Turn Play Money into Real Money
 
if u ever go broke, you can play play moeny sit and goes on pokerhost for real money if you get first place.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 03:40 PM

not worth it
 

this is soo not worth the time its a 80k buy in for a $3 1st place or a like 200k buy in for a $5 1st place. You could make more danceing on the streets.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 03:43 PM

but you dont have to build up your play money you can buy into tournies, then b4 it fills up go to the cashier, ask for more play chips, then unregister from the tourny. you can repeat this as many times as you want so its not that time consuming, and a good way to make a few bucks if you are broke at the moment, like me.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 03:46 PM

nope
 

wrong once again my young friend....u can request 5k play chips and cant reload it until it drops below 200. The buy in for the sit and gos is 80k therefore you need to make 75k before you enter them. Not worth it.

there are cheaper sit and gos but those arnt the ones that pay out real money. Take you about 2 hours to build the roll to 80K then another hour to win the sit and go assuming you win it so your makeing $5 for 3 hours work.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 03:51 PM

but when you buy into ANY sit and go those chips disappear from your account, lettign you request more chips. you dont actaully have to play any sit and goes, you can work your way up to 80k without playing.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 03:54 PM

lol
 

did you honestly look at what u just typed before you typed it? What the hell are you gonna do enter 40 sit and go's hope none of them start so you can withdraw all the money that tied up in there. Im sorry kkirk not trying to be mean but that is about the dumbest thing you have ever written. Why do you think the games never fill up?

lets simplify this for you.

enter sit and go for 5k then request 5k from system.
5k in sit and go and 5k in cashier.

enter 2nd sit and go and request 5k from cashier.
whops 1st sit and go started that 5k is gone

do you understand why you will never make 80K doing this. As long as you have more then 200 chips in cashier you cant request more. its impossible to enter 14 sit and goes and get out of them before any start.

Let's not get crazy Brian. I can start looking up old threads if need be.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:00 PM

I know
 

I know Ive said some dumb things also but come on thats crazy.

maybe I missunderstood him but the way he is putting it blows my mind.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 04:02 PM

it is possible just wait till there are no people and then join get the money and quit.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:06 PM

nope
 

your not getting it and im getting a headace trying to explain so Ill let someone else try. Ok one last attempt do you understand that once you withdraw from that sit and go the money goes back to account meaning you now have 10k in your account. Then you have to join 2 sit and go's to be able to request a refill, eventully your gonna have to join 13 sit and go's at once in order to get the last 5k you need to reach 80k.

Since you have this great big plan out can you let me borrow some money since you will be playing them all for free you should have tons within say a week?
hell if your gonna make so much doing them you could just give it to me. If this was possible dont you think more people would be playing them, since I havent seen one fill up in a hour I doubt it?

seriously though im done with this thread, the little brain cells I have I would like to keep.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 04:08 PM

you can just join higher buy in sit and gos, i dont see whats that complicated, and i was just letting you guys know its free money, if you are bored and dont have any cash, not every1 that reads here has 1000s of dollars in all the sites.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:13 PM

last post
 

this is last post, go look at the site and look at the buy in for the sit and go's. they dont have 5k, 10k, 15k ones for that exact reason they have like 3k 8k then 20k then 100k ones for a reason. Id love to see you try though. so you buy in for the 3k one and have 2k left in account what do you expect to do with that 2k so you can get more chips from cashier?

I dont have thousands online either but hell I wont even waste that much effort for $5.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 04:21 PM

you could easily sit in a game, bet 2k and just leave, i dunno i had a few people tell me to try this i jsut wanted to see what you guys thought.

PShabi 06-28-05 04:22 PM

Uhhh, I was referring to your statement that this was the dumbest thing Kirk has ever said.

We all know you've said dumber!!!!!! :D

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:24 PM

lol
 

better watch out dont want to have to get Kirk to take you out.

Hey did you ever give back Kirk his $25 you stole?

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:25 PM

better things to do
 

dont you have some books to read or something? you could of learned so much in that 1 minute you used to write that.

BlibbityBlabbity 06-28-05 04:50 PM

I was going through the process Kirk described to give these a try when they first started. It IS possible to do by buying into multiple sit and goes of varying denominations to build up to the 80,000 buyin for the real money.

You might get stuck in one now and then, but for the most part noone really plays the play money sit and goes there anyway, so the people sitting at the table are likely just there doing this same process and will be gone in a minute or two.

The whole process to get to 80,000 takes about 5 minutes....

The game is a COMPLETE crapshoot! I won $9 in them before I realized how rediculous the waste of time really was, since you have to deposit before you can withdraw ANYTHING, and after you deposit you have to unlock anything you won before the deposit at $1/$2 tables and up.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 04:58 PM

ok
 

ok I stand partially corrected is possible but still a waste of time.

what do you do with the extra money in account like the 2k from 1st sit and go. I will never try this but im just wondering.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 04:59 PM

if your broke its not.

BrianSwa 06-28-05 05:01 PM

me
 

id rather be broke and play in PP freeroll at chance at $1,000 then try to win $3.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 05:01 PM

but these cost you no money or points. you cant play in the party poker freeroll without a certain amount of points can u?

BrianSwa 06-28-05 05:03 PM

yep
 

yes you can play their real money freeroll 2 times a day as long as you have deposited there before. Plus like BB said you are never gonna withdraw it until you deposit and jump thorough hoops for them so whats the point.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 05:05 PM

where do u see the real money freerolls or are they over for today? cuz i dont see them in the tournement section under special or regular, all i see is teh players club ones.

kkirk1329 06-28-05 05:06 PM

the point is you can play poker for some real money instead of play money or not playing at all.
