Yah no kidding.

I got 350 this week from the promo and of course cleared 350/.75 =465 bonus as well.

How much did everyone else get this week?

I'd assume that they want to see if permenantly improving their bonus clearance would give them increased traffic....

I only got 100.. but on a side note I would expect traffic to pick up after the merge....whenever that is. Since Absolute bought UB!!

Has anyone confirmed whether or not this is deducted from MGR?

How did you guys get the word so quick? I am in my UB account, but do not see anything about being extended for a 3rd week.

I'm pretty sure you guys are accurate. This is crazy though, I agree with OP that they are trying to burn us out, like the time party had a similar bonus last spring. I forgot what that bonus was called.

I guess Full Tilt has to take a back seat for the 2nd week in a row...

If you click the link from the previous week, it brings up the page with new dates for the promo.

On a related note, I heard that you can have more than one UB account. What are the rules on this?

I would want to open another one to get the new signup bonus, because if this promo keeps going on I will run out of bonus in a couple of weeks.

how many hands of NL200 would I need to play to earn the 2000 ultimate points to at least get the best conversion rate?

I dunno. I got about 500 points seven tabling at 1-2 and 2-4 limit in three hours. Is that of any help?

BigBiceps

For full ring, I would guess 8 tabling, ~600 hands/hr.

~$17/hr = 170 points/hr = 12 hours.

That is my guess, so it would be ~7200 hands. It will probably be more hands at 6 max.

Also, you will have a hard time getting 8 full ring tables going at once at that limit, except at primetime.

Thanks for the estimates guys.
Not sure if i'll have enough time to put into getting the points since you have to accumulate them in one week.
I know i'll only have one day where I can put in 3 or 4 hours of play, but the rest of the week i only get 1 and sometimes 2 hours to play per day.....

will have to look this over pretty good.

can u only do this once? I heard s1 said u can only cash it in for money only 1 time.

I think it means that you can't use the points for the points store or tourneys. You actually have to cash them in.

Also it is one time per week.

Did anyone's counter update? My counter still is adding on to the previous week totals.

UB hasn't e-mailed me yet about my earned points..

do i just email support@ to ask them to redeem them?

BigBiceps

They emailed me about 30 minutes ago, just wait a little.

I think 2 days qualifies as a little while.

I haven't received mine yet, the email says it will come in 72 hours.

Just wanted to chime in--I acquired a little under 1600 points for the 13th-20th and haven't gotten any e-mail. Is there something I need to do?

I emailed and got a "We have forwarded this" response about 36 hours later. Typical UB support. Not sure why I am bothering with them, I know better.

Am I the only one that noticed that the original 2nd week promo was to be from the 13th-20th, and received an email, like the one above saying it was only from the 13th-19th.

Secondly, can anyone see their third weeks 'cash for points' promo tracker. Mine has disappeared for the 3rd week?

3rd week numbers don't seem to be there.

The 2nd week was originally worded something like midnight 13th to midnight 20th, but they changed it to be 11:59 on the 19th to make it more clear I guess. Still 1 full week though, as it was originally.

FWIW I sent this e-mail to redeempoints@ultimatebet.com on the 23rd:

Is there a good chance they will extend it for a fourth week? I've been at WPEX, but I'm tired of playing there.

I have tons of uncleared UB bonus. So I'm also wondering, if I clear say, $200 in bonus can I receive another $150 for my points that week by exchanging 2,000 points at 7.5 cents per points for a total of $350? Or will they not let me since I cleared bonus by earning those points?

Don't know.

Yes.

Just got paid on Wednesday Oct 25 6:30AM like I suspected. the funny thing is, my friend didn't get the email and made his request on Monday Oct 23rd after I forwarded him the email that I got on instructions on how to redeem the points. His was processed the next day (Tuesday Oct 24th) while I sent my request on Saturday afternoon Oct 21. Oh well, I am happy that the promotion is still going. Hopefully, they will extend it for a 4th week and include a deposit bonus as well to double the effect.

I still have not received my payment from Week #2 and I am getting hammered on the 1/2 and 2/4 limit tables! OUCH!

On a side note, I was wondering how many points you guys have done for week 1, 2, and this current week. I have gotten $205 and $214 but I think I could have done alot better. Hell, I did 3x the points during King of Cash Promo!

I was wondering if anyone is getting a ridiculous amount back, like $500+...I wish i saved all my energy trying to get that UB Hockey Jersey during King of Cash Promo and used it for something more useful like CASH...
