100 Online Poker Players Win Seats To UltimateBet Online Championship

With 2009 just around the corner, that can mean just one thing for online poker players at UltimateBetPoker – the Million-Dollar UltimateBet Online Championship (UBOC) series is almost here! Set to kick off Friday, January 9th, there are already 100 lucky online poker players ready to take their seats after being awarded free entry to the UBOC last weekend.

Last Saturday, UltimateBet awarded 100 of its most skill members with seats in the upcoming UBOC online poker series, featuring 22 guaranteed events over 10 days. UltimateBetPoker.com will be awarding a minimum of $3 million in guaranteed prize pools, including two $1,000,000 guarantees throughout the series.

Among the 22 events will be 10 special tournaments deemed Mini UBOC events. These are much cheaper UBOC events developed to mirror the more expensive versions, but with only 10% of the buy-in. Online poker players who don’t manage to win a seat in the UBOC, or those with a smaller bankroll, will find the Mini UBOC events to be both accommodating and highly lucrative.

Overall, the UltimateBet.com Online Championship will feature a diverse line-up of No Limit Texas Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha, H.O.R.S.E. and other popular poker variants. The UBOC Main Event will take place on Saturday, January 18th, with a guaranteed prize pool of $1 million.
