If you look over the tournament listings at UltimateBet you'll see the word "guaranteed" a lot. No matter the size of your bankroll, you can play poker every night at UB and know that you could pull down a nice chunk of change with a win. It doesn't matter how many players actually register--the guarantee means there's a minimum prize pool for you and your soon-to-be-victims to divvy up. There are guaranteed poker tournaments with buy-ins as low as a dollar--last night's $500 event had 433 players and paid out $125 to our winner, greg9293. Not a bad return on his investment, and an affordable way to sharpen your tournament chops.
And now UltimateBet is offering three more weekly guaranteed events to those who have built up their bankrolls and skills. UB is guaranteeing an additional $90,000 in three new tourneys, and here's the schedule:
- On Tuesdays and Thursdays there will be a new $25,000 guaranteed tournament with a buy-in of $200+15. These events start at 9:30pm ET
- On Sundays there will be a $40,000 guaranteed event with a buy-in of $500+30. The starting time on Sundays will be 8:30pm ET.
Of course, it's not guaranteed that you're going to WIN. Let's not get silly.
