| I have been checking out all of the On-Line Poker rooms. Deciding on which one to play. I checked out Ultimate Bet after reading TKarrde's post. I really liked Ultimate Bet .... Except ... It annoys the CRAP out of me that they won't show the "pot amount" at all times. You have to mouse over to see it. The same with betting amounts. In No Limit you want to know this quick! Now I know that I am anal retentive (With a dash of OCD) ... BUT ... we all know how important "Pot Odds" are, so why would they not make it "easy" to see. I don't get it? Does ANYONE share this gripe with me, or am I on my own here???? Scrubbie "The comforting thing about bad beats, is there is always another one around the corner to make you forget about the one you just had!!!" Please Note: I am aware the have an option to change to a "Mini View" which does show the Pot Amount. Only, then you don't have the traditional table view, which I much prefer. | ||

| Well you can see the bet amount at all times by looking at the "call X" button which displays how much you have to call at any given moment. As for the amount that is in the pot, you can see the chips stacked up there so you should be able to figure out roughly how much is in there without checking explicitly - in which case you could mouse over it. Meh...never caused a problem for me at any rate. | ||

| Scrubbie: While I do find that annoying, I have no problem using my mouse to figure it out. And the amount of fun I am having at UB right now (had been playing at Pokerroom predominantly) far outweighs that annoyance. I have just started playing the NL games and didn't play any at Poker Room so I don't have anything else to compare it to. Basically though, UB is a blast I think. Great action and in general I like the software. Much more NL oriented then the other websites, it seems. | ||

| Scrubs... I always play in mini mode so I can play multiple hands. So I haven't really noticed I guess. Calcualte pot odds?? Why you wanna do that? Either you are gonna win or you aren't. LOL What is your UB userid... I'll watch for ya. TKarrde "You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never to get involved in a land war in Asia.

| I'll give you three guess what my UserID is, and your first two don't count. I kinda figured I would be on my own on this one. I really like the gooey at Planet Poker for their Tournaments. Except it would be nice to see where you are in relationship to the field. Bottom line, I like one thing from each Poker Room. I would love to combine them all to make ... Scrubbie's Casino! Woo Hoo (OK, I will stop whining) I haven't played a Tourney at Ultimate yet. I am signed up for the Freeroll on Saturday. Hope to check ya their sometime.

| This has never bothered me in the slightest. On the other hand, UB's hand history feature is the best I've seen out of all the online cardrooms. Just click the button and up pops the history. You can change the hand number to get histories for other hands as well. Furthermore, you can find out the cards that other players have mucked. Most other online cardrooms will e-mail you histories, but won't display them right away like this. I likes I likes I likes. | ||

| You can find out the cards that a player mucked? I haven't messed with the hand history much. That is cool. TKarrde "You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders!

| Yes, that is a cool feature. (That was another thing I disliked about Party. They require it to be e-mailed) You want that kind of information quick and easy. OK ... I have decided it!! I am gong to start my own Casino, and combine all of the cool features from all of the different sites! .... NOW, can anyone lend me a million bucks and a friend who speaks Aruban???
