There is also a $500 reload.

I have to admit I am getting worn out as well, but this promo is so good, I am playing only at UB.

Now does this mean that the points you have accumulated between 10/20-10/26 roll over to this extended time frame or do you have to email and redeem the points from 10/20-10/26 and it starts fresh again tomorrow?

Funny, I'm still golden at UB but FT is killing me--always does though.

The promotion says 12:01am on Friday, October 27th and 11:59pm on Thursday, November 2nd.

But when I log into UB the counter in the cashier section still says the 20th-27th (last week)

Do points earned today go towards last week, or week 4?

If it's not week 4 I'm not going to play today, I'll start tomorrow.

They had the same problem last week.

It is week 4, and will update probably in a few days.

Can anyone figure what this works out to in unmentionable?

don't do the same [censored] mistake I did...i just assumed the promo started at this moment once I heard about the 4th week. THen i realized I had accumulated 220 points for the week of Oct. 20-27th, which isn't even enough to get a [censored] stained piece of toilet paper. Last night was the first time I played there; well there goes those wasted efforts.

you still got $22 in bonus + rakeback.

Has anyone recieved an email from UB saying how many points you earned for week 3? Other than the one that was sent out on thursday and was way off?

yeah fair enough, but I started to play there to take advantage of the promo. I don't particularly enjoy the 6 max games, every other hand is raised or 3 bet. It probably plays like a 200/400 SH game at the Bellagio (i don't know for sure I am just throwing it out there). There aren't that many games there and the LAGGINESS and aggression takes some time to adjust. I really do like the software however.

My weekly tracker has dissapeared all-together.

Anyone having the same problem?

BigBiceps
10-29-2006, 02:17 PM
Yes, it disappeared, this is the same as last week.

They took a day or two after removing the old one until the new one came.


---- The good news is they were faster in crediting the money from week 3 than week 2!!

I haven't recieved anything from UB since the first week of the promo.

I recieved the second week's statement the day of the deadline to redeem week 2 points. I did send an email 3 days prior to recieving the statement with the number of points I wished to redeem. I haven't recieved the cash from week 2 yet.

I haven't recieved week 3's statement. I did email them this morning (Sunday) with the number of points I wished to redeem for week 3. Have not heard anything regarding that.

Is anyone else having this many problems getting through to UB? I use hotmail as my e-mail provider, could this have anything to do with it???

Just received my promo cash for 3rd week Yesterday night Sunday, Oct 29th.

Is it just me or is UB is doing a good job making me feel obligated to play only on their site? I've been saying this for the past 4 weeks...hey, only one more week, i can play anywhere I want afterwards...this promo won't be around forever so take advantage of it...

BigBiceps

I have only played at UB for the last 3 weeks, and I have increased my playing volume ALOT.

It is too good to pass up.

So far ~$1000 bonus cleared,~$750 from the promo, and ~$550 rakeback.

$2300 in incentives, where if I play at Stars I get basically nothing.

I don't have pokertracker on this machine, but I will check if I have paid more or less than $2300 in rake later. If less, then it is better than even WPEX. (and there is no doubt that the interface is better).

How many hands did that take BigBiceps?

BigBiceps
10-30-2006, 02:04 PM
I'll check when I am at home with on computer with pokertracker.

It is alot though, if I had to guess it would be ~35,000.

However the hands go very fast at UB and 8 tabling gets ~600-1000 hands/hour depending on if you are full ring or 6-max.

It sucks that I could not get UB to work on my computer. When I get a new one, maybe I can jump in on this.

Counters should now be up for this week. In addition, UB already paid me for week 3, which is a much faster payment than for any of the previous weeks.

BigBiceps
10-30-2006, 08:07 PM
The actual numbers since week 2 of the promo were:

54,000 hands (all no-limit)

I got paid for mine as well. Saw the email today.

I'm trying to add more tables to get the points quicker, however, i'm having a bit of a difficult time doing that iwth as fast as the hands go thus far.
