Alias: Emilli19

Thx in advance

Welcome back Andrew

Could you please PM me my lifetime results for cashgames:

* 4NL/10NL/25NL/50NL/100NL amount of hands played and € won or lost for each stake

* Also would like to know how much I'm up with tournaments. Can you also tell me what my total buy in amount is? Would like to calculate my roi if possible.

Current alias is DePosse. Sorry for the extensive request

Hi Andrew welcome back and hope you're feeling better.

Sorry if my post was confusing. I ended last quarter with 362500 points. Do I credited a quarter of the next bonus step? As in at 350k points there's a bonus and at 400k there's a bonus. I don't believe I received any compensation for finishing a quarter of the next step. I suppose it could have been added at some point but there's no email or notification.

Done to the end of the 5th.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes, but I think it'll mostly be fine. No matter how much we push the idea of the multiplier, most the winners of most the milestone hands win the minimum. They're too used to how PokerStars do it. If everyone played optimally instead, I'd run out of poker budget.

It's everyone at the table. So many NL4 tables is a sign of people not realising how valuable the x flops per hour multiplier is, sadly. Though it's nice to be the 2nd biggest site at the time.

Yup, sorry. No external software is allowed that interacts with the poker client.

Weird, thanks. I'll pass it on to the developers.

Sure, but over what period?

Support should have some things you can try, but in short, the software is very CPU intensive, particularly during milestones. If you keep the lobby maximised it should help for milestones.

Party did it like this didn't they?

I don't hate the idea of Expresso, but I don't want games that players can't win in via high rake or super-high variance. We have an advantage in that we don't have to worry so much about software aids to this game format, but I'm having trouble coming up with a system where it'd be more interesting to play Expresso on our site than on anyone elses'. I don't think too many people avoid Unibet due to lack of Expresso, but maybe there's a section of silent players who would like it.

I don't think the percentage of places paid changed, but we sometimes change start times to avoid tourney monitor problems (like with what happened with the SNG scrap a couple of weeks ago). But that said, the guy who looks after the MTT schedule has this thread: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/61...hread-1573306/ so that's a good place to go.

For what reason would you think that? I state at the top of the posts where I'm up to. Your request came after that. Now I'm further behind

We definitely wouldn't do Expresso in the same way that PS do.

Just because the payouts varied at random doesn't mean the slot is a gambling game. And as you saw at the time, lots of people really like the slot.

What's your alias?

You should really make sure you are robed when you leave the house.

It's a cap reduction - we put it up because it was mentioned in this thread that lots of people didn't know it existed. I agree the wording is bad though, we took it down and sent it for translation.

There're definitely downsides, but the upside is that more games run. It's important that people find the games they want, the more casual the more important.

This is something I'd do if I were in charge of all of Unibet and all we did was poker, but the company has other priorities. It's important to gain economy of scale and brand recognition in each country, which means we can only concentrate on a few countries.

If Unibet were to add Canada, we'd need to be very good at a few other sports than we currently have too. It's a big market though, so hopefully one day...

Yeh, high hand is a promo we're interested in doing. Someone in my team has done specs for it, but we'll see when we have a slot in the calendar and in development time.

Both done.

Unibet rep didnt respond to my message from 31th of march; my bonus is gone

Hi Andrew!

Whether it is possible to divide the last part of a bonus into smaller? Now he 140 and to make on 20 or 30 for example.

I do not think it was possible that question has been asked before

Some sort of Steps promo could work. Winner gets ticket to next round, 2nd gets ticket to same round. Final round pays cash/tickets. You would start at 1 euro for step one but allow 10 euro buy in to step 3 for example.

Multipler after x games promo. Play 10 SnGs, for example, and on the 10th one if you win you get a 2x multiplier on the prize. Play 100, get a 5x multipler on the 100th game. The maths behind it to make it cost effective for UB and still be enticing for players is way over my head but you get the idea.

Golden SnGs. Pick a random SnG every hour or 1 in 100 or something and give the prize pool a multiplier cash boost or ticket addition.


I'll think of some more while I'm pretending to work

"Some sort of Steps promo could work. Winner gets ticket to next round, 2nd gets ticket to same round. Final round pays cash/tickets. You would start at 1 euro for step one but allow 10 euro buy in to step 3 for example."

if you are spliting the sng pool into other parts is not a good ideea . is ok as it is and have look at promo as a think and not to divide the sng player pool. is not good ideea to have 4-5 sng formats , nobody will play .still in present a small lag with this cash promotion.

i probably will not be agree with leaderboard because will be to much collusion into those games.
It will be ok building some tournaments based on how many points you accumulate : 500 euro tournament for those who had 500 points , 1k euro tournament for those who had 1000 points or more , 1500 and so on.

btw, this is how I feel lately when I come to play some cash games on Unibet:



(and by lately I mean last 3 months or so)

I actually like the idea of the golden sit and go's, i don't see anything wrong with that, and thinking back at the old PS, that was a fun time with them golden's

ps. i know Unibet doesn't like to be called UB, because of it kinda looks like UltimateBet, and they definitely don't want to be mistaken for them

I thought of Ultimate when I typed it actually but was just lazy The golden SnGs wouldn't need a countdown either. You could just say the last golden one was x minutes ago, or games ago to stop people only trying to play near x00 game.

