PocketFiver "xracer624" Wins WSOP Package on Ultimate Bet

By P5s Staff

The PocketFives.com WSOP Giveaway on UltimateBet attracted 223 players, who competed for an added WSOP Package in a $20+$2 private tournament on Saturday.  When all the dust had settled after four hours of play, P5'er "xracer624" came out on top and took home $1,160 -- plus a 2008 WSOP Main Event package!

UltimateBet has recently revamped its online tournament schedule; placing guarantees on a wide range of weekday tournaments in order to attract members of the online poker community.  Known for its deep-stacked tournament structure and rapid-fire virtual dealer, UB has been the home for quite a few loyal P5'ers since our site's inception in early 2005.

Big name professional poker player and mainstream celebrity Annie Duke has recently participated in forum threads addressing customer concerns and suggestions regarding play at Ultimate Bet.  To find out more about UB's revamped tournament schedule and guaranteed prize pools, along with information on deposit bonuses and WSOP satellite tournaments, visit UltimateBet.  Congratulations to all P5'ers who cashed in the PocketFives.com WSOP Giveaway on UB, and we look forward to seeing "xracer624" at the series and covering his progress on PocketFivesLive.com!

UB did a great job of ruining their tourney schedule, most their guarantees now are Turbos, and the Genius Short Stack Turbo Guarantees are a joke of a crapshoot

I agree. UB used to be one of my favorite sites until they screwed up their tourneys. Annie never plays on UB anyways. Why not let some of the loyal players have some input?
