This is a really bad slot. The normal line wins without bonus mode are real bad so they hardly sustain your balance. The bonus has some potential but I also experience that it's really hard to hit it at times. Maybe I've played the game on my quite a few experiments on it just in bad moments, but I have added this game on my banlist of slots for now. I have liked a couple other games from the same provider like Gorilla Go Wild (the #2 bonus mode sticky wild spins can pay nicely) & Medusa 2 with it's 243 lines and hitting a lot of wilds can be real nice. ...

To me the names multiverse & meteor shower sound a bit too "forced" to get something going on to fit that space theme maybe because they don't seem to rhyme that well,  but that's just me. No quarrel. Just tossing out other names, not to replace but if there could be some use for later ideas: Shockwave, Spiral, Flash, Abyss, Twin star, Star ray, x radius (insert whatever instead of x like star/black/gold), Symphony etc. ...

I like the name Sunday Supernova as well. I just was thinking that maybe it was already used elsewhere, at least I recalled something like that. If not that is a perfect fit for a major tournament as well, the brightest thing. ... View more

Some random space related names & ideas to toss around: -Orion (the Hunter! - definately bounty related) -Singularity (Winner takes it all SNG, don't know about the popularity of such ones, perhaps with deal making possible) -Nemesis (Sounds like a heads up thing to me) -Crown / Corona (A crown tournament or a big SNG, but the name corona does not rhyme well to me to poker, the idea is better than how it looks) -Aurora / Solar wind -Eclipse (Just a fun idea, play your hand blind, the table will be revealed afterwards. Again propably not a popular thing, just idea tossing around) -Gravity -Rogue star (You keep shuffling tables after every hand  played, probably not popular) Just had my fun with toying around these. ...

I will make a guess and add my reasonings behind them. :] - the buyin: 50€ (Just tempted to make a bet for a lower bin that does not not cover the GTD in bins/re-buys at start, but the lost money be covered from advertisement sector here to get the bigger money players come to the site as well.) - the name: Corona (Often described as the crown around the Sun -> crown tournament. I know you can only make one bet here so I use Corona, other ones free to pick to use is like Aurora a more beatiful name revolving around the Sun) ... View more

Anything on top of Challenges I don't personally class as loyalty because everything else changes on a month to month basis. As a customer elsewhere I expect loyalty to be consistent and based directly on what I do. If you are planning to play more MTTs at Unibet then you might be interested in another thread I'm going to start tonight... OK, Thank you very much for taking time to explain these things to me. I'm also sorry as my questions were based on the original topic but my questions that arose derailed it to a bit of a sub thread of it's own. I don't know how I had missed the shop / challenges section. I was looking for the bonus shop elsewhere and just didn't pay much attention to the profile page even though I have a few profiles created. I'm sure I'm not the only one more casual to poker to have missed that. The challenges do look like that they are related to playing poker at the tables and make it not necessary to astray from what you really want to play to get points as opposed to the missions that might force you to take a broader look of the games. Overall I think Unibet has answered the questions under this topic well and it's good for everyone to read who has questions regarding ethics and loyality in the poker side of the game. I hope poker keeps growing there as well. ... View more

The solution obviously is a more personalized loyalty reward system. Personally I think that the loyalty system (Challenges) can be considered 'loyalty' and something the player can expect based on their regular play. In that regard, there is a good argument to say that loyalty should only ever include poker rewards or cash. Anything else I would class as a tool Unibet has to try to incentivise or reward certain groups of players. We might use those tools (such as missions, double trouble or monthly promotions) in different ways each month and if we really lost our minds then we might decide to scrap them altogher. I think getting used to something that's always there and being entitled to something are two different things though. If you mean the missions in the poker room I must disagree on that definition of being a loyalty. They provide incentive to complete the tasks but it is not directly loyalty from playing poker at the tables for example. In other big rooms it's directly some points or rake back to the player playing. Maybe you meant some other poker challenges that I'm not aware of since I'm a casual player to poker. I'm planning to start spending more money on some tournaments and sng:s though at Unibet. This case was just very interesting to me overall and I got curious regarding all the nuances and stuff what goes on behind the mind of the company doing these things. There is no quarrel here, just out of sheer curiousity (I possess an inquisitive mind and it's not something to always like, I don't bring it out always though and usually just leave it be publicly). To not leave everything at critcism only here I must point out that the community challenges here definately fit to a loyalty reward category for active and general players playing at Unibet. So there is reason to be happy from that alone as well (always look on the bright side of... etc.). ... View more

Impressive background check on things and connecting some dots there. You definately can make that deduction from that information provided, but it could be unintended as well. If it is unintended then they should make changes to such policy as it is a contradiction to responsible gaming policy. While it doesn't matter to majority, it can cause a few problems here and there. It's evident that slots are much more hooking mentally than something slow paced like live casino or poker. If we suppose that it is intended, then one must ask that can you blame the companies for doing that. The companies / businesses run in modern economy are forced to have growth for the stake holders, also the money base experiences constant inflation (big or small) and majority of businesses are run by debt. Now I don't know is that so in the gambling business, it seems very lucrative with not much necessary operative costs in relation. But it's also a area of business that has a very high competition. So I understand if businesses do that, but it obviously is not very nice to the common player who might not be aware of such concepts and possible psychological hooks. You never have to accept or use an offered bonus/reward, but to offer possible traps as loyalty is bad, rather no rewards at all. That would be bad reputation. Like mentioned as a player you would rather have loyalty rewarded within the gaming area you are playing in or at least have a choise do you want to test something else. Maybe they can answer on this thread have you deciphered a not so positive company policy from the players POV. This is not a real problem for me as I only play Unibet poker for some freerolls and spend my money on slots and live casino. The impressive case built here just demanded a response as a reward. ...

