Another week has passed, and more prizes have been given out at Ultimate Bet! Every week, Ultimate Bet awards its players with tournament credits and the chance to play heads up with a UB pro for $1,000 or more!
If you recall in last week‘s article, mross01 shot up from 12th place to win the week and was scheduled to take on UB pro Mark “P0ker H0” Kroon for $3,000. The Ultimate Bet pro’s have been on a rush as of late, winning the last 2 matches, bumping the $1,000 up to $3,000. Well, that was no different this week, and Kroon defeated mross01, keeping the streak alive and increasing next week’s prize pool! Too bad for mross01, but still a great effort and the $1,000 will be added to next Sunday’s game. P0ker H0 has been handling these top MTT pros very well!
Last Wednesday, I showed the current top 10 for the week of June 1 – June 7, and EddyTown21 was sitting in 1st place with 205.98 points. He had a great start to the week, but was by no means guaranteed the win! In second place, royalkc was behind by just one point, and others, such as scottyclark, weren’t far behind either. Could EddyTown21 hold on to the lead? Let’s have a look at the results (to view to complete top 50, check out the June 10th Archive):
scottyclark 374.27 – $4,000 Heads-Up Match
punko 281.26 – $100 TC
blunttman4200 257.79 – $100 TC
gray99 243.10 – $100 TC
krej 241.47 – $100 TC
mattpat 238.80 – $100 TC
Bugga1224 237.89 – $100 TC
shipaholic 236.17 – $100 TC
spades27 226.25 – $100 TC
travelerjbjb 220.17 – $100 TC
Just how does this guy do it? Once again, scottyclark proves his continuing dominance by winning the weekly UB MTT Leaderboard! Last week, he was sitting comfortably in 6th place with 162.05 points, and finished very strong at 374.27. 2nd place finishe, punko, was 93 points behind which was quite the lead. EddyTown21 was unable to add any points at all to his starting lead, and finished in 14th place. Other players such as blunttman4200 in 3rd, krej in 5th, and spades27 in 9th are no strangers to the top 10 either; each having a few top 10 finishes in the past. However, all eyes are on scottyclark once again! This is his 4th win in 8 weeks which is just completely sick.
With this win, scottyclark will be playing this Sunday against a UB pro (currently unknown who) for $4,000! I have to put my money on scottyclark to take home some serious cash! Congratulations to scottyclark, yet again!
Now moving on to the current week, June 8 – June 14, a new name is in the lead, with some old friends not far behind (to see the complete to 50, check out the June 11th Archive):
wheresmydrew 209.79
KC_KID 162.96
fajzher 151.20
CptMotorBoat 148.30
scottythefish 148.04
piscato77 145.52
scottyclark 120.28
TheTartan1 120.25
punko 110.87
BAM11586 100.38
Currently, wheresmydrew is the top dog with 209.79 points. This is the first time I have noticed him in the top 10, and 1st place is a great spot to debut in! There are also a lot of new faces, pretty much everyone except the UB destroyer, scottyclark, in 7th place. We have seen scottyclark come back from worse and win multiple weeks in a row, but for now the pressure is on wheresmydrew. Let’s see if this newcomer can hold on to his lead!
Be sure to check back next week to see the result of scottyclark’s $4,000 heads up match, and for the final results of June 8 – June 14th! Also, if you can’t wait and want to follow the action, check out the Ultimate-Bet Network page where you can find daily updated results under Poker Leaderboards.
