POKER POINTS - IS THERE ANY POINT????????

edited June 2009 in Poker Chat
I have a whole stash of poker points and nothing to do with them

I know i'm not the only one

Why can't these be converted into cash eg 1p per point or why not have some meaningful freerolls to use them on - £20 freerolls are a waste of time

When I first started there was a £100 freeroll every day and a £1000 freeroll on a Wednesday......

(Please don't tell me about cash for points - I have a job so do not have time to build up THAT many but I do have enough.....lol)

    redemption of 1p per point sounds like a good idea too

    I think the idea of the points system, is to reward regurlar players rather than reward people who play a tourny twice a week.

    Even the £250 freerolls are hardly worth bothering with as they have a value of about 20p per player.

    Excellent valid points - a quality freeroll for a fair chunk of poker points would be a good idea.

    There used to be satellites for the Primo that you could enter with points, but not the latest Primo I notice.

    Pity - I'd like some suggestions on what to do with the points I've got. Nothing that would make my eyes water please!

    these poker pints are a joke.sky say there reward people yeah right.ive over 300o points and theres nothing to use them on.i think people should complain more about this as its like giving people a loyalty without a loyalty.why give them if you dont put the tournys on for us to use them.come on sky i play on here most days.if your going to give out poker points put the tournys on for us to use them.thank you

    There is a point in the poker points. I can think of 2000 reasons why I like the poker points. Just annoying that nothing above this to challenge me to get more.

    I actaully brought this up to the backroom people at dusk till dawn.

    They have plans to bring stuff in like that in the future but because alot of people
    have an absolute tonne of these its hard to price things up like 1000 points for a t-shirt.
    The current bonus programme should get rid of everyones monthly points anyway ?

    Curiously how many do you guys have stored up ? i think i have 170k just to try prove a
    point on pricing things up. Also they would get swamped with orders and be backed up for
    a long time on such things as t-shirts .. cards...etc
