Hello,
I was playing on Titan, but i just signed up with Ultimate Bet w/ 30% rakeback (through raketherake) - how much can i expect to earn?
I play 50NL (.5/1.00) and 4 table about 4 hrs / night - can anyone give me a rough idea?
I'm also clearing a $500 bonus with them now - so this sounds to good to be true!
Andrew.

Not as much as you think
If you 4table for 4 hours at UB 6max NL game that's like 1800 hands. I would expect to make ~$50ish daily, probably less.
But, it sounds like you play 100NL (that would be .5/1) so you can increase the number a bit.
The bonus clears slowly now that it's all contributed. However, UB has by far and away surpassed all other US sites in reloadable bonuses. Plus they are all stackable and never expire. That means if you can scrounge up some extra money, or don't need to put your whole BR on the site to be rolled for your level, you should keep some money behind and wait for their reload bonuses also. I think they've given over $600 in reload bonuses this month already.

is that $50 daily in rakeback? sounds a little excissive no?
And sorry - let me clarify (it was early) - i play 10MAX, .25/50 (50NL) - 4 table - about 4 hr/s night? What would my cut of the rake be?
THanks - sorry for the confusion....
Andrew.
PS - thank you for letting me know about the "Reload bonuses" - i currently only transfered $500 to UB off my $2000 bankroll on Titan - so i will keep the rest at Titan until a reload bonus comes... (do they notify you via email?...)

Playing Full Ring (10max) you're gonna play about 1k hands a night for about $20-25 in RB.
I just got an email from UB today. 20%bonus up to $250 so if you have $1250 to spare, there is a free $250 for ya. You can always withdraw the money and put it right back in your Titan account as well.
UB is GOING CRAZY on these bonuses. I just don't have the money online to take advantage of a lot of them. This seriously brings the amount of bonus dollars up around $900 this month. If you had like $4-5k sitting around online you could have a lot of bonus to clear.

the bonus on UB is crap. I cleared pretty much nothing playing 400nl.
Also, 30% contributed rb on UB is worth maybe $0.6 per hour, so i think youre only earning 10-15 per evening.
Sure, 20-25 might be possible but i think it is a bit high.
rb isnt really worth it until you get to 200nl at least.

Wouldn't any rakeback be better that none? (or is there is a reason you wouldn't want to get it?).
Do other sites do rakeback differently? I.e.// contributed rakeback vs. non-contributed?

you always want to have rb on any account if you can have it.
Its just that at 50nl rakeback is pretty worthless because you just dont create enough rake. Bonuses are much better value (although the UB one isnt, its horrible)
So sure, rb is definitly worth having, just dont rely on making much from it when your playing 50nl.

The UB bonus is not total crap. The good thing about it is that it is released as you earn it, not in full $20 incremements and certainly not all in one lump sum after you release it.
It used to be a lot better but they are making up for it now. Hell, if we're all winning players anyway rakeback and bonus are just nice incentives that can really help our winrates.
