UltimateBet PokerUltimateBet is a second tier online poker room. The big three poker sites are Full Tilt Poker, Party Poker, and PokerStars, and they're all far bigger than the competition. In terms of poker traffic, UltimateBet Poker is in the middle of the next batch of poker sites, with traffic that's comparable to rooms like Everest Poker, the Microgaming poker network, or Bodog Poker. They offer a unique software package that includes access to blackjack tournaments and some unusual poker game choices. Poker pros Annie Duke and Phil Hellmuth represent Ultimate Bet poker.

We
enjoy the unique, sleek, and modern look of the UltimateBet.com
software. UltimateBet.com offers a unique miniview of their
tables that makes multitabling a breeze, and we've yet to find
another poker site which has managed to offer an online poker
table that's this small while still being completely usable. The
download itself is fast, and although we've seen reports of
software freezing up, we've never experienced that ourselves.
