500,000 does not equal $20.00????

I see those people that buy playmoney online. Personally, if I didn't win it, it would be cheating.

Also, I thought Ebay put a stop to that kind of auctions a few years ago.

Thanks for pointing out this gem...

how can these guys win that much play money and NOT be able to just go win $20 in the same amount of time? I'm cornfuzed. They must use a push/fold system on the tournaments and if they bust, just reload the 1k play money and do it again.

I have played around with the play money games on pokerstars. You can pretty much log on to a 9man tourney and then sit out. You will nealry always end up in the money. I guess that might work if you repeated it lots of times.

Just a thought.

when i was learning how to play, i played pp play money games.

i have 12 million in play money there. i stopped playing play money shortly after playing for cash...and i'm a lot better since then.

if you play T/A, it's not too hard to make a lot of play money. but i did get smacked around quite a bit when i first started playing NL tables for $.

btw, i hear that fillmath made a lot of virtual money last year...
