Re: is UB the place for a beginner?
[ QUOTE ]
At the .05/.10 limit holdem full-table on UB you earn roughly 1 ulitmate point for every 20 hands played. Sometimes more, sometimes less hands. For every 10 ultimate points you get $1. (should equal 1 BB per ultimate point)

Does this $1/10 UB points count in the higher games too? I haven't been there all month so I might've missed if this was new.
Fwiw...I started my current roll on the UB .01-.02 table a couple years ago. Psychologically, if you have to, just move the decimal point over 2 or 3 to the right if you need. One thing I really noticed was the effect of having no rake. I even bluffed a pot and got it once. Yes, the guy couldn't call 2 friggin' cents.

I would think this would be a great place to start someone off at playing.

It's a great place to start. It doesn't really take that long to build a roll with persistent play. It's like getting paid, albeit not much, for playing play money.
