I have gave absolute and ulimatebet's(new interface) an honest try, but every time someone rivers me or calls me down with a weak pair. I just feel dirty. I mean my stomach turns and I just close the software and return to pokerstars or full tilt. I just can't do it! They have to have some of the same software, it's not all new software!!!!!

Absolute has the same crappy front end of there application.

Well here is one issue I had with UB.. I did a swap with someone via the other site.. And my bad I got scammed.. But I was on with live support within a minute of the transfer going through asking them to reverse it. And they wouldnt do it. That really bugged me. It wasnt like I waited until the next day.. I was there right away. I mean a minute.. And because I had legendary status I had live VIP support. They still wouldnt reverse it. They said they would try to contact the guy but no response. I sent them all the threads from the other site. Still no response.. Sigh.. It wasnt alot of money so Its no big deal. lesson learned. But they could have done something..

I very much doubt any poker site would reverse a transfer once it's gone through, regardless of who sent it. The reason being that they know that a lot of people try to swap funds, and if they would do something like this, then bad situations would come up. Imagine Player A tells Player B he's ready to swap funds and he'll send first. Player A sends $500 to Player B, Player B receives and now sends Player A $500. Player A then reverses his transfer and has the whole $1,000, but then Player B's site won't let him reverse his transfer. Poker sites don't want to be in the middle of these conflicts, and if they allow stuff like reversing transfers, they're stuck right in the middle of something messy. Since the poker sites can't/won't share information about this or get in the middle, they want to have a very simple, clear-cut policy which is that once you send, it's sent. Similarly, I can't send a bank wire to someone and then change my mind and pull it back into my account....

No I understand this. And it was only 73 bucks so I dont care. But the whole thing bugged me. Whatever. I guess you live and learn. But the site could have done something. It says it can take 24 hours for transfers to go through.. Right?

so i go to wish a friend gl in the 1k just now....and this message pops up as i hit send:

"We have suspended your ability to chat at this time. Please contact support@ub.com if you have any questions."

i havent chatted on there like ever...how cud my chat be banned?

honest site

KK top set vs. bottom set, all-in on flop, river quads, $320 pot

KK full house vs. rag flush, all-in on turn, river straight flush, $250 pot

ALL hands at .50/1 and .25/.50, so we're talking multiple buy in stacks each time.

F UB/AP/whoever the fuck can see hole/turn/river cards on there now.

I got a free $10 to play at Absolute Poker yesterday so I decided to give it a shot. I've never been bad beat so many times in my life... and this happened in 1 day lol

A,A flop trip Aces, vs villian with 9,9 on A,10,9 flop, rivered 9 for quads
Same game K,K flopped trips, runner runner 4s for quad 4s
TODAY, A,A flop aces, villian 8,8, rivers 8 for quad 8s

3 times in 1 24 hour period losing the nut full house to quads, BS if you ask me. Not to mention some of the other quads I saw. I can remember one time losing to quads on pokerstars and fulltilt in over 1 year. Happened 3 times in one day lol
