Online poker site UB.com wrapped its 12-day UBOC schedule yesterday in super exciting style, welcoming 1,307 players to the UBOC Championship $1,000+50 buy-in event hosted by legend of the game, Phil Hellmuth. With a $1,307,000 prize pool on the table, the battle for the Championship title promised to be fierce from the get go, and proved a fitting finale to this year’s UBOC online series, UB’s most impressive and richest tournament line-up in the online poker site’s 10-year history.

"This years UBOC brought me out in full force. I played in almost every event, cashed four times, and had two top nine finishes,” stated Phil Hellmuth. “What a way to end the best online championship poker series ever. UBOC 4’s final $1 million Guaranteed paid out over $1.3 million and the tournament was unbelievably gripping, just like every single second of the 18-event series. It’s going to be tough to top this.”
