If I was you I wouldn't expect to receive your money, they are not even paying the non-US players, imagine the US players.

When I saw this thread title listed on the forum, all that was visible on my page was "UltimateBet payouts for US". I was thinkin' "WTF? They're actually paying out some money to US players!?!?!? No way... that is crazy! .... Really?"

I open up the thread & then see the title of the thread in it's entireity.... yup, didn't see the "?" at first, lol.
UB = UltimateJoke imo. Sucks for many of the HSMTT regs. who kept large bankrolls on there. Glad I was only ever a super micro fish on there (& mostly priv. 'cash-added' tourney whore).

It`s very unlikely you will be paid. I am not a US player, and I had this response from them in reply to my cashout request:

"Dear XXXXX,

Thank you for contacting UB.

Recent legal developments in the United States have resulted in an extraordinarily high volume of payout requests and inquiries, and this is causing processing issues in general for us. Therefore, we have no estimated time as to when your request will be processed. We apologize for the inconvenience.


We thank you for your understanding and patience while we work to return withdrawals to normal service levels as quickly as possible. Your payout is our priority.

Regards,

Andrew.


UB Support"

I have $500 on there, and I have no confidence that I will ever see it. Fortunately, I reduced my exposure by cashing out the bulk of my roll from every US facing site immediately Black Friday hit. I now have no more than $500 on any of them, on the assumption that any of them could vanish tomorrow.

I console myself with the thought that none of it was really my money anyway, since I long since withdrew my initial deposits. I also have the further consolation that I still live in a free country. If I were in the States, I`d be chewing the carpet at this BS. Time for a revolution IMO.
