Ultimate
Bet Poker officially launched
in 1999 and is the only online poker
site where you can find the “Poker
Brat” Phil Hellmuth and Annie
Duke. As one of the oldest poker rooms
online, Ultimate Bet paves the way
for both new and experienced players,
seeing more than 60,000 players during
peak hours and offering a wide variety
of ring games and tournaments. The
poker room is part of the newly established
CEREUS poker network and is licensed
by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.
UB is one of the few sites offering
players a massive first deposit bonus
in addition to a very lucrative VIP
player rewards giving you cashback
on your games.
UB Poker Software and Features
One of the more unique features
to the CEREUS Network is the software.
Both poker sites using this network
share the same player base but offer
totally unique software. Ultimate
Bet’s software offers a very
clean and easy to navigate lobby with
clear cut tables displaying a full
table view. Both the lobby and tables
are easy enough for a beginner but
still equipped with the necessary
tools and features for experience
players. Statistics, multi-tabling,
speed and performance is top notch
and with frequent updates, you can
expect 100% stability around the clock.
The only downside to Ultimate Bet’s
software is the lack in customization
features, which at the time of this
review includes none. Players will
be able to play an unlimited number
of tables, with resizable windows
in addition to preferred seating,
custom table settings, easy to use
betting features and a hand replayer
included in ring games. The lobby
gives you ample statics for the viewed
flop percentages, hands played per
hour, average pot size and with the
easy to use navigation; you can quickly
access your preferred games with the
click of your mouse. The overall quality
in Ultimate Bet’s software definitely
makes up for the lack of customization
tools.
