Cutting through the BS, what benefit are Pokerstars FPP to me???

Hi all.

I play mainly at Stars, Full Tilt and Party.

Stars is my main site and I collect FPP.

I work weekends - evenings mainly.

I`m trying to get my head around if it is worth concerning myself with FPP.

OR...am I missing something?

What are the main benefits of collecting these points on Pokerstars?

You can buy stuff in their store, such at tournament tickets, clothing (hats/shirts), books, and other misc. poker items.

The rewards for the FPP's are top heavy though, so the high stakes/high volume players get more benefit from them.

If you're a high volume player the FPP's are significant. If you are a low volume and/or low stakes player, then they are far less significant and you shouldn't worry too much about them.

When Stars went down for us Americans I was able to cash out $50 from my FPP's. I was only a bronze star though. Had I been a silver star I'd have gotten $60 I think.

Use them to play sattelites and get T$.

I dont every have to many points, thats because I spend them on Satellites and 10/20 FFP freerolls.
