UB’s Show Up, Get Paid promotion asked their qualifiers to turn up in Las Vegas, take their seat at the World Series Of Poker*(“WSOP”*) Main Event, and wear the UB logo. That’s all that it took for UB’s online qualifiers to claim a share of the progressive prize pool that swelled to an impressive $265,000 when each of them chose to join Team UB in Sin City. Even more impressive is they didn’t even have to finish in the money at the WSOP* Championship event to earn the extra dollars in cold, hard, ‘line-your-wallet-with-it’ cash.

“This promotion is amazing and even if you bust out on the first hand, you still make good money,” said Team UB’s highest placed pro player Adam Levy, who finished 12th in the 2010 WSOP* Main Event. “To someone who started from Step 1 at UB and worked it all the way up, that’s a considerable chunk of change.”

With a super cool, new look and style unveiled at the 2010 WSOP*, Team UB was the hottest posse of poker players to hang with at the RIO this year.  Couple this with the site’s WSOP* progressive prize pool, and it proved to be the push UB players were looking for to entice more of them to play the 2010 WSOP* Main Event - 53 of them to be exact, and each of them pocketed a minimum of $3,750 of the Show Up, Get Paid prize money.

Four of them excelled, going deeper in the tournament to cash in the Main Event, and automatically adding a stellar $20,312.50 (including the $3,750) to their WSOP*payouts, compliments of UB.
