Ultimate Bet
Ultimate Bet is perhaps the poker player's online poker room. The room has an impressive line-up of professional poker players playing and and giving their input to the room. WSOP champions Phil Hellmuth and Annie Duke lead the pro team, and they contribute to the poker room's website with strategy articles. There is also a series of online poker seminars the uBet hosts. If you are looking for free advice, from the pros, Ultimate Bet offers it.
The room also deals more than just Texas Holdem. They have Omaha and Stud tables, as well as some more interesting games like Crazy Pineapple and two versions of lowball triple draw poker, Deuce to Seven and Ace to Five.
Ultimate Bet sponsors a tournament that is part of the World Poker Tour, their Aruba Classic that begins with qualifying online and ends in a face-to-face poker battle on the lovely island of Aruba. Of course there is other tournament action, including freerolls and low buy-in games ($3) all the way up to big money buy-in tourneys ($500).
The table limits at the ring games reach as low as pennies, which means players can play real money poker, but don't need a serious bankroll to do it. Of course on the other end of the spectrum, the $80/$160 holdem tables are very active. You can honestly watch big money poker games and see how to the biggest bankrolls play the game.
Ultimate Bet has an in depth players reward program in place, and they even reward players for spending time at the free tables. Their comp points are even used as currency at special tables.
With their emphasis on poker education, Ultimate Bet is the home of some serious poker.
