Pokerscraper.com offers 30% rakeback (contributed) with UltimateBet, and a 111% first deposit bonus up to $1100. The contributed rakeback system (as opposed to the dealt rakeback system) is more advantageous for loose-aggressive players than for tight players, because rakeback per player is calculated based on the amount of rake that a given player paid, and not simply divided up equally among all players seated at a table. This makes some sometimes disliked play styles such as short-stacking, much less profitable, and thus cuts down on the number of such players; more action is generally conducive to better games.

The contributed rakeback system that UltimateBet employs makes the site a good choice for loose aggressive players, and helps to discourage short-stackers from "rakeback whoring". MTT fields can get very large, similar to those at FTP and PokerStars.

UltimateBet is one of the largest and most recognizable names out there as far as online poker rooms. It is on the Cereus network (its sister site is Absolute Poker) and hosts a large number of players for ring games as well as MTTs. The software is quite good, certainly setting it apart from the "riff raff". A number of interesting features are available on the site, such as the "seven deuce" game that was perhaps made widely popular by the TV program High Stakes Poker.

Although the room suffered from probably one of the most infamous online poker cheating scandals while under past ownership, present ownership has since begun to make substantial efforts to clear UB's name, including bringing on Joe Sebok in order to help "make things right". Ultimate bet is also home to the "poker brat" Phil Hellmuth. UltimateBet logos are a visible presence in almost all televised online poker events today.
