    Pavy only a Pro can win the grand finale. We will verify the player.

    It is tight to get a v-i-s-a but you can get an expedited one.(for an extra fee)

    Its hard to have a perfect promo. But this one gives out about 100,000 points and sends someone to represent SBR to the WSOP. And gives a guy a chance to win 8 million large.

    I should have read the fine print (#7).

    This is a great promo. Thanks for doing this contest SBR! It will be great if the winner is featured on TV wearing all the SBRPoker gear taking down one of the actual poker Pros!!

    Wow very nice SBR

    I was going to ask if they were going to do something with the WSOP but I didn't think it would happen much less be a seat at the main event. Maybe SBR is looking to be taken more seriously in the poker world. Thanks for the chance.

    Super great promo John. But, if i won, I would sure like to "sell" my spot to a much better player and thus representative of/for SBR. Would be an SBR member, just not me. We can negotiate later about this!! lol

    Provide a cab or gas receipt and SBR will reimburse the cost of transportation.

    As the rules indicate, the ticket is non-transferable.

    4. Ticket is non-transferable and may not be exchanged for cash.

    people complaining are ridiculous, b1tching about a free promotion. if you dont like it then dont participate. SBR doesnt owe you anything, were lucky they give us so many opportunites to win free items. GTFO spoiled b1tches

    Have not read entire thread, but saw earlier issues with 2nd place. I propose you should send 2nd place to Vegas to cheer and also represent SBR... Obviously not a buy-in to WSOP, but at least you get a free trip to Vegas (flight/room) to watch the games and gamble some of your own money (maybe even throw in $500 to have fun with). Not a huge additional investment by SBR, but definitely a good consolation prize for the runner up.

    If anything, there may be a need to add more seats. =)

    The series should be at least twice as popular as previous poker events. It's the World Series of poker main event!

    if you don't ask you will not get anything ... I remember a thread/post where someone asked for a contest with a WSOP ticket as a prize ... now you have a poker tourney and 1st place will go to WSOP main event

    ... and sometimes bitching leads to improvement

    if the grand final will be played with the usual SBR Turbo blind structure it is just a lottery and not a poker tournament,as great as this promotion is, it deserves a proper final, and not a finale where everyone is all in at the end, plus the 2nd and 3rd placed should be rewrded with some sportsbook cash or something, otherwise a awesome promotion as usual thanks SBR

    Interesting question, but if you have ever bought anything from the SBR store then they probably have your name and address on record. If not, then I guess whoever wins it could perhaps get somebody else to go in their place, you could find someone who is willing to buy your spot and they pay you for it and go in your place. If SBR doesn't have your name/address/etc/ then they have no idea who the winner is so it could be anybody you want.
