    As I said earlier, since snipr kept claiming he was going to win the poker leaderboard bet, even recently when it's now pretty much 100% impossible, I was curious what his angle was. As noted, must be some kind of loophole in the wording which is:

    To win the 2016 Poker Leaderboard
    (first place on dec. 31, 2016 on the 2016 yearly leaderboard in poker,
    as it appears on the first page of the poker forum. no bet if sbr poker
    goes permanent offline before the end of the year)


    Not sure, but maybe his loophole is that the rules never explicitly state that HE has to win the 2016 leaderboard, just says "to win". Not sure, but am curious what his argument was going to be if that came around (hopefully he's banned permanently, and it won't come up but if it does...well what is his angle if not that I wonder...)

    I'm assuming that was his "loophole" that it doesn't say he has to win. However, the majority of the posts state that he has to win and he confirmed them. Plus I still have an outside chance of winning the leaderboard, so even with that "loophole" he'd still owe me.

    Also, as for if he's banned, watch the bowl thread. If they open up another spot then he's gone. If he doesn't make his picks, I'd assume he's banned as well.

    Bans have burned me twice, for a total of 8k+:

    Granted, there's no guarantee I would have been paid if these two clowns weren't banned. But obviously there's no chance of getting paid now.

    Since Sniper owed me 7,500 in link below & I missed the college bowl entry by not seeing thread in time, it would be a very nice gesture on SBR's part if I was granted Sniper's college bowl entry.

    Sniper definitely deserves ban. But under the circumstances of him owing many lost poker bets, why not refund his bowl entry & give him until 1/1/17 to see if he buys pts & makes good on all his debts before banning him?

    Still don't know what Daysleeper did to deserve ban, when it appeared he was trying to support SBR by going pro. I can only assume multi accounts, but since no explanation was ever given that's just speculation.

    waves, you don't "deserve" anything but a similar permanent ban from SBR, for cheating your ass off and cheating SBR by "evening up" after flipping, which you were stupid enough to admit that you do in a thread in the forum.....

    SBR should kick you out altogether rather than let you angle-shoot your way into a contest you were too much of a pussy to directly enter......

    you are one sad fuk

    Apparently SBR disagrees with you chump, why haven't I been banned?

    Coming from a broke dikk who couldn't sniff 100 pts, let alone 2,500 pts to enter college bowl contest.

    Any update from SBR about what happened here? I guess they don't publicly announce it, but the fact that snipr hasn't logged in in three days seems like a good sign. Of course it might be just a short term banning, one week or something, but I can still hope! At the very least if he was banned, even for a short period, hopefully part of the punishment will be not allowing him to compete in the bowl contest since it seems clear he has pulled several unethical/illegal stunts which are probably where those 2500 points come from. So in effect, confiscating them seems more than fair even if he isn't banned for life.

    Unless it's proven Sniper's 2,500 college bowl entry fee came from "unethical/illegal stunts," those 2,500 pts should absolutely not be confiscated. Rather, those pts should be distributed to pay the plethora of poker bets Sniper lost.

    Him winning 55k points is the only chance for anyone to get paid anything, it looks like. You creditors should be rooting for the guy to place 4th

    Sniper can't access any pts won from bowl contest when he's banned, not likely SBR would even allow Sniper to participate in contest while banned anyway. Any restitution to pay lost poker bets on Snipers behalf, would have to come from SBR doing the right thing with Sniper's 2,500 pt entry fee.

    I thought he owes a lot, lot more than 2500. It's like the mob, if you owe them money you can't pay they would rather have you do them favors the rest of your life than get pissed off and cut your throat. I don't see how banning the guy would benefit any single creditor. Unless you, bobby, think you will be the very first in the line when 'sbr does the right thing'.

    Correct, Sniper owes more than 2,500. He owes 15k, 10k in poker debts & 5k in defaulted pt loans.

    Considering all his debt, others are more deserving than SBR to receive Sniper's last 2,500.

    Pretty sure he's banned. Losing PM access is indicative of bans, as most don't disable PM's themselves.

    His last activity was Wed 11/30. Think you can place BTP picks early on Wednesdays, if you want to.

    Some stated he should be banned in this thread, so I'm sure it was brought to a mods attention who decided to take action.

    Are you sure that SBR didn't just disable his PMs so that he couldn't conduct any "illicit" activity via them (as he himself admitted to doing, whether it was true or not) rather than outright banning him? But I do tend to agree that the fact that he hasn't logged in since 11/30 does make it much more likely he was banned. Having BTP picks isn't necessarily relevant as he could have made those before being banned.

    Keep in mind snipr keeps claiming that he isn't going to lose the poker bets - not sure what his angle is, but obviously he has some loophole in mind. So assuming he isn't banned, whether he wins 55k in the bowl contest or not, does anyone really think he's going to pay off those leaderboard bets? He clearly has some reason to think that he isn't losing these bets even though obviously by the intent of what everyone thought those bets were to be, he definitely did.

    Guess time will reveal the answer to all of this...

    I understand SBR's reluctance in getting into matters pertaining to point loans but guy obviously is a scam artist and shouldn't be here....just disappointing since if a guy was out a 4k loan why not ever post anything about it again? In my opinion cash was sent....I remember sbrman23 was banned for 3 weeks for sending a guy a dollar to his P A Y P A L account

    He is currently banned(I'd guess permanent as he has had some issues previously if I remember correctly). He can probalby make BTP picks as that is a a seperate site unto itself and whoever banned probably didnt go in and manually delete from BTP. As for bowl contest he will not be able to make picks as he will not be able to log in.

    Good news downsouth - I presume you have inside knowledge that this is true and are not just speculating?

    Just hope the ban is permanent. As I said above, I tried to give the guy the benefit of the doubt when the four horsemen theory came about, but seeing some of the other things that he has now done (one of which he flat out admitted to!), can't really do so anymore. And if he cheated in poker for at least a month, who knows how many points he essentially stole from other posters. Given his overall actions, definitely not the sort who the community or SBR I think would want around here so hopefully he's gone forever.

    Snipers profile also says "restricted user:" http://www.sportsbookreview.com/foru...r.php?u=209268

    So whatever limited activity he had, Sniper obviously didn't receive 12 pts for logging in.

    Unless I'm missing something, still no official login since November + he didn't enter picks for the bowl contest so hopefully some measure of justice has taken place
