MBNA WSOP Credit card

[renodoc]

Saw a full page ad in Card Player. Seems like a cool idea, instead of airline miles, earn your WSOP buy-in. I called them and they had no clue how the progam works, except that they thought that for every $10,000 you spent, you got 80 points (i.e. dollars towards your buy-in) So I'd have to spend $1.25M on my card in a year to free-roll into the main event???

Anyone else look into this?

MBNA sucks. You'd never be able to spend more than $10,000 because MBNA would shut your card down before you got to that point. They shut mine down and I told them to go F themselves.

crappy deal. It is trivial to get 1% cash back on everything and 5% on gas and groceries with a credit card.
