Hi @Leo-Unibet
I've just been checking my chat records with @Dowelikestew and I believe he won UK Tour packages on 13th October, 17th November and 2nd March. He got in touch on the 18th November (presumably to support) to ask for one buyin to be transferred to me. He followed this up with you on 6th December and you said something like I just needed to mention it to you, but neither of us have had any actual confirmation of what has happened.
As he played one in Manchester this should mean that he should have one remaining, which he'll be using in Newcastle, and I should have the one he transferred, which I'd also like to use in Newcastle. If it hasn't been transferred then he should have two at this point.
I'm guessing you'll be busy with the MK event this week so there's no hurry but I'm sure you understand that I'd like to get it pinned down when you get the chance please. Cheers.
@ChapInAChair It'scorrect, he has transfered one to you and has one left for him self, see you in MK

Couple of things. The first one is @Dowelikestew transferred a UK tour buyin to me in December but I didn't get confirmation. Can you please let me know if that's gone through.
The second thing I that I'm unable to make Milton Keynes as I'm out of the country. Can you please postpone to the Newcastle leg? Thanks.Hi @ChapInAChair , you frind won a package for Manchester that he used there, he also won a package for MK, if he wants to transfer that package he has to contact us personally.

@triceraatopp wrote:Hi!
I have a couple questions about my uk tickets, i should be holding 2 packages, one for milton k and one that i won the 5th january that was said to be for manchester bcs the stops clear yet. I wounder, am i able to win another packages for milton k or does the "manchester" packages count towards the max 2/stop?
Second question is that i was going to glasgow in july last year but unfortunatly had to late cancel, I should therefore still have a unused seat ticket, can I use that for milton k or other stop this year instead?
Thanks :)

Hi @Leo-Unibet and @Patric-Unibet
Due to my work pattern (4 on/4 off) several of my UK50 tickets will expire without me having a chance to play them.
Could you extend them until Saturday 11th of May please and that will definitely allow me to play them without having to ask for more extensions.
Cheers /html/images/emoticons/Asset1.png
Hi @Leo-Unibet and @Patric-Unibet, please extend two of my UK50's until 11th May
Thanks 😉
Hi @radge1 The tickets are valid until 18/03/2019, contact me again the week befire expire date and I will extend them

Anyway, Im not blaming you in any way, Im very sure you tryed to make it as good as possible with the road the company want to take. Hopefully we will see more freezeouts mtts to accompany the changes since that is known to be the most rec friendly format, especially together with flat payouts. :)
@triceraatopp So....the good thing is that we already run more freezeouts than rebuy/reenter, on the top of my head it's somewhere in the range of 62-38 percent :-)
Really? That are not bountys? Thats good :) Would be awsome if it was even more :)

@XY wrote:Don't understand all this discussions about something that will be apply for sure,and I am sure decision will not be changed.
I understand "regular grinders" and their dissatisfactions,but poker at Unibet was never meant to be for players that takes game "professionaly",or/and live from that.Schedule and games are setup for recreational players,you can see that by buy-ins.
Overall buy-in per day is under 500€...
Does someone who takes games professionaly,or want to, can live from such a schedule?
How much of you,"regulars",plays only on Unibet?
I expected this change as copy/paste continues,but think this decision is something that is pleasent for majority,over minority.
Hey @XY I can ensure you that this payout distribution isn't any copy/past, it took me a good Christmas holiday to have it finalized as I wanted it, quite a of blood sweat and tears. I think it will benefite all player types, now we're giving the not so lucky players a chance to survive a bit longer before churning, that's good for all player types.

@triceraatopp wrote:@Caladrias you are only looking at the top 3 and yes they are kept the same, but compare the top 9 or 12 places and you will se a massive difference. And thats why this is a structure that is made to lower edges/ROI.
Hey @triceraatopp , I hope you are fine !
If we're adding like 20% more prizes in each tournament it's a given that some of the payouts will be changed and the money has to come from somewhere.
I don't agree that the distribution is built to take away away good players edge, I'm raher sure you will increase your ROI with these changes.
I'm willing to take a bet on that 😃 check your stats 6 weeks from now and compare it with 6 weeks before teh change, it's a beer on the line 🆒

@Caladrias wrote:@Leo-Unibet, great job on the new spans for the payout slots. Played a few small field MTTs last night, and it was great to see 4 or 5 people ITM where previously that was never possible, only 3 or 6 was an option with resulting big % gaps in amount of players paid out. This was a long needed change, and even though I still bubbled everywhere I really like how it is now. Props Leo for this aspect :laugh:
I also kept an eye on the deep impact again yesterday, and it had a high top prize of €1262 (!!) with a prizepool of €5569. So yes, a rather high amount of entries, but not extraordinary either. This makes me believe the top heaviness of the payouts didn't get affected that much as I think we all assumed here first, which I think we all like to see. The image Leo posted from the bounty tournament, also seems to confirm this.
Off course the money for the extra payouts has to come from somewhere, and it's easy to see this comes from lower mincashes in the new distribution. I can't say I like being paid out less than a buyin as a mincash in bounty MTTs at all... But yeah, I guess it's one or the other if more people have to be in the money. And I prefer a bigger top prize then above a bigger mincash, if I really have to choose. I would also have liked it to be a lower percentage than 17% ITM for sure, but as I said before I don't think it can be as big of a surprise as it's gotta be better for recreational players... Thus, not surprising that Unibet chooses to do this.
EDIT: haven't played a R/A mtt yet. It would be interesting to see how mincashes relate to the buyins there. Gonna keep an eye on that in the next days.
Thanks @Caladrias I really appriciated your post 😃

