UltimateBet Signs Two Pro Poker Players To Deflect The Heat



Saturday 7th June 2008

Hot on the tails of the latest cheating scandal in the Poker industry, UltimateBet has announced the capture of two Poker professionals in the shape of Eric ‘Rizen’ Lynch and Cliff ‘JohnnyBax’ Josephy. The company was recently caught up in a cheating scandal and received a serious rap on the knuckles from the regulators, even though the problems occurred under the previous management.

This latest move is seen by many as an ideal way to take some of the heat off UltimateBet and place the emphasis fairly and squarely on the future. While the two players involved have had their decisions questioned by a number of sector observers, they too seem to be looking to the future. Finally it seems that UltimateBet can put the past behind it and look towards building on the tarnished reputation of a once leading light in the Poker industry.

The online Poker industry can be a very unforgiving sector and UltimateBet is sure to have a big task attracting customers to the site after the recent scandal. It seems that the sign-up of these two professional players may well be the last roll of the dice for the group.
