Makes sense to have a €25 an hour or so after every €5 where feasible.

Yeah this is best.

IIRC, there is also a €5 pre-qualifier 15 minutes before the Saturday Stack starts which doesn't have another €25 for the winners. So if you win you have to wait until the next week to use the ticket or use it in that €25 that starts like 2 hours after the SS (which could be removed if you use the suggestion below). Could also add some €1 earlier too to boost the €5 pools.

Maybe something like this:

CET
13:30 €1
-
14:30 €5
14:30 €1
-
15:30 €5
15:30 €1
-
16:35 €25
16:35 €5
-
17:35 €25
17:35 €1 LAST CHANCE
-
18:00~ €5 LAST CHANCE
-
18:30~ €25 LAST CHANCE
-
18:45~ €10 LAST CHANCE
-
19:00 €10 FLIP QUALIFIER
19:00 €100 Saturday Stack


Ends up being similar to the way you have the Sunday Entitled setup but only for a Saturday.

I really dig this KO promotion for this month, it's a good one. I've got no time to participate myself which is a shame, but just wanted to compliment.

Any news on an online tournament series? Unibet Open Online series? I still think it'd be a great way to boost numbers and can't think of a real downside. I guess setting the gtds could be a bit difficult, but still.

Yeh I think having a tourney series on unibet would be amazing

I don't think they'd need to set the GTD's to high

Like have a few €10 with gtds from €750 up to €2000, a couple of €25 and €50 events with €1500 upto €5000 gtds and then run a big €100 main event with €10000 and run a €10 mini main alongside it. Of course add in a few well structured events with buyin's from €1-€4 for the microstakes players

Like it wouldn't have to be a massive series with giant GTD's imo but would give the site an idea on what types of tourneys they could start to push the gtds on and then they could maybe add more larger tourneys to the schdule

All of this is good. I agree with you that a 100 buy in could reach a 10k guarantee with the right line up of satellites
Unibet does offer MTT series like the bounty badlands this month with a leaderboard and they've had a couple of other series called "the 27" but I don't they've been over the top enough.

I really like your idea about a major and mini running concurrently. Unibet could even add a 10k bonus if a player wins both and a 2.5k bonus if you finish in the top 3 of both.

If you look at the numbers of players in each buy-in level currently I don't think you'll get the GTDs you're after without them getting the rebuys in place. Aside from freerolls you rarely see 100+ players in any MTT other than a €1 so getting 10k at the €100 level is going to be very difficult even with Sats. The Sats would have to be generic as well you wouldn't want people to have leftover tickets for a series that is finished so you then end up with people using the tickets for non series events.

I'd love to see a MTT series as well but I imagine the focus is on the live events and pulling players from those sat systems into another system is just going to hurt both the series and the live event. It could work after the last UO event of the year but there are still UO UK events running until December. September or November look like the best time periods to run a 2 week series.

You -could- run big GTD events if you decide to run no/low value promos that month and just take the money you would spend on promos and use it as an overlay buffer but I expect this isn't going to happen either because the general ethos you get is that Unibet likes to give the money back to the losing players not give winning players even more money

Aside from all the above doom and gloom, +1 to a MTT series

Thanks Chuck for liking Bounty Badlands.

In August during the popular event in Brazil and in September we will have MTT focused promotions, which will be quite appealing I believe. We value what you guys like to see. Although I cannot promise all the points made yet, I can tell you that we are working towards the mentioned points!

Is it possible to add a 6-max €25 MTT with a decent structure (like the Daily 25) between 19:00-21:00 CEST? The Daily 25 Deepstack and the Daily 25 always get loads of players.
07-05-2016 , 04:31 PM
Thanks UnibetRep, Satellite changes look good.
07-09-2016 , 12:54 PM
10% fee in the "last chance" Sats seems a bit high especially since there is also a fee for the target tourney. Its 10% for the 1.5k stack and 3% for the flip. So should ideally be 5% for the 500 stack.

Qualifier schedule was better today though. Cheers.
07-10-2016 , 08:17 AM
Dear Unibet,
i think it would be good to add at least one more €1 Bounty tourney, there is currently only one at a somewhat awkward time (14:00 CET)
and the cheapest ones are probably the most popular ones

We found it fair to decrease the flip, but for the last chance there are other option if you prefer. We added it mainly for the demand of last minute games and it is priced in similar fashion elsewhere.

Any plans on improving the evening schedule? As a Canadian with a day job, I don't find there being enough games at 8 pm est (1 am est) til midnight.

A lot of our players are from European time zones, but I will look at the nightly schedule soon, any suggestions let me know

Cut a deal with a Casino in Montreal and run online sats to a Unibet Live Event there. #wishfulthinking

I have just finished playing the €1 Deepstack bounty Tourney (started at 14:00 CEST).
I should've probably noted before entering that it is a deepstack (and I don't like playing those), but still, after 3.5h of playing I think that deep structure and 8 min levels definitely do not suit this bounty tourney.
Also, one has much more probability of winning more even on NL4 cash in that amount of time. First place will win probably about €15 max with the first prize and bounties combined.
So perhaps it would be good to reduce levels to 5 mins (or 3?) for such a low entry-low reward tourney.
thank you for your consideration.

The problem is bounty distribution %. If it was 50-50 then there would be a lot more to play for in the bounties later in the tourney. The other way to do it would be to make the buy in 75% prizepool and 25% bounty to start so there was more to play for at the final table.

Players wanted a deepstack bounty game with good structure similar to the higher buy-ins with a €1 buy-in, therefore we didn't make it a faster structure one. However we might add some other ones in the schedule at some point with faster structures.

By 50-50. Do you mean from the bounty 50% goes towards your account and 50% goes on your head?

Yeah, we talked about it in a thread on the Community forum suggesting the possibility of changing the payout structure either when you earn a bounty or prizepool/bounty when you enter the other week.

Edit: It was a month ago.

Remember that indeed and have it on the list to consider and if implemented need some changes in how we name the different bounty tournaments to make it obvious I think.

Happy to let you guys know, we will run a leaderboard MTT series promtion from 5th - 21st August.
The top 100 players on the leaderboard will win prizes, with the top 5 players receiving some pretty unique travel experiences (1st place will go jaguar tracking in Brazil).

Amazing promotion Damn, I want to go Jaguar tracking.

Quick question: do you get any points for the 0€ buyin tournaments? If so, at least the leaderboard formula doesn't work (since you can't multiple by 0), right?

Disclaimer, I'm so bad at math that this might be a very stupid question.

Anyway, massive thumbs up!
