O baby read this on my facebook feed after waking up.


anybody got an extra room?
04-30-2013 , 07:20 AM
I'm from California and signed up anyway.

Checked out the cash out options.

Two options: a check in the mail or a check you can collect from Station or Wildfire casinos.

Collecting at station casinos so convenient and brilliant idea.

I always thought this was obviously going to be the case from the beginning, seeing as it's how their online sports betting works.

smart idea to be up and running and establish by the time WSOP starts. Pretty awesome that they have their own software to invest and develop its software in the future. Whats taking the other casinos so long to get going.

Before a few hours ago, the largest hurdle was that of approval by the state.

Is this in any way, shape or form related/affiliated with ultimate bet? If not, why not pick a name that is a bit more dissimilar?
04-30-2013 , 07:43 AM
This is awesome...I am sure other states will follow suit soon.

So where did they get the software? Anyone see any resemblances that can play?

Any idea why Station Casinos got to go first?

Any sign Pokerstars is looking to enter this market?

Tournament fees can range from 0-10% of the tournament buy-in, depending on the tournament. The Ultimate Poker Ring game rake is calculated as a true percentage which uses two components: percentage of the pot (%) and cap.

The rake is defined below for each game we host:

No Limit Rake: 4.5%
All number of players refer to the number of players dealt into the hand, not the number seated at the table

Stakes % Rake 2 Player Cap 3-4 Player Cap 5+ Player Cap
$0.01/$0.02 4.50% $0.30 $0.30 $0.30
$0.05/$0.10 4.50% $0.50 $1.00 $1.50
$0.10/$0.25 4.50% $0.50 $1.00 $2.00
$0.25/$0.50 4.50% $0.50 $1.50 $3.00
$0.50/$1 to $3/$6 4.50% $0.50 $1.50 $3.00
$5/$10 4.50% $0.50 $1.50 $3.00

NOTE: Ultimate Poker does not charge rake if a hand ends on the first betting round (before the flop).

Fixed Limit Rake: 4%

Stakes 2 Player Cap 3-4 Player Cap 5+ Player Cap
$0.05/$0.10 $0.04 $0.04 $0.05
$0.10./$0.20 $0.10 $0.10 $0.10
$0.25/$0.50 $0.15 $0.15 $0.15
$0.50/$1 $0.40 $0.40 $0.40
$1/$2 $0.50 $0.70 $0.80
$2/$4 $0.50 $0.70 $1.20
$5/$10 $0.50 $2.00 $3.00
$10/$20 $0.50 $2.00 $3.00
that's not bad at all.
