    Probably be 10x as many but if you have discipline only so long before you outgrow the wading pool...

      It is a sign of pure incompetence that you are even asking the question of throwing winners out of a book with such (de facto) low limits. Do you really not know how to profit from this?

        Stealing the winners picks and betting them for cash at other books?

          Considering how much Taddy and Reload have lost in the past couple of weeks along with that oh so +ev honest casino you guys run, I'd say you fuk's are doing just fine. Now if you'd just come up with a poker program that didn't favor the same players every damn tourney, get rid of the fuk'in plants and the bullshit newbie non pros winning every race all the fuk'in time scam, you might actually become a respectable place to play.

              Why don't you make your own lines instead if copying from bookmaker?

              No need to punish players who do their homework and beat the lines fair and square.



              No worries, Paver. You're not one of the 50-60 guys he's talking about. Rest assured....your play is always welcome here.

                      I feel like the huge payouts for poker in the beginning screwed ya over a bit. Some of the sharp bastards won a big sum and sat on it like it was a SBR savings account and are still rolling off that.

                        I can assure all that limits are directly correlated to the success of the book. Plus, its almost always one of the gang of 50 that are asking for higher limits(excluding Pavy of course).

                          Here's an idea. Subtract 12 points per sharp per day , in 2014 , force the sharps to buy sharp insurance at a cost of 12 additional points per day and "redistribute" those points to all the squares so everyone can gamble equally. You can call it "No square left behind, no sharp gets ahead". By 2015 betpoints will be worthless and the store will not exist but rest assured all players WILL be gambling.

                            Surprised Paver does not bet $3000 a game at a sportsbook soccer bets

                            Interesting because he say he is good.

                              Then since I'm not one of the 50-60 guys that he is talking about please up my soccer limits from 250 points max to 5000 and watch me lose it all. My action should be welcomed according to you without puny 250 points limits.

                                I would like to be limited in the book and casino..I lose too many points

                                I swear SBR book is run by Eddie Mush, every bet gets mushed if I bet in the points book.

                                  There are a couple of thousand active players in the rewards book. There are around 50-60 very consistent winners.

                                  I'm fine with leaving a good program alone. But those 60 do take out a lot of value that could be redistributed to the thousands if they had lower limits. (Did I just say redistributed??? spit-spit)

                                  You are going to do what you want to do anyway. Why do you pose the question like you care what people think vs what suites your best interests?

                                    Good point.

                                    The program overall is successful. I can see a lot better why books limit some. If we did that we could have higher limits and more offerings.

                                    I'm fine with leaving it alone. It's always nice to get feedback before a decision is made.

                                        To humor you I will add what I think. Why penalize the masses who aren't sharp? For every sharp guy there is, whatta say, 500 non sharp guys? No need to make it more difficult for the average Joe.

                                        I don't hate SBR and understand what you had in the points beginning wouldn't last for long. Those times were footloose and fancy free. Being your average Joe it is tough to grind things out. If I got a thrill off of a points bet it would be all the rage, but sad to say it doesn't work for me. The casino I do hold high praise for.

                                            Points have street value around 3cents American. If you have 50-60 guys that consistently make money on your book. Force them to place bets at least 5 mins before game start. Pm me the play and line they got. Raise limits as much as you want and I will ship them whatever they buy from store with those points. I will get WAY more value than 3 cents per point!!!

                                                        What happened to that Trix guy? Was Archie Trix? I always wondered why he went underground once Wagerweb paid him. I haven't seen him around.
