Asserias Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I got the package from the challenges to European open but I can't make it. I don't want to miss my baby's probable birth. Due date happens to be around that time. So what are the options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonusPater Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 @Asserias, welcome to the community! :)We can exchange the package to bonus points, or you can move the package to the event in Bucharest and get the difference paid in bonus points (Bucharest package is worth less than the EO one) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asserias Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 How much bonus points? And if I change then the difference 1k in points? Will I get the travel money? I just read that someone had the same kind of situation for the copenhagen package and he got paid the travel expenses as well, is that the case? Wonderful this community forum. Fast answers. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonusPater Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 You'll get 225.000 bonus points. 100.000 points is the difference for Bucharest package :)Let me know what you'd like, and I'll put the poker team on the case :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asserias Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I'll take the bonus points. I am pretty sure I'll play the package to Bucharest ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcoV Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 @Asserias, we've asked the poker team to exchange your package. Will let you know once it's done :) Former community moderator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCW Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 So is the package from these challenges into a tournament in Europe? All I keep reading about is Vegas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cris1285 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Maybe it was already written in other thread, but i didnt find. In case the leftover EO satellite tickets can be used for the coming regular UO (Bucharest) qualifiers too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is official yet,but rumos says it's probably Vegas.But for sure it will be outside Europe."Europen Open" is a name that somebody from here came up with as he thought the "E" stands for European ,and from there everybody assumed it's a given.But most likely E stands for something else ( my guess is Extravaganza ). We'll find out "soon" . "When things are bad, it's the best time to reinvent yourself" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psrquack Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I think e is for esports. My guess is they don't have the right to advertise the online poker provider Unibet in that country so they found another name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreTBC Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 The E is actually silent in the word preceding 'Open'. Try guessing it now :) Have you read my blog HERE... It's long isn't it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeriPoker Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hello. I was lucky enough to win a Unibet Open package tonight and would just like to ask a question. I know no date or location has been announced yet so apologies if I am being far too hasty. I haven't been reading the community as actively in the past so might have missed alot of info on how these packages work.Anyway, I just wanted to know what are the options available to you if you can't actually make the event? I've seen someone mention in another thread it could possibly be the end of September/early October. This would clash with my sons birthday and I'd feel an epic **** for abandoning my wife and young children on one of their birthdays to go and play poker! (even if it is an absolute dream of mine, to play a UO, not abandon my wife & kids :D). So I'm just kind of worrying about this now I've binked one which is probably me just jumping the gun a bit and being silly by making myself anxious about it. If it hasn't all been worked out yet and there are no options if a person can't make the event yet then just tell me to chill my beans. Thanks.

Livertool Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Congrats for the top 3 position and the package. At least one community member made it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkilfulPoker Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 @NeriPoker you are allowed to postpone your package if you can't make it, as this is larger than usual UO events, there will be some extra, I think you may be able to receive the extra as bonus points if you have a legitimate reason for not attending, as you seem to! @MarcoV or @JeppeL will be able to advise more 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowling3 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 congratulations!I also won a package in Glasgow uk open and waiting to here from Unibet, some sort of message about the win would be great.See ya at the tables late september then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonusPater Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 @Destroyer666, depends on the reasoning. Why would you like to play Bucharest rather than the EO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destroyer666 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I cant go. I have so much things happening in september. If I need to specify more then via pm. I have played ten UO in a row and this time I just cant make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonusPater Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 @Destroyer666 I'll forward the request. Should be okay :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its likey to be vegas and a fantastic hotel. Dont worry guys as its at the end of September and plenty of time to get things sorted.@bowling3 next time at a uk tour dont waste your time on a final table, join us at the fun table at the community event@NeriPoker Its likely to be at the wynn.Thats an experience in itself. If you came in top 3 there is no reason why you cant bring the whole family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeriPoker Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Thanks for the replies. I'll just have to relax and see what comes. Sort it out from there.@bowling3 how did you win your package? Community last longer or did you ship Glasgow event?@pirahn Don't know much about the Wynn tbh. Is it that certain to be Vegas? Hopefully it finishes before the 5th October as that's my son's birthday. Not sure I could justify paying a ton of money for family flights when my likely forecast is a min cash at best!

NeriPoker Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Wish I had seen this before I started my own thread. So OP has the option of 225k points or bucharest + 100k points is that right? Hoping the date doesnt clash with my son's birthday. Not sure I could wing that one with the wife! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikingsAF Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 @NeriPoker there is one more issue. In the T&C of the half billion it says that there is no chance in exchanging or postponing this Las Vegas package when you'd win it there. The prize would go to the next eligible player. If I'd understood you wrong and you won it trough the Sunday final, then just ignore my response :) I see now that the circumstances of ones birth are irrelevant... It is what you do with the gift of life that determines who you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
