The game feels very laggy even with the latest version. And my animations are all turned off as standard. Think its the animation of the cards being laid out on the flop etc that make it feel like its lagging.

2 weeks since last update, not much to share, playing less since the reset as just CBA. Trying to keep my 50NL tiiiickiiit alive but its just a shambles, dropped down to 2 buy ins, then managed to get it above 4 buy ins again and today back down to 2 buy ins. Never get any minute of run good. 1100 flops left to see. 8 buy ins up at 25NL so far this month... still a shambles anyway. Played about an hour today, 25NL/50NL and didn't win a pot bigger than €13.5 🙄 But I did lose KK vs AA, KK vs QQ, QQ vs AA, KQs vs QQ on a QTx-T-T board 🙄 🙄 I literally flop the worst flops ever if I call a 3 or 4bet. I always hit top pair top kicker and what not and then I get sucked in anyway whilst they hold the set of the top pair I hit. All in luck 13-10... oh I had AA vs AA, KK vs KK and AK vs AK and all tied which all counts towards the all ins you win LOL I pay rake on it so unless there is enough dead money in the pot I pretty much lose money on a tie. Shouldn't even be counted towards the wins. Didn't make the last RAKE, GET I had, now on a RAKE 500, GET 50 and 17% in it so far, no idea if I'll go for it, not really pushing tbh. Next one is RAKE 500, GET 100 and then a €20 playthrough from the loyalty scheme. Next update maybe at the end of the month or the end of the year, too fed up writing about the fact I'm too stupid to win at poker.

Passed the 400k hand mark, looking at my results... this is probably a bad beat rather than a brag lol. Not the best start of the month, 10 hands in today and I had AK vs AA BvB 🙄 50NL ticket sitting at €250 and halfway the flops needed (1500/3000) Started playing some 25NL again with my normal bankroll as don't have enough on my tiiiickiiiit to play more than 2-3 tables... Last hand was AK vs QQ and won it... should of been on 50NL!

That's me reached loyalty lvl6 last night as won't be playing any poker today. Been playing my NL50 ticket for last few days and been ok till last night losing 7 buy ins, ticket is sitting at €270 now as failed to win anything yet again. Ran QQ in to AA, KK in to AA, QQ in to AK and lost and every other 3b pot where I hit TPTK or the odd board I trippled off as it was that good for me they all just hit sets. Story of this year, nothing going my way. 👎 Only won AA vs KK but that was vs 50BB stack... and on one table I had AA 4x in 9 hands! (wonder what the odds are for that?) and never got any action lol. Pretty sad going... Wonder what the next 3 months will bring. Pretty fed up with the results to say the least.

Played like 3h of poker last week some day and finished up closing all my tables and then I checked my balance and it was 20p less than when I started, had to double check a few times as thought it was maybe not updating or something 😂

I googled Unibet Bet Slider https://www.unibet.com/poker/poker-features-1.358673 @PurpsCould be a windows thing, still... get the Unibet feature to override it 😀

Making progress with the loyalty points, a good 15k points to go and we are there! (should be easy) Been playing a little 50NL with my ticket and seen 500 flops so far and just down a bit @ €485. Went up to start, then down and then up again to what we have now, small swings. Pretty much the story of my real money bankroll, at this moment I'm up 1 buy in (25NL) for the month, and that's with the rakeback / rewards etc included which is pretty crap. Definitely been playing too many tables (but not too many so I play spewy etc) but just sacrificing that till I get to loyalty lvl 6. I do play 4 tables of 50NL as this gives me more time to think and follow how others are playing, table select etc. Played 105k hands since the reset in July and absolutely struggling to get my bankroll going, highest I got was prob €2,250 and lowest €1,700 and atm we are back in the middle. Will see to get my 50NL ticket cleared with hopefully a profit on it or anything but going broke 😂 Then we will see for the next quarter, hope to stay on 50NL once my ticket is cleared and just play 4 tables and table select. If it doesn't work out then I'm afraid this will be the last quarter I will be putting this much time in poker and prob leave it to just playing a bit here and there at the weekends.

