Come on @DaVitsche no one thought to put the blame on you for the delay, I'm pretty sure. Actually I, as a veteran in the leagues, should have asked you during a stream earlier, not waiting till today. Not checking your twitch channel for days is a big mistake. I thought that you are in Vegas and @Leo-Unibet on vacation and this was the ony reason to make few posts. Also I'd like to say Thank You for the great opportunities you are presenting to me as a MTT player by this promotion. It's not only the monetary value(although I'm + €600 )... It is the great competition always quite entrailing from the start till the 10th tourney finish. During the Saturdays when there is a League I play only at Unibet and only in the league's tournaments. No other way around as the games are getting very tough and the points needed for 1st place before couldn't guarantee you 3rd now. ...Everyone is solid 😃

The last choice if the problems persist and you couldn't or don't want to change the ISP with one that doesn't block the site(s) you want to visit or even worse - the poker client is VPN. This is my last consideration as it's costly. However when it comes to such things as internet privacy and security no compromises should be made. I've used to connect to every site using IPv4 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 until my ISP changed something and the Unibet servers became unaccessible. I could visit the site, but the poker client won't load(white screen). At first I used some free VPN to login and then turn it off until I opened the site seeing some promo in the lobby and forgetting that the VPN is still running. Then almost instantly I was logged-off the client and the site and a message " Your account is blocked..." showed. It turned out that the free VPN was changed my location to Algeria... So if there is need to use a VPN make sure it's a good one and offers enough locations, just in case. I'm with ZenMate, as their free browser add-on was very good. The paid version was without an error for 1/2 year, but lately the performance is on free/badly hacked level... The mobile app even doesn't start for since the last update(more than a week). And the desktop is very bad too - the list of the available countries is practically cut in half, as they are temporarily unavailable. So because of these problems I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Make a good research when signing in for a premium account, but be prepared for unpleasant surprises. That's a good reason to sign for a shorter period even when it's more expensive.

If this doesn't help or the procedure seems too complex maybe it's better to try some Windows optimizer application. I used to be fan of TuneUp Utilities back in the day, mostly because of the great Visual Styles they offered. There are many programs that could handle the system processes and tweak the internet connection just with few clicks. Advanced SystemCare is one I've used most recently (had a free copy of the previous version) and is very good in almost all segments, not just internet. There are actually free keys provided by some sites and many of them are good for months. So if you don't like spending money or just want to try before buy, a search for the sites with offers is a good start. As I recollect the one I've used for various programs is russian, but the url is out of my mind.

If there are connectivity issues still after the DNS change this is one of the possible solutions: Over time, your system will automatically cache IP addresses and other DNS results, in order to speed up subsequent requests it makes to the same hostname. This is all good, but at times, bad results will also be cached and therefore require to be cleared from your cache in order to communicate with hosts correctly. Similar to this, your TCP/IP settings may get corrupted, and will need to be reset. To perform this procedure, follow the steps found below. From Windows Start, search for cmd.Right click on Command Prompt and click Run as administrator.In the console, type the following command: ipconfig /flushdnsIf the command was successful, you will see the message "Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache".Afterwards, type: netsh int ip resetOnce done, restart your computer.This will generally make your connection feel a lot smoother, but at times it may be a real trouble-saver.

It seems that there are more "can't login/connect" issues lately so I want to give some connectivity tips for bypassing ISP blocks. At first I posted in an old thread, but the as the name isn't relevant I'll start a new thread. First of all try the simplest method and just change your DNS settings. The method below can be used with any Public DNS servers. In the given example the Google ones are used, mostly because they are suitable for both IPv4 and IPv6. Go to the Control Panel / Settings.Click Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings. Select the connection for which you want to configure Google Public DNS. For example:To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, right-click Local Area Connection > Properties.To change the settings for a wireless connection, right-click Wireless Network Connection > Properties.If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.Select the Networking tab. Under This connection uses the following items, select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) or Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) and then click Properties.Click Advanced and select the DNS tab. If there are any DNS server IP addresses listed there, write them down for future reference, and remove them from this window.Click OK.Select Use the following DNS server addresses. If there are any IP addresses listed in the Preferred DNS server or Alternate DNS server, write them down for future reference. Replace those addresses with the IP addresses of the Google DNS servers:(Google Public) For IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4(Google Public) For IPv6: 2001:4860:4860::8888 and 2001:4860:4860::8844Restart the connection you selected in step 3.Here is a video with Windows and Mac OS instructions:

Confirmed :laugh: Have more, but better post in "sick hands" than spam your blog @Nestabear . I hope you're good, mate 😃

