I often see hand reviews as a suggestion but when they happen there's hardly any interaction, no hands posted, nobody does any work on the hands, nobody comes with counter points to the analysis posted by switching up the ranges to how they perceive it and then does the work to analyse that. Seems like everyone just wants some sort of "coaching" articles from the ambassadors, which is cool too but doesn't do much to increase the activity on the the forum. And I'm guilty of this too for sure, I much prefer just watching, than being an active part in the study process of other people.  Blogs are cool, my favorites are Stubbe's, MetalWolf's, Broky's and from the older blogs monkeyheaven. Making them more visible to the general populace in some way would be cool, cause right now it's mostly just the powerusers of the forum noticing them. One issue with it is that I feel like forums are not the best blogging medium with the endless pages of conversations (which are great to have and the big plus of forums) intertwined with the actual blog posts / trip reports/ day reports/ hand discussions, it just makes it all hard to read and to get to the juicy bits if you're not willing to start reading 40 pages of randomness. Could have some pinned posts or somewhere on the main page with something cool and recent and relevant from a popular blog, metalwolf's trip reports are a great example of something that would fit that bill, but also good stories like someone qualifying for cheap to a unibet open and posting updates and pictures, maybe incentivise that a bit too with some tickets.    On the twitch front, a lot of content is being made (entertainment, study, leakfinders, cashgames, mtt, leagues, as well as it being a perpetual AMA), more could be done with all the twitch clips made, maybe with highlights, idk, there's a lot of stuff that mostly exists just in the moment, which is fine, but it has more potential. Also this is more of a past tense thing now so maybe not relevant anymore but colabs with other streamers, the way you had a bunch of gamers involved could have had a lot of fun games where everyone plays together, maybe some grudge matches, not just the little coaching sessions that were done in the past (which were cool as well). Similar to how Ian and Lappin had hilarious grudge matches, but like while that's a good colab contentwise (for the people that already like them) it's not very relevant reach wise cause their audiences overlapped completely and not very promoted (they had a bloody live grudge match that was only seen by the few live spectators, the video of it was cool but it was more like a trailer for something that never came )  ...

There are a lot more important things that should be in the news box than it being spammed with freerolls you want a password to. If you want an update if a stream isn't happening follow their twitters, it's that simple. If you don't care about the streams and just want freeroll, well, it's a freeroll for the stream, it's not really made for you, you just happen to be able to get in cause it's so easy to get the password.  As for the streamer letting the team know, when they can they do it, Ian did it today for example. If there's a family emergency of some sort, or something happens in the outside world, you know the outernet, far away from psrquakland, you bet your ass that a freeroll won't be their number 1 priority. Why didn't they get cancelled? Who knows, maybe nobody was available at work at the time to cancel them, or maybe someone tried and the backend didn't really colaborate as it has many times in the past. Ultimately it's just a freeroll, expecting disproportionately high resources to be spent on making the freeroll experience perfect is ridiculous, especially since nobody lost anything due to it.   ...

Lol, please dude, it's not my first time dealing with a troll, this isn't a malfunction of the client and you know it, this isn't the first time you come with silly demands, if it was noone would bat an eye at it, you aren't trying to improve the client in this case, you're just one of those people that gets a kick out of treating people that provide you with a service like you own them, like you should be the center of their universe for your 1€ of rake that you contribute a month.  ...

@psrquack trolling employees constantly is not the communication and exchange of opinion that is encouraged, do you do the same when you order food at the restaurant? cause in that case it's likely that they add some extra flavoring to your food  ... View more

@psrquack Holy dude, are you for real? It's a freeroll! If you really care about your time that much then you're already wasting your time by playing freerolls and should do something else with that time. I would suggest tournaments with a buyin of over 10€, they rarely cancel and seem more worth your time.  ... View more

@startelver wrote: If I get this right @DaVitsche , I received 5 tickets and I already registered for the final . But if I play the daily qualifier I can get another 5 tickets to get a 10k stack?

All the VIP's listed above (people that got in though the 2019 loyalty route) should have gotten their tickets for the final today. PLEASE CHECK IF YOU HAVE, if you're on the above list and didn't get your tickets please contact @DaVitsche on twitch and mention your unibet alias, he will be streaming every day this week. Each VIP got 5 tickets for the final which means you can start the tournament with 5000 chips, and you have the possibility to win 5 more though the 1€ qualifiers that start today to get 10000 chips at the start. Each 1000 chips ticket is worth around 9€ in equity added so very very much worth it for a 1€ buyin, both VIP's and players that don't have tickets yet should play them IMO. The maximum is 10 tickets, these tickets will have no value after the final is over so don't forget to use them. In order to use your tickets please make sure you select all of them when registering to get the maximum amount of chips for them. Since they are tickets, using the + sign on the registration window will give an error, but if you use the dropdown menu you can select the number of tickets you want to use, click the highest number you can click.  Here's an example of how to do that.  https://i.imgur.com/1R4N1EX.mp4 It's fine to register and unregister and register again, as tickets get refunded when you unregister, just make sure you use all your tickets before the tournament starts since if you start the tournament with less tickets you won't be able to use the rest, there will be no rebuys in this tournament.  Currently the tournament is in the process of being set up so don't worry if it appears and disappears from the lobby, it will be there on the 1'st of february.     ...

