As mob points can be converted into cash idk if they can even do it without a license + people will start to make fake accounts or give points to their friends to reach 5k points within days i suppose.

i know you werent jeffa (i suspect someone with authourity ) P.S. i see it running on some other much smaller site and it works just fine + i doubt they payed 30k+ for license.
I am not sure if its legal or not without license is merely an assumption since its not real money or BRM getting any $ out of it imo it counts as "non profit gaming".

BRM,has over 615 thousand members that's more then some poker sites out there,but,I suppose that's not enough incentive,plus the cost would be a great deal here,for them. and I suppose they already spend too much time just with brm site it s self,and maybe are not interesting in doing some thing like,it has been talked about a lot.

An old idea here. Not something that we could see happening for many reasons. One of these is, that BRM may have the number of members mentioned, But the majority of these members are here for no deposit bonuses. And no site can survive like that. Even if it has millions such members.
We couldn't beg for a chat properly, so staking your mo'points just for the sake of it seems unreasonable. Be active on the site and when you do you'll stop dreaming about winning off the other mobbits hard earned points.
The number one purpose of bankrollmob is to refer players to poker sites and get $ and NDB deals for it... If we could just play poker here then other poker sites would see BRM as competition instead of a marketting ally. So right now it seems like a win-win-win relationship between poker sites-brm-players, let's keep it that way

In my opinion that would be a nice thing to to have. Perhaps Bankroll Mob could also run some freerolls there. Doing so would ensure, that only real Bankroll Mob members can take part in these games.

Yeah, but gamble on it with others looks like a better plan? I just don't get it.
Id go and rather risk my points playing vs mobster than to pile them up daily, more fun involved and im a gambler, so yes .

Playing for mob points a competition? Will you be buying mob points? And depositing them? Cmon
Is something for mobster like calendar or draw or gold chest.
There cant be more than 1000 active forum users from that number. And saying 1000 is very generous. Think about it do you see 5000-50000 posts a day?
P.S. Talking about win win, before entering client u have to click 5 adds they set up.

BRM would have to pay out money much more frequently with something like this, that's where the problem is. The mob draw is only once a week and it only basicly "shuffles around" the mob points that people buy into it with. However, with a poker client that runs around the clock there will be a lot more people reaching 5000 points, let it be chip dumping, incredibly good run, people having huge edge and grinding just on their points, etc. etc.. Definitely not something in BRMs interest (although it would be cool for us members).

could be just occasional turneys with 500-1000 points buy in to prevent that chip dumping.
P.S. with max monthly withdrawal just 5000-50$ points. the more players in such turney the better with such rules. No additional points added, what we bring is there.
Making them active on the forum, or shooting for the safe etc. already increase their points base (its like mining a less expensive bitcoin) so the draws wouldnt necessary the ones which determined how many times they have to pay out on a weekly basis - and with this they can surely apply a cap on the cashouts of da poker winnings based points too.
But it wont going to happen cuz even the chat was too much of a hassle, so we wont card away our points anytime soon.

was just thinking its lots of work for just occasional (weekly) turneys and no cash tables getting client setting stuff up dealing with people, so plan B:
Could have such turneys in riggedstars for play money (password protected) lets say weekly, with 500-1000 mob points buy in, one of the admins would have some extra work and would be paid 10% of the prizepool
