recently lost my bigbet points playing the points sng, but to-day i won 4 (won 2 came 2nd in 2) first and second pay more or less the same 4 points in the difference............ have to say love playing for them plus they are handy played 2 mtts allready using them for the buy ins so they are saving me my cash .... entered a $3 mtt and scraped into the money and made $5 plus payed for a $2 mtt but lost ..... at the moment i have just over 800 of these points so i will be able to buy into a couple of more mtt and not have to use my hard earned cash ..... and hopefully maybe win a couple of more of the points stt and build them up and then use them to buy into tourneys

I have points only in Full Tilt, but actually I don't use them for anything, as they take a toll on my rakeback. I tried selling them once but nobody was interested.

I always use points for some tournaments etc... If u're playing poker that time it is economy (u get more then just turning it into pure cash even for the last paid place in most of the tournaments and it's not really hard to get to 200-300 sometimes and u can go better which refund u also the lost at tournaments sometime).
Try not to use my points, just collect them right now. Unless things go totally south for me, I plan to redeem the points sometime for some Full Tilt Merchandise. I went and used points in the past to enter into sat Sng's and MTTs, but kinda regret doing that now because I would've had enough points to get some pretty good stuff. Live and learn.
