Opening Your Player Account
You first need to open a player account. It's easy!! All you need to do is create your player screen name, password, security ID question, and provide your email address and country. Opening this account does not commit you to anything and your information will never be sold or divulged to another party for any use. As soon as your player account is created you can play at any play chip table.
Getting Chips
All new accounts are immediately credited with 1000 play chips. This will allow you to sit down at any play chip table with stakes 100/200 or less.
If your total chip balance (what you have while sitting at a table and what you have remaining in the account) is less than 500 you can easily replenish your chips. Simply go to 'account services', click on 'get more chips', and another 1000 will be added.
