UltimateBet Online Poker Site Launches New Point Redemption Store

Redeem your poker points to be a fighter pilot for a day!! Come experience the thrill of air to air combat with Air Combat USA, the original civilian dog fighting school.

Playing online poker just got even more rewarding. UltimateBet – http://www.ultimatebet.com/ - today announced the launch of its revamped online points redemption store, giving players even more reason to play at one of the industry’s most popular poker sites.

“Our revolutionary new store is going blow the minds of our players and blow our competitors away,” stated UltimateBet spokesperson George MacLean. “Online poker players have only dreamed of a point redemption store half as good as this. We’re thrilled to exceed everyone’s expectations tenfold with UltimatePointsStore.com and we apologize to our competition for making them look bad.”

Players can use the new website – UltimatePointsStore.com – to redeem the UltimatePoints they’ve earned by playing online poker at UltimateBet.com. Points can be exchanged for electronics, home merchandise, sports equipment, lifestyle adventures and virtually anything else you can think of.

While iPods, LCD TVs, laptop computers, digital cameras, watches and online poker apparel will likely round out the list of the point redemption site’s most popular items, UltimatePointsStore.com brings to the table a lot more than just gear and gadgets.

Guaranteed to be a hit is the ‘Fighter Pilot For A Day’ package that puts online poker players in the cockpit of a Marchetti SF260 for the ultimate air combat experience. If relaxation is the biggest adrenaline rush you can take, you can opt to exchange your points for a spa getaway package.

According to MacLean, UltimateBet is recognizing the diversity of their players in age, gender and lifestyle. This new point redemption site allows their players to get what they really want out of their online poker experience.

UltimatePoints are earned at UltimateBet.com for time played at the tables, by playing in real money tournaments and for every raked hand. UltimatePoints are also paid out in freeroll tournaments, high hand jackpots, through participation in customer surveys, bonuses, awards and other special events. Details on the UltimatePoints system can be found at UltimateBet.com.
