Ultimate Bet Poker Review

Ultimate Bet is one of the bigger poker rooms on the internet, and was one of the first sites to be able to advertise the ability to sit down and "Play with the Pros". Ultimate Bet is endorsed by "The James Bond of Poker" as Mike Sexton reguarly calls him, David "Devilfish" Ulliott. Team Ultimate Bet also boasts Howard Lederer's sister Annie Duke, Antonio "The Magician" Esfandiari and of course the ultimate bad boy of poker, Phil Hellmuth, who can regularly be found playing the high limit triple draw games at UB, yelling and swearing at his opponents over and over.

Ultimate Bet runs some fantastic promotions, has a large variety of games including Royal Hold'Em, some excellent tournaments, a visually different and appealing type of software, and is overall an excellent site definetely worth playing at.

Ultimate Bet Software: Ultimate Bet have a very unique look, as they have went for the "realistic" view of a poker table, and the cards are shown as if you were holding them up to your face. The software is very easy to use, the cards are crisp and clear, and there is even a mini-view, to make it easier to multi-table, or if you're a Commodore 64 kind of guy. The software is also highly customizable, allowing you the option of four colour deck, change the backgrounds, turn off any of the sounds as well as various other settings so you can model the table and software to your needs.

Ultimate Bet Fish Factor: At low limits the games tend to be tight, and at high limits they tend to be loose and aggressive. Ultimate Bet isn't anywhere near the fishiest site on the internet, but with good table selection, Hold'Em, Stud & Omaha can offer some easy games. Also, games like Pineapple and 2-7 Triple Draw are very soft, due to the amount of "curious" players. Royal Hold'Em earns Ultimate Bet an extra poker fish

as it attracts an unbelievable amount of fish, even after being around for almost a year. poker fish
