I'm not in the office until Tue so I can't answer a lot of this but I'll quote it to remind me that it still needs an answer then.

aaand how much am I down in CG for this week atm, it should be over 20€, so If I can't win it back, when would I be credited with the DoubleTrouble Ticket?
Cheers,
Till

When seated at a cash table, click on the spade on the left side to see your progress.
Yeh, it's the 5 spins "good will". The mission is to "earn" spins:

Also, it's only 50 flops at NL/PL4. It's 25 at NL/PL10 and 15 at 25+.

Would it be possible to have it re-credited for this weeks tournament? I would just place another sports bet but I don't get paid until tomorrow.
My username is mcfctrav25
I'll look into this on Tue.

1. What is the probability to hit the 8500 in the slot machine? And the 2nd best prize
2. Did anyone ever get a package with this promotion? Or the best prize, whatever^^
3. I had the 3k march freeroll ticket for some time in my account but I never found the equivalent tourney to this. I read above that there was a problem with a freeroll is this it? I see that it is possible to get spins for the ticket can you exchange this for me or do I need to write to the support?
I'll have to answer this on Tue, but the freeroll was on Apr 1st. If you click on the ticket it should tell you which tournaments it works in.

I can't check as the guy who set the odds is on holiday until Tue. It's set by odds rather than by saying "ok, we need to give out a package today", so it's possible that none will be awarded. I prefer that we give some out though because I want that player to do well in the actual final so we can use the story.

I know that PokerStars suffers from the 'mass-tabling nitbox problem' especially badly when they run their Milestone promos, and that used to be quite annoying.
Yes, it might've been. I think Prize Drop worked to drive traffic, so maybe some of that was nitty. I can't check this until Tue though. I think it worked as a promo otherwise though, and I think we can make quite a few improvements. We'll maybe do it again in ~6 months.
I want to do milestones again at hand 200m too. I'm going to change the way it works a bit to try to reduce the value in nitting it up. That was already in place to some degree, but PokerStars have trained people to play it that way, so they don't read the rules. I think having a table cap for the whole site during those hands could be useful...

Yeh, I think this is our big long term advantage over a lot of sites. Eventually people will build the features we have that they like, but we can build new ones faster than they can. This is why having Adobe Air is good right now. It has definite downsides, and when we move away from it we'll do a lot better. But someone like PS have 15 years of infrastructure to build on and around. We have 10% of their developers, if not fewer.

It is a very popular game for beginners
One reason is that it's very hard to spot cheating in it. Another is that we don't want to split our SNG liquidity - we're a pretty small site still, we can't afford to make player pools so low that the games don't run. I think it may be more attractive to new players, but good players can take advantage of them more than they can in most games.

We did a kind of league in Jan for MTT - I think we'll do similar again but rework it a bit so that it doesn't require quite so much volume. Having one game a week is too much variance though I think.
As for merchandise - I'd love to do this, but it's just a huge amount of work. There're also problems with shipping. If we did it it'd have to be just for markets xyz. My original aim with Challenges was to include hats and clothing and stuff as I think that sticks with people longer than a ticket does.

I'd like more PLO too. It's up ~120% since launch (can't check while I'm out the office), compared to the whole site being up ~65%. This is why we include it in all of our promos.
On a related note, we're cutting PLO25 rake to 3% from Apr 28th.

Tournaments award points too, but they do it in small regular amounts instead of large varied amounts. It'd be too hard to do Challenges for tournaments - I don't want to make earning points about how good you are at poker, and I can't make it about volume of hands for SNG/MTT as that's the same thing. That's why we just settled with awarding points directly.

Thanks!
Also thanks for the good promo's again this month (i won the 50€ ticket with streaming on twitch!)
www.twitch.tv/hensiepensie
This is one for Tue too.
Twitch thing is interesting. In a week or so we'll mail everyone about it too, we just want to make sure it works properly. Right now there're quite a few people on small numbers of viewers and only a few streams, but we're hoping that as the month goes on both will improve. Hopefully it'll introduce some new people to streaming too, and they'll stick with Unibet.

Yeh, sorry, I'm not regular support. This is a site thing so you should talk to support, or do it from the site.

I don't know how this works I'm afraid, I'll have to get to this on Tue when I'm back in the office.

I was sat at your table if you do.
Did the 11pm freeroll freeze at 54 players for you?
and congrats on a ticket win(as long as it was you).
Andrew,
Can you change my daily 4 to a NL4 as well please.
I'll get to this on Tue as well.

This is why dealer chat is a bit garbled. If you pay attention to them, you'll see that those numbers are wrong for every player. We have a longer term solution too, but we will break any HUD that comes to our attention. In fact - here's a bounty. If anyone can link me to a working Unibet HUD that I don't already know about, I'll credit you with €100 in tickets.
