    Default Stars FPP?

    What do you guys do with your FPP? I bought the hat/shirt/sweatshirt, but I was wondering if perhaps there was a better way that I should be spending them? Like in a tournament or something. Or trade it for cash (essentially making it a rakeback).

    I have enough shirts/hats...I'm saving up for a Aston Martin V8 Vantage with my FPP. It'll be any day now.

    i bought a shirt a while ago, but im saving them now. if your playing high enough stakes, then you can cash in FPP's for cash, but i dont know the exact details of it.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    So I guess the consensus so far is to save them up and get the expensive items you want. I guess that's all I needed to hear.

    I'm assuming the tournaments aren't worth it?

    I have ordered three books using my Stars FPPs (Harrington 3, NLHET&P and One of a Kind). What better way to get something for free that is +EV for your game?

    Just started Harrington 3 (after reading HoH1&2 about four times in a month). The whole thing is set out like a quiz to identify your weakpoints in play. It's fun so far.

    A bit long though.

    Waiting in the shadows ...
    I spent 1k on a deck of cards (Del Negro). They're great cards, but the back is just red/blue with a giant PokerStars.com logo, which is kinda lame. Definitely not cost effective.

    If you're worried about return most of the gift cards are decent. I'm waiting for the lowest level bonus now.

    Sometimes they discount stuff they are trying to get rid of, like 2006 clothing for instance. I check the list every so often, and it will show discounted stuff that is marked as limited quantities. You might find something worth getting.
    Sue me if I play too long....

    I got my wife a shirt so she wouldn't feel like me spending time on poker was a big waste.

    I never buy things with my FPPs. I'd rather play in their Sattelites, and hopefully turn those FPPs into cash
