Do you use all your Mob points every day, or do you save them up for the safe or do you put them all in the draw? I been using like 40% and saving the rest. Maybe I will play them all in a draw one of these days, but for now I think I will save some up.

i spend them pretty much each week or fortnight on the draw/safe
So far I've spent around $100 worth and won $100 - so basically even - i think a little down..
I dont really care for saving them, why bother saving for 6mths for $50 - i really dont mind depositing $50 lol
I'd rather have a bit of fun (games) along the way.. I'd only bother saving if i was an affiliate.. But as far as points from posting goes.. saving them for a cashout is boring IMO.
Posted by shokaku: I rarely use them on the games, as i don't win anything anyway. So i collect them untill i have 5000+ and can cash out.
Same for me, because I don't like to waste my precious hard earned points on bingo games who knows maybe I would have win but honestly I don't want to play with luck here...

I tend to save them, as I do affliate, funny thing is you make more posting. The affliate is pants ATM IMO, at my current rate I need 50 PPL to signe up to get $50, in some cases id need 100 ppl. I belive things are supposed to be changing, hope they do it soon.

+1 affiliate program is many times not worth it, especially for some countries you dont even get any points for referring. i too hope things change

I guess you should stick to whatever you decide. I bought Mob Draws sometimes but that`s not calculated and "dumping" I think. I`m always thinking:"why did I do that?"...lol
I just save them up now and cash out to a Poker site if I get enough.

FWIW also, in terms of poker theory.. And I've mentioned this in past, similar threads.
It is +EV to spend points on the safe when it is >$50 simply because it's 1000:1 to win $50 and each shot is worth 5c. So basically, you getting good odds any time the safe is >$50, in particular if it goes over >$70
In theory, if you spend all your points on mob safe shots every time the safe is say >$70 you'll come out in front in a long enough period of time. Buyin safe shots when safe is <$50 is -EV and @ $50 it is +/- EV

I am a chronic point saver; only once I bought something more than 500 draw tickets (and didn't win of course) the other two tickets I have had are the ones BRM gave me on my two birthdays here
.... sometimes I'm also afraid to use my dayly shot at the mobsafe :

I usually try to save for 5000 points, then use them up and take a shot at one of the big pots BRM has from time to time. This time though, I will save them up.... how much is the safe at?
