You should be aware that Cake Network is giving away 60K this month starting the 4th which is good for 5K.
Gold Cards are needed but most are cheap and bargain priced. See exchange to buy 2 clubs at a nickle and be sure to buy at least 10. Add on is manatory as well as rebuys from the beginning. Play lose and enjoy yourself.
I have 15K Gold Cards and most of the big ones needed here and will be posting my advice if wanted.
