What Are InterPoker's Poker Points Good For?

After I sign in to InterPoker, the Player Info on the top right of the lobby shows I have a certain number of Poker Points (PP). I can't find anywhere in the client or the web site that explains how these are earned or what they can be used for. Anyone here know? Thanks.

You can enter tourneys with them. Either 1000 points which buys you into $1000 or 2000 to buy in a $20000 tournament. I believe times are Fridays 1:00pm $1000 Saturday 6:00 pm $2000 and Sunday 8:00pm $10000. All times are in PST.

Just to clarify 1100 pts for a $1K guranteed (maximum 100 entries), 2200 pts for a $2K guranteed (maxiumum 100 entries).

So 1100 pts = $11.

Just curious.

Where do you find how many points you have?

Thanks

They're usually towards the top right hand corner...just above the bad beat and royal flush bonuses...

I have about 300 pts but they are vitually worthless to me until a few bonus whoring months from now till i can blow 1100 or 2200pts on a tourney.

They've also changed their daily (mon-thurs) $300 freerolls to 300pp tourneys. These are a slightly better prize/pp ratio than the week-end pp tournaments. Plus the 1100 and 2200 pp tournaments can be bought into with cash so you get a lot more players competing for the prize money.

In general though, Poker Points are among the most useless promotions. ever.
