it is a good site.. i like that they have from high rollers to micro games... you can play 1 and 2 cent games.. and you only have to make a min deposit of 10 dollars.... they have sng low as 50 cents and there is alwatys games going on there... so if you dont want spend alot and have a lot play time this site is good... and the players seemed to be mixed from good to bad.. so you actaully get good poker out of this site. _________________ Can you spare a medal?

Ultimate Bet it's really a great poker room. I'm playing there for almost a year and the players are not so hard to beat. They have all kind of games, it was great because I play a lot omaha and stud.
The bonus it's the best thing on the poker room, they offer reload bonus almost every week and it's very easy to clear.
But the freerolls aren't so good, because they offer just $50 and entry too many players.  |

Update :
You can transfer money between UltimateBet and Absolute Poker accounts without incurring any charges.
Use this new feature to:
- Transfer money to a friend at Absolute
- Receive funds from a friend at Absolute
- Move money between your own UB & AP accounts
- Transferring funds between the two sites is as easy as requesting a withdrawal.
Here’s how it works:
- Request a withdrawal from the cashier
- Select ‘Transfer to Absolute’ as your payout method
- Click ‘Next’
- Enter the Absolute username and the recipient’s full name
- Click ‘Submit’ _________________

i think it looks really good adam but i don't play enough anymore to make use of it. i believe the industry is keeping a close eye as to whether it's a success or not.
perhaps it's only drawback is that it could be a touch over complicated for the average player who doesn't want to delve to deep into his/her poker program. _________________

Here is something from.... casino city that I pasted
Miami, FL (PRESS RELEASE) -- Today, the management of both Absolute Poker and UltimateBet announced the upcoming launch of CEREUS: a new poker platform that will integrate the customers and features from both poker rooms, instantly making CEREUS the third largest online poker network.
CEREUS is the result of more than 12 months innovation and development. Absolute Poker and UltimateBet will join the network and retain their unique assets to continue as individual brands, but they will now share more players, more action, more tournaments, incredible new features and massive promotions.
Paul Leggett, Chief Operations Officer of both Absolute Poker and UltimateBet, said:
"I am so excited to announce the launch of our new poker network CEREUS. This is a huge landmark for our company and online poker. I'm confident that Absolute Poker and UltimateBet customers will be thrilled by the new platform and we look forward to welcoming many new players from around the world.
"CEREUS not only delivers the best online poker experience; it enables our company to improve our operations and deliver significantly better value and service to our customers.
"Our company's goal is to provide poker players with the ultimate online experience. The launch of CEREUS is a major step for us in achieving our goal and we look forward to making many more exciting announcements very soon _________________ Can you spare a medal? I need another medal |

Update :
There seems to be some confusion about what the new "CEREUS" update for Absolute Poker and UltimateBet actually.
As i understand it, CEREUS is simply a new network (with enhanced security measures) name that both sites will use and will mean that players will be able to play each other across both sites on that network.
The software will remain the same for the time being to keep the individual feel for both sites. _________________

Update
UltimateBet have improved their new depositors bonus deal. All the information can be found in the top post or by reading the full review on the main Alternate Poker site : UltimateBet Review.
Also available, is the Absolute Poker table style which is easily usable by selecting from your "options" tab in the poker client. I'm waiting for my APF avatar to be uploaded and will change the pic, once it's done (i expect they have a lot to sort out right now).

I've changed the forum avatar for UltimateBet a little as the other one wasn't allowed because it was considered advertising. Hopefully the new one will fare better.

UB is an OK site. I have played there for about 3 years.
I would keep in mind that with the owners of UB and Absolute did nothing when cheating was suspected by some players. It was the players who initiated an investigation that finally uncovered the "superaccount" cheating.
What happened as a result? Not much. Nobody was charged. Nobody went to jail. The poker rooms were ordered to repay the losses by the gaming commission.
Even if no one at the poker rooms was involved, their lack of action and concern, as well as their apparent contempt for their customers, might be cause for extra caution with your money. |

Got 10 cents? Head to Vegas for the Main Event
UltimateBet & Absolute Poker introduce a new tournament series that gives you the opportunity to win your way to the WSOP and other major live events.
Got 10 cents? Throw it into your UltimateBet or Absolute Poker account and you could find yourself parked next to Hellmuth at this year's World Series of Poker*.
The Cereus Network is thrilled to bring you STEP tournaments, a new tournament series that gives you the opportunity to win your way to incredible land-based events for just 10 cents.
How does it work? Just enter STEP 1 for a dime and if you finish in first or second place, you'll move on to STEP 2. Keep finishing in first or second place of each STEP until you make your way to STEP 10. Conquer the final STEP and you'll head to Sin City for the world's most prestigious poker tournament.
If you don't finish in the top two spots of a STEP tourney, don't worry. It's not game over. STEP tourneys are designed to keep players alive. Plus, the first 10 players to win their Main Event seat by starting at STEP 1 will secure an Aruba Poker Classic prize package worth $8,500. For all the details, visit our WSOP* STEPS page. _________________
