  Hello, I was just wondering why I can't get into any Ready-Go Tournaments.  It says I can't enter because of my country or state of residence.  Are you not allowed to play in RGs from the US?  Or is it because I live in Connecticut?

  Thanks

  Connecticut doesn't allowed skill based gaming.

  Don't think that's it for earning credits. Tibbets was in a US state that didn't allow skill based gaming, and he's 2nd in the all-time earnings list.

  that was different. he never played mpc or rg's which falls under betting I think. his was monthly wins for tournaments

  He's  "only a level 30 Legend" because he hasnt played a round in nearly 2 years. When WGT introduced levels and tiers last September, all masters(the highest tier at the time) were given 30 levels to start, his avg was low enough for him to get bumped into the legend tier.

  I also live is a state that keeps me from the RG tournys. it also takes away of truly being able to participate or form a countryclub ! WGT needs to offer a form of a RG for these states ! it would offer a little more variety to those who are missing out on alot of play !
