    Early BTP question 2011

    What book will we have to load to play? I need to go ahead and join that book in the next few days. Lou or anyone who possesses this knowledge please share. Thanks.

    Obviously it will be a book that US posters can play and has a banner at top of page.

    Thanks for narrowing it down to just 9 or 10 Sherlock. I appreciate the informative narrative you provided.

    Sorry guys - the BTP contest structure is being guarded more than the original KFC recipe.

    You're just going to have to wait patiently this week.

    Lou as long as you give us some time so we all will know. I do think it would be able to accept US players I hope!! How long do you think it will be before we know since the lockout is over with.

    I have a feeling it will end up being Legends. I hope not, not really interested in using that book, and I already have accounts at too many books as it is.

    I still think it would be in both SBR and the members best interest to make it a multi-sponsored contest where you can choose which book you want to use for the contest (like on the pro application). When you limit it to one specific book, lots of people will not want to sign up at that specific book for one reason or another, and will end up playing for points instead. Double edged sword for SBR. More options the better for both sides.

    Lou responded the other day in another thread that it was probably going to be Legends and he would let everyone know very soon.
    Don't remember the thread but it was 3-4 days ago I think.

    John mentioned in another thread that it is just a points contest this year, except for the season ending grand prizes. The grand prize pool was basically the same amount as the weekly prize pool last year. So I guess it doesn't matter.

    If that's the case,who cares who the book is.Are they going to make you sign at a book to win points?Don't see many signups for that.

    Forget I asked the question if playing for points is the answer. Not worth my time and effort to deposit or start up at another book.

    I take it there will be no BTP this year? Gamblers are going to spend their money somewhere, BTP better poop or get off the pot.
