FREEROLL POKER POINTS

When every body enters the free roll they pay in poker points . What happens to the poker points?
would it not be better that all those poker points could be split up with the prize money and shared out equally?

    I thought that freerolls are a way to try and exchange them for cash, so giving them back maybe a bit pointless. However i wouldn't mind so i voted yes :)

    Hi all,

    Poker points are rewarded every time by playing in Real Money Games as well as Sit 'n Go's and Multi Table Tournaments. You can use your Poker Points to enter selected Multi Table Tournaments called Freerolls. Instead of paying cash, just look for these tournaments in the Lobby and use your Poker Points to buy your entry.

    You can also exchange your points for cash by participating in the Cash for Points offer, which can be found on Poker Promotions Page on Sky Poker. The Cash for points offer is usually an on-going offer.

     

    Many thanks

    I think this maybe what he could be talking about.

    So, Let's say i've got 180 Monthy Points earned. But i have 450 Overall (From the 500 i started with)

    By using the overall points to enter a freeroll, we could then win Poker Points that get added to our Monthy Points, and then help towards the monthy point scheme.

    all im saying is all those poker points used  2 enter free roll should be up 4 grabs as well as the money!
    e.g 785 poeple enter equalls 19625 poker points surally u could split them up acordingly with the prize money?

    points are given in exchange for a rake, so by giving out poker points in a freeroll would decrease sky's profits in the long term because people would stop playing cash games if they could make money without risking a single penny... no cash games means no freerolls

    Any chance of there being more freerolls?  Other sites have them on the hour not just daily.
