Thank you for the clarification @Stubbe-Unibet two UDSO main entries was most likely to be what I would have opted for, even if I had other options. 

Do they have to be used for the same festival? Or, can the second one be used for another one? How would I go about arranging this, when I've considered the best one(s) to attend? 

Thank you for sorting this out for me @Stubbe-Unibet! Indeed, this ticket is needing to finally be used, lol 

I saw you mentioned on another thread that a Unibet open stop is not looking likely to be had in 2024 😕 so, is it an option to split this ticket into two main event entries for the UDSO, for example for Sanremo or Malta? Also, is it a potential option to have it exchanged to the equivalent in poker points, it was something that was offered in the past, so wondering if it is still applicable. 

Based on what the options are, I will use the ticket accordingly 🙂

Hello @Stubbe-Unibet, you're likely the person to address this to. 

Could you please extend the 1.1k ticket that I have? It expires in a few days and I'm not sure if I'd be able to commit to Bucharest yet, having been on two holidays and two weddings already this year.... 

Thank you in advance

@4MinMiler can't say what the setup will be just yet, but there'll be two more community leagues this year! Both an autumn and an Xmas league 🙂  Autumn one likely quite similar to the summer one. Xmas one will be quite different with both prizes and schedule.

Thank you again for organising the summer league, it was fun to participate in it, even though I didn't come anywhere near the pri£e$. 

My only feedback and recommendation for the next leagues is to do with the schedule.  Instead of having tournaments on Saturday night, could we instead have them on Sunday? Something like 

Tuesday

Wednesday 

Thursday 

Sunday 

Or even 

Monday 

Tuesday

Wednesday 

Thursday?

The days are based on an old vote, so it should be the ones fitting the community the best. But I hear what you're saying. Problem is we need at least 30 tournaments for this kind of league, so there's a bit of a skill aspect - using the tournament € payouts makes it quite a high volatility format.
Then we can run more tournaments each day or run the league for longer. The latter is not great, as it's already quite a lot with 4 weeks. 3-4 tournaments per day is the only real alternative, and then only running the league on week days. Problem with that solution is that I want to keep it really casual friendly and multi-tabling 4 tables is far from that, so we'd need to have the first game start around 18:00 CEST and last one 21:00, which isn't great for people with kids.

Curious to hear what others think.

NB this league schedule won't be changed, but could change it for future ones.

I suppose there isn't a format that will fit everyone's needs and wants and such is life, after all.  One thing to consider is to have the leaderboard work slightly differently, in order to give the people that can't play as many tournaments a chance of participating. 

For example, I take part in a weekly pub league, every Tuesday. Each league lasts 13 weeks (quarter of the year), and points are given out based on the final table finishing positions - 100 for 1st, 80 for 2nd, 70 for 3rd, 60 for 4th etc.  There are normally 25 or so runners, so about 1/3 chance of FTing, and getting points.

The way that the league in question works is that it takes into account the best 10 results of the league, from the 13. So you could technically miss 3 weeks of the 13 and still be with the same chance to cash in the league as someone who goes every week. 

In that sense, something that could be done is a league format with a minimum amount of tournaments played (say 20), and points being attributed based on the finishing position / field or the euros earned in the tournaments.

Just my two cents on the format, will try to squeeze in as many tournaments as possible for it. 

I like this league format promo and would like to participate but the only feedback I have is that it's not ideal to have tournaments take place on a Friday and/or Saturday night. Tend to personally keep those times for non-poker related activities like socialising and spending time with the mrs... 

 Unibet Open Bucharest was just announced and I'm excited and looking forward to hopefully being there. The one and only Unibet Open which I attended so far was the UO Malta 2019. I hadn't qualified online and took the solo trip to try and qualify there but lost in both satties. 

This time round I'm making a more financially sound decision to only attend if I qualify for the package. Well, not entirely true, as I do still have a 1,100 euro ticket that I won over a year and a half ago, but haven't used so far. So that ticket will be used as my plan B, if I can use it there,  should I fail to qualify. 

There are a number of tickets in my account which I'm looking to put to good use for the UO qualifiers, around 240 euros' worth at the moment.  The good thing is that there is plenty of time during which to qualify, and one would need to play on average of about 9 finals, in order to qualify (2000/230), so perhaps that should be my goal , to play 9 250 euro finals by then and hopefully cash in at least one of them. 

As the title would suggest, I will also be attempting to qualify to the Supermoon event each month and hopefully have some cashes on there too. It's a fun tournament 🙂 For the supermoon, firstly my poker points will be used (80 euros worth) and then will use the ~1160 bankroll for playing it, but always qualifying for less, otherwise I won't take part. 

Aiming to play on Wednesdays, Sundays and maybe some on other days during the week, so likely to try and update this blog once a week on a Monday  

Hello, I was supposed to get 60 free spins for Money Train 3, for the completion of the 5th level of the March mission but these don't appear to have been credited. 

I did contact live chat about it a few days ago but haven't heard anything since. 

