I'd probably prefer something like 1/3 - 2/3 - POT - ALL-IN. It's also quite "neat" that way. I saw a stream where Doug Polk was playing and he had things like 31%, 68%, 110% etc. - I think that's a bit "messy" to show to a general audience.

People like us participating in this thread are possibly not representative. Is it not possible to data-mine what sizes people are using and use that as the basis? - but make a judgement to slightly discount the ones that are already clickable buttons. (i.e. if 35% of people usually bet half pot, and 25% of people usually bet 1/3 pot despite there being no button for it, that probably means 1/3 pot is actually more popular).

My main feedback for the tournament schedule as a whole is that it looks like it was created based on the advice of a person who thought he had an edge in add-on tournaments. There seems to be a shortage of freezeout and straight re-buy tournaments.

It's a small bit of dev work but it would be nice to have shootouts (i.e. you play till the table is cleared before there is a redraw so it works more like the FA Cup - e.g. with a quarter final of 216, a semi final of 36, a final of 6). You basically need it to pause table balancing /redraws any time that the number of people remaining is anything other than 6, 36, 216 etc for 6-max (players left is X^Y where X is max players per table and Y is any number) That way you could also have HU tournaments.

Probably be 33% 66% Pot and All in that make the most sense these days as LektorAJ said. Overbets are barely used so no need for a button there, for the few times you would use it you can just adjust it manually.

I just received an email about a free €25 cash game ticket, but there is none. Did I misread the email, or was it sent out by accident?

Update for the above.

All NL players contacted incorrectly will now have a freeroll ticket that can be used in any of the €1k freerolls that will run over the next 5 days, starting tomorrow.

Props unibet, you have made missions better.
I was about to leave the site at one point, been happy player for couple months now.

I have always wanted to see No limit omaha, as a idea.

Obviously German players can't register right now (it's been deactivated about a week ago I read), but it says registration will be back soon. Any idea how soon is "soon"?

I didn't even know they had been stopped to be honest. Turns out there are some technical issues caused by some changes that need to be made to be compliant with the new KYC (Know Your Customer) rules.

Probably going to be a couple of weeks before it's fully resolved but it's top of the high priority list so I wouldn't be surprised if it's resolved by the end of next week.

Hey, I've had Unibet account for sometime, but I've never deposited there. Now I would like to make a deposit, but I don't have the welcome bonus showing up on my bonuses. Is it still available for me or is it gone for good?

Is it that it still shows there is time left to late reg but the button doesn't work or that the description doesn't match when late reg actually closes?

For the first one, it's a long standing bug where if someone busts really early in the tournament the software doesn't move to the next payout distribution tier and basically caps teh tournament. It's on the backlog to be fixed.

Best thing to do is to contact customer support once you've made the deposit. They'll be able to manually credit bonuses if it doesn't automatically trigger when you deposit.

Wow, after a 18 month Hiatus I returned to UB CG's having been a comfortable NL50 winner there before and was just messing around at NL4 with the roll I had left there and even that low the games seem to have gotten a lot stronger. Don't think I've seen a major spaz out in 5kish hands and the players that are getting stacked the majority are coolers.

Just a small sample? or have the cash games changed that much all the way up the stakes? Obviously NL4 is easily beatable still but I'm shocked at how good the standard is for such low stakes.

I think it will hurt Unibet aswell. Many regs were playing when games weren't that good just to climb a spot or two in the rakerace, now there's no reason to do that.

That is unlikely to be the case. Simply put, the increase in activity hardly makes up for the cost.

In the ideal world, players should be incentivized through global promotions and the loyalty system, and players shouldn't be on different terms based on the link they signed up through/affiliate they're linked with. Thereby not said everyone should receive the exact same, for the same rake paid, but the affiliation with another site shouldn't be a deciding factor in terms of what/how much you get - Double Trouble (or at least the idea behind it) is a good example of differential treatment (in terms of rake to reward ratio) that actually makes sense, and we're planning to improve this aspect later this year. Also worth noting the new loyalty system will make it very easy to put individual players on better terms than default.

Paying a decent share of rake races to players winning before regular rakeback, that doesn't make much sense, when we're in som cases paying the - without comparison - highest regular RB % to winning players (we have players getting 65% today).

Is this the Unibet philosophy moving forward? Cutting off rakeback affiliates and also reducing the bootcamps lengths (which has been the trend for the past couple of quarterlys)? If so, that is QUITE a significant cut for the high volume players, especially in comparison with sites a la Party with lower rake/higher RB...

Yeah,this rakerace cutting off is big lose for many high volume players and many of us will have smaller rakeback because new rb system will be worse for players making above 12,885e rake in quarter (acording to unibet charts).. It would be nice if this decision of cutting off rakerace is reconsidered..

Exactly. I was quite of losing only a few % in RB in regards to the new reward system, but losing the rakerace matches my worst fears, tbh

I have to refer to my post above

I would expect slightly more global bootcamps/races going forward, partly due to the savings from removed or reduced affiliate races.

It's not impossible new loyalty will be postponed due to the Dutch re-regulation - some special requirements there - and if that happens, we might keep the particular affiliate race a bit longer (but likely with a different leaderboard). Official confirmation will follow in coming weeks.

How did everyone find the PKO series?

For anyone that was competing in the leaderboard there was a 'small' error where all the qualifiers were tagged in the same way as the main events and that meant you got the participation point on the leaderboard for every qualifier you played.

This was found out after I'd paid out all the prizes so the decision was made to leave the leaderboard as it was and then top up any missing bonus points for any player that actually finished above the position shown on the published leaderboard. This meant we gave out just over €4.5k extra in bonus points and about 30 extra people got a copy of Dara O'Kearneys PKO strategy book.

If anyone feels they didn't get what they should have, please let me know, and I'll check everything again.

I believe all rake races have been suspended for all affiliates at this time.

There are 4 main countries we have restrictions for. Belgium and Sweden being the most strict, Denmark having a cap on the total rewards we can give and Germany, which was added at the start of the year. They still have the loyalty rewards for the time being but no other promotions as far as I'm aware.

The Netherlands will be the next big on at some point in 2021

Considering this fact and that most likely more and more countries will regulate and add these kind of regulations (they do it for a reason), why are Unibet even offering a bonus system? The market becomes totally unfair depending were you live and as I said, countries are doing it for a reason (trying to fight against gambling addiction, were the gambling industry are huuuge hypocrites.) Dont be a hypocrite Unibet! Only fair and etic thing to do would be to lower rake for all players and completly remove the loyalty program.
