I made a graph earlier today after a Twitter thing:



It's calculated using 1m hands at each stake played on Unibet, so I imagine if someone used hands from a different site the results would be a bit different.

But I just realised that this is post-PL50 rake change. The next release is in late Apr, and we're going to cut rake at PL50 to 3.5% to 300c. We're also going to cut rake in €50 and €100 5-max SNG to 3%.

Yeh, it's not good at the moment. It's on the list of things to get, but I'm afraid we're talking several months rather than weeks.

Hi Andrew (or anyone)

I checked the deposit bonus info page but can't see a promo code for the 100% deposit bonus - do you need to enter any code for the bonus or is it automatically applied to your first deposit?

Thanks,

But why you don`t raise rake? It's better for the ecology!

Just kidding, nice move as always since you moved to your own software. I hope it will pay off (I read that the last financial statement wasn`t so good for poker in relation to the rest of the company, are you worried or is everything fine?)

Sorry, I don't convert tickets from one satellite system into anything except tickets of other denominations for the same satellite system.

It's not a first time deposit bonus, it's just a "welcome to Unibet" bonus. You get it automatically the first time you login.

Nah, it's fine. Those figures include the French site, some FX stuff, some accountancy stuff that I don't think should be included, etc. Gross we're up about 40% year on year (and way more than doubled since launch), and we are spending the same on bonuses.

It's just down to how the amount is calculated. You can see that things are going well by looking at historical PokerScout data for example (I think it is off by about 2%, which is impressive considering we don't provide them with a feed), or comparing the number of players at essentially any stake.

Hello Andrew!

Sorry to bring bad news, but software had my table crash with 3 players left and made me bust out 3rd from Pokerisivut Las Vegas leaderboard tournament

Here's the picture. I tried to close the window, checked lobby and it was actually working but I couldn't close the table and couldn't close client as well except by using Ctrl+Alt+Del and closing Unibet from there. Internet was perfect, no other site complaining about internet problems and the chipleader was also timed out in this hand so it probably happened to him too. I got back just when I had like 2k left and it was about the end of it.



Can you check it out quickly please? It's really hard to fix what's happened though, as leaderboard results are far more important than money at this point.

Are you guys trying to become a real competitor to Pokerstars? Are you serious about treating your customers well and becoming the place to play poker online? If you are I will give you guys a try since I am hoping another leader will emerge after Pokerstars has fumbled the ball so badly. But I want to play with the best, not just another ordinary poker site with bad software, long cashouts, and poor customer service. Also, I know you are growing, but as a player I don't care about whether or not you are growing revenues. I want to see the number of players actively playing on your site growing. If you are doing that I will be very happy.

I changed in August last year, my impression of the answers:

I certainly get the impression that the poker department would like the poker offering to overtake Pokerstars, though it needs to grow a lot.

As a whole the company (including sportsbetting etc.) has about double the stock market capitalization of Amaya gaming so Unibet is basically a bigger and longer established company.

Although the company has a whole is even more focused on sportsbetting/casino and less on poker compared to Amaya, it seems to understand market segmentation better, so they won't disrespect you by spamming your email with adverts for "million-slots-fun", and there is no equivalent to spin n go.

Customer service is very active on 2p2. "Unibet Andrew" is the head of poker, not just a customer service rep, so we get the feeling that we know what they are thinking/planning, whereas 888 etc. seem to a be a complete black box.

This is very subjective of course. I feel like I only really need to see my cards and have fold/call/raise buttons. Bet-sizing buttons are not customizable because recreational players wouldn't use them. Also the site is not compatible with HUDs and doesn't give hand histories. there is also no table/seat selection, or player-to-player transfer. So we can say the software is "rec-friendly"

It's not good for mass multi-tabling (people report instability when they have too many tables open but about 8 seems to be fine). There are sometimes server crashes - probably more than PS - though there was an upgrade recently. The users here seem to just laugh off the server crashes though, instead of going mental as they would with other sites, because the customer service team has built up goodwill. I also see it as a price worth paying for having somewhere not suitable for professional grinders to play - which should then show up in my winrate (or would if I could stop 3-barrelling with 32o).

We're told it keeps doubling year-on-year; people who've been around longer haven't challenged that so it's probably true.

Volume is lower though. At the moment (9.48 UK time), stake/games with volume issues are
NL25 - 11 seats occupied
NL100 - 14 seats
PL50 - not running (though rake is planned to drop in this one from 5.5% to 3.5%)
PL100 - 3 seats occupied
PL200 - not running
PL 400 - 6 seats occupied

SNG50 and SNG 100 not running - rake here is planned to drop from 5% to 3% (these are 5-max turbo btw)

Hopefully they will cut NL25 rake too at some point to make a smoother progression.

.. but tbh that's in your hands too. If people support the site (if necessary playing a wider range of stakes when they can't get volume at their favourite stake) then it will continue to grow.

The biggest change though is something you didn't ask - there is no tracking software and no graphs. If you do well at poker, and don't have a sharkscope graph to show on 2p2, did it really happen?
