Details

UB.com, formerly known as UltimateBet, has their own online championship tournament series to compete with the FTOPS and WCOOP found on other sites. In January of 2010, the site promoted 'UBOC4' which featured $4 million in guaranteed prize money, two of which were $1 million guaranteed tournaments. All in all there were 18 UBOC events including Hold'em, Omaha, HORSE and other events.

Mini-UBOC

For players that cannot afford the bankroll requirements to play in regular UBOC events, the site also has the Mini-UBOC. These are tournaments that mirror the UBOC, but at approximately 10% of the buy-ins.
