I talked to two others about a week or two ago and they were buying, at just over $4 per million, so your mileage may vary.

Can you pm me more details plz

Did pretty well today, got just under $3 million this morning.

At 3k/6k I made a couple of stupid calls that I lost (one was absurdly stupid against a guy that is spewy postflop and calls waaay too much but doesn't ever 3-bet or 4-bet without AA/KK preflop, and I called a 4-bet all-in with QQ nearly 200 BB deep preflop against him), and got lucky one major time against someone I have major history with. I didn't do as well as I could have, but I didn't do that bad either and still walked off with a bit more than 4 buy-ins.

At 1k/2k I couldn't get anything going at all, and ran ridiculously bad, but still walked away with just over 1 buy-in more than I showed up with.

Total Bankroll: ~$25,500,000

People who buy play-money.. What is wrong with them..? Seriously.. What is their plan with it?

Don't you see that any site selling play money has a very strong incentive to make it appear that they are buying? Some guy saying they are buying doesn't just make it true 100% of the time.

Sure, I get that, that they would want it to publicly appear that they are always trading. However, when you open up a chat window with support and start discussing the actual sale, they might be inclined to tell you then that they aren't actually buying at that moment instead of quoting you a price like $4 per million and asking your username so that they could get on some tables to complete a transaction, the latter of which is what happened at the second site I talked to. It still might not have been true, but it seems more plausible that they actually were buying.

I have mentioned this before, but there are numerous reasons to want to buy. For one, reloading 1,000 chips a pop every time you lose would kinda suck. Additionally, it isn't actually entirely bingo-like at the high-stakes tables, like 1k/2k and above. For instance, all the 1k/2k full-ring tables running right now have view-flops in the mid 30% range. At 100/200, by contrast, the average is more like 50%. Sometimes people who think they are actually decent feel like bypassing the bingo-stages of the site and going straight to the reasonable levels. $40 or so buys one an awful lot of playing time at 1k/2k and you get to feel a bit like you are playing with decent opponents. Finally, if someone likes poker and lives in the US, or they just don't want to overspend for their poker habit and get the same amount of enjoyment out of playing no matter whether they use play chips or real ones, play money makes perfect sense and spending a little upfront for your habit isn't all that crazy.

Having to reload every time you bust does suck, and I'm currently between jobs and broke, so with actual BR building a play money roll and trying to sell is the only I can do without going crazy, screw freerolls

Let's say someone buys your play chips for $3, $4, or $5 per million on Full Tilt. If that is so, then the 10k/20k games run as a $0.03/$0.06, $0.04/$0.08, or $0.05/$0.10 at play money. But it is for no rake and way less good players.

I don't know if they are much worse honestly. Those tables can be downright nitty sometimes. The other day I was taking a gander at them and they were all ruining in the mid-20% range for viewflop.

Played more 3k/6k today. The games feel beyond easy at this point. It is pretty easy to have $2+ million session and better.

Total Bankroll: $27.5 million

Its seems everyone wants to sell, but nobody is buying.
I guess play chips are only worth 1 thing... playing with.

Do you have play chips and are you trying to sell them? How many sites have you tried if you don't mind my asking?

Down about $4 million today at 3k/6k. Some bad decisions but mostly a combination of ridiculous coolers (think multiple set-over-set situations and the like), and a bunch of suckouts. I think if this was real money I would have killed myself. Luckily it is only funny money.

You should try gay4pay

about to ship a 250 play chip PLO tourny woo hoo lol

Still not fully recovered from the downswing at 3k/6k, but just about there, back up to about $26 million. I haven't played almost any 6-max since then either. I am actually toying with the idea of jumping right into the 10k/20k games and shortstacking once I get to just over $30 million. I won't be ratholing though (there aren't really enough tables to do that), so after I stack up I will stick around and play some. Hopefully people will adjust poorly to that.

Now that school is out I should be able to play a bit more too, so hopefully the updates will be a bit more frequent.

How about them updates? )))))))))

Ship some chips my way😄😄😄😄😄

Any of you tools actually successfully sold play money for real money lately?
