Default UB is giving alot of 100% bonuses-suspicions

They had alot of withdrawals b/c of their upgrade debacle and I think this is the 3rd reload since then. Perhaps they need more deposits to prop them up. They're a big site and new deposits are likely safe so there's no need for alarm but, still, I just wanted to say I'm suspicious.

Well it's certainly possible they are just trying to boost their customer numbers again, as they have probably fallen off big time.

Any SANE company would keep player and company funds entirely seperate.

Although I'm not putting any money in UB anymore personally. Their bonuses are pretty much useless anyway. They'd have to make em better to draw my business back (I never played much there anyway).

All UB bonuses are stackable and never expire. They give out so many becasue they're so goddamn hard to clear, it's not like they lose money on bonuses.

Since they are stackable, does that mean it takes three times infinity to clear?

Hardest bonus I ever saw to clear. They still have a bunch of points in my account that I never cleared when I got out, and they can keep them.

I'd have to agree with the above posters. The bonus money is IMPOSSIBLE to clear. Its worthless.

Try to think of it more like rakeback. And actually, with rakeback, it's not a bad deal. Probably only best for higher stake players though.

With their high rake it is not a good deal, only place I have an uncleared bonus.

I have over 4K in bonus money there. Will I ever clear it? Maybe. I only play UB for Pineapple and TD games so the rake is not that high. Yes it will take forever to clear but, like the above poster, just think of it as rakeback.

Max clearence rate is .05 per hand. Max requires $10 pot and above. If you're playing a game where the pot is always at least $10, bonus clears at 20x. If you're playing a game where pot avg is between $5 and $9.99 you get 2.5 cents a hand, clearing at 40x.
