I call that screwed. |
Didn't want to hijack the multi-table thread for this, and apologize if I already did.
I'm with Hawk on this one. Seems to me that UB went to great lengths to hide this change... (To figure out your bonus multiply the number of UB points earned times your Rai$e level on Matrix B divided by the number of Helmuth hats you bought in the previous month blah blah blah...)
I may be wrong, but according to my math it's now twice as hard to clear bonus (I'm working off a $600 reload bonus). I used to clear $1 for 10 UB points, in real time. Now I clear $1 for 60 UB points, given I get a 3 UB multiplier based on my Rai$e level status. That still means now I gotta earn twice as many points to clear the same $ in bonus... and they only release it in increments of $5.
Kinda sucks cause I love they software... but unless you a multi-tabling fiend at $25NL plus, I wouldn't even consider the bonus when signing up as a noobie...
Okay, back to the tables... 1,473,296 more hands (or 2,742 Phil hats) to go....

UB is getting worse every day. The last year or so the trend is: another new feature - another group of customers running away. Almost if they want to ruin their business purposely. Their limit games are infested with bots like worms in dead rotten body, but they don't give a *****. All of their NL traffic is at jackpot tables - don't miss the exciting opportunity to pay shitload of rake just in case your quad 8s+ get cracked (better safe then sorry!). U B superuser thread is stickied in 2+2 high stakes forum but they don't give a ******. Nowadays I find it hard to imagine that once upon a time Ultimate F-in Bet was a synonym for fast, solid, reliable poker room popular among high stakes ballas.
