Saying goodbye to 2010 means saying hello to 2011. It is a great time to play on US friendly poker sites because UBOC 6 has arrived. The latest UB Online Championship has 29 events including the $1 million Championship Event and a $750k High Roller event. 29 people will receive an exclusive UBOC watch, and if you were a winner in UBOC 2010, you have the Tournament of Champions to look forward to. If you were thinking about using flash Texas Holdem, now is definitely the time!
January 16th is when things kicked off with the No Limit Hold’em Deep Stack event for $500+$30. Yesterday featured the first Omaha event, so you were able to put your skills to the test and see if that free Omaha poker video paid off. If you are best at heads-up games, you have Event 13 to look forward to, but be sure to plan ahead because there is no late registration for this event.
The High Roller event is a $2,100 buy-in and takes place on January 23rd. The Championship Event is on January 30th and features a $1,050 buy-in. If you are inexperienced on the best US poker sites and find that these stakes are way out of your bankroll, you can always play qualifiers to the events. If you don’t mind working your way up, you can qualify via Step Satellites for as little as $0.10!
The other option for people just starting with the top Texas Holdem sites is Mini-UBOC. Mini-UBOC mirrors the UBOC events but the buy-ins are much smaller. Obviously the prize pools will be much smaller as well, but first place in all the events will still be a handsome addition to your bankroll!
A lot of people have been waiting extremely impatiently for UBOC 6 to finally come around, so be sure to take advantage of it. If you prefer an Apple laptop, that is no problem since they made Ultimate Bet for Mac. Have fun chasing a UBOC watch!
