Ultimate Poker was the talk of the town for two years running, but it would take a miracle for the company to become one of the big stories of 2015.

Ultimate was one of the biggest stories of 2013 thanks to the historic launch of Ultimate Poker. The company launched the first legal, fully licensed online poker room in the United States on April 30, 2013, forever etching their name in the poker annals.

Ultimate Poker was one of the biggest stories of 2014 as well, but for reasons the company, its employees, and its investors would just as soon forget.