@GothMoth @Caladrias @Brocky @FeelsBadMan @triceraatoppSome background of the old payout distribution. First of all, before the payouts had way to wide spans (too many players) in the different payout slots.
This sometimes, under specific curcumstances, we could see tournaments where players being paid from 16,5% to as low as 10% . Now we narrow those payout slots down so we can hold the difference of players being paid as simular as possible no matter how many players there is in a tournament. With the new prize distribution we have a much better control of how many players (%) will be paid out. Targeting 17% payout in all situations are in line with Unibets ambitions to care for the recreational players, with the new prize distribution we are doing so without effecting the grinders (players that win a lot of tournaments) by still having attactive top prizes. I know some of you had concerns about uing the new PD on bounty tournaments. I had a look at a tournament from yeasterday
(€400 Shooting Star Bounty) with 128 runners and compared it with a previuos day with 128 players. Below you see the differences, some of the payouts pay out less than the buyin, but all players were paid at least 1,5 times their buyin because of the bounties. I think it's fair/ok, top 6 players got pretty much the same payout as in the old payout. Paying out as little as 10-11% as we did before in some cases was so much 2005. I strongly beleive that these changes, even if not all like them now will be good for all going forward. My strong beleives are that this will help tournaments at Unibet to grow it the future.
The player who will be knocked out as 36th in Supernova on Sunday will definitely be one of the "belivers" after that tournament.I appriciate all your comments and thoughts about the change :inlove:

@comanimal wrote:I get the reasoning behind this (create more positive experiences for more players), but no one plays with the goal of 2x or even worse 1.5x cashing (no recreationals at least). More money up top is always more appealing in my opinion.
Hey @comanimal
You hit the nail on the head, a more positive experiences for more players, after all, poker should be a good experience.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

We will from tomorrow start using a new payout distribution for MTT's.
The old payout distribution was a bit outdated with approx 12% of all players being paid, with the new payout distribution we will have about 17% of participating players being paid, it could of course differs up or down a bit.
We hope you will enjoy these changes as more players will be celibrating being in the money.By the middle of next week all tournaments will be updated with the new payout distribution
Good Luck at the tables!

@sgriff wrote:Hi Leo,
Yes, we are both doing well thanks. Hope you enjoyed Sinaia. It looked a fantastic stop and a really good idea so well done whoever thought of that. I would have tried to qualify but it coincided with a busy period at work.
Yes if you could convert to cash then that would be good. I'm probably not going to attend the UK legs this year. I'm not keen on the turbo structure to be honest. They are more fun to play, but for most players (ie those that are knocked out before the 40 mins levels are reached) they play as a turbo and it's a long way for me to travel just to play a turbo. It's ok if you arrive with loads of tickets, but even then it's got the potential to be a very expensive weekend if several tickets get used. I've been looking out for details of the tour in the hope it will revert to 40 minute levels but I haven't been able to find anything yet.
Hopefully we will catch up with you in Malta.
Regards
Simon
I will make sure you get credited the value. I hope you will make it to some of the stops anyway, the structure for next season aren't decided yet, it leans at us going back to a more traditional blind structure for next year, still, the tournament has to be over in 2-playing days.
Cheers,
Leo

@sgriff wrote:@Patric-Unibet I have a spare UK Tour ticket left over from last year. I think it was a second ticket for when I played in Brighton which didn't get used and I'm pretty sure I forgot to ask for a 2nd ticket to be converted to cash. Please check to make sure I am not overlooking a ticket conversion, but if there wasn't one is it possible to convert it to cash now?
Hi Simon, I hope you and your lovely wife are well.
Aren't you comming to any of the UK stops this season, I can keeep your buyin, but it you want it in cash (since you has 2) I'm fine with transfer you the value. What do you say? // Leo

@KoksiPYS wrote:@Stubbe-Unibet @Leo-Unibet Thanks for listening to the community and one more thing... I know you want to boost the cash games action with this payout structure in the freerolls, but if possible can you make it as it was before, but instead of the 1€ MTT ticket you get a 1€ Banzai ticket and that way more people have a chance of cashing, cause right now the payout structure is absurd , only less then 1% make the money in the 25€ ones and 2% in the 100€ one.
@KoksiPYS As you noticed we want to boost teh cash game by giving out CG tickets, the payouts are as flat I can have them.
After all, the freerolls are for free 😃
