Hey Andrew

My £500 welcome bonus freerolls expired before I got to use them is there anything that can be done to renew them?

Also what is with all the things expiring? I have several bonuses expiring within a couple of weeks and I only play 4NL right now and it takes quite some time to unlock them at this stakes.

I plan on moving up to 10NL once I have 20 buyins.

I'm in Copenhagen at the moment and can't access the back office yet, so I'll leave the rest of this thread until the morning when I can get something worked out.

Meanwhile, you've probably noticed, but we're on Twitch during the Unibet Open: http://www.twitch.tv/unibetpoker

Lots of disconnects tonight, while I was connected to the internet. Has something changed in the way the client deals with disconnects?

Then when I got disconnected it wouldn't ever reconnect, I had to close down the client every time, which cost me a lot of money.

I got Disconnected tonight when I had AA and had money in the pot, panicked and tried to relog and it was already too late, all in all I lost about half my stack because of it.

Sit there and play 400 hands and on the 1hand I have AA I get disconnected just unbelievable since my internet was working just fine lol

Someone that has completed the sng promo challenge this month can you tell me do you get alerted as soon as you complete it?

Also Andrew could you confirm how many have completed so far out of interest

Tnx

I think so too But 1.25M for the Unibet Open package is possible for sure (not for me ) so I was wondering how many players reached that mark.

And if no-one reached the 10M mark, it would be interesting to know what the highest point total is

I dont get people asking to extend their bonus time. If you didn't or couldn't put up the volume just live with it as others do. I only deposited 10€ and already got bonuses worth about 5€ and going on (playing 1€HU's and some PLO4). In relation to the rake I paid I suspect it's huge. They try to make money not financing micro-poker bums, lol ;P just sayin... don't want see this thread to become about bonus bagging

BTW: try to get a bonuses cleared on the big sites like PS and compare it to UB, gl

cheers and have a nice and fun weekend

I didn't get any notification. Probably it will be sorted when the promo ends tomorrow.

There is a leaderboard showing all the totals.

489 people have completed it already.

Challenge is "flop a set and turn a straight or flush in the same hand"

Not sure if its related to a problem I read ages ago, to do with the head start we got at the start of this season.
You flopped a set, but you only turned a straight draw. (you rivered the straight, but that isn't the challenge).

I think this is a sensible thing to have options for. We'll see how easy it'd be to build.

I think in the long run for those players that want do to things like:

Find out how many hands at nl4 and 10 they played in last x hours
What their winrate was in those hands
Find out finishes by position in 5 handed sng over x games or x time

There should be built in reports available somewhere. This would mean unibet offer reporting in the client (or perhaps via a separate reports tool) far in excess of any other site, but I think this is needed to compensate for fact that players that are not just splashing about, even if not a pro, or even a winning player , sometimes like to try to improve their game and work towards playing winning poker, and need those tools to see how they are doing.
I'm worried that if we have a stat in the client that says "you're down €xyz in the past five years" we'll put people off while they'd be fine with just spending €25 a month or whatever. I think people should be able to get that information, but I think it should be limited via customer service.

Anything I can do in this thread, customer service should be able to do too. If I get too busy to handle this thread it'll be because we've grown a lot, but that means that customer service will be more used to poker questions, and we can help educate them too.

Yes, agree - this is an area we are interested in improving at some point.

For higher level regs its a must to follow their potential leaks against the player pool when battling more and more against other regs.
I understand the argument, but our focus is on keeping new players alive for longer. We aren't going to add features that help regs but harm new players.

Nobody will reach 10m. I just put it in there so that we're covered in case someone gets near. I'm afraid I can't really tell you for 1.25m because it's giving away information about our player base that I can't share. I am fine posting about trends and our thinking behind our plans, but I don't want to share too many real numbers or analysis on promotions etc. Those are things that our competitors can more easily use.

What's your alias? Tickets expire, but you can only have one active bonus at a time. Those have quite long expiry times.

I don't want to make a habit of it, but I don't mind helping people out from time to time. The cost to us is pretty low and it makes people happier. If the cost gets too high (too many people asking) or it stops making people happy (they just think they deserve it) then I'll stop.

We thought about it, but I think ultimately we won't. I don't think we want to be that kind of site. We thought about adding some packages as a promo, but mostly because we could have done it quite early and it'd make us stand out from other sites a bit. A lot of the value in WSOP is if you can send quite a few players, as then one of us can go there too and buy them drinks etc, plus of course the chances of them going deep increase.

Sending one or two just doesn't seem too exciting to me, and sending 10+ is expensive as it takes 100k out of the ecology.

Our network monitors report a bit of packet loss from 23:36 to 23:42, but it wasn't a widespread problem. If you mail support with any refunds requests they'll be able to handle it.

Ok, I understand, The way I read it was flop a set and turn it into a straight by the end of the hand, not flop a set and get a straight on the turn.

Basically I used the wrong meaning for the word turn.

Ps can you change my plo cash ticket and 3 x 1e mtt tickets to 5 x 4e nl4 tickets.

Thanks

'bug report': when succesfully finishing the playthrough requirement of a ticket (I had a 25nl ticket and see 300 flops) a message comes up saying:
"Your ticket balance was too low to be used at the tables. The remaining balance has been credited to your account."
Prob better if it said u completed the requirement or something.

And another thing, installed the new version yesterday, when u open Unibet or a table u get like a green loadingscreen for a sec,
its like the green is brighter than before... not a fan of it
