In 2008 two of the biggest names in online poker merged together to create the 3rd largest poker network online. Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet have become household names among players. The CEREUS Poker Network, which is owned by Tokwiro Enterprises, offers two unique software programs for players to choose from. During the initial planning, the company decided they didn’t want any major interruptions to their existing player base by supporting only one platform however they wanted to increase and maintain a high level of traffic by supporting the player base from both sites combined. This is why you’ll find the Absolute Poker room to be distinctively different in appearance from the Ultimate Bet poker room even though they are on the same network. Below you will find some of the key benefits of this merger not to mention that because of the combined efforts of both CEREUS poker sites, the prize pool in the network wide progressive bad beat jackpot has grown significantly and now awards six figure jackpots on a regular basis.

By far the biggest benefit, and the main reason Tokwiro Enterprises merged the two sites onto one is it provides players with an above average volume of traffic consistently throughout the day. It’s because of this traffic that the two poker sites, both Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet are able to schedule massive tournaments and nonstop ring game action 24/7. With a broader spread in limits and the super sized progressive bad beat jackpot, the two poker sites combined have taken the CEREUS Network to the next level. With the release of the CEREUS Poker Network also came new and anticipated features that weren’t available prior to its release. This included the popular deal making options for tournament players along with advanced statistics and increase level of security to ensure games are fair and safe.

With multiple table view options, to the easy to use interface, the software is often depicted as one of the sleekest platforms out there for Mac and Windows players. Ultimate Bet on the other hand is full of features and options for players to take advantage of. With an above average selection of games a fully loaded and completely customizable lobby to their branded games such as Elimination Blackjack, the Ultimate Bet poker room features just about every feature and option a beginner or a veteran player could ask for including customized skins.
It is because of this diversity that the CEREUS Poker Network is able to provide that they continue to top the charts. With more than 10,000 players online during peak hours and 3000+ on average involved in cash games, the CEREUS poker sites have plenty to offer the avid player. Besides their significant differences in appearance the two rooms also use their own promotions and run separate tournaments. Absolute Poker’s biggest event is their weekly $150,000 guarantee, whereas Ultimate Bet runs a weekly $200K. Players will also receive different bonuses and VIP programs once you decide which platform you prefer to play on. Regardless of that decision, you can at least know that the merger of Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet to the CEREUS Poker Network has enabled them to provide you with a better level of service that’s unparallel to many of the other sites online.