@Patric-Unibet could you credit the tickets to the winners of 29/06 StreamLeague if possible, please 😃 It's almost 2 weeks since then and we're still waiting. I understand @Leo-Unibet and @DaVitsche aren''t always available and have more important things going on lately. Seeing you are online now might mean the wait is over... It's too much of a hussle, I know... here is all the info in one place in case you have the time:

They haven't been online lately @Falkir , so won't be today too, I guess :sad:

@pinki In Bulgarian it's the same, in Russian too and probably in most slavic languages. It's a shame that there are so many usernames by which not everyone could take offense :laugh:

@DaVitsche , @Leo-Unibet should we expect the tickets today? ...or to keep playing qualifiers 😃

Couldn't recognise Wozniacki yesterday. Not a trace of her style after leading 4:0 in the first set. Two consecutive lost serves in the second and I simply stopped watching the match, didn't bother even to check the odds for her then. I guess the life of a newlywed left her without strengths for tennis :laugh: Hopefully Goerges will perform better against Williams today. Either way it's win/win for me, as I picked Serena to last longer in the competition.

Can't believe you picked Wozniacki @AndreiBN :laugh: It might be a quite likely outcome then. On the contrary I often put my trust and money on her ( mainly live). Even took a long shot with these small bets for two of my favourite players :happyshy: Couldn't miss the great odds few weeks ago, too bad I had no freebet then:

I honestly agree with you @piabus . Played ~1K of 1-10 buy-ins and the suckouts, badbeats and losing against 3-2-1 outs over and over again more than 1/2 of the time just doesn't seem right :puking: There is something fishy, for sure, but I suspect that might be the player-pool in general. Maybe the luckiest morons are the regulars, at least at the lower stakes. And I'm not so masochistic to play a game I'm destined to lose: by the rake, by the short levels and the lack of luck and sanity the days I give it a chance. In conclusion I want to state : there is a way to beat these things - hit the big multiplier and win it early on, then just don't bother anymore.

Probably during the weekend @Falkir .

@Leo-Unibet I agree with you about the paying ranges. There is another way to make the pay jumps bigger - taking from the first few places' prizes and distributing it to the next ones. The flaw in the distribution imo is the top-heaviness, anyway, alongside with almost no pay jumps till the FT. Actually the 1st to 3rd and in bigger fields up to 6th receive even bigger prizes than before. There is no very good incentive for laddering and often you play long time for a small % of your buy-in despite outplaying and finishing higher than many.

All is good @RayL , thank you 😃 I would like my MTT results from 1st of March till the end of June, please.

@4soul it's not that the field is so much changed/tougher, but after the new MTT payouts introduced few months ago it's harder for everyone except the biggest crushers to attain good ROI. I personally would get €1600 less yearly if put the same volume like last year. And this is somewhat optimistic estimataion imo. Not getting into account that the variance is way higher when the payouts are so top heavy... I hope @Leo-Unibet would at least make the pay-jumps bigger as @Stubbe-Unibet proposed, as the way it is now doesn't work well for 95% of the players, I'm sure.

What scores :wow: My best result ever reached by the second. Outstanding guys. Congrats 👍 And @DaVitsche didn't believe me when I said "everyone is solid"

I missed the 1st one @traart that's why he did it :laugh: And for the second wasn't quite awake too 🆒 But really he is a good player 👍

@Karmasuper the tickets aren't automatically credited, so have a little patience 😃 @DaVitsche said during the stream that the tickets will be credited by @Leo-Unibet and this probably will hapen on Saturday, as he won't be able to do it yesterday.

@4soul I wanted too because of the points mainly, but somehow managed to screw it up at the end. You cashed because of my miscalcultions, I think. Esp. if you were that guy with less than an ante when the bubble burst. Either way congrats 👍😃 First I was bad-beaten by a limper who afterall called my all-in... Then got lucky with this hand I shouldn't have played even with triple my stack, but had a feeling :Smirk: It was 5-way limped pot I should say :Happyshy: And then was 1 seat closer to BB and to make it worse called with A7s on Tss board after limping behind and the guys' AT held. And the last hand I was dealt 32 and the shortest stack managed to bust me and win 3-way with his auto-shove K4>J9>32 :Laugh: Actually this bust-out is nothing compared to the most bitter one in the Super Double Trouble where I finished 11th when was moved closer to the BB than the other short-stack and couldn't get the €400 :Puking: But as a reminder not to despair, I should point out that after that I had very good deep-runs in UOSs and some majors too for weeks 😃 So @4soul and everyone getting into the madness called MTT grind, be aware of the swings and have a good BRM and nerves of steel :Cool:
