It is likely that you are operating an older version of Internet Explorer. Our system requires version 5.5 or above to operate. Download the latest version of Internet Explorer.

From the main screen at the game tables, click on the 'Options' button located near the bottom, right side of the game screen. Click on Table Options. Here you can turn animation and sounds off or on.

If you lose your Internet connection, or have a problem with your computer, you will have at least 30 seconds to complete your turn.
If your connection isn't restored within 30 seconds, you might be considered "all-in," which would make you eligible to win the portion of the pot that existed at the time you disconnected. Any subsequent bets will result in a side pot. If at the end of the hand you have the winning cards, you win the initial pot. The side pot will be awarded to the next best hand.

If you don't have money in the pot, and already used both of your all-ins in the allotted time period, or you simply time out of your turn (as opposed to disconnecting), your hand will just be folded. The all in rule only applies to real money games.

The recommended minimum system requires are as follows:
PC: Windows 98/Me/2000/NT/XP
Modem: 28.8K modem connection speed
Processor: Pentium 200mHz
RAM: 32MB
Sound Cards: not required but makes experience more interesting
Screen Resolution: 800x600 at 16-bit color or better
Browser: Microsoft Explorer 5.5 or higher
Disk Space: 20MB

Some security programs have been designed to have a bundled firewall which is not always visible from the main screen of the security software. Please write down a list of the programs you have installed on your PC and e-mail this list to our Technical Support department so we can provide you with further assistance.

Certain firewalls record the program's data size, as well as the name of the program that is "allowed" into its program list. When our software is updated, the data size changes, and so even though the programs are "allowed" they are still being blocked.

To correct this, remove all UltimateBet programs from your firewall's program list. Once done, reboot your computer and reconfigure the firewall, this time re-adding all the UB programs to the "allowed" program list using the firewall instructions via any of the links above.

See more detailed instructions on our firewalls section.
