In a lot of poker forums I see thread after thread with questions of buying/selling playchips filled with people posting, "wow, you can buy playmoney chips??!", "why would people do this!?! omg", "this is not real they are all scams", ect.
I thought I'd make a thread posting some of the common reasons playmoney chips are bought/sold.
- Under aged players wanting to make money from poker.
- Deposit issues or location issues that can be bypassed by buying and selling playmoney.
- Create unlimited accounts.
- No need for any type of verification.
- Instantly cash out without any poker site and/or bank problems -- most playmoney sites will sell and buy playmoney chips instantly paying you cash with methods such as paypal or Google Checkout.
- Grind out money easier -- a lot of playmoney players are terrible and easy to profit from, but there are also many sharks as like anything, you need to work to make money.
- Playmoney poker bots are free to use and can grind out a decent profit VERY easily from the low stakes. (this also falls under being able to create unlimited accounts, if you did this with real money accounts you would have HUGE issues trying to collect the money from all of them, you couldn't just send all the money you made from say, 9 accounts, to one main account.)
I'm sure there may be some other reasons as to why people buy and sell playmoney, but I hope this clears up some questioning about the subject.

The most common and popular playmoney bought/sold is from PokerStars. Buy/sell rates use to be higher, but currently I see them being sold on sites for around $10-$15 per mil, and bought for around $2-$8 per mil. You can check and compare these places yourself by googling the phrase "buy sell poker playmoney".
