    Can someone help me out with this? This comes from UB's website:

    "Between April 3rd and July 15th, we’re running daily tournaments that will feed into a weekly event. Your one free shot in one of our daily events is automatic. All you need is an UltimateBet.com username and the UltimateBet.com software. Just load the game and register for the daily tournament of your choice.
    The top 25 players in each daily event will move into our weekly freeroll and 75 players from each weekly freeroll will head to the Million Dollar Freeroll on July 15th."

    -It shows that the top 100 make it to the weekly, but UB website says top 25. Which is correct? Also this comes from the website:

    "That’s because once your one free shot has been used, you can still make your way to our Million Dollar Freeroll by using the UltimatePoints you’ve earned playing at our tables. You need 50 UltimatePoints to enter our daily events, 500 points to enter our weekly events, 5000 points to enter our monthly events, or 30,000 points to make your way directly into our Million Dollar Freeroll on July 15th."

    -I dont see any monthly events. I thought you could win your way into the million dollar freeroll from the weekly events. Also, how do you buy into the weekly event? In the tourney lobby it shows it as an invite and doesnt allow you to use ultimate points like it says. Someone please let me know.

    Look under the ultimate pints tab under free rolls. You can buy into it there. It's probably the easiest way to go. Played a 50 pt tourny today. 34 players top 10 advanced. Very weak players too.

    Under Ultimate Points and then freerolls, however I signed up for the weekly this afternoon, received my email stating i was registered but I was not on the list and the lobby has me locked out from being able to register............so i'm guessing a glitch in their software that can't connect the ultimate points into the regualar tournaments? who knows, but it's playing and I'm not.........

    Good point, I just went to register for the daily and got an error message and no option to pay for it with UltimatePoints. Saw this thread so sent a support request to UB about this and the other items brought to our attention above. Copy of the questions below. I'll update this post when I get a reply.

    Copy of support request to UB:

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA>Some problems and questions about your million dollar freeroll satellites.</SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA> </SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA>Question 1, your web site says that you can enter the million dollar freeroll at a charge of 50 Ultimate Points after you've used up your one free entry.<SPAN> </SPAN>How do you do this?<SPAN> </SPAN>When I tried to register today there was no option to pay for it and it gave me an error message when I tried to enter anyway (presumably because I've used up my one free play).</SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA> </SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA>Question 2, there is also no way to pay 500 UltimatPoints for the weekly, as I described above for the daily.<SPAN> </SPAN>How do you do this?</SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA> </SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA>Question 3, your web site says that there are monthly events but none are listed in the tourney page.<SPAN> </SPAN>Where are they and for what purpose if you can qualify from the weekly?</SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA> </SPAN>

    <SPAN lang=EN-CA>Question 4, your web site says that the top 25 on the daily make it to the weekly but the tourney registration page shows 100.<SPAN> </SPAN>I assume that's an error on your web page?</SPAN>

    It's been a day and still no reply from my support request. Have sent them a followup email, this time to member services. I can't say I'm surprised by the lack of response considering what's been going on with this guys but I am disappointed.