I am happy if our money is safe with Unibet and they take possible false identities seriously. It's sad if this wait and task required from you was problematic, but the other side of it is why such policies exist. You did get your money back, which is a good sign always when all the correct documents have been provided. I've got experience of working in customer service myself and sometimes things can get really hectic and such periods can last for a long time, even months due to resources or whatever, but that should never be an excuse for a rude customer service. I have not experienced this in Unibet when I've had to take contact. ... View more

I'll add my two cents as an uninvited guest to the thread as well.  I appreciate the casinos who have been around for a long time so you at least know they are doing a business of good standing. I am very cautious about new casinos and would be really uneasy making a deposit of 100€+ to those places. Live casino is a requirerement for me to even consider a deposit and if the casino also provides sports/esports betting then all the better. Deposit bonuses are a nice way to award loyalty. Also for me I like to move money in/out fast on wallets like neteller/skrill. Some casinos can do this almost instantly. If the wait is even several hours that is a negative for my experience. The site also has to be working fast. If there are load times then that gives a bad experience. Unibet actually has a few things to improve on that list of mine, but regardless I like Unibet a lot as I feel like that they are one of the "good" guys around. The community is also a unique feature for the casino, it says about the standing Unibet has that they can have a few of their team members checking out on us and our conversations here and take part to solutions / competitions. Impressive compared to other casinos. ... View more

I like the idea @MoreTBC had as well. I would most likely use that setting if live casino & slots were separated from each other.  Below as an example what I could see myself using with my current deposit limit: Sports: no restriction Casino&Slots: 100€ (30 day) or 5€-10€ (24h) or permanently blocked at times like on the thread idea Live Casino: no restriction (30 day) or 100€ (24h) Lotto,Bingo,Poker: no restriction Allows better flex without governing the restriction options beforehand a gaming session which is a total on/off currently per game selection. As you can see how I perceive Casino&Slots from Live Casino is _very_ different from eachother so a single usage of loss limit them combined would not suffice for me and I would just have to work around it myself. ...

I think not everything I wrote above was on spot so I will correct myself here. offered bonus = bonus that shows as a yellow sign on top right menu accepted bonus = bonus that has been accepted, not started out active bonus = what it says I want the yellow sign off sometimes so I accept the offered bonus as you cannot cancel that. What I wrote about canceling an accepted bonus I am not so sure anymore can that be done (I recalled I had done that, but not so sure anymore), I have canceled accepted bonuses by accepting new offered bonuses to get rid of the yellow symbol. Active bonuses you can cancel out yourself. What I wrote about the free spins I meant these https://www.unibet.com/promotions/casino-promotions/happy-hour-free-spins and I think that I did not receive them because the terms for specific countries. This has been on for Finland as well at times so I presumed that to be on automatically for us again as well. I contacted customer support to remove an accepted bonus to be able to play these but then just checked the terms for the countries on so the reason was probable there not that I had an accepted bonus on. ...

livertool wrote: Here is the start and the end of my betting in e-sports. Watched for a moment on Twitch but couldn´t understand anything and i guess my bet is lost already. Isn´t here big risk of cheating as one player seemed to be like 12 years old and i would imagine that they don´t get payed for playing except maybe some price money? I think eSports is the same as any other sport you are betting on. It's good to know your sport beforehand or it won't make much sense. There is a new generation coming that is very aware of eSports so it's a growing market. I follow LoL mostly and recently getting to know CS:GO a bit. Never played CS:GO, the old one yes so some of the maps are familiar but team and invidual strenghts I have not gotten in to. LoL is something I used to play quite some but now just enjoying the streams. The eSport of your bet Heroes of the Storm is a bit moba like, but not as popular as dota2/lol for me it was a bit more confusing at start as well as the map layout is not the legendary defence of the ancients map and there was some extra features for getting objectives, also if you don't know the heroes and their skills it's hard to follow what's going on. The top organisations do pay some salary for the teams players as well. I cannot speak for all teams as that is pretty much up to the negotiations between the team and organisation, but even some of the Overwatch teams are getting regular salary for representing a big organisation and that's not yet as big as CS:GO for example. All sports have the risk of manipulating market and I'm sure they're heavily checked upon. My bets for the promo: NaVi-G2 1 @ 2,15 (I Know NaVi is strong, but don't know much about G2 in CS:GO so I cannot estimate the percentages, maybe G2 is the dog here) Virtus Pro - Vega Squadron + 3,5 2 @ 1,90 (VP Is probably the favourite but I watched them fail a lot last week in some games so maybe they will keep continue to fail) ...

