first post, so hi everyone :)

just like to ask those in the know, can i trade my play money? got a few million in the bank (only time im gonna say that in my life) and have seen a couple of websites that will trade the chips for between $10 and $20 a million.

has anyone actually tried this or is it a scam? (why anyone would want to scam you out of play chips i dont know, but probably for the same reason they would want to but play chips in the first place).

can it go straight into my PS account like a player to player transfer?

if anyone has done this sucessfully which sites did you use?

thanks

ps, if u need a laugh go to the jokes in the players lounge and find the link to the bubble gum man, just do it its the funniest story ive ever read.

There are people that buy play money, it would just be two different player to player transfers. You would probably send them they play money and they will send you the real money after.

I've never done it myself but I'd always be afraid of getting scammed.

What would be the reasoning? UB has points games and tourneys for real $. I could undertsand buying those, they can be used to get buy-ins for $, but play money? All I have to do is email and they give me more, if they haven't already auto replaced. Kinda curious about this.....:confused:
