    Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

    I've been running these two, there is another one as well, daily omaha tournaments with ante structure as a test.
    I think both of you are pointing out problems with this kind of setup. I was not convinced this was a  super good idea from the beginning, I'm glad you pointed this out so we can adjust back to how it should be. It will be changed back to normal tonight.

    Hi,

    this post will express accumulated dissatisfaction over time. I think it's time to stop tapping on the shoulder and saying that everything is ok. Do you really think Leo will consider your requests positively? I think there is only a shadow of a chance. The funny thing is that every time Psycho79 hardly believes that Leo will make any positive change after his suggestion, but still writes another post because he hopes that maybe something will change eventually. Here the question arises: who is there something wrong with? with Psycho79 who wants to do well or with Leo who doesn't want to listen? This question also expresses my opinion that Leo very often does not want to listen. I agree with many of Psycho79's suggestions and think that they are really good, because what? Because, like Psycho79, I am a regular and I can see what is taking and what can be good for the ecosystem, i.e. for a regular as well as for a recreational player, but these suggestions don't get a chance. Leo, is it a disgrace for you that the idea for a new tournament is not your original idea? Sorry, but I very often don't understand your actions. So guys, you want specific PKO mtt, yes? you want specific rebuy/addon mtt, yes? Responding to your requests, here comes The Boba Bounty, single KO tournament!!! IMO, This is how it looks like. You want to change Boba to PKO, yes? you can prepare for something extraordinary, certainly not that the tournament will be PKO.....I hope I'm wrong. Did I waste my time writing this post? Probably yes, but again I hope this post will make a difference.

    Best regards,

    mamrot_

    OK guys, let's try it as PKO......you guys convinced me to do a try, I really hope you are correct and this change will make Boba fly, it starts tonight

    I will also change the €100 Boba to PKO

    This tournament haven't been the success that we're hoping for, so we decided to remove it from the schedule.
    Quite a few days per week it doesn't even start becaue of low interest, just gives a bad experience for those registered.
    With this, we beleive intrest will be higher on the remaining tournaments in taht buyin ranch, and we can increase guarantee on those.

    If you really liked the Boba Bounty, play it toight for the last time for now..... It might come back in another shape one day

    The Sunday €100 buyin Boba Bounty aern't effected at this moment

    Hi guys,

    I'm thinking whoever populated the client with the numbers for the upcoming UOS got them slightly wrong for E78. It says it's a "mid" stakes tourney, but the buy in is set to €10. I'm guessing it should be a €25? In any case, the guarantee is set to €6000 which for a €10 buy in might be a bit of an overlay, although I'm ever hopeful we might get 600 runners for an Omaha tournament one day 😃 

     


    @Pickleman  what's your alias ? suprise on the way :-)

    From tomorow the superqualifiers for Neptune will start 10 min earlier, and the main tournaments will start 10 minute later., meaning 19:20 & 20:20
    This is done so we're sure the superqualifiers are done before the main tournament starts.

  6. Over the upcoming days you will find a different payout structure on the progressive bounty tournaments. To make the pay difference between the winner and the
    runner-up a bit smaller, the 1st and 2nd place will be paid out quite simular in cash , heads up will be played for winning the bounties left.
    We do this change because we don't beleive the reward of winning a tournament should be so much higher than being second, as it had been until now.

    Some feedback about UOS8 for @Leo-Unibet :

    - 3,5 weeks of running time was just too long, it's real challenge to grind (Mondays also weren't rest days if you got to day2).

    -> Suggestion: Make UOS to run 15 days (+last day2), like earlier versions but make it start on Sunday instead of Monday (Sunday day2's might boost Monday MTTs a little bit as well). Would be easy to have 50k-100k in added guaranteeds, so could make it 500k€ (I would also consider on adding third daily tournament for each level).

    - Buy-ins varied too heavily. No sense on having 25€ freezeout and 1100€ re-entry or 2€ PKO and 100€ R/A on same price level (last case didn't even pay enough for winner to make it one buy-in for last one pre-bounties).

    -> Suggestion: UO Online can run as a separate event. If higher buy-ins are preferred, make them "highroller" events or 200€-300€ events as freezeouts with good satellites. No Sundays when 100€ or 50€ rebuy event runs as low one and later 25€ rebuy event as high one (makes little sense).

    - Satellites could have run alongside events. One thing I have liked on earlier editions that there were tempting satellites on running events / next day or next Sunday events and you could play Unibet only while playing UOS.

    Suggestion: Different color and 5-10 seats guaranteed for next day / Sunday events would be great.

    - Current point system is flawed. Having to calculate top17% positions each time is annoying. It also creates double bubble effect where like when top53 is paid either about 48 or 58 places get points, which encourages heavy stalling. Especially when it is 5+ places more who get points, profitability of early stalling becomes quite high.

    Suggestion: Either make it so that ITM places get points, or better even make it so that each player gets points. Problem with earlier leaderboards (and partially this one) was that top33% or top50% getting points made late regging and stalling to reach that topXX% no-brainer. If everyone gets points, that incentive is greatly reduced as finishing 40/100 and 60/100 makes little difference ( instead of huge difference if top50% gets points). In short: minimize artificial bubbles.

    - Day2 should always be ITM. 

