UB Poker Referral Code

2011 AUGUST UPDATE!!! – UB.com, which used to be UltimateBet.com, and is now UBPoker.eu, is struggling. Badly. When the DOJ seized the UB.com and AbsolutePoker.com domain names on “Black Friday”, all their US players (which was most of their entire player base) got shut out from the online poker rooms, as did their funds.

UB/Absolute Poker struck a deal with the DOJ in May, but US player funds have still not been reimbursed, and word on the street is that they never will be.

UB and Absolute Poker have obviously lost all trust from the online poker community, even though they are still operating for players outside of the US, but the apparent damage is done as can be seen by their player volume. Their traffic is now pitiful and we highly recommend you find another poker room to play at. All players from whatever countries have reported difficulties withdrawing their money from the sites and we do not think it is safe to play there any longer.

You can visit FlopTurnRiver.com to find plenty of up to date reviews of the best online poker rooms to try out.

We highly recommend PokerStars for players outside the US!!

UB Bonus and UB Referral Code

The bonus in question is an incredible 111% up to $1,100 for first depositors! All you have to do to make sure you qualify for this amazing Ultimate Bet bonus is use the Ultimate Bet Referral Code FTR111 while registering your new account to get in on this bonanza! The first deposit bonus will also grant you a few extra goodies that will be mentioned shortly, and it’s also a part of RAI$E, which is UB’s excellent loyalty program, and therefore can make you eligible to get up to a 31% return on your investment (including the first time deposit bonus).

UB Referral Code

Clearing this mammoth bonus is done by collecting Status Points through playing in real money games on UB, and depends on your UB RAISE status level. Starting out at the lowest RAI$E level which is MEMBER, for every 20 status points you collect, you will have earned $1 of the bonus. PLAYER and CONTENDER levels are also set at a 20 status points per dollar rate. LEGEND level will clear the first deposit bonus at a rate of 18 status points per dollar, while ICON level will get a 17 status points per dollar rate.

You will earn 1 status point for every $0.30 for your tournament play; for example, if you enter a $5.50 SNG, you will earn 1 Status Point, while the remaining $0.20 will be carried over to the next session. In Ring Games, the amount of Status Points earned depends on the number of Raked Hands you play at any given stake. If you play for instance at $0.01/0.02, you need 20 raked hands to collect 1 Status Point. An overview of the varying rates of collection of status points can be found in the following sheet:

SB BB Raked Hands Status Points
$0.01 $0.02 20 1
$0.02 $0.04 20 1
