Ultimate bet is cool. The players are soft as well as the tournies. Pretty easy to build a roll there.
Good luck

I play UB every once in a while. Found it very easy to place in the money on freerolls. There are alot of donks in the freerolls players are better in real money games. So make sure not to expect the same kind of players.

There are plenty of them. I don't want to post another affiliate's link, however if you search any of the major rake back sites or even just search Ultimate Bet rake back you'll find a good one.

You might want to get some details about their withdrawal policies. I know they have some screwy transfer rules like having to leave $25 in YOUR account after a transfer is made and (iirc) there ware some strange hoops to jump through on withdrawals and some VERY heavy processing fees.

As to their fees, I think there was also a thread on here recently about that. Try using the CC search engine.

Is a good site and yes can be soft... I never had any trubble or charges for withdrawals etc. using Insta or Money, dont use credit cards myself.

Overall I keep it on my list, dropped Absolute cos u pretty much have to choose one..

AP is the same as UB.

Open up AP - look at a certain cash game - example best made by finding the highest blinds full ring game. Note two names. Close AP.

Open up UB - look for the fullest high blind ring game. Check your list for names.

They are one in the same. The only gripe I have with AP/UB lately is that the software is kinda sorry - which sucks because when I typed in 560 but accidentally hit the 5 twice it came out to 5560, which was more chips than I had, so I got a pop-up box explaining I couldn't bet 5560, and then my AK was folded preflop when the correct move was to 3-bet

Also, if you are trying to join tournaments while you have a table in progress, it's a pain in the ass.

The software is pretty weak... but so is the game.

I've turned $100 into $1300 so many times at that site. Just wish I could practice BRM so I could still have money there.

Absolute Poker is the same as Ultimatebet.

.

No. Same network. UB has better points/bonus structure and most regs have moved there. U can only open one at a time on Cereus, and only chase bonuses and rakeback on one at a time practically speaking, so I had to choose, and I think UB is better value.

GTFO youuuu douchebag


Thank you all for all your advice, and to expand on what gomangodouche has said, it is possible to play at other sites aswell so dont tell me to play at tilt and stars when i already play at stars and will be at tilt too

Thanks everyone, about the software, honestly, i think i prefer it to stars, some of the problems raised about it have just been huma error, which can be avoided, the stars software bores me, and plus UB offers an awesome 1st time deposit bonus + a 2k freeroll which would be uber soft.

UB's software has made mys head spin quite a few times last year.

  • Once it always disconnected when I raised :eek:
  • Often it crashed with more than one site running
  • Once the fold button was gone :confused:
Probably most of the software issues have been solved by now though.

But the play is soft in the micros (as everywhere ;) ) and if you feel comfortable on UB go for it.

Maybe I should deposit, too - just to pull out the 100$ lying idle on that site ....:eek: .

Im really hoping to be a high roller on there eventually, whether i get a break at mini ftops on FTP and manage to make a big deposit, or take down some wcoop, (i limit how much of my money i can put into poker, but if win money in poker i have no problem keeping it on there), i can ship a few k to UB, i watched a whole tournament the other day, think it was like a $100 buy in 20k guarantee sumin like that, and watched it from the final three tables down (yuh i take which sites i play at seriously), and honestly the play was absolutely terrible.

As for the SW issues, so far no problems for me, hopefully it can stay that way :) but im sure they sorted out any major ones, like the ones you have stated ;)


FWIW, LETS ALL PLAY THE $50 FR STARTING IN 16 MINS !!!!!!!! 9:15 ET!!!!!!!!
