$20 to win $100,000?
So I recently stumbled across (removed). What is really clever about this approach is that it brings you the classic poker-style gameplay and lure of cash prize tournaments, since there is no actual money wagering you have to pay $20/month to be a member of the club, but you can't lose any money in it.
You have the opportunity to win good-sized prizes ($100,000 first prize) in the weekly or monthly tournaments, so it probably keeps you from really doing dumb wagering like you would if no money was at stake. At $20 a month, it's a decent amount of money but you can't go broke.
anyone give this a shot yet?

So anyone who plays small stakes poker online, you might want to consider BetZip. The beauty of this is you can play as much as you want a month, and it is only gonna cost your bankroll $20.00/month!
Once again, im not advertising
PM me for the link, sloth thinks I was advertising
Frankly if you really want to go low/no rake play at WPEX where you get back every cent of rake contributed.
Problem is they only have a few hundred players, minimal game selection and most of those players are tight aggressive multi tablers.
I have never heard of the network you are talking about but I imagine it is even smaller.
But hey, go for it and post your results in a couple months. Note I suggest this pretty much assuming that will not happen
I don't think the OP meant to spam but the idea is not quite as revolutionary as he may believe.

"Apparently, pros are going to start taking advantage of sites like this, because you can win large amounts of money!"
"Money available to be won = money available to be lost MINUS rake"
No get rich quick scheme..... NO substitute for good ol plain hard work!
To answer the question, "someone must lose in order to win" the prizes are paid out from monthly fees. The $20 membership a month. I only mentioned this site, because alot of forum members are low stakes players who like to risk the minimum but gain alot. Sorry if you felt this thread was spam my intentions were good. People learning how to play the game too could consider this site aswell, because since there is a prize awarded after every tourney. People will not fool around with the all in button like the .NET sites.
Low limit players who want to avoid risk should bonus whore among various sites, not pay $20 a month to play at a site that likely has no traffic or game selection.
