Ultimate Bet Poker Review
Ultimate Bet Poker is considered to be one of the best online poker rooms in the industry, showing that they can keep ahead of developments and competitors in the online poker industry.
With the backing of professional poker player Phil Hellmuth, a player who is well known for his 11 World Series of Poker winners bracelets, Ultimate Bet Poker has managed to find its own area within the poker industry spotlight, resulting in a good amount of traffic that seems to be diverse from all areas around the globe.
Back in 2008, the Ultimate Bet brand completed a merger with Absolute Poker and with both online poker rooms bringing players to the new singular brand, the traffic on the site grew significantly.
Software
Ultimate Bet Poker operates software that has been custom made and until recently although the poker room was smooth and easy to navigate, it came under fire for not offering anything special in terms of graphics. That has now been addressed and Ultimate Bet Poker is a lot easier on the eye.
During the development of the software used by the online poker room, Ultimate Bet Poker decided that they wanted to equal the most popular online poker room software and so created features such as the tiling of active tables to increase multi table capability, hot keys which were to be used as shortcuts as well as the ability for players to easily resize their gaming tables.
This tactic has definitely paid of for Ultimate Bet, after being named as having one of the industry’s best software.
Game Selection
Game selection at Ultimate Bet Poker is as you would expect, with nothing out of the ordinary game types, but very well populated games throughout the day.
As with most online poker rooms, the Texas Hold’em section of the site is the most popular. With the number of new players that are starting playing Texas Hold’em poker, it’s no surprise.
Stakes at Ultimate Bet Poker ensure that there is a table for every player from every income base, meaning that you can get real money and tournament action regardless of your financial constraints.
Ultimate Bet Tournaments
Ultimate Bet Poker is considered to be one of the premier tournament poker locations, with players able to find a wide variety of tournaments throughout the day, starting within short periods of each other.
The stakes at the online tournaments are diverse, offering tournament buy in fees from as little as $1, right up to the other end of the scale with buy in fees of thousands of dollars.
Obviously a poker room that can offer tournaments with buy in fees as high as Ultimate Bet Poker can offer highly attractive prizes in order to get the player base to play in the tournaments. Ultimate Bet Poker tournaments have large guaranteed prize pools as well as packages to some of the biggest live poker tournaments in the world of poker.
Ultimate Bet Poker Bonus and Promotions
Ultimate Bet are offering a huge first deposit match bonus which will see the poker room match your first deposit of up to $1,100 with a generous 111%.
Ultimate Bet Poker seems to be joining a number of other online poker rooms who are trying to offer lucrative first deposit bonuses to players, in order to make them choose Ultimate Bet Poker over some of the other larger online poker rooms.
As well as the Ultimate Bet deposit bonus, you are being offered the chance to claim back up to 30% Ultimate Bet rakeback into your account, meaning that the more that you play the real money cash games and tournaments, the more Ultimate Bet rakeback you’ll earn.
The site also operates a great player leveling system that was created to show Ultimate Bet Poker’s appreciation for the loyal players at the poker room.
The program is dubbed RAI$E and offers 5 levels of player level, with each level offering progressive rewards that increase in value.
Support
The Ultimate Bet online poker room’s support is via email communication only, something that seems to be a thing of the past with the front runners of the industry. But at least the response time is surprisingly fast and as you would expect, the staff are helpful and informative.
