Pokerstars is clear on their policy about soliciting to sell play chips as far as their rules state. However, in some recent comunication with them via email for something mildly related to selling on their site they told me that they have no firm rule that prohibits someone from selling play chips on their site. Now I for one would never spend cash to buy play chips, but there are many people who do. I have a couple of guys I play cards with that live near me that have made hundreds of dollars selling their play chips which made me even think about this. I'm not trying to take up space with this thing nor am I trying to get an arguement started. I was just curious if anyone knew someone or a site that would buy them. Since asking about this and searching this out on yahoo, I have come to find literally 20 or 30 sites that do this. I know it's crazy, but hell it's their money.

Okay so instead of playing 5-10 play money, people decide to play 2MIL-4MIL or whatever the hell the highest limit is. Maybe I'm way off here but can't you reload your play money chips, uhh for free. I just honestly can't understand why in the flying fuck any one would be so retarded as to purchase fake poker chips. I would feel slightly bad selling them to these obviously mentally ill people.

well when you refill, you get only 1,000 in play chips, people that buy it from you go to the high stakes tables and play 40K or fold, i played it a couple of times and its really fun. but i prefer builing my fake chips in a couple of days to couple hundred grand, rather than spending real money and playing right at that moment.

PS: again those people are loaded, so they dont care about spending a couple of bucks for fake money.

He actually said that? OMG! Well any way I have already increased my bank some today so I'm liking that. With some practice I may be able to do some good in Vegas when I'm there in April. That or lose my ass and get extremely drunk.
