i was wondering how to create a continuous home game which would have some sort of a prizepool & wouldn't require any donations from our members. i think it is possible to create a blogger site and populate it with adsense adds, affiliate banners, links etc.- find as many decent offer as possible which would be useful for our members and would generate money for the site- then this money would be used to fund the weekly freeroll for brm members? what you think- would this work?

Posted by bullettooth1: isn't that pretty much how THIS site works already?
in a way yes, though i thought to target different are than gambling...just to add any content & rreap the rewards from adsense...but i guess this would be a no go since account would be banned pretty quickly, so it seems this is a no go...

Posted by Macubaas: The idea is interesting but in fact what do you propose it's a new poker strategy site...
The only difference would be that the profit of the site will be used to finance the prize pool of a home game, right?
well the content of the site not necessarily should be about poker/strategy...in reality the main idea of the site would be to generate income from adsense ads- that income would go for the prizepool of home games...it can be sport info site, jokes section, maybe some funny poker hand- really the content is not important here- site is just needed to implement adds. but i think adsense account would be banned pretty quickly if we attempt that, so i guess it's a no-goer.

It seems ok but all in a confidence base, which can bring problems in the future. The adsense account and everything else… We would all be visiting it every days, clicking every banner, all with the same interest: to generate the more money possible. But that would seem like some kind of scheme, because, when analyzing, we would be like a single person working for a single objective, to earn the more money possible. Wouldn’t that be illegal? Even if it’s legal, thinking better, that’s what BRM is created for, and they have banners, and we all have to win by clicking on them, because we generate more money to BRM that, after that, promotes ways to distribute it for the members, in a contest basis, which gives bigger sums of money to less rewarded members, but very nice when winning. And then you would have to start promoting that new blog/site here at BRM, and if each one of the most active members would create a blog/site like this and invite all the other mobsters to pass there and click everywhere once a day, we would all be generating a big amount and we could work as a big company, sharing this profits between us…
Google are good payer
