Why you play at play money ? Couldn't get no deposit bonus ? Your country looks isn't banned country. Al least you can play freeroll. And there are a lot of freeroll out there, lol.

Hi guys!
Vasselmob, during how many time you play to win 1 million chips?! One more question, are you fine? I remember when i played this kind of playchips in PS (years ago) and i go crazy. Playing long time hurts our poker.

You are giving a low value to this victory just because it was made in playmoney, but i am sure there was someone between those who entered this tourney who had the objective of winning and who were playing with a defined strategy. It can mean few, but if you are able to do it there, it may mean you can also give yourself a try to do it in the real Money way. Taking advantage of a no deposit bónus, or even a deposit bónus, the risk will be few and the chance can turn into awesome increase of your budget! I would now go for real if i were you.

You should definately make a min deposit and try out the real money games that they have the offeer and i know they offer a lot of heads up tournaments
Play money games aren't good for cash games where you learn to limp a lot and not raise preflop, but SNG or MTT are pretty useful.

A win is a win and you now have loads of play money to do with whatever you like....if you can actually do anything with it that is....Im sure you can on Ps...perhaps there is as Supernoob says, a nose bleed table where you and the other millionaires can play each other.

It's still a challenge that has meaning. Great job! I couldn't win that many paly chips when I played. I know FT would convert 1 million play chips into $5 to start real money games. Does Pokerstars do anything like this?

Pokerstars don't do it but is easy find some webs where you can change playmoeny for real money. Another thing is... Why want someone buy chips? What is the great secret in that kind of bussiness? Maybe the chips have special powers?
