I hear really good things about poker in Aruba Not so much good things about treatment of tourists (see Natalie Holloway) I hope I win a seat, but I really wish you guys would have picked a name different from Army and tour of duty for this new promotion. It seems disrespectful to those in the actual service who risked being shot at vs those who risk being drawn out on imo

I wish I trusted UB , and didn't know that 2+2 was still reporting accounts they suspect of superusing, because they actually seem to have a good schedule with good promotions aside from just returning millions customers found out had been stolen.

no problem eddie have a great day reading 2 +2

Im not saying Ub hasnt had its problems ,BUT they really seem to be trying really really hard to get things right. This promo is a good one ...dont miss out on ARUBA ,it is such a blast. hope to cya there

Not being familiar with how the Raise points are accumulated, can I assume that ring players get more points than tourney players (assuming this because all sites are like this).

So you are rewarding ring players with entries into an MTT. I never understood this. At least develop some type of system that rewards MTT players with MTT entries.

Yes, I know the ring players generate most of the rake - but they already get the rewarded with greater "points" than MTT players.

Oh, and since I'm in a bitching kind of mood - how about something to reward the low volume, low stake players. Just a thought - but how about designating a few tourneys a day at the lower stake levels - and the winners of each event get entered into an MTT with a few seats.

it does seem like they're trying to make good for all the UB players...hope to see you is Aruba P0kerH0, You can by the THEMICK07 a shot of jag!

How about doing what my mother told me......"if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."???

Actually, I don't mind people posting promotions on this site as some people might not know of this promotion. Unfortunately, this promotion is for Ultimate Bet. Why do players keep on standing up for this site that cheated poker players out of millions? It doesn't matter that he had nothing to do with the problems UB has had, it's just the fact that he's promoting a shameful site.

HelenRNurse...no wonder u just get shot down every time u make a post because of ignorant comments like this

The best thing about poker for me is Aruba every year.

Get there somehow someway, you wont regret it