    Suggestion: Add roughly 30 minutes of playtime for re-entry MTTs for day1 and 60 minutes of playtime for R/A MTTs for day1. These two have more chips in play so they won't reach to ITM as quickly as freezeout MTTs. That timeshould be enough for them to reach ITM.

    There could also be few more deeper 2-day events, especially on Saturdays.


    Thanks @Farseer  for taking your time sharing your thougts, very good inputs.

     

    - 3,5 weeks of running time was just too long

    Under normal circumstances I would agree, but this time when so many players were stucked home due to covid-19 it was really good.

    We're in the planning of UOS 9 and I can inform you that it will be shorter next time. But 24 days might come some time in the future.

     

    Buy-ins varied too heavily.

    Agree! Doing these really high events like $1,100 and €300 and including them into the leaderboard was not optimal, we looking into doing changes for upcoming series.

     

    Satellites could have run alongside events. One thing I have liked on earlier editions that there were tempting satellites on running events.

    We always try to maximize the guarantees in all individual tournaments and that all add up in a nice total series guarantee, we plan our qualifiers so quaifier tickets can help us meeting the guarantees, hopefully with as little cost as possible. Tempting satellites often means quite high unnessesary cost for us 😃 

    We try to avoid that, not always, sometimes it's good, but for most  of the time.

     

    Current point system is flawed. Having to calculate top17% positions each time is annoying. It also creates double bubble

    It's maybe as you say better to give all ITM points, we shal lgive that a thought

    Day2 should always be ITM.

    The plan/calculation is that finisching day 1 should mean all remaining players are ITM, you guys play to slow 😃 Just kidding, seen the issue and will try to make day 1 a bit longer so all tournaments are ITM when day 1 finishes, quite a few are though, but as you say, all should be.

    Yes please, either add an extra one or make the initial MTT start 1-2 hrs earlier. 

    I don't really want to start a new thread but i'd put my thoughts about MTT starting time here.

    Never understood why the starting time for MTTs didn't change once the USA wasn't in the pool anymore.

    I mean a rec doesn't really wan't to play MTTs that for example start on Sunday and can go up till 03:00-04:00+ on Monday when they start work at 06:00. And this also applies to all the other week days. Also why the Biggest MTTs start running on Sunday/Night and not on Sunday/Afternoon or Saturday?

    In my opinion we would see more players taking a chance in the Bigger MTTs if they were to start 1-2 hrs earlier.

    I've felt this way about MTTs for a while now, i feel like poker companies should send a questioner to collect data from the customers and adjust to the feedback.

    Just putting it in the out there to see what happens. :happyshy:

     

     


    Hello @FreedoM  . It's a thin line, starting them to early , you will miss out on those tat want to other stuff Sunday afternoon, starting to late some might get turned downed by how late it will be. I think we have good start times, normally if you playing the late ones after mid night you will find yourself in the money

  9. You will find some small tournament changes and some new tournaments from monday 25 Maj.

    After lots of requests to bring back the €25 Neptune, we have decided to add it to the schedule again with a €10,000 GTD. This means we'll remove the €100 Netpune 20:10 CET for the time being (it hasn't been performing great recently)

    We also adding to the schedule a daily €50 Bounty tournament, "Boba Bounty" at 19:30 CET
    On Sundays that bounty tournament will be a €100 buyin with a bit higher guarantee.

    We also added a €1 tournament, called "Jungle Jane In The Sky" with €250 guarantee running daily at 22:30  

    You can find all new tournaments already now in the client.

    Enjoy!

    Since we can't see any live events running in a near future due to covid-19 we decided to pause/hold the DSO qualifiers online.


    All players that had any active DSO qualifier tickets in their account will today get refunded that value in cash.


    There are some exceptions, those that tomorrow still have DSO tickets in their account, just PM me and we look into your case.

    hey stubbe.

    i won 1 ticket on june the 1st 2019 and as you can see.

    i won another one on my old account (i accidentally picked germany as my country) and was then told to reopen another account and i got all my tickets transferred to this one.

    i can provide you details of the old account per pm if you need them. the transfer of tickets and balance happened end of march /early april last year.

    actually winning the UK-tour seat pointed out my regsitration mistake i think


    Hello @Karakrugraju  Please PM me your issue with the account retails and I will have a look at it

    Hi @Leo-Unibet, can you please change the 5 euro R/A supersets for 25 euro tickets into 2 euro R/A, or 5 re entry or even freezout?

    Investing 15 euros on average for a change to a 25 euro ticket is not appealing to anyone, and I think a lot of people will avoid those. I personally won't play them and if I don't get tickets for a reasonable price I will start skipping events.


    Hello @Hotzonicu  Thanks for your suggestion,. We will for now keep the Superqualifiers as they are. /Leo

    Finally it's here, bigger than ever, Unibet Online Series Vlll

    We've done a small changes this time, for example we have included the three major live events and made them online events; Unibet Open Tallinn has gone from IRL to URL with a stunning €200,000 guarantee, and we have transformed DSO and Unibet UK Tour into online events as well. Players who have tickets to those live events will be given tickets to the online events. Information will be sent to players with tickets.

    The most significant change of them all, the series now have a total guarantee of €1,000,000. We've also added another €5,000 to the overall leaderboard, so the total leaderboard value is now €30,000

    You can find the schedule HERE!!!! 
    More info here, http://unibet.me/UOS_Information

    Good Luck to you all!!!!
