I have about 1000 FPPs on my account which is not much but there are a lot of things that you can do with it and i want to spend them the best way possible. Should i trade it for cash, play some tournaments, buy something from the VIP store or save it for now and do something else later when i acumulate some more?
Thanks

Save them :) The rewards are much better the more you have! why spend 1000FPP on a hat or a poker set when you can eventually save up for live tournament tickets etc

go trade them for 10$. Its either that OR, go play the 235fpp 6max hypers for 2 seats in the Sunday storm and if you win, you can then unregister and keep the 11$ tournament dollars.

If you do the second,you have 4 chances of winning 1st or 2nd place in the hypers,meaning that if you run like god and win them all,you can make up to 44$ tournament dollars.

Problem is there is risk involved,meaning that you might lose them all.

Its up to you.

I spent 2300 fpp's on a hoody :) But generally, they recommend anyone below Supernova status should spend their fpp's on tournament tickets.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think i am going to trade it for 10$ for now, also 11$ sunday storm or 16.5$ tournaments are really something i would like to take shot at soon but becouse i am on a downswing lately i like cash to give myself a BR boost.

I spend my FPPs in tournaments specially SATs: you don't spend many and you can win some nice enter in good tournaments! But first I collect as many as I can!

I have bought once a t-shirt, but it was stupid idea. It was bad quality and if one calculates how much rake they get from those points, it's not worth it to buy anything from that store. It's 'overpriced'. Probably just redeem, tickets ....
It would make more sense, if you can view catalogue of electronic shop and choose new items from it and pay with points calculated by some general formula. This would be great !

I have about the same points and i have been playing the super turbo sats to the Sunday games like the early game Sunday Sparkler it's called, you play 10 handed with 500 starting chips and top 2 win a spot in it:) it's oly a $1 buy-in but i have managed to win about 10-15 of these out of 20ish games at most so i have done ok, i just unregister from the game each time and bank the T$1 from each game into my account and let the T$'s add up, at only 13 FPP you can play alot of these and because they're very quick they fill up all the time pretty fast or at least they do when i seem to play them on the Saturday nights/Sun mornings before the games start obviously:rolleyes: and because i'm a nighthawk at the weekend i am sleeping when these games starts at 9am UK time,:D there is also the Sunday Storm games also but they're alot dearer, think 125 or 250 FPP's a sat for them games.:)

I've done exactly this to rebuild a BR before. It's the best way to go imo.