The steps program splitting the current SnG pool is valid although the idea would be that promo attracts people outside the regular pool. It was the first promotion that propped into my head so I wrote it down but there probably isn't the player base to run it.

Offering a freeroll for players that play x SnGs a week/month with money/tickets added could work. I don't know if the software would allow it but if the freeroll was a shootout it would keep the SnG theme.

Hi, can you change all my cash (3x1€bonzai are about to expire) and tournament tickets to 1 x NL10 ticket + everything else to bonus. Thank you

A few thoughts/ideas on SNG promos.

Leaderboards - Good for building traffic but grinders win and of course a chance of collusion.

Steps - Takes action away from real money games (grinding steps for the whole promo with hope of hitting the big prize) but the chance to win something big in the final step could be enticing.

Freeroll Tickets - Everybody wins a ticket, they wait 1 month to play and only 10% end up winning something, ends up being a bit flat. (good for a side promo, like 27 series)

Golden SNGs - Grinders have higher chance to win because of multi-tabling. You could reduce multiplier the more tables but what if somebody starts a session planning to 10 table and instantly hits golden (might not matter too much, just lucky I guess).

Happy Hour - A period of time where everybody gets a % increase in challenge points. Everybody wins equally but obviously grinders are rewarded more because of their individual volume. Volume spikes up then drops away straight after the happy period. Might be tricky to work into the challenge system.

SNG Prizedrop - Similar to the cash game promo but in SNGs. A set number of prizes will be given away during the day in random SNGs. Could build liquidity into the higher games on days where the prize is a 100euro cash prize. For example, they only get chance to win that in 10e+ SNGs; where a 10SNG ticket can be won in 1e+ SNGs.

In The Money - Whenever you get in the money, there is a spinner which will double or triple the prize pool a % of the time. Rewards grinders more but does it really kill off recs quicker? maybe they play better because they want to get ITM. Very enticing knowing there is a chance you could triple the prize; something extra to look forward to in every SNG you play. To balance between stakes, maybe the % chance of double/triple decreases the higher stakes you play. More thought needed for this one.

has anybody pointed out to the people responsible for the unibet client that the client completely crashing/freezing when you disconnect makes it hard to reconnect/relog in time? (this happens sometimes.)

also, important buttons disappearing when you disconnect for a split second doesn't help (only way i've found to stay in the hand is to wait for the timebank button to pop up, then buttons usually re-appear)

one more thing: can one hide the milestone counters somehow? seems like a waste of computing power, and it's unpleasant/distracting

What stakes do you play?

Welcome back. Thanks for confirming the results.
Cheers.

Time for a break from Unibet, can't run much worse in HU SNG right now. Also thanks to the experts that played push or fold instead of donking in the Banzai games instead.

Almost any promotion is going to benefit players that play more often. Is that not kind of the point of them though?

I think leaderboards still have a place but you have to create a formula that levels the playing field between someone that plays 1000 SnG a month and someone that plays 50. Win/cash percentage could be taken into account but that benefits the players the play less SnG ultimately.

Hello Andrew,

Could you please change 1 x €4daily4 to 2 x €2Mtt
Alias: Alias_

Alos, i tried to register to a "UO €1 turbo" tournament with multiple buy-in but it doesn't work with a €2 UO ticket. It's weird because it used to work in the past: you could buy 2 buy-in for those tournaments with a UO€2 ticket.
The only options the program suggests is cash or a €2mtt ticket even though i have €2UO tickets in reserve.



Thanks for looking into it

a leaderborad no matter of what section of holdem is , is not benefic at all : tournamnets leaderboard , sng leaderboard , cash games both formats will have only grinders .

for example is one polski a*****ki this guy is everywhere no matter of what leaderboard is.

so the promotion must be benefic for everybody not only for leaderboards grinders

Hi Andrew

Glad to hear you're better. Can you please change the following for me:

1 x €100UK to 3 x €25UK + 6 x €4UK + 1 x €1UK

1 x €2S&G + 5 x €1S&G + €1UO (just expired) to 3 x €2MTT + 1 x €2UO

As I'm hardly going to be able to play until after Nottingham now can you please also extend 3 x €4UK for a bit. Thanks.

This has to do with your 2MTT ticket expiring sooner then you UO2.
Solution; temporary reg with the 2MTT ticket for a tourney thats not starting anytime soon, then use you UO2 ticket for the UO qualifier, then unreg the "temporary" 2MTT and you have that back in the account, while playing the UO with you UO-tickets

it has to do with the multi-buyin stuff, which automatically selects the tickets wich expiring the earliest, but the solution is above
