    Welcome. My advice, go pro and play the poker tournies and ring games. Reasonably easy to gather points.

    once you have acquired points, be sure not to lose them to the master of the ring games here at sbr, an id by the name of bitemeusadoj or something like that..... he will syphon off your chips like a hoover vacuum cleaner..... good luck!

    Responsible?... It's poker, your 100% assured a suck out or a bad beat of some kind, my case all the time at the moment on sbr. Nothing against you beerdog just getting out some frustration here.

    Everybody that plays poker takes and gives "bad beats". If you are not, you are either playing too loose or too tight.

    It's a love/hate relationship for sbr poker! One minute your sitting nice then the next you get runner runner beat with cards that shouldn't of been in the hand!! But hell it's all gambling and I have to say right now I hate it from the past week lol! But it's still fun and gotta give props to sbr for all the promotional poker and tournies!

    i also agree with omaha being a permanent table game. It does have a lot of action and good to switch it up to clear points!

    Jake did you have a KK to AA yesterday, along with two gut shots that hit on river, multiple others as well. Guess not. Or maybe I can't handle it.

    It just doesn't seem to let me get the best of it is all Jake, it's ok, I'm sure eventually I'll have a good day, until then it's nice to know some is going to charity. The free contest are nice to have as well.

    Actually very good advice!! Pro is a no-brainer (http://www.sportsbookreview.com/foru...v-even-us.html) and then the poker - if you play tourneys every day and can't cash at least one a week - you must really suck at poker. I wish I could play more often. Ring games can be hit or miss - but the tourneys should be easy points every week - you should really pretty easily pick up 100 points a week on poker

    Rule #1 is to go Pro. More points oppurtunities. Plus without Pro your points are useless as they can't be cashed out in the store. I accumulate my points in 3 different ways. #1 is tournaments. #2 capping contests, only available to Pros. #3 Trivia, also only available to pros. Please keep your distance from the Casino. I blew thousands before I finally shook that habit. As a lot of people have.
