Enterprising pinoy: facebook poker chips for sale
3 July 2008
In one of the Facebook (a social networking site much like Friendster) applications called Texas Hold'Em Poker, I once again saw the hand of our enterprising Pinoy brothers/sisters.
Each table may seat 9 participants, and onlookers who "Watch" over the table may freely comment in the player chat section below. Every now and then, I never fail to notice a message that randomly pops out, visible for all to see.
The message goes, [Stephanie Martin]: to all my fellow pinoys, we are selling poker points for only Php 1K for 1M, 1.5K for 2M etc. just email poker_king1225@yahoo.com for more details.
Of course, it's a "decent" means of income, and it's not a scam, but what kind of occupation or productivity would the seller of "virtual chips" be foregoing for the time spent accumulating these millions of chips? Getting 1M virtual chips is not an easy task, and a week spent getting this may even be conservative. Any sort of luck that helps one achieve it in less than a week, and maintains the track record weekly might be next to impossible if there is no illegal method used.
It’s seriously difficult to gain enough chips to start playing against serious players so I give a lot of credit to the people that can do it. But buying chips to get past the hoards of new players that go all-in way to often is a fair alternative.
thank you very much for the advertising boost. this is definitely not a scam. we even give our cellphone and landline numbers so prospective buyers may check us out. its no easy task accumulating 1 million poker points from the daily 500 point allowance given by fb texas holdem. we are just giving our fellow filipino poker players the chance to upgrade their poker status from rookies to poker millionaires without going through the hassles of playing very long hours just to accummulate a few number of chips. this is a legitimate business undertaking, if one should call it as such, and we aim to please and deliver what was paid for. our rates are also very competitive with other entities doing the same business of selling chips. we are just giving alternatives to fellow filipinos who want to play in higher stakes tables without going through the motions of consuming so much playing time just to acquire poker points. enough said, we plead with you to try us out and enjoy the thrill of playing in high stakes poker. again, we appreciate this timely thread.