@TimDillon Seems to me it is just an outdated page on the website, perhaps of things that were meant to get implemented at some point, or still will, but have been shoved forward in time (indefinitely). Pretty sure adjustable bet slider is still something they want to get going. Initially I think they were 'against' it as it makes it easier to spot reg/rec but it's so common in the industry and I guess not that all so important. Table layout works but it has its limits, will maybe depends on your screen size and or table size? Mines don't overlap if there is enough space. Make your tables smaller and highlight 4 tables and click on 'current size' to sort it out. I wish it had a better memory option so it would remember where exactly I had my tables rather than the way the system puts them as I have OCD if them damn tables don't touch each other exactly and the size of my screen, I can't live with 5 pixel spaces 🤣 About client version, everyone should always be on the last version as it won't let you play without updating if there is an update.

41,500xp to go for lvl6, will be tiiiiiiight 😅 At 83% of my RAKE 350, GET 35 and that's since Friday so I need to clear another €415 before end of the month which seems reachable but lots of hours needed this weekend as won't be able to play the last day of the month. Been running like a b!tch last few days, bankroll not been affected too much but lost 1-2 buy-ins each day. Hope to run a bit better at the weekend again 😀 Crazy to see that even games like Wordle are getting solved these days 😂

@KoreanwannabeYour main balance is in £ but when you play poker it is in € so money will follow the exchange rate on a daily basis. Therefore that £100 will be worth €105 one day and €95 another day but your main balance will always be £100. If you were to take money out in euros then yes you would win or lose depending on when you withdraw but obviously you can only withdraw in pounds so it will make no difference.

My last Royal 25/03/22 Called a 3B OOP, flop x/x, turn x/c a potbet (lol) and then he overbet jammed the riv, easy call.

@Rushbie Not even a royal flush... 🤣

@GR1ZZL3R rake paid can be tracked by the loyalty system, 1 point per 1c raked or 100 points per €1 Alternatively, if you have a playthrough you can check the % you gained in a session and calculate how much it is worth as per your RAKE requirement.

And that's the RAKE 250, GET 50 cleared! Now on to RAKE 350, GET 35. Need to make this weekend and the next one count as the end of the month is close. Won't be able to play on the 30th as I'll be away to Glasgow to see Swedish House Mafia 😎 70k xp to go, glad I have an extra day on Monday because of someone's funeral... can't remember who 😂

The 8 tabling? Not my preferred amount but I'm trying to get to the next loyalty lvl before the end of this month, I prefer 6 tables when I'm comfy at a stake, if not I play 4 to keep max concentration. I see all my tables on desktop so that's a benefit but it is also the max I can play, 9 seems too much. And it can get a bit chaotic once a few tables get short handed as it speeds up the game. All about practice I guess, you kind of get used to it but the more tables you play, the less you can keep track off how opponents play. Especially important to see how the recs play. Back to 6 tables once this month is over imo.

I'm trying to keep track of my average rake paid and think I pay about €2 - €2.25 per hour per table @ 25NL. As I'm 8 tabling right now I pay €16-18 rake per hour which is quite the number you have to beat just to break even. But that being said, also the positive thing about this is that when I have a break even session I know I actually made €16-18 per hour, just not for myself 😂

Just bought a 50NL ticket for 50k BP... have enough playthrough bonuses to keep me going and this way I get to play some 50NL. Won't be playing on pc as going to stick with 25NL for now and def when I'm multitabling. But I can play this on my Ipad just 2 tables or something and see how it goes. This way I can focus more on table selection, villains and hands etc. Hopefully we won't go busto 🤞 3rd video from Pete Clark is out for who wants to check it out, haven't watched it yet.

I almost had a Royal Flush last week...

