I'm bumping this thread because honestly I think it's PURE MADNESS what's happening right now on VirginGaming.com ... I see a big, BIG lawsuit coming up against EA and VirginGaming for promoting something like this...
I tried playing a few games for $5 each and I lost every single time, even though the opponents had a lower (or equal) skill rating as me. The system determines your skill level on a scale from 1 to 10, based on your win/loss percentage. It didn't take me long to realize that the big guys are basically losing games intentionally to drop their skill level and play cash games against noobs.
Most games are $10-$20, but I've seen games at $100 and $200. The limit that VirginGaming has set is $1000 per game. That's right folks, $1,000 for a game that lasts 6 minutes! Fucked up!
