    Please let me buy $150 in Amazon Gift Cards with my betpoints!


    $65 worth of Bitcoin for sale. I won $150 on here last year and the price has dropped ever since.

    I'm not the 1st to suggest this, but using points as a buy-in for gift card contests would be a great replacement for the store.

    It would thin the herd, points won't go to waste, and it will keep SBR from getting in over their head.

    What’s funny is how sbr still keeps having bet points contests like they mean something, and people keep playing for something that has had no value for 14 months and counting. They’re just stringing it along for football season and never intended to pay after jjgold and his 400,000+ posts redeemed his for $250.

    Even if the bet points had no value some of us would still enter the bet point competitions. We do so for entertainment. Bet points are just a way of keeping score.

    agreed. just want honesty. i think the system would need re-vamping though to fit this model but it is feasible.

    Being that new SBR management moves at a three-toed sloth's pace, is their intention to have their updated betpoint redemption program in place by the start of the 2023-24 Football season? 2 years of contemplation should certainly be sufficient.

    Good point.

    The amount of lies we have been told the last 12 months are more than the outstanding betpoints.

    You must have saved all your participation trophies, bet points have always been totally worthless for non pros like yourself. They’ve become worthless for everyone 14 months ago.

    I predicted this would happen.

    Obviously points would not have the same value. But they do still seem to have a commitment to having a value to points because they just committed to points and actually paid out and I was lucky to get my $100 back from last year by acting quickly.

    They are still giving out thousands of dollars in contests which is more than any other forum is going to do. So it is still the best gambling site on the internet. You are not going to get anything close anywhere else and they still think this place is going to work out so there is potential for more.

    Hang around or don't. Complaining will do you no good. Make of the site what you will. It's a new world.

    Worthless or not, bets are currently not even working for me in the pointsbook. I just get an error, and I currently have an "at risk" balance of negative 145.

    Anyone know what that's about or who I message about that? I need to bet my probably-worthless 2,000 freeplay points!

    Best thing that happened to me is betpoints becoming worthless. Now I spend more time betting at books and making more money. All the years of betting with betpoints and testing betting techniques is finally paying off in real gambling.

    contact one of the mods they can fix that sportsbook negative balance, u probably wagered ur freeplay on something that tied or pushed and it messed everything up

    freeplay wagers pushes are no bueno stick to .5 lines or money lines

    I will request it is zeroed out for you.

    It happens when you use a freeplay that pushes.

    I don't think LT got the memo yet that the points are worthless. I like when they told us for 9 months that the store will open and it will be better than ever. It went so good I actually missed the 3 day period to place an order. It was like when the new Playstation comes out people were sleeping outside the store for a week to buy the 5 Playstations that the store received.

    To Be honest. I am not sure how the old owners ever made money with the model they offered. It was just too good to be true for us, imo. I hate the changes too but we should just be grateful for what we had because you can't expect a business to give away the farm like they did.
