100% Initial Deposit Bonus up to $500 - Don't miss out!
There is nothing quite like real money poker. If you've been waiting to deposit, do it this week between Thursday and Sunday. First time depositors can pocket up to $500 Free! with our 100% matching bonus. The bonus is huge and the clock is ticking. Deposit Now! click for details.
The graphic on the webpage has yet to be changed as I type this, but the text now refers to the increased bonus amount - no expiry date given as yet.

I think when they say "If you've been waiting to deposit, do it this week between Thursday and Sunday." they are insinuating that the $500 initial bonus is only being offered during that time period. However, this is not stated explicitly. | | Static Link |

why the big fuss? or am i missing something?
Well, with a RB deal you get partial credit even when clearing the bonus so that helps. Also, if you are like me and been doing this for a long time your running out of startup bonuses to work on.
With the change from dealt to contributed on OnGame Network, those bonuses are now terrible (they were bad before but b/c they had such terrible players I would still work on them) and that removes a lot of bonuses I had lined up.
If your a USA player this is one of the few sites you can actually play on, especially if your from one of the "banned 11" (although this doesn't apply to me specifically, it is a reason to be interested in the UB bonus).
With their weekly UB points for cash promo (name escapes me at the moment) if you can clear 2000 UB points in a week you can trade them in for 7.5 cents per point, which at 2000 points is $150 extra p... | | Read Entire Entry |

I only deposited $500 b/c it said $350 max, but I received $500 in bonus dollars....so if any were planning to sign up and were turned off by the change...you still have time. | | Static Link |

Bad news for US-based players but status quo for everyone else if that info is true. I haven't played at UB in a while and definitely wouldn't be going back if they were deducting more rakeback from non-Americans too. As it is, I'm not sure if continuing to play there is going to be worth it if they alienate much of their target customer base...

Gonzo, glad to see you're still around.
Do you know if UB is going to be offerring their normal every 3-weekly reload. Did they do the T$ reload in lieu of the normal reload. Just curious.
I hope so man, but they seem to be trending away from the cash bonuses don't they? I kind of wish I would have been better about depositing for the reloads, as U.S. player's options are diminishing (especially being from a "banned state"). That being said, I really like their tournament bonus, and I don't really see it as a replacement for their regular bonus, especially when they are probably losing money on this offer.
One thing I'm worried about.... AP owns UB. Ho... | | Read Entire Entry |
| Posted by: Tiburon at February 21, 2007, 10:01 pm | | Topic: UB Bonus now only $350 Forum: Bonus Whores | Apparently they are still giving the 650 bonus even though they are advertising a 350 bonus. Check out this thread.
