Full justification and key data will be shared, as part of winners announcement.
The winner will get a custom avatar in the poker client (you decide what it should look like) as well as a unique badge on the community.
Additionally, top 3 bloggers will get to play an exclusive €1 buyin tournament with the following prizes:

Breaking Even
What's up! My name is Sam, I'm 35 and identify as a fish. I've played poker since I turned 18 and played professionally for 7-8 years of my adult life (pre solvers). The years in between then and now were spent working as a chef on tour in the music biz (final tour i did was the Rolling Stones) before moving onto films (final film I did was the new Bond) and then COVID happened... I initially went back to poker during the first lockdown with an out of date skillset and a bad work life balance with almost no time devoted towards studying. After a bad run and about a -10k downswing I decided to put a stop to playing and study theory as a hobby until I felt confident in my game again. This blog is being started with the intention of detailing my progress as I work towards becoming a breakeven player and spin up a bankroll for a US trip next year with some banter and strategy sprinkled in. Most of my volume will be in cash with some MTT punts and occasional sports betting. My return to the tables in September started off hot and I even managed to bink a UOS low rebuy for +£1k! Net Unibet winnings (Year): £2390 Net Unibet winnings (Lifetime): -£1188.42 Goals for the month: Quit smoking, Update blog weekly, Play 45k cash hands, No shot taking, HQ Study sessions, Activate rungood VAMANOS!

SNG challenge
Hi, Have been playing semi seriously mtt:s for now, with a 15€ abi. I'm on a downswing for now, and lost the joy to the game for a bit. Decied to find back the joy, and thought that the best way would be to get back to the roots and start to grind the unibet 10€ 5men sng tables. The idea is to study at least 1h/day ranges and other strategies and play also everyday. In the beginning I will Olay only 4 tables at a time since its a bit different and faster poker from mtts. This challenge is following: start bankroll: 200 Games that ill need to play to pass the challenge: 1000 games I know that a bigger bankroll would be better, but if this challenge starts with a 200€ downswing in these games I'll happily stop the challenge. Interested to see what the result will be, or do we go broke before that. we'll see. wish me luck

Fourteen Years Of Heartache In The Microverse, Is The End In Sight?
At times it feels much longer but it is in fact 14 years since I started playing online poker. You'd think 14 years doing something would make anyone recognisable as a cut above the newbies, or fish, or recs, whatever's politically correct to call the newcomers these days, but sadly in my case time has not been so kind. Yes there have been some improvements, I actually call myself a winning player these days, albeit at a very small rate and amongst the lowest stakes it's possible to play at, but winning is winning. I've been a little over 6 years on Unibet, I never tracked my stats, deposited when losing and withdrew when winning, and although the figures are somewhat skewed to a small sample of mainly tournament wins, statistics don't lie, do they? A Little Housekeeping. 2024-04-01 15-11-08.mp4 The frustrating thing today, there always seems to be one, is that though I had the best intentions I'm already falling behind my schedule, loose and fluid though it is. I've not played a hand of poker today but I was playing for an unusually long time yesterday, (thin brag incoming) in the farewell to Ukranians and Bulgarians tourneys, one of which, the UAT version, I won, and cashing in the other, (brag over.) I've also started picking a few horses out here and there, posting them on YouTube, definitely NOT tipping them. That's it for now, updates as and when but hopefully regularly, and good luck all at the tables. Small update: Of course my number of hands played isn't for the full 6 years, only since the Game Lab came in, still a very small amount though.

Baby steps
First of all, you better turn around and never look back if you expect to see and are only interested of following things: -bankroll management -long term grinding -steady updates and stats -learning to be better player But if you enjoy ultimate rec poker from freerolls to highest stakes and/or other gaming you might find some interesting to read from time to time. Naturally, blog competition lured me in (thou it will be sad day for poker blogging if this makes it to top 3 🤣 ) but more importantly i find it interesting, and amusing, to read my own doings after some time as they tend to forget so soon. Start balance as we stand is 0 at all levels, i'll probly wait if bug reports/centroll bring something to start with this week and go from there... Which brings us to lesson number 1; get the value from where it's at. For example daily freerolls are full of players trying to win cent tickets when they could easily skip many levels of grinding simply with detecting bugs while playing and reporting them here. They are not so hard to find, without looking yet still keeping eyes open you can easily spot one from time to time just with playing or using sections of client. Ofc better for rest of us that peeps just don't bother or know to report 😄 Anyhow, like title says, no long term plans or goals but taking it day by day with baby steps. Ofc wouldn't mind if it developes to something greater but honestly that is just wishful thinking for now.

Hexa price
Imo the price is now displayed in worst possible position being under cards. If you are multitabling with phone it is often quite hard to keep up which table has which price. Lots of empty space there where to put it (1,2,3), could be even shown beside cards in sidebar (4) (Beer to first who can remember just by colours what was multiplier)

Adding actual times/dates for expiry of tournament tickets
Hi, Would it be possible to display the actual final time a ticket can be used with both the date and time? I've already made several mistakes due to the incredibly vague 'less than x' system currently used. When I first joined, I misuderstood how long the €5 welcome tickets were valid for and ended up multi-tabling all four tickets (including using one as a flip) at once a whole week before they expired. I've lost another ticket through confusion. And almost threw away several more through flips because: It's not clear that you can book tournaments for after the expiry date. Tournaments often don't show up until 24 hours or less before their start date. So, if my ticket expires at e.g. 10.30pm and the only relevant next tournament in 10pm the next day, I have no way of knowing that without risking losing my ticket or spending silly amounts of time waiting for new tournaments to maybe appear. I can see the purpose of flip tournies if you lack time, but otherwise I'd much prefer the edge from actually playing poker compared to a 1/5 probability of winning with 5/1 returns (not including stake). With those odds it would be quicker to just buy the higher value ticket assuming you play enough games to overcome variance. It would also be amazing to have some way of seeing tournament times a week in advance. It would make planning much, much easier. Apart from this, I'm absolutely loving Unibet. Playing some really enjoyable poker and having a blast -- keep up the good work. 🙂
