used a yahoo search of "ultimatebet" to find ultimatebet's homepage. clicked the first link and it brought me to empire poker. strange, no?

Is it an affiliate's link? That wouldn't surprise me at all.

Searching for most poker sites on most search engines will bring up a whole heap of affiliate gibberish.

Yahoo no longer uses google, they are now competing with google with their own search engine

"Yahoo! search is powered by Google"

No it isn't. It used to be but I think they now use Inktomi or their own proprietary search.

Did you click on a sponsored search result?
