Yes, it is a real bitch to unlock the money, but it's where I do 90% of my playing so it works for me.

Man o man, you are right. Gonna take me forever to clear. Cleared the Interpoker one in a little over an evening of two tabling the limit tables. About 750 hands to get the 500 raked ones. Got a couple minor bad beats, chased too much, and played too loose preflop, but was able to withdraw 250 from my 200 deposit. But the UltimateBet one is gonna take awhile.
I played the .25/.50 limit for awhile, then went and played the .50/1.00 limit tables at UltimateBet. It seemed to me that I was gaining points faster playing at the .25/.50 tables. It might be that people were playing alot tighter at the .50/1.00 one, but did anyone else notice that they gained faster at the .25/.50 limit tables, than they do at the .50/1.00 limit tables? Just curious. Maybe it just seemed that way because I kept watching the numbers. I'll be playing again tonight, so if anyone wants me to keep track how many points I get in waht period of time, playing what tables, let me know and I'll post again tommorrow.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound like I didn't like it. I like playing there, also you can use the points for different things. I want to stay to get a shirt. I got a couple things from PS. I'm kinda jealous that I didn't get an email for a PP hat or shirt like some people have gotten.
But I like UltimateBet, I don't have a large bankroll, so I like the lower stake limit games they have to choose from too and still earn points. I might end up playing there regularly, except when i go bonus clearing somewhere else. But I agree with mike4066, this was a good one to post.

thanks to someone's earlier advice, i withdrew a chunk of money from UB yesterday and redeposited it today, instantly getting the 50% bonus. sweet... i still can't believe they have no way of preventing people from blatantly whoring them like this.
now, i'm wondering if i can take the next, even slimier, step... can i withdraw the money i just deposited and still keep the bonus dollars? i can't find anything about that on UB's site.

p.s., the ultimatepoints club is actually pretty cool. once you accumulate a few hundred points, you can go into the 10/20-point limit HE table and quickly turn it into thousands. people don't play seriously there all... it's almost as bad as the play chip tables. so you can easily win a hat or shirt or book within a few days. unfortunately, during a recent server upgrade, they lost all of the higher stakes ultimatepoint tables, so it is now physically impossible to accumulate the millions of points required to win the harley or the aruba trip. unless you play no limit of course.

Chez,
Yes you can withdraw the money you just deposited. I do this all the time. Will deposit to get the bonus, then withdraw that money. I wait atleast 24 hours to withdraw, just to be on the safe side.

Yes, it was 100 when I did it. I only had enough not tied up to get 50. I should've waited the few days until a withdrawal got into my Netteller from Interpoker. It's taking me awhile to get the 500 points to clear the 50 though. I'm looking now where to go next with about $400, to bonus whore somewhere else. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be greatful if you let me know. Thanks again, to everyone on this site, and the site itself for all the info to make playing more fun and profitable.

I may this sound pretty dumb but if they offer 10,000 for 1,000,000 Up points that sounds fairly easy to get playing on the tables considering if they are as easy as play money tables you could parlay a thousand into several million like I did on pary poker play money??
