The site is now available in Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish, French Canadian, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, Czech, Japanese, Chinese and German.
'The language of poker is universal,' said George MacLean, Spokeperson for UltimateBet.com.
'We're thrilled to make our non-English speaking poker players feel more comfortable at our Texas Hold 'em tables and we're excited to make it easier for new players around the world to connect with our poker community.'

MacLean stated that the multicultural makeup of the online poker community was particularly evident at the 2007 Aruba Poker Classic, UltimateBet.com's island-based poker tournament. Poker players from every corner of the world congregated in Aruba for the site's land-based tournament and he said that he expects no different at the 2008 tournament, which is scheduled for September 27.
