      I hate to complain but it assumes you have the time to waste playing the SBR poker games all year....why can the Championship be an actual accounting for the poker players that are also members of this community?

      No offense to SBR poker at all, jsut realise it does not cater to me so I consider it a complete waste of my time.

      I do however want to participate in the Championship! and I want the title (I dont really even care about the prizes).

      In fact if permitted to play I would donate all winnings back to the players distribute my winnings among the other winners.

      Maybe have another tournament and call this one the 'Tournament of Champions' or something. SBR championship seems bad because you alienate cash players who play elsewhere.
      Your comments are a direct insult to this poker community that plays for the love of the game and self improvment.
      Clearly you do not understand the pride we all have in participating in this hand out by SBR/ Bodog?Bovada challange, however it is remarcably clear that you do not have what it takes to make the numbers that indicate your capabilities in order to participate.

        lol at this unc clown.

        you cant play an sbr tournament at the same time you are playing online at another site? i do it literally every day.

        just leave an hour later if you plan on playing live poker if you dont partake in online poker, not hard to fit these into your schedule.

          Special surprise:

          In the last Poker Championship, a lot of guys complained about the final table blinds going too quickly. When the Championship gets to these stages, there will be extended blind time. You'll also start with a few more chips.

            Thanks SBR for having these poker series and giving away all that you do.

            Congrats to all the players that made the cut and good luck to those in the sats.

            Nice move Lou. Bigger starting stacks and longer blinds is the way to go.

            Good luck everyone and Happy Holidays!!

              like this move lou. lot of tournaments are making the blind levels later in the tournaments longer these days.

                        Can we get a recount on this whole thing?

                        I'm sure you missed 5 points somewhere.....

                              Yea, Would be cool if you won something for grinding out months worth of tourneys and coming in 1st or top 5. This is the 2nd time i took 1st in these long series and then get knocked out of the 1 big one to end with nothing ( variance can be a mofo ).

                                  Yeah I agree. They should give out points along the way when you finish in the top 20 of an individual tournament or something

                                  Come on Lou

                                                  2 things

                                                  1. Next year we really need hand for hand play on the bubble of tournaments.

                                                  2. Anyone that talks strategy from the rail in these tournaments need chat banned. If a mod is not able to watch table chat, turn all observer chat off. It happens too many times.

                                                    1. Next year we really need hand for hand play on the bubble of tournaments.

                                                    2. Anyone that talks strategy from the rail in these tournaments need chat banned. If a mod is not able to watch table chat, turn all observer chat off. It happens too many times.

                                                        You think others here don't oft times find it a pain in the ass to find the time to grind out these tourneys in order to qualify? What makes you so special that that we (the participating community) many times have to jostle around our schedules b/c we understand what the rules and parameters are for these kinds of promotions SBR generously offers, yet, 'special' people like you needn't be bothered??? Pffft... take a hike.

                                                        These types of promos reward participating members.

                                                        And FYI... I play poker for cash at casinos (no, not a 'pro' like I'm sure you are ) and I know for a fact other people on that list play cash/$tournaments both live and online fairly regularly.

                                                        You want to have a shot sometime in something like this?... EASY answer pal: PARTICIPATE.

                                                        I guess I'm more curious if a non participation required tournament can also be offered for people who don't currently play on SBR.

                                                        No need to get all butthurt poker pros , it was just a thought, relax.

Not looking for anything but just saying it would be cool if there was some kind of prizes for the top players after months worth of tourneys. I know we win points along the way and everything SBR gives out is more than generous. Instead of having the whole prize pool put in to 1 tourney maybe put 20 or 30% to the final standings in the future.
