I am a professional online poker player and use moneybookers. I would like to use MB to purchase BTC, but as I have read in this forum, it is a bad idea to send MB to MtGox or any other exchange. Does it make sense to send MB to another MB acct holder with a personal MB acct and have then send me BTC?
With a p2p transaction would I be required to send MB first since I am the Newbie and MB is reversible?
Is this a relative safe way of obtaining BTC with MB?
BTW I'm looking to acquire 10BTC to make some online purchases and willing to pay fair price+ vig

Well, it is a great idea for you.  Bad idea for them, since the transaction could get reversed in circumstances like where the account owner later claims the transfer wasn't authorized.

Does it make sense to send MB to another MB acct holder with a personal MB acct and have then send me BTC?

If you know someone who will trade with you, sure.  There occasionally are people who are willing to accept Moneybookers /Skrill in exchange for bitcoins, but they are few and far between or require that you have a lengthy trust history established, such as one finds on the #bitcoin-otc marketplace's Web of Trust (WoT).

Most certainly.

VirWoX accepts Moneybookers / Skrill for the purchase of Second Life Lindens (SLLs).  You can then trade SLLs for BTCs.
