Summary
The Author has played on Ultimate Bet for approximately 18 months of steady play, with perhaps 70,000 hands of real money play and 15,000 hands of free money play. I have personally found them to be reliable, fair, and as comprehensive of a poker site that is currently offered today. Most people, including myself quickly settle in to this site as it takes very little time getting used to the interface. Ultimate Bet is already large, and they are growing very quickly by the day not only because of the fantastic new user promotions, (40% up to $200) but also because people enjoy playing here so much that they bring new players in to enjoy the experience.

Size & Reliability
UltimateBet is certainly in the mid to large category with thousands of active players in Ring Games and in Tournaments. UB’s software and server reliability are setting the standard to judge all other poker sites. Service questions and issues have been responded to quickly and thoroughly. Deposits are immediate and withdrawals are processed faster than most poker sites. A live chat operator would be nice but support has been steady.

Games and Limits
Nearly All games offered from Holdem, Stud, Pineapple, and Triple Draw with limits from $300/$600 down to $.01/$.02. You will have no trouble finding a table running at the limits of your choice. They offer 10 handed and 6 handed Tables which load very fast and are very clear and easy to understand.

Ease of Use
This is a very easy site to get addicted to, the lobby view is clear and easy to navigate, and the Tournament lobby is very comprehensive. With a strong connection these servers run extremely fast. Two table views are offered, a full size and a mini-view (excellent for playing multiple tables). Table rotates automatically so you always have the same perspective; action prompts are clear and bright. You can play up to three tables can be played at once. You can mute individual players chat and player notes can be taken. Your individual session stats are available on the table with one click. Ultimate Bet is supported by pokertracker and hand importation is easy with ultimatehistory program. A buddy list to find players is available at Ultimatebuddy.com.

Tournaments
Fantastic offering from free rolls to $100 rebuys with Weekly Guaranteed tournaments.
They offer a varied selection of Sit and Go Tournaments that fill up fast and start with 1500 Chips. They regularly offer limits from $5000 heads up down to $1.10. The recently upgraded tournament lobby is clear and easy to understand or know your status in the tournament, one of the best around.

Promotions

Real money and free money players earn Ultimate points which can be used for merchandise or Tournament Entries. Ultimate bet has been running frequent bonus promotions.
