  am i right in thinking, that credits and prize money , are just virtual, and can never be actually withdrawn.

  Not exactly. You can't have the cash though.

        No actual monitaries will exchange hands from WGT to you.  However, there are actual "prizes" available for you to win associated with playing on WGT; i.e. weekend of golf at "this golf course" or "virtual round with a LPGA pro".  Either way, no cash in your jeans.

  Correct, you can't "cash out", but as yokosaki says there are prizes that can be won in certain tournaments. 

  Additionally, WGT set up the "Elite Collection" in the pro shop.  These are real world items you can purchase with your credits, though they ain't cheap.  You can get a $500 American Express Gift Card for 300,000 credits, which equates to $3,000 in real money.  Good Luck...

  Last two games I played, I won. Bet was 111 credits each time. Told me I won 100 credits. I received 89 credits into my account. I have only noticed this discrepancy and don't know how long it's been happening. ??????   Cant figure out how to post in here. So just answered this one,....eileenatqs

  aye they bump you. think they charge for hosting the game. i played ma brother twice, he won 1, i won 1, we ended up losing 20 credits each. but since they make the game and have overheads i dont mind. but as long as wgt dont take the piss.
