games are easier or tougher compared to other sites.
cheers
