You guys will likely appreciate my interview with the Ultimate Poker's CMO Joe Versaci- he addresses a lot of your comments in this thread and if you check out his answer to my last question you'll see why they chose the brand name Ultimate Poker despite the inherited brand recognition from UltimateBet.

I hope you like it, Joe's answer are excellent- he's a pro for sure!

Eek.. was excited until I read this x D

Isnt that the poker site that got caught cheating on there weekly 100K GTD,wouldnt dare play there ,old saying once a cheater always a cheater.

You're thinking Ultimate Bet. That one (and the entire network it's on) got shut down and is insolvent.

Joe Veraci's answer to Becky's question about the choice of name is weak IMHO. The fact remains that the majority of OLP players know a little something about the UB scandal and will see that before they think about the actual facts. It is a business mistake to start a biz with a name that reminds players of corruption. They could use the name UFC without deferring (his term) and avoid those reminders. But even then, let us not forget that 5 years ago, every UFC, or MMA event we watched was plastered with ads for FullTilt, and we can not avoid the naming controversy.

That he can think their decision is right brings into question all their decisions.

They may have the perfect OLP solution. But think about it another way. If some company created the most perfect fudge ever tasted by anyone, anywhere, and decided to name it Shit because that is the Englisized version of Shite, would you by it?

All of this sounds like some positive steps in the right direction at least. But I do agree, the name seems like a silly idea, hope the rest of their ideas are better

50 skins ???? Very possible. Might be eons before all 50 states join, but within a few years 30 skins on that network would seem very doable.

Hope it al works out and the US government finally lets adults make adult choices and play abit of poker with the rest of us
