Effective January 1 2009 Ultimate Bet has started paying affiliates for their player’s tournament entry fees.  This means that affiliates and players alike now benefit from playing tournaments on Ultimate Bet as players now get rakeback on these fees as well.  For years this has made Ultimate Bet a tough selling point to some players as there are quite a few players out there that play tournaments for most if not all of their action.  If those types of players already had an account without rakeback at Absolute Poker this meant they could not play on Cereus and get rakeback on their play.  This is huge news for all affiliates that promote Ultimate Bet as well as players looking to get rakeback on tournaments on Cereus.  This has already been added to the PAS News Feed and default review pages for PAS sites but if you have not opted into the news or write your own content make sure to find some ways to get this news to your players.  This leaves Merge Gaming as the last rakeback friendly network that does not pay rakeback or MGR on tournaments.
