Your "real" money IS credits man. When I started playing this game 2 months ago, I saw the career earnings of the top ten players, and I thought to myself, kick ass, I am gonna practice and make a couple hundred a month off this game. After a few weeks of playing a buttload, I started to win some credits. Then my little fantasy was shattered, this isn't money you are winning, it's purely WGT credits, which cannot be redeemed for cash, but you can pay cash for them! Sure it is my fault for not reading the rules etc, but the money thing is misleading to newbies, bigtime. In my opinion, they should allow withdrawals, if you can deposit 50 dollars for 5000 credits, why in hell can't 5000 credits be turned back into 50 dollars? All I know is WGT is making money hand over fist, charging ridiculous prices for virtual equip and balls, then taking said balls when it rolls 3 feet off the fairway into the "weeds", which must be from hell also, if I can't even walk into them for my ball. Add to this all the quitters, even Tour Masters and Masters quit after a *** shot, makes me sick. I won't be putting anymore "real" money into this game.
