I am a platinum member, and playing 1/2 NL earns me around 3,000 FPP's a day.
I noticed that they have recently offered a VIP reward bouns of $650 for 50,000 FPP's for the platinum member.
Is this probably the best way to go to to get the max money for your points? Is there a better way?

The new VIP reward bonuses are NOT worth it. By purchasing goods suchs as gift certificates and electronics and such, you are maximizing your FPP. I live in Canada and I'm saving for the $1000 best buy gift cards @ 56k fpp. if i were to cash the fpp in for the reward bonuses, i'd only get like $750. It's all about the big screen TVs at best buy for me. Besides, if you want to get real cash from your fpp, just buy a TV with a gift card then sell it on e-bay.

I like getting stuff with my FPPs and kind of a reward for playing since I don't usually cash out. I know a lot of people who use them for Satellites which I really don't understand.
I got the 26" HDTV and I love it.

I save up for tourney tix or use them for satellites to get into tourneys. I have made a lot of money doing this.