I don't think rebuys are that good in R/A 10x satties while you still have chips and generally should be played more as a re-entry just to get to the addon. There are exceptions of course where buyin+rebuy is good but generally the benfit is marginal, while the addon benefit will be pretty big most of the time due to it being 2x the starting chips. ... View more

Here's a crazy solution to this problem that I used to do when I used to exchange tickets, when you predict that you will not be able to play more of the higher value tickets fast enough, just stop playing the lower levels for a while until you reduce your number of higher tickets, instead of bothering employees with extensions every day, ez  Also the addon is such a big part of your EV in these rebuy addons, I think the scenarios where not taking the addon is not leaving a ton of money on the table are quite rare. You're maximizing ROI but minimizing hourly, in a spot where you have tons of tickets anyway.  ... View more

I kind of agree with that, I always critique them when they go for a hack feature or fix but back then it used to be a fairly small team that was working on a bunch of different products, I think the number of devs increased greatly compared to 3-4 years ago and as a consequence a lot of major issues got fixed, but even so they're still way way fewer than what stars has for example, and they still have to work on the, let's just say not optimal framework that was built originally, they can't really rebuild everything from scratch at this point.  Out of all the issues the software has this is probably one of the most inconsequential ones one could complain about.  ... View more

Well, on unibet rebuy and re-entry is very similar cause re-entry was coded as a hack from rebuys (so a rebuy that you can only take when you have 0 chips) and not like on other sites where you're a completely new entry that gets reseated at another table, so it doesn't even matter much what it's called.  As for the addon no it doesn't have an addon, you can tell that by looking at the Re-buy/add-on line under the register button. If it had an addon it would be €50/€50, when it doesn't have one of the 2 then it's just a dash  ... View more

@Argevolen They don't really have to prove anything to you or me,  we have the freedom of not playing here if we don't trust them. Like for example if you are against anonymity then you should just not play on a site that is built around anonymity, plenty of non anonymous options around. I get it that it's not that easy to "have a choice" in some countries, since only a few sites might be licenced, that sucks, I'm in the same boat, but c'est la vie. Where they must prove their integrity is to the regulators, if you don't trust multiple countries's regulators either then there's really not much more one can do to add legitimacy other than them giving access to every single player to their systems to conduct their own audit, which would be silly.    All that being said, I think they should have a standard message with all the links and relevant data and little explanation (about the rng, licencing authority, countries they have licence in and their licence numbers) neatly arranged in one place to just copy paste whenever someone has an inquiry about integrity. Just from a PR perspective this should probably be the standard reply, even though most of that info will be useless to the player asking and they won't look more into it /  won't know how or what it means, it removes from the get go the assumption that anything is hidden and it gives the impression that the customer's inquiry is valued by the company even though all that is done is a simple copy paste. Sounds like good ROI  ... View more

@Argevolen You say business is not conducted on trust, but in reality everything works on trust, currency only has value based on trust, stocks as well, a lack of trust in them devalues them both, any transaction you make, any place you give information to, any purchase you make, it's all based on trust. Of course the more safety features are in place the more trust you can have in someone / something. Like with unibet, the RNG verifications, the licencing authorities, the fact that they operate legally in regulated countries that might do their own verifications, the common sense of they're not that stupid to risk a billion dollar business that actually cares about being in regulated markets, for maybe a few tens of thousands. All that adds to that trust relationship. Nothing will guarantee it 100%. You haveing hand histories will add very little to that, not only will you have a very tiny sample size to verify compared to regulators that wouldn't have that issue (which again, you have to trust that every regulator isn't in cahoots with unibet or that they're actually doing their job), but also, people are very bad at spotting the nefarious stuff that's going on. Some sites have published their stats when it comes to banning people, and in general, the amount of bans that resulted out of people observing stuff out of the ordinary and reporting it, vs their own internal detection systems was sub 2%, and a lot of that 2% probably would have been detected anyway at some point. People just don't have the sample sizes and the attention to make a significant impact when compared to computer based checks.    That being said, I too want hand histories, for my own personal use, and I'm looking forward to it becoming a thing on unibet, at some point, hopefully.  ...

The ticket is just a placeholder so you can see the prizes. After you win you get put on the list. Usually next week you receive an e-mail about your win (it's christmas tho), and when you decide what DSO stop you want to play you'll have to reply to that e-mail that you want to play the next one.  ...

@peartsAA  The tournament where you could have used the ticket was on the 24th  , it can't be used anymore. Whenever the community will have another freeroll, unibet will issue a new one. If you continue to have issues with your ticket fell free to ask again and I'm sure someone will copy paste Ray's response for you again.   ... View more

A couple of years ago unibet and all their brands switched from having usernames that you can make yourself for new accounts to automatically generated usernames that start with the brand unibet/pokerihuone etc and a number, and yeah now the e-mail is what is used for login to these accounts. It's been answered douzines of times both here and on 2+2 but I agree that it looks a bit suspicious for an old user that had to choose his username.  ... View more

The uk tour is a live series of what used to be 220pound live tournaments in the UK, that ticket is a qualifier ticket to this series. The problem is that they didn't finalize yet the uk tour schedule for next year which is why there is no final qualifier yet in the tournament lobby but as soon as that happens they will appear. When that will be who knows, maybe soon, maybe early january. ... View more

@XY Are you for real right now? His internet crashed, what do you expect him to do? Drive to a mcdonalds and stream from there so you can get your 3€ of freeroll equity? As for the 1-2 hour claim, he had 1 stream this month that was sub 2 hours, at 1 hour and 56 minutes, that's it.  The loyalty freeroll as the name suggests is meant to reward loyalty, to reward the people that watch and contribute to the stream which you clearly do not, otherwise you would have had way more points than you need by now. It's okay for a promotion not to be for you, there are other promotions that you can play in, the stream does not exist for the freeroll, the freeroll exists for the stream.  ... View more
