I want to tell you all one thing. The 5000 free vippoints at players only are not want they appear to be. You can play a few tournaments and only earn points, no cash! They say you have to make 3000 points in order to exchange them for cash so that you can play more games such as cashgames. Well i made over 3000 points ( my total is 8400 now) but i still cant exchange them. Now they say i have to make 3000 points using real money !!!!!!! So watch out you can only get something if you deposit first ! 1 point for every 10 cents!! Well try to make 3000 points hahahaha.....( $300 ) The vippoints you get as an equivalent for $ 50 is nothing but a kind of playmoney, you cant win anything with it just more useless vippoints.!!!!!

I read a lot of complaints about this offer here on BRM. My country is eligible for it and I recently got an email from BRM telling me if I was aware about it. I am not sure if it worth a try.
I'm now asking for your help: can someone please copy/paste the whole T & C here?

I just got my check from Players Only. I used the free points and won $600 in an $11 tourney. I was able to cashout with no deposit. All I had to do was upload my photo ID. It took just 3 days.

I am playing that site now, I am still waiting for my 5000 points from BRM. I have started a free bankroll though, with the Fun Step SnG, won the 3rd step and got my $1 real money... wooppeee!!
I have got that up to $8 now playing double up SnG $1, so its something to do until my points arrive.
I just checked, and to buy in to a $2500 guranteed tourny costs $11 OR 1100 points, so I am guessing this is how you can make real money from the BRM points!
@ OP... I think this pic shows how to use your points

don't get me wrong but I really trust bankrollmob cause my experience here is 100% positive. so I would be very grateful if you could copy/paste Terms and Conditions of the room so that I can understand what is wrong with this offer. I guess something has to be wrong or at least hard to understand: as I already said you are not the only one complaining about PO

Hey just tell clarify with all our members participating in the PlayersOnly No Deposit bonus (5000 points).
The points can be used on daily guaranteed tournaments (ex. Daily $33 NL Holdem Freezeout with $6500 guranteed) or points play SNG's (ex. 500 VIP Point SnG) . They are not accepted in other tournaments (ex. $1 Turbo Freezeout).

I received my 5k points via BRM and i have been playing in the garanteed tournments. Honestly i never won anything (iam playing like 4 tournments per week), but i have my doubts if its like your saying. The gartanteed tournments that iam playing are for real money and rebuy tournments, not playmoney. You can buy ticket using real money or the vip points to entyer there, if you lose you can only rebuy with real money, not points or playmoney. i dont know what is happening with you but something is worng in your story.

THIS is complete rubbish. OP is just not that intelligent, trust me.
First game I played, I won $400 REAL money. Check my sharkscope - humanX
You can play ANY $GTD MTT with that 5K points - and win cash prizes.
The SNGs OP is talking about are POINTS SNGS LMAO - you enter with points and win more points.
The 3000 points he is talking about are VIP level points - just like EVERY OTHER SITE ON THE INTERNET points you win in points based games don't earn VIP levels - only points earned from real $$ rake count towards VIP level. This is the same on every other single site.
OP is an idiot.
EDIT: And what is worse - some other idiot has given his post a
for a bunch of lies and slander against a site giving us a free $50.
BTW - there's other threads on here about people winning money on that site.
Also - the site is soft as s**t - to the person playing 4 tourneys a week and hasn't won anything yet... lol
First game I played was a $5 MTT and came first out of 289 and won $405.
Seriously, anyone thinking about this bonus - get in on it while you can - it's legit and the players there are seriously weak.

Posted by magatt966: jessetherude is back
rude but informative.
have you got T&C?
Yeh - there's been a few threads - pushing it - but I've let them slide - but this rubbish was just too much. What a muppet. There's so many threads on Players Only that OP could have read and learned to understand how to use the points correctly. Rather than come on here and slander the poker room that's giving BRM members a free $50 - which FWIW is towards the upper limits of what is normally offered.
Not sure on the release T&C but there was a thread recently someone reported no issues cashing out.
I think you need to earn 3000 points to reach the first VIP level and this may also be the requirement for cashing out. Rake is 10c per point I think. Like most rooms, you prob have to make a deposit before cashing out.. I wouldn't know - I blew my winnings play $1/$2 NLHE completely smashed - this is classic Jess

Jess is, as always, right.
I have got the 5000 points, and entered a couple of 10 + 1 $ buy in tournaments. (I played like an idiot, and didn't win anything, so I haven't cashed out, but that's not the point. The points are not playmoney.)
