nightshopper Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 @testuser1 @JeppeL @Robin-Unibet @Andrew @ReCorpH Hey Unibet people and Community members. I've always been a huge fan of the Pokerstars Big Game, with a Loose Cannon having a chance to compete with poker pro's. So I was thinking... wouldn't it be a nice to have an on line version of that at Unibet? No idea if something like this is possible, but I might as well launch the idea. What about this: freerolls or small buy in tournaments where we can win a seat in a cash game or a SNG with all the Unibet ambassadors, which will be streamed at Twitch. That way one of us gets the chance to play NL100 or a juicy SNG for example with the ambassadors. I'm sure this Twitch stream will get a lot of viewers ;) Let me know what you guys think!

BonusPater Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I like the idea, but will need to discuss it with the poker team and ambassadors. I think a format like this could be cool:4 freeroll qualifiers (password protected and you have to be play with community alias) where the best two qualify for a another qualifier tournament. The best two in this tournament will then get to play a € 400 buy-in SnG with some of the ambassadors :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MathrimC Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 This is very much the online equivalent of an idea that has been proposed earlier: satelliting a community member into a live ambassador sng at the UO.Personally I like both. I think the online version is much cheaper to organize, but the live version works promotionally a lot better, because those UO steams attract more out-crowd, and they get motivated to play on the site if they see another recreational gets a chance to sit there with the pros on television.

Ja-z-Polszy Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Great idea !But in my opinion tournaments with low buyin 5-10€ would be better than freeroll. Veni,Vidi,Vici Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightshopper Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 Personally I agree small buy in qualifiers would be better, because that would make the field a bit smaller. Freerolls with hundreds of people aren't always that motivating. If you make the buy in €4, maybe Unibet can give away qualifier tickets in the ambassador's streams.

BonusPater Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Will discuss it with @JeppeL today. I think we'll go with a 1-2 € buy-in - the buy-in is only meant to keep away all the freeroll hunters :) The ambassadors could be allowed to give away like 10 tickets each.

nightshopper Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 Oh very nice! Great that you guys work on this idea so quickly. I really hope a tourney like this can get set. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonusPater Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Should mention this is not going to be ready soon though, as we've got another ambassador initiative we want to do first (an ambassador and viewers league :) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightshopper Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 I've got time, ain't going nowhere :laugh: Meanwhile I'm looking forward to all the other ambassador initiatives. Keep up the good work :happy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
