what application do you need to download ultimate bet, its a online poker game

Looks like you have to download a windows executable file. That won't work in Linux (Ubuntu is Linux). Unless they offer a Linux client you probably can't use it. There is the possibility of it working with WINE which is a tool that allows some windows programs to run. You can install it from add/remove and give it a try.

Yea Wine usually works for most of my windows stuff (except xfire) so that should probably work