Or they are keeping away from us as they don't want anything to do with us. World is a shambles, we have come so far with technology and all round knowledge and yet it is like we are living in the Middle Ages. We shouldn't underestimate human stupidity. It is sad especially for those who can see what the world COULD be like instead of what it is now. And wait till the electricity bill goes up again next year 😅

Gratz on 1st and 2nd scores! What's the cucumber for? 🤭 🤣

Another update before my blog falls off the 1st page of the blog section 😆 Played less than I wanted but I always struggle with that lol, was away to a comedy gig on Thursday in Glasgow and was meant to play Friday but felt so tired as only came home during the night and ended up only sleeping 5-6h. I fired up some tables for 40min and I just quit as I ran bad to start with and my play was just horrendous. Bankroll bit up and down, back around 2k mark after dropping to 1.75k, not sure if I'm dropping the ball sometimes or just run bad. Wish my bankroll would go a bit upwards more regularly or bit more constant. These multiway pots are real killers imo as you can't really bluff in these spots. Currently at 140k xp so 80k to go to loyalty lvl 6, think I average 1500xp/h (8 tables) so that's 54h to go or lets say 3h a day... need to start clawing back before it's too late. Also trying to keep somewhat track of amount of rake I pay, roughly €2.25 per table per hour x8 = €18 per hour. Actually crazy if you see it like that. RAKE 250, GET 50 at 62.5%, 9 days left so easy enough, need another 9-10h ish. After that it is a RAKE 350, GET 35 so probably pushes me for more volume so that's good to help reaching lvl6. An interesting new series from Pete Clarke, a public view on how he coaches people, only 2 episodes in but I find it interesting to see where this will lead to in the end. Watching videos from crushers or high stakes players is nice to learn but watching videos from similar edged or worse players than you (with all due respect off course) can be interesting as well as you can spot the mistakes before the coach explains them and in that way you can kind of judge if your own game is spot on or not. There is a hand where the student squeezes or 3b (cba looking it up lol) and the SB coldcalls and they end up heads up but Pete says these spots can be trivial as they don't happen that often to be important enough to study the spot. Guess he never played on Unibet 😂

Some people are just learning the game though... I mean who checks ATs behind in the BB vs all limps 🤣 And I honestly thought you wanted us to guess villains hand as you didn't include the showdown lol.

Best hand of the day, woo quAAAAds 🥳 Crap hand of the day, CO limps and I flop a boat... not to be yet again...

Played 2h yesterday afternoon and up 7 buy ins, then played 5h last night and down 14 buy ins. (so 7 down overall) Actually unbelievable how spazzy the play is Saturday evening/night, so many drunk? whales wow... and the run bad is amazing as well. Feels like I'm battling a bingo machine at times. Rough guesstimate of how many hands I have to play to reach loyalty lvl6 is prob about 50k, will be interesting to see how this will turn out. So far this month I've played 11k hands, choppy waters so far lol. I like the way I play and I'm about 90% happy with all the hands I play. Only here and there where I think, ok I shouldn't have done this which sometimes cost me a stack and when I replay the hand I realise I should have just folded or given up. Should also battle a bit more for smaller pots. But there are so many weird spots when there are so many recs and bad regs on the tables, so many multi way pots as well making it a real guessing game. Sometimes makes me wonder if making a decent profit month after month (without extras) in such a player pool is actually possible. 100k xp to go to loyalty lvl6 - current RAKE 225, GET 23 at 86%, I'm dreading the next couple of RAKE, GET bonuses I will receive if they will reflect the volume I will be playing this month... RAKE 1000 😂

So that's me finished a weeks of work already after coming back from my week away on holiday. Didn't play any poker that week nor watched anything poker related, didn't have the time really and just good to switch off completely now and then. Came back on Sunday and too tired to put many hours in so didn't make it for my €23 playthrough but that's all right. Currently on this which includes the €50 playthrough reward of loyalty lvl5 (1st step). Have 107k XP atm and kinda aiming to get to lvl 6 by the end of the month which will be a big task as I need about 4k XP a day lol, we will see. Last months profit was €285 (including bonus money) over 25k hands, 3-4bb/100 maybe? Pretty average... Up 5 buy ins so far after dropping 4-5 to start with this month... it's strange when you come back after a week off and you open up some tables, the looks/fonts etc look so unfamiliar for whatever reason but now it's pretty normal again, weird thing. Here some good to be back hands, oh I missed poker 😂 Prob wont be as many posts this month, maybe just some short updates with the progress. Lets hope we make loyalty lvl6! If it goes well I could mix in some NL50 soon 🙈
