This system makes playing its games online legal in the US and Canada. Players are able to cash out for real money in certain games on the site.<\/p>\n<p>Through this model, players use virtual chips (Gold Coins), which they accumulate but cannot redeem for real money. However, when purchasing more Gold Coins, players receive in-game currecny called \u201cSweeps Cash.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This virtual currency can be used for Sweeps Cash tournaments and ring games, and can also be won in freerolls. As a player wins more Sweeps Cash, it can be cashed out for real money.<\/p>\n<h2>Stepping up for a Global Poker satellite<\/h2>\n<p>Ready to get in the game for your shot at the tables in Los Angeles?
