Ultimate Poker is the first online poker site for the state of Nevada and has been available for real money game play since April. The online poker site is available to Nevada residents and visitors only and recently began their first online poker championship. The 10th of October signified the first event of the Ultimate poker Championship and now the series is in full swing.
Several events have already taken place and beginning this week, seven more events will take place. One for each day of the week. The series will continue until the 20th of the month, when the main event is set to begin. The main event is a No Limit Hold’em Megastack and will have a buy-in of $300. The main event will have a guarantee of $100,000 and is a nice size prize pool for the site to offer in its first online championship.
The online poker site is also offering a special deal for all winners of the series events. The winner of each event will earn a special watch customized by Ultimate Poker and each winner will take part in the UPC 1 Leaderboard challenge. The winner of this challenge will earn a seat to the UPC 2 in every event. So essentially if you do well in the first series, you could be sitting pretty for the next round of game play when the series comes back again!
The full schedule of events can be found at the Ultimate Poker website, so if you find yourself in the Nevada area over the next few days, be sure to participate! Each event is scheduled for 6:00 pm and will have an hour open for late registration. This gives players plenty of time to get in and compete for a chance at winning guaranteed cash as well as a shot at earning seats to the next UPC series!
