    Uh, looking at your points log up until last week you were bringing the points into the sportsbook to do what? Bet on sports? Your decision to no longer bet on sports was because of the new restrictions on non-pros?

    Some bet money and couldn't care less about points. Looks like points was all you had to bet with

    You could just let them build. Just forget them. If you decided to start betting then you should have enough for cash in a book to get you started.

    Even if you don't bet sports with real money I don't see why you can't make the odd points bet for fun?

    Build up enough points and you just have to place $200 with a sponsor and then go points shopping.

    For you they may seem worthless, but for many non pros they still have lots of value. Many like myself will go pro at some point. Others will get a big poker win or get lucky in the book and will have enough to make it worth going pro for them.

    lol, this is not primarily a discussion forum. It is a business. If you don't like it there is always TheRx which is also a business without the perks SBR has.

    Yah SBR is so unfair for giving you only 6 free points a day when your activities do nothing to support their bottom line.
