I'm guessing this would go here since it's about "where you play". I was thinking the other day about a site called Limbo.com (click the unique tab, that was there 1st game), or heck even The Price is Right and thought, why can't a poker site do this as well. If you visit the site/show, they make money from advertisers, you try to bid on their product for as low as you can and if your bid is the lowest unique number, you win that prize. Since, I don't have the know how to write a program, I figured I'd throw it out here and see if another CC'er can become rich and famous from it. My thought is, what if you had a site that was strictly free rolls? You could probably have several smaller tournies during the week giving away gift cards, dig. cam's, TV's... things like that and then have a larger tourney on the weekend during "prime time" for the flat panel tv's<. The smaller daily tournies could offer points which could be used (as you see on limbo) to buy cheapy stuff (downloads, shirts...).
With a system like this, I would think it should be legal everywhere since there's no entry fee and everyone has an equal opportunity to win and lose without (them) spending a dime. As for site quality, heck start off with a cheap model program since it's all freerolls. You see how quick the freerolls fill up on most sites when the top prize is $100, can you imagine the advertising real estate for a $500 top prize and some $5 - $20 gift cards to the next 10 spots or what not.
If someone rolls with this, just remember me .
HA! 'rolls'... free rolls... ah nevermind