More accurate info on this subject from my own perspective. I know the idea was forwarded already, but I like to build the case as accurate as possible. Trying to not keep it as spammy, just consider this important for me, sorry about that. My own statistics from my gambling sheet on Unibet since may: a) ~5 hours of live casino on Unibet for an amount of +~110€ with a low bankroll b) Total of -~460e on slots trying to skyrocket the bankroll up to a level where singles sports bets & casino feels more rewarding. This option hasn't been kind  for me, lol. But all it takes is a single spin and everyone knows it's high risk/high reward. c) -Total of -~40e on sports/esports playing mostly parlays after failed attempts on slots to skyrocket the bankroll. With a proper bankroll singles and duos would be the butter and bread. d) No poker, I got tired of that in the end of last decade, just like to play tournaments and live with friends. This would probably be a good option to build your bankroll up as well with a couple of tables on. However I have no current plans of getting back to active poker. Clearly having the slots is beneficial for Unibet financially. But I think that's the form of gambling that can be hardest to control especially if your mind has already been exhausted from other type of games and then it would be good to take a precautions beforehand with specific restrictions for a short period of time. For the majority of the players things don't work as well with slots as it does for Twitch streamers Jarttu & Roshtein etc. dead spins^n+1 hahhah. Perhaps there is no shortcut up except for in the rarest of cases and you just have to work your way to get that bankroll up and running, even a total restriction of slots would help there. Thank you all and take care everyone. ... View more

I received a contact attempt from Unibet most likely kickstarted by this thread. While I appreciate the concern I must elaborate a few keywords that might have alerted some people to take that initiative and I have no problem going through with it publicly. Perhaps some can relate to this even or take heed to reflect upon themselves and think about it. The mental side of the game after playing some hours on live casino is the same as playing in any other computer game or reading a lot. You get a bit tired and your focus level wears down as does your decision making. Also a set of bad runs like on poker can cause a "tilt" session, it all the same applies in other games. That is the mental side of the game, it was not meant in any way to anything else that should be of concern. No guilt, burden or stress involved. I wanted to make that clear in case that alerted some people to contact me. That is what this thread was about mostly, to protect yourself from wearing yourself down and astraying to worse decision making. Aka hours of nice fun playing but when you get a bit tired and the bankroll does not reflect upon that you might want to take unnecessary risks with slots. Affordable bankroll means two things for me. Have a proper bankroll management for your bets, like in poker and that should be related to your income how much you initially deposit. However if you try to play with a strong bankroll management the bets might not feel so rewarding so you might play more loose and try to skyrocket the bankroll up high so you can play steady. Extraordinary patience is a virtue of a few. Perhaps making a live casino challenge from 50€ or 100€ to get it to 1000€ might help there. =) Sipping beverages mostly was an example, I have only been drunk once the past year. But it is very common with people to play some casino while drinking so it felt fitting to include there. This month I probably did invest a bit more than I ought to initially, but I never play that much that I would lose the roof on my head or so. No burden involved with the money I invest. I have adjusted my deposit limit to a safe level. Thank you for the concern. ... View more

Thanks @Jeppe-Unibet For clarification for others who possibly did not understand it I have a couple of examples of this. Sometimes you make a deposit of 100€ and you might just want to go high risk / high reward with slots to up your bankroll. There is no requirement for self-restriction there. Sometimes or even more often you might want to take that methodical approach and play hours on live baccarat / live black jack / live roulette during the weekend with a deposit of 500€ for example while sipping a few beverages etc. This would be the perfect time to restrict yourself from slots and sticking to that plan purely. We all know what long gaming sessions can do mentally and especially a couple of beverages too much. ... View more

@PokerAndBetting"Make sure you have a max deposit level on your account or your account could be temporarily locked." What I meant more is that my approach to baccarat / roulette is much more methodical with bankroll management than in slots. I like those games a lot. Sometimes you however wish to have an extra sensation of reward from the bets made so I tend to try to go for slots to shoot the bankroll up for that. That is sometimes very tempting and I wish there was the option to block that and just instead keep grinding your bankroll up or take a break when the playing does not feel rewarding anymore. What I deposit I am ready to accept as losses,. I also know when to take time off as I have evidently restricted myself from gaming previously in Unibet as well. So this was not a suggestion to restrict your gambling, it was a suggestion to add a restriction what type of gambling you can do while you decide to play and help sticking to that decision. ...

Going public with ask gamblers or something along the way is always good as well, might get more information and help from other users as well. There are a lot of new online Casino coming up nowadays that offer a lot of bonuses for people so they attract money from many players. It is alarming to me in a sense that it might spread the total money pool from gambling so wide that some old reliable Casino get a hit from that. Many of the sites are duplicates of each other so they are most likely working as a conglomerate / syndicate to leech that money out. There are most likely some dirty unreliable "players" involved in it as well. It is however up to the old Casinos to stay attractive and offer those deposit bonuses as well so players don't go with their money elsewhere. I would encourage being cautious with new Casinos and check out ratings from askgamblers.com for example. Support your old reliable casinos with your money. Best way to go. =) Hope you get your money. ... View more
