[Bugsy]

Don't play tournaments at PokerStars bugsy?I thought poker was popular at your house?Don't want to buy into tournaments (including Australian League of Champions) for a discount?Keep paying full price then...

[Bugsy]

OK It took 3 hours or more but i successfully bought $W 100 for $90 using the exchange.

im sure you can get better rates in the MTT forum's on twoplustwo.comDan

[Bugsy]

rare apology from me for bagging the exchange. I though poker news was only buying $W not selling them. I should have scrolled down further.I think $W can be used to enter WCOOP events at stars or even buy a WSOP seat through stars, anyone planning to play either of these events could start trying to buy their entries in $W now through the exchange at 90% entry costs

[danielg]

$W are for special events like WCOOP WSOP and PCA, like bugsy said buy them now, coz once the WCOOP structure is realeased they will go in a flash.Dan

Gaz, why no $T for sale anymore

[gaz]

Hi Bugsy,If it won't let you buy T$ at the moment it is because there aren't any available. As soon as supplies reach over 1000 T$ again, then it will automatically allow buy orders.

So I need T$ to buy into ALOC tourneys?Basically, I can play any tourney at Stars for 90% entry fee? Or am I missing something? If not, that's awesome!yoyo
