Home to recognizeable names such as Phil Hellmuth and Annie Duke, UB has partnered with Absolute Poker to form the Cereus Network, one of the largest poker rooms online.
UB has a strong cash game lobby that offers a variety of low to mid stakes no limit holdem cash games. PLO players will find some action at the lower stakes, but the games thin out a bit as the stakes increase. Limit holdem players should have no trouble getting a game at lower stakes, and the site supports several non-traditional games as well.
The tournament lobby at UB offers a number of options for the low to mid stakes player. You’ll frequently find tournaments offering overlays or added money on UB, adding to the value you get from your rakeback deal. UB also offers frequent reload bonuses, creating even more value for the player.
What is Rakeback?
Poker rooms take a small cut of each pot, called the 'rake'. Some rooms offer 'rakeback', where they return part of the rake you pay, as a way to attract players. Still have questions? Watch this brief video explaining rakeback.
How Much Can I Make?
Rakeback can amount to anywhere from hundreds to tens of thousands of dollars a year. Use our rakeback calculator to estimate how a rakeback deal could be worth for you.
Why Get Rakeback Through PTP?
Three words: Reputation, Rates and Rewards. We've paid millions in rakeback to thousands of players, offer the highest rakeback rates available and have a rewards program that lets you earn merchandise on top of your rakeback payments.
Can I Get Rakeback From The Room Directly?
Generally, no. If you could, then they'd have to give it to everyone. Instead, rooms keep rakeback 'quiet' by only offering it through officially approved affiliates like us.
I Already Have an Account at This Room. Can I Still Get Rakeback?
Policies vary from room to room. Use the form at the bottom of this page to submit your existing account for conversion to rakeback.
