Default OT PS FPPs

I posted this in Rakeback but have not had any responses. I figure I'd put it here since I am an STT guy.


Given recent events, what would you guys do with 480,000 FPPs on Poker Stars right now? I was saving them for an EPT event in January, but now I'm not sure if I should wait for that. Any recommendations? Should I just try and get as much merchandise now?

I'd get a bunch of poker sets and sell them on ebay for real cheap. You know the chip sets that go for like 10K FPPs.

Is it too risky to save them for the EPT-Copenhagen in January?

btw, that amazon stuff is pretty damn funny.

I'd load up on $500 Amazon gift cards. You can buy everything on Amazon, and you're getting a rate slightly better than the average product in the FPP store. (On average FPPs = $0.016, but with the gift cards you get a slightly better rate). Way more liquidity than buying iPods.

Also, you could use the concierge service and get whatever you want, eh?

Yeah, I guess you're right. I was just pointing out alternatives.