Could we have them manually applied? Thanks in advance 

You lot must play poker a hell of a lot because it's been well over a year since my last one and I thought I played a lot! 😂

Apologies for this. Unfortunately not the first time it happens, as mentioned earlier in the thread. We'll make sure to really stress this in the specs next time: 

Flip game to be available in client 24 hours after promo is over

 

It is unfortunately no easy task to enable the game again, so I've given you bonuspoints instead 🙂 

Thank you for sorting me out with some bonus points, I'll have to try and luck my way into a €2k package some other time 😂

I'll maybe try and use my tokens more often during the promo, too. Though it would definitely be nice if the promo lasted until the specified date, of course. 

I may be one of the rare people that likes accumulating these tokens as I find that too often I am disappointed on the promo if I just open them daily. Like I can have three bad flips for 2-3 days in a row which would discourage me from even collecting them in the first place. On the other hand, accumulating them like I had done word mean that I open them at once and inevitably there will be some sort of a prize at the end of it. Just my take on it, though.

Oh that's right.  @GR1ZZL3R is correct. I should have read further on the terms...

• Tokens can be accumulated but will expire on the 26th September 2022 at 23:59 UTC.

 

So you're flips should still be there @marto

Aye, I thought they should as well but I can't see them on the client and can't use them etc

🙁

Thanks for the link... I only checked the promo from within the poker client itself I don't think I went on the promo page itself once during the time it ran 

I do believe there was a mistake on what it said on the client itself but I guess I can learn from this and not keep them until the last day too 🤐😬

Hi, 

I had checked the promo section a few times during the promotion and I do recall that it stated that it would end on 27th of September, at 1am GMT. I logged in today and could not find any sign of the promotion on the client or on the promo banners.

I had accumulated 70 flips which I was going to use today, on the last day on which I could obtain flips etc. 

Was the promo removed a day early by mistake?

Horrible how little Unibet staff is present solving these problems. They need those firefighter type of bells where they can come to work when something like this happens.

Already tried support staff, they couldn't give me confirmation whether tournaments would resume suddenly or continue to be paused forever.

Well most of the Unibet staff is based in London, Malta and across the Scandinavian countries, if I remember correctly and this happened well outside of business hours for all of these locations. 

I work for a global company that has workers across the globe and even we have issues when our website or platform goes down, if it does so outside of European hours, as most of our developers are based in Europe. 

Tourneys will be cancelled, most likely. I think it's impossible to re-organise all the people playing all of the tournaments and tell them "it will restart on such and such date and time, please log in to play then". Of course not everyone will be available to play every night, just because you played on Wednesday night doesn't mean you are available to play on Thursday night at the same time etc

Can I assume to receive a payout from aprox. 200 EUR in line with their cancellation policy? Because this sucks.

Based on the ICM result you have 27.8% share of the prize pool, according to ICM https://www.icmizer.com/icmcalculator/#PUWH 

Overall prize pool (minus bounties) is €506.95. So your share would be 0.278 * €506.95, or €140.93. then, you add your head value on top, as that gets added to your prize pool in line with the disconnection policy so it will be €162.18 

I think my calculation is right but feel free to correct me if needed

Well everyone is stiing at my table and thats 6 out of 18 left........if i go bed they then start and say tuff luck

If there is a technical issue going on, it is likely not going to be resolved until the morning when most people will be back to work. Maybe they have some people working on call but the fact that we haven't had an official update on here yet makes me think that this will not be resolved tonight and it will be a cancellation and refund kind of job. 

I hope you won't stay up all night with the hopes of this being fixed, only to be left disappointed and tired 😩

Are they going to restart the Titan????

or do we just sit here waiting?????

It will most likely be cancelled, same as all tournaments. Refunds will be done in line with their disconnection policy that was already shared on this thread 

It wouldn't make sense for a restart to potentially happen at 3 am where only one of the remaining players in the mtt is online and able to capitalise on the situation, blinding out everyone else that's left in the tournament. It sucks, I know, but it's the best way to do it I guess

Thank you for that, it helps. Sucks for not being able to finish the games, of course, but these things happen with technology I guess. 

Computer technology failing from time to time makes me sleep better at night, knowing we are not yet close to fighting off terminators for survival on the planet

Anyone in the 20nl banzai? 😛 or multiverse

was headsup in 3 hexapros and itm in a satty going for the top two tickets when it stopped loading 😞

Was playing four tables, 3 hexapros and an MTT and the site just suddenly stopped responding, as if I was offline with a "Disconnect detected, attempting to reconnect" message....

Tried accessing via mobile on wifi and mobile hotspot and the app isn't even loading up on either connection. Sucks because I was ITM in the MTT and going for the highest ticket it offered 😞

Hi,

These tickets will not be extended. You've had them since the end of January 2022 and €10 UL sats run nightly so you've had more than enough time to use them.

Hi, I've got a few of these tickets that are due to expire in the next day or two. Sadly won't be able to play much today or Saturday - going to the Arsenal vs Sevilla match - could I possibly have them extended by a few days? 

Will keep a closer eye on them in the future and will grind towards a package hopefully 

Thanks in advance 

@dJ_b0rG I saw this as well. 

I am curious about whether or not non-Belgian residents will be able to participate in this tournament, or is it specifically for the Benelux region? Apologies if it's a nooby question... @Andy-Unibet? 

As title says, hopefully I don't get in bother for accessing for a brief moment via a work provided VPN. I wanted to hop on during my lunch break and have some cash hands like a proper degen that I am but forgot to disconnect the VPN first.

The location should be US, for the VPN itself, so not sure why this allowed me to connect in the first place
