Posted by RIPStuNov22: The 2700 player freerolls are a waste of time.
What you want to do is get onto the play chip side of the house and get yourself a few million chips. This can be easily accomplished in less than a week if your treat them like real money and play accordingly.
Then you go and play the DAILY 500K Play Chip $40 Freeroll found in the play chip tournament lobby at 20:40 (8:40pm EST).
Top 18 paid, First gets $5, Second gets $3, everyone else gets $2.
There's rarely more than 50 people playing.
Cash 5 times you have $10-25 to start playing with.
To give yourself a big boost to your starting play chip balance, follow these steps:
Play chip starting balance = 1000
First, register for 4 250 playchip SNGs.
Open cashier and reload playchips.
Unregister from all SNGs.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for a 2000 playchip SNG.
Reload playchips.
Unregister from SNG.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for a 2000 and 4 250 playchip SNGs.
Reload playchips.
Unregister from SNG.
Wait 5 minutes.
Register for 2 2000 playchip SNGs.
Blah blah blah......
When you get bored of doing that, you'll have a nice starting playchip bankroll to work with, so go build it.
It's a lot easier when you can start out with 10K-plus.
Man this method works, no doubt about it, but is it worth the time? i gess it's better to join brm and get ur first 50 dollars free and then clear the bonus getting other 50 bucks

if you play omaha hi in fulltilt then the road to 500.000chips isnt far.. lots of donkeys even in the 100/200 levels! play ring games and you can get 500k chips in notime. keep moving up in levels as the stack increases!

Posted by Poeinkie: Hey GeneYuss, where and how can you sell those playchips from pokerstars ??
Thanks !
Search google for "sell pokerstars chips", I don't think I can post the site here. And when you sell them, send a small increment first so you know its not a scam. And make sure their site looks professional and not a free domain name.

Do you also happen to know what's in it for them ? why are they give away free money ?
They buy them for ~$10 per million and sell them for ~$17 per million. I was thinking of making my own buy/sell website because there is some money to be made but I never got around to it. I'm trying to sell 5mill party poker chips too, I think I can only get a few dollars though.

If you search gogle you'll also find a shop of full tilt play money. The rate of change is slightly lower than pokerstars, but selling useless stuff to get money is always good u know?
