No this is not the same as the controversy that caused such a stir but something a little different.It is the story of a freeroll.This morning a good friend and poker buddy told me the story of a $750 freeroll he was invited to play at Ultimate Bet.He decided not to play but went by later to see what was going on.He sent me a snapshot of one table and the leaderboard for this tourney.There were 3916 players registered for this tournament.As it seems is customary during there tournaments at the 30/60 blind level all inactive players are eliminated.In the snapshot there were 218 players left,218th place was out of the tourney.Below this every player had finished 3906th place.This tourney was to pay 200 places,within in 15 minutes of this snapshot the tourney was shutdown,could not be searched and nobody was paid a dime.Granted it was only a freeroll is this the kind if thing UB is going to do?When is someone going to do something about them.

I told my Mom and she said she'd take care of it...
Seriously, there is no someone that can do anything about it except for the players themselves. By that I mean don't play on the site. $$ or the loss of it catches the most attention. As long as there are players willing to play on a site no matter what occurs on the site, there is no reason for the site to change its SOP.
I haven't played UB for years because of all the controversy.

Just another KITNs. You'll get used to them.

Lol,your funny Dave.I agree there is probably no somebody that can do anything about it.I agree and I also no longer play there either because of the controversy.Is truly donkey heaven.They say if you can't beat them join them,well cannot join them so had to stop playing there.Anymore between UB and the bs I have seen recently at Pokerstars,seems better to drive to Tampa and play at the Hard Rock,price of gas though is not easy on the wallet either.
