    D, there is no limit. However, the fact that players have to pony up 10 points for the early tourney and 20 points for the bigger one will keep the numbers down. When we run this format on the weekends the tourney averages 60. I would expect we could see 75 to 100 in these.

    If there is a big overlay I don't have a problem with SBR including a rollover... No overlay (or a very small one) would be a different discussion...

    Yeah Lou, Do you think it's possible you could maybe lower the rollover since we're having to pay an entry fee. Thanks.

    So does this mean freerolls are nixed for good or will they be returning in the new year?

    Edit by SBR Lou:
    SBR Pros won't have to ante up for the regular Mon-Fri schedule which will be rolled out in 2012. We'll be posting the schedule before Christmas.

    Wow thanks BeerDog! You're a kind fella and a heck of a poker player to boot! Like I said bro, I'm a changed man. No more of the negative mike. I've been pretty lucky in life got a lot to be happy about, and you guys were right, no reason to go around being a jerk on a forum, when we're all just trying to accomplish the same thing, winning some picks, helping out our fellow posters and giving a little back to the less fortunate.

    What's the difference between betpoints and SBR poker points?

    Hi Bengals,

    Regular betpoints are credited straight to your forum wallet once you close the SBR Poker lobby. They can then be immediately used throughout the site, in the store etc.

    SBR Poker Points must be rolled over 3X in the ring game tables which remain open 24/7. You can read a tutorial on how the Poker Points work here.

    Points are points, unless they are bonus points won in a freeroll tourney that need to be rolled over. Note, non-pros can no longer play in the ring games with non-rollover points.

    What are Pro benefits again?

    I thought that being able to participate in poker tourneys for free was a benefit of being a pro?

    Now I am going to be seated at the same table as a non-pro and we both paid the same amount to participate.



    Well at least I can count on my anniversary award....oh wait....they are stopping that too on Jan 1st.

    i don't like this new boring mikejamm.

    on a related note i'm going to act like a jerk and then change, seems like it's getting you nice chunks of points.

    I would think not.

    Nope. The buy-in is regular betpoints.

    The buy-in is no higher than we charge for sportsbook freeplay contests. The argument could be made it's actually easier to roll over in poker.

    This schedule is a holiday schedule.

    But in a few days Lou will announce the Ryder Cup styled SBR World Cup that starts in Jan. We will have tourneys every 4 hours, 24 hours a day!
