I suppose there's no way to join an affiliate after a vanilla sign up? Any chance of Unibet offering some exclusive promos to non-affiliate accounts to level the playing field?
I don't understand the benefit to the site of this kind of affiliate. How often is it the case that someone has never heard of Unibet but is a regular visitor to that rakeback site, so the rakeback site gets commission for "finding" them as customers for the site? Isn't it way more likely that the person wanted to play on Unibet anyway, and looked around for where they could get a discount on the rake - or maybe half of a discount on the rake after the site has taken its cut?

If it's something like someone has clicked a link from a pokernews article on "what hand beats what hand" then ok, it's legit marketing spend but otherwise I don't get it.

as your claim is generalised over the whole 'internet', i'll point out that loads of sites in fact have way higher rake.



p.s.
it's kind of ironic when 100z mass-grinders make complaints with maximisation of their poker earnings in mind. not sure if i should explain why.

I found out this Asian(?) network GGNET and tried it out one day. Why Im writing about this in here is that I think Unibet should have a close look on what they are doing. There are some good things that could be implemented.

For Recs&Entertainment:
Optional straddle - not very popular though at least in omaha
Run it three times
All in insurance - site offering optional insurance when going all in with a made hand against a draw
Emoticons - replacing traditional chat
optional Rabbit cam

And something for Regs too:
!!
Poker Craft (check this out! something I would like to see Unibet to add!) - a built in personal playing history/database where player can see statistics such as win/loss/ev per table played, win/loss per position etc.
!!

Sitting out timebank (smoking, toilet etc break buttons that gives u a little longer break)
betting size buttons can be customized
Thanks, someone on my team found this site a couple of weeks ago too, we've been talking about it a bit. To be honest, I'm not that interested in Poker Craft or emoticons.

I don't mind rabbit cams, or run it thrice, or insurance, but I don't think they're that great either. I think this is just what people found fun on High Stakes Poker, but that online it just leads to really slow games that will frustrate everyone.

What I liked with the site was the way it looks and feels, and the way they do some of the animations etc. I see they aren't tracked yet, it'll be interesting to see how they do.

No, sorry. First, there're no hand histories. Second, if you want the results, I don't do that any more. Please contact regular support.

I don't mind this, and in fact we do pretty much that with the bootcamps. But it's one of those things where I just prefer to spend the money elsewhere. I think we can make more effective promotions with it.

2) Am I allowed to run flopzilla while having only my hand history open in the Unibet client (and not playing any tables)?

It's third party poker software, but it's not a tracking tool and not intended for live use, but I guess it could be abused by those who are very quick in using it. So I totally understand, and even approve, if it's not allowed. I just want to be sure of what I can and can't do to know how to organise my poker play and study.

Presumably something which is single-hand vs single-hand is ok as it can only be used after the cards are turned over to see how bad a beat was etc.
Anything that interacts with the client is disallowed, anything that doesn't interact is allowed. It looks to me like both of these are the latter, as they don't read the hand in from the screen or anything.

I hate this affiliate model, and your post explains exactly why. People decide they want to signup at Unibet, THEN they go and look for an affiliate.

I would like to totally kill this kind of deal, but it's just not a fight I can pick at the moment. I'm not in charge of the affiliate department. I'm hoping to get quite a lot of investment in poker next year, which will put me in a much better spot for only having affiliates that actually attract players to the site.

Exactly. I think this kind of affiliate is a parasite on the industry. I'm also not fond of affiliates that simply shop their players around to whichever site offers the affiliate the most money, then as soon as someone else comes along, moves the players again.

The original poker site model for affiliates was to acquire players in markets where the site couldn't advertise, either for legal reasons or because they didn't have the expertise. I am totally fine with THAT model, and the latter case still holds in most places where the former does not.

It's such an emotive subject with some people that it's hard to actually discuss it. I assume you're talking about the mass-grinder part, but when I started talking about game difficulty and rewarding the losers I was pretty surprised. Some people appear to have a filter between their eyes and their brain, that changes the words I typed.

Hello!
I have a 250 Unibet Open ticket but I've already won a package to UO Bucharest.
Is there anything I can do with the ticket? Like converting it into cash or something. And what happens if I win another package or seat to the live event?
Thanks!

You can move the live package to the next event if you win a second one I believe or convert it into 1K of tickets.

You could also exchange the ticket into 5x €50 and just get the tickets active until the next event is announced.

It's the same on most sites, the sites pay a fee each time you deposit/withdraw.

Andrew, in the time before my last request to extend the tickets was completed a €4 MTT expired but wasn't revived, if you do this, could you make it directly a bonus? I also see that an other super double trouble and double trouble are about to expire in 1 day, so could you please extend them (and all the other tickets I have except for the slot freerolls which you can remove ) the maximum amount of time possible?
Thank you

Ok my bad. But they let you to wager in all games so next time just put that ammount to betting and use the smallest odds possible. Live betting is good for this.

that second part of my post wasn't actually referring to you, but to another poster who apparently plays 100z.

i didn't mention or claim that the player i was referring to was breakeven. if anything, i would guess that they have a positive winrate.

as for ''mass-grinder'', imo most 100z grinders' playing behaviour fits the predicate ''mass-grinder''.

no, you wrote ''in the internet''. you didn't specify only non-shady sites, which is a useless, misleading specification anyway when i consider the honest dealings i've had with some of these random small high-rake sites compared to the massive fraud commited by fulltilt, which seemed like a pretty non-shady site until 2011.

Unibet has no distinction between a poker deposit and a deposit for other things.

Just my opinion, but if your location is accurate then I'd say they're sailing pretty close to the wind on this one.
