    So the least I can do for SBR John...

    ...is give a shoutout to the SBR Casino after taking it (and a bit of the sportsbook) for 20,000 points in the last week. Placed a good-sized order in the SBR store last evening.

    Thanks SBR.

    Vast majority of it was Blackjack, usually martingaling. Well aware that I had to get very lucky not to bust out using this mentality.

    Thanks gentlemen

    Debated about the ipad for a while. That will be the next purchase if im lucky enough to ever get back there. I actually held onto about 2400 points which I ran up to 7K before busting out

    As far as newegg goes was looking at this guy: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16889005260

    Good job, SBR sucked me back in with that New Years giveaway. I lost 700 on one hand last night.

    Didn't help I was very drunk at the time. Figured I would take a shot.

    Easy come, easy go.

    I've definitely lost plenty doing it before. I managed to avoid the really bad runs until after I had made my store purchase (think I lost 22 of 24 after that) and hit a few blackjacks at 700 points a hand. Probably would never happen again though im sure ill still try at some point.

    not true. My 1-year-old samsung does it if there is an image there for like 30 sec. Eventually it goes away after like a minute, but it still sucks. I also have a 3-yr-old panasonic that has no problems with it at all.

    Samsung makes great LCDs but i will never get a plasma from them again

    Nice hit DrStale!

    I won almost 700 the last two days playing Let It Ride Poker. I was just messing around playing 1 and 2 point bets, got on a couple nice streaks and hit a couple big hands.

    It was anything but strategically sound. When I was patient I was starting with 25 and when I was impatient or tilting I was starting with 100, sometimes 50. I had about 200 points on the 28th which I doubled up a couple times on Bowl bets then won some in Blackjack, then had 1500 on Oklahoma -13.5 which I got insanely lucky to hit. I moved up and down for a few days and then yesterday won like 13,000 almost entirely in blackjack betting 25/50/100... or 100/200/400/700...
