We need an issue-free poker client. Until then everything else is just silly.

Sorry to bug with this once more, but could you say whether Manchester will be before or after September 1st? For me that would be enough to decide.

Also, what happens if I have two packages for one event, but the first bullet is enough to make it past the re-entry period? Do I get the second buy-in in cash or am I forced to make another trip to another event later?

Thank you again for your answers in advance

@RayL

Thank you. At this moment it would be sufficient for me to know the month for the Manchester tourney.

Another question. What was the deal with winning multiple packages per event? I remember pumping into that info somewhere but cannot find it anywhere now. Can I have more than one package per event? Can I then choose how many bullets to fire and get the leftovers in cash - or am I forced to use them in future events? What if I have a combination of packages/seats only?

Since I have to travel across the channel I want to be as stacked as possible, but I don't want to be forced for another trip I happen to have one buy-in lying around.

Are the dates for Manchester known yet? If not, is there at least some sort of a timeframe for it already?

I just won a package and contemplating whether to go to Newcastle or Manchester.

Thank you!

In the otherwise great 31 Days of Christmas promotion today's mission was a big mental fart by Unibet's marketing department. You have to get a 10x multiplier in Hexapro. Seriously Unibet, you really want to make your players aware how difficult it is to win big in Hexapro and how frustrating of a pursuit a 10x multiplier can be. A little bit of a psychological eye would be handy. The fact that you make the player anticipate the 10x makes it feel it lasts a lot longer than it actually does. You are essentially chasing players away from Hexapro with this. WP!

OP's question is a valid one. Unibet has burned loads of money for all kinds of poker promotions over the years, yet their poker business hasn't really taken off. I don't know why this is the case but I am sure a lot of potential players are put off by continuing software struggles. You could give a slack for the first few months but now it is what like 3 years after they started their independent poker thing and simple things such as login to the client appear overwhelmingly difficult. And the last update had issues that a straight-minded 5 year old would have spotted in 3min.

I would say that given the resources Unibet has, their good reputation overall (not poker) and the money they put into their poker business it is kinda alarming how bad things are going. Only suckers like myself tolerate the bs for the extra value they offer - and have to offer to keep anybody interested. Others who do not care for a buck are no longer here to care or comment.

Oh yeah the answer. Fire your software provider and take a critial evaluation of how you run your poker operations altogether. It appears that people are focused on complete nonsense like "the multi silly arthur dent experiment" while forgetting to take care of the basics. Like updating that this time the 2nd day of E79 will be played on Dec 17 and not Sep 10 or whatever. Similar simple mistakes are everywhere.

^That is interesting! But not a waterproof way by any means. You could have a separate computer reading the gameplay from the screen and doing its thing in complete isolation of the poker client computer - that Unibet can access to.

@Patric-Unibet

Can you explain how the absence of 3rd party software makes bot detection easier? I would think the opposite is true as players are able to collect data with Holdem Manager for example and bust bots together with the poker site.

As a player at Unibet it is very hard to get suspicious without getting paranoid. Since you can change your alias literally for every game it is impossible to gather meaningful amount of evidence for reporting.

On a different note: Would it be possible to get self-excluded from Hexapro only?

I like the audiovisual design of these games. What I am worried about is bots. It is not difficult to design an artifical intelligence that beats short stack (<=25bb) 3 handed games. Generally these bots get busted by other players more so than the anti-bot team of the poker site. But since Unibet does not provide hand histories and players can change their alias it is virtually impossible for players to bust anyone who is smart about botting. So everything is left purely for the Unibet bot team that is very hard to trust to in technical pursuits like this. I would not trust the anti-bot team of any poker site for that matter.

Hello,

I wanted to give some feedback on the UOSIII but I cannot post on the poker subforum. Reply & Quick Reply buttons are gray and inactive for me for some reason.

Can you sort this out, please.

Thank you for your help!
