Bad and good. Ultimate Bet is a great site if you're a casual playerand want to get into real money tournaments for free. It's not thathard to pile up Ultimate Points by playing in their freeroll UltimatePoints Tournament and on their play money tables. I have to say though,that as a guy who has taken college courses in probability, and donewell, I have some reservations about this site. I have a suggestion.Instead of just posting a web page which explains the lengths they goto concerning their random number generator, why don't they prove thatit's actually working properly? Why don't they run some freerolltournaments with the understanding that everyone's complete hand histories will be made public. That way the number crunchers can verifythat 3 to 1 favorites do indeed win 3 out of 4 times. In fact, I wonderwhy they haven't done this already. As a former auditor I know thatthings need to be proven. Just because a lot of care and testing goesinto something doesn't mean it'll work properly. NASA tests its systems, have all the space shuttles returned to earth safely? It wouldbe easy for them to do this and to have an outside source verify thatthey used the same random number generator as they do on their othergames.
