There's an occasional bug where the specific tourney lobby doesn't update. You can fix it by closing and re-opening the lobby. This is what happened here. I've asked that you be added to next week's tourney.

I wonder if this has happened to anyone else. One of the cash omaha 10 suddenly closed. I re opened it and some time later the same happened again. I am playing 4 tables and tired so more than likely its me clicking something accidentally but just checking.
It'll close when it's been 2 handed for a while, maybe that is what happened? It should give you a message if it does though...

It looks like some players are gone, but they're actually playing, and I can't see my cards but blinds will be posted for me. The worst is if this happens when I'm in the hand..

Please look into it.
I'm playing browser edition on Win XP computer
Thanks - could you post your alias or PM me your username please? If possible, could you post a screenshot too please?

not sure about nl600. it might be just right for me personally, but perhaps it would make a significant amount of strong regulars join.
Yeh, I am leaning towards your position. I think that if we add NL600 it'd be the biggest game we'd have, at least for quite some time.

Yeh, there'll be cash. Not sure on what stakes, I'll investigate. It's held at Casino Barrière Le Croisette - see http://www.unibetopen.com/events/cannes2014/

They're calculated based on what the average of the playerbase does. It's likely that most good regs are going to be a bit tighter than the average. But not 100% vs. 25%.

Yeh, I think we'll do this for Q4. We can't change them mid-quarter though.

I didn't build Challenges with casual players in mind. The aim of the site isn't 100% about casual players - the aim is to bring about a level playing field, keep our new players alive for longer, make the game fun, but to keep our regulars relatively happy too. Challenges is about the last of those.

I wasn't really expecting casual players to enjoy them too, which is why we started on 10k hands per major step. I reduced it to ~8400 this quarter, but I think I'll go down to 3k or 4k next quarter. I suspect that a lot of people who don't play a ton don't realise how long 10k hands can take.

There's also a problem of selection bias - people who find them too long will post here, people who don't, won't.

Is the poker client down at the moment? I cannot seem to log in through the iPad or Mac client at the moment.

Edit: Got back in about 10 minutes later but the log in process itself was very slow (latest Mac software).

Tried to register for a 1€ HU SNG and got the following error notification: Insufficient funds.

You don't have enough funds. Deposit now in order to play.

Saved screenshot just in case where it also shows the balance in the background.

It's working for me on PC and on browser. Anyone else having problems?

I just asked the mobile team to test logging in with a German account and they had similar problems, so I've asked them to look into it.

There'll be cash games from 5/5 apparently.

Thanks for the PM.

What happens if you click "OK" on the insufficient funds message then try again?

What happens if you try to login fresh now? Does it take a long time still?

Just tried again and the log in was still rather slow. However, it did let me register for the same HU SNG type now. Not entirely sure what is going on.

Andrew, a couple of things about MTT's.
Sorry to disagree with you but the lobby updating, this is not an occasional bug in my experience. I played 2 MTT's last night and neither updated. If you switch between the 2 back and forward then you get the correct info but they aren't dynamic. This has been a regular feature since I've been on Unibet. The big question is when will it be fixed? like a lot of things it's no biggie, but it is annoying.
Secondly can you look at the MTT pay out structure for the smaller tourneys, as it's not right. I played the deep stack and with 12 playing it was paying 2 places (I'd expect it to pay 3 at 10 places or there about) at 13 it paid 3, by the time 18 had registered it was paying 6. So with just 6 additional players registering it moved from 2 to 6. The other thing to factor in is that it's not right that the last place paid is less than the cost to enter the tourney. Last night 6th paid 25 which was just about ok as this is your money back, but I played in one earlier in the week where the last place paid was less than the buy in. As an MTT guy it's not right to play for hours, make the money and realise that you've still not won anything! As a cautious MTT player I support flat pay out structures, but it's too much up top at the start and too flat at the bottom (in my opinion), you're in charge. Adrian.

I did switch back and forth all the time as I as also playing other tourneys, it never showed the correct amount of players.

This is definitely high on the list of things I want to be fixed soon. It's all a bit awkward at the moment as so many people are on holiday, but I plan to hassle them a lot when they're back.

It pays out in bands. So if there are 1-4 entrants, 1st gets 100%. If there are 5-12, 1st gets 2/3rds, 2nd gets 1/3rd. The next bands are 13-18, 19-54, 55-72. I think we need to smooth out the bands from 5 to 54. After that it all works OK. I'll look into this.

The €1 tournament tickets are quite worthless imo. There's only one €1 UO tournament per day on top of that... Can't you make it so that you can change the tickets for cash or at least automatically combine them for higher value tickets?

similar thing happens also when playing client on my Win 8.1 comp, but very rarely, more often if I'm multitasking;
win xp & browser on the other hand, I can expect it every day, no matter the circumstances :/

Hi Andrew, thanks for replying. What I think would work is along the lines of:

1-4 pays 1
5-9 pays 2
10-19 pays 3
20-54 pays 5? This is the interesting one, as if only 20 enter the 5th place may get less than the buy- in, you could do with 20-39 pays 4 in-between and have 40-54 paying 5 or 6 if you wanted a flatter pay-out structure. Most MTT's I have played pay just about or just over 10% of the field. Only my 2c but I am trying to help, thanks as always Adrian

HI Andrew, How do i highlight your reply as a quote when i respond. Earlier re table closing they were full at the time. Couple of anomalies to report. First, when i click on my 25 uo ticket it shows only wed final for use. It can also be used on sunday to the 250. Second, I have a 50 uo ticket. That shows it can be used for wed 25 final. Does this mean you have to have an auto double buy in or would you get a 25 uo refund.

here is a suggestion for 1 EUR UO tickets:
make them so we can combine several of them for multibuy ?
right now we can only use 1 by 1... and it seems there is only 1 such tourney per day where we can use it

Andrew, I don't want you and the rest of the Unibet team thinking that we all feel this way.
The football spins have been awarding FREE tickets that Unibet have been giving away. Yes there is only one tourney that you can use them on, but if you have multiples Andrew will change them for 2e, 4e, 10e ubo's etc.
This month I have won 41e of tickets and will be sad to see it end. This is FREE, in addition to the missions and the challenges and I'm very grateful and I'm sure most of the forum is too.

yes, free is good, but right now as it is, I'd much rather win 1EUR S&G ticket with fewer points on spin, than 1EUR UO ticket... It's just more practical, IMO

I agree free tickets are always nice, Hope there is another promotion of some type next month, really enjoyed earning the 2euro UO tickets for playing 10 flops a while ago. I think Unibet is the best site for gaining freebies, always keen to see what new missions there are each month. Thanks Andrew keep up the good offers.
