Don’t just play with Hellmuth. Beat him.
May 15, 2009
Love him or hate him, it’s everyone’s dream to play poker against Phil Hellmuth. After all, the only thing better than seeing a grown man cry is being the one who actually made him throw that tantrum.
Well your players are in luck all month long because every Tuesday in May, Phil Hellmuth will be playing in a $30+3 No Limit Hold’em online poker tournament at 9:30pm ET. It’s call the Beat the Brat tourney and the player who takes down the Poker Brat will win a seat in UltimateBet’s 50-seat WSOP Guaranteed tourney on June 21st.

That’s a pretty big deal. At least 50 players will walk away with a $12k prize package that includes a seat in the Main Event and a few thousand for travel and accommodations. Right now, over 80 players have won their way to Vegas through UB so that means assuming nobody else wins a seat between now and June, there will be over 130 UB players in Vegas for the Main Event.
But chances are that number will be much, much higher. That’s because aside from June 21st’s 50-seat guaranteed tourney, the online poker site offers your players multiple ways to win a spot in the Main Event through STEP tournaments that go down every day and weekly Super Satellites.
And the best part about winning a trip to Vegas through UltimateBet? Your players will get to hang with Hellmuth, even if they’re the one who made him cry on a random Tuesday in May.

Let your players in on a poker empire
May 8, 2009
The World Series of Poker is always an amazing experience. I mean, what’s not to like? You’ve got some of the world’s most recognizable poker pros going head-to-head with Vegas newbies who’ve never set foot inside a land-based casino before. That’s the beauty of the game. And that’s why I love it. For next to nothing, anybody, anywhere, can hop online and win their way to Vegas to play with giants with a real chance at crushing them.
There’s no better place to do it than at UltimateBet. The online poker site is building a Texas Hold’em empire in Vegas and they want to fill it with your players in a way that won’t even cost them a quarter.
For just a dime, online poker players can grab a World Series of Poker Main Event seat and money to get there and stay there for as little as 10 cents through UB’s STEP tournament. I know, I know. Just 10 cents. Crazy. That’s why promoting UB to your cost-conscious players is such a good idea. When they find out that they can win a trip to Vegas for about a tenth of the cost of a cheap cup of coffee, they won’t want to play anywhere else. As an affiliate, that means higher profits for you.
Your players can also snag a Main Event seat through weekly Super Satellites and the online poker site’s 50-seat WSOP Guarantee on June 21st. So spread the word to your players, new and old, and watch the money roll in.
