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?
Think big, or suck.

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.


Girlfriend:
Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!

Girlfriend:
Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend:
Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

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.
