In Depth Ultimate Bet Review

Customer Service:

The customer service staff can be contacted from within the poker client or external e-mail. You can also reach the staff via telephone at 1.866.605.0311. A live chat feature is also available and recommended, as e-mails can take over 24 hours to receive a response. During our Ultimate Bet review we liked the telephone option as operators spoke very good English.

Bonuses Review:

Ultimate Bet is offering a huge sign up bonus, matching your initial deposit by 111% up to $1100.

Clear your UltimateBet bonus by earning "RAISE" points, Ultimate Bet's loyalty program. Initially your earn $1 of your bonus for every 20 points earned, and the bonus is released in $5 increments. The more you play and progress through the different levels of the RAISE status, the bonus becomes easier and easier to clear.

Games Offered:

Ultimate Bet offers all variety of games including Fixed, Pot Limit and No Limit Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha Hi/Lo, 7 Card Stud, 7 Card Stud Hi/Lo and Razz. They offer a host of sit'n go and multi table tournaments. Sit'n Go's are offered at 1 on 1, 6 seated and 10 seated and with a variety of blind levels. Play at regular levels (10 Minute Blinds), Turbo (5 Minute Blinds) or Ultra Turbo where the blinds increase every 2.5 minutes.

UltimateBet offers what we consider the best multi-table tournaments, as first place pays generally the same as the bigger sites for the same buy in, but you don't have to weed through thousands of players trying to avoid the inevitable bad beat to cash in.

They also offers a Bad Beat Jackpot, Blackjack and other Casino games.

Banking Review:

Ultimate Bet has some great banking options for USA players. Credit cards work well here from within the poker client and have a high success rate and they also accept American Express. Ultimate Bet also offers eChecks (electronic checks) where you can fund your account directly from your checking account. The first deposit is limited to $100, however after your deposit clears your limits are raised to $600 per day / $1000 per week.

Other deposit options include Western Union, Money Gram, and Bank Wires.

Withdraw options include Western Union, Money Gram, Bank Wire, Check and eCheck withdraws. Echeck withdraws are processed fast and usually within your checking account within 3 business days.

Site Traffic:

With the merger of Absolute Poker and creating the Cereus poker network, the site traffic is very good. During peak times you can find the game of your choice at all stakes levels. During off peak times generally the highest stakes found are $10/$20 ring games and $200 buy in tournaments. Higher stakes can begin, however you would generally have to open the table and wait a few minutes.

Player Competition:

As with most Internet Poker Sites, at lower levels the competition is relatively weak. As you progress up the blind levels the competition does become better. In bigger multi table tournaments the competition is pretty standard as most players pay the entry fee rather than winning their entry from a satellite.
