Yep, me too. Nice investment, when I started making 12 hours non stop the deal, I was with 44 SC and when the jackpot was hitted, I had 39 SC. It was a good investment for 5 SC, but I had some luck hitting a set and receiving 25 SC once and two pairs twice [7 SC each].

As many other guys already said, changing for cash is the best way for me too! Although small part of it i use also for tickets, like those weekly bronze freeroll at saturday.

Play TheDeal approximately every 12 hours. Sometimes I buy a ticket for 0.5 or 1 $ in Spin & Go.

I play spin and go with them they are really nice , or you can play tournaments with how much you have , TheDeal is really hard for someone to hit the jackpot it doesn't happen often though so it's your choice!

The most valueable way to use starscoins is defiantly for starscoin satellites, assuming you have some ability to play short stacked. The reason is that starscoin tournies have no rake in them at all so you get really good value by using them like that.

But whatever... If you want use it for cash and then play cash games then that's fine... It doesn't make a huge difference.

Interesting.. I also had no idea what to do with them and threw them at the deal and found it to be rigged to lose. Will play once every 12 hours to test this strategy.

I'd also just like to point out that the deal is actually a completely rake free game and it's NOT rigged bt due to the nature of the payouts you are vey unlikely to actually win but if you do win you'll win huge. Nothing too wrong with playing te deal though :p

converting into cash or tickets coins are worth 0.01 each if I'm not wrong.

I used some for the Deal which rewarded me $3.53
My estimated guess is I used about 70 coins (I didn't really keep track), which means a value of 0.05 each coin.

You don't have to be a genius to see that's way more value + having a slight chance to win some money.

Though.....using some coins for satellites could give a boost too ofcourse.

Converting into cash is a waste of money, as long as the Deal rewards way more.

$3.00 SPnG tickets, they can add cash to your BR quick if played well.

If that's no good you could always order one of these.

I usually play MTT-sattelites or SitNgo sattelites, have tried The Deal with only starcoins as price. Think i will try the 12hrs strategy for a while now. But im wondering... what is the qualification rules for pay-out when somebody hits the jackpot?

Starcoins? It's been said, but there are only two good uses for them if you don't play long and hard on PS.
You can cash them in for $ when you get $10 worth, or you can play The Deal. That's really all. You can play small tournaments for starcoin buy in, but that's not economical in my view.

Got some really good advice out of here, thank you all! Now I need to get more Coins.

Well I think in the lower sphere it is more about getting cheap practice or getting the to take a shot at something you wouldn't play normally.

Playing one deal hand every 12 hours when the pot gets above 100,000 is my strategy. You can easily pocket a few bucks if you have enough stars coins to last a few days. You can also buy S&G and Spin and go tickets.
