    The SBR year in review. What was one of your SBR highlights?

    Did you nervously hold on in a contest or poker tourney?

    Did JJ Gold change your life with a tidbit of advice or maybe his how to box video?

    Did you buy JPM at 29 last month as some astute trader recommended?

    Hit a Royal, get a Bad Beat shirt, flirt with Shari, TT's towel, hit a big parlay, send Bateman over the edge, Beat up on The Prick, get a trivia badge??

    John, make it happen. I want to see Bateman at the bash next year. Is it going to be held in CR again?

    Highlight of the year was knocking carselelr4 out of charity poker tourney after he kept saying him winning was "poetic justice" (for being "falsely" accused of stealing from charity). When I eliminated I had to say "now that IS poetic justice."

    Also, the several thousand dollars of sportscash cash I won/bought when it was still an option was awesome. Thanks SBR!

    Don't forget Opie's Texas Ranger crying video...that was pretty funny. TTWarrior's videos are legendary stuff and JJGOLD is great too. My top three for sure.

    Definitely has been a great time.

    My highlight was taking 100 points into the casino for some fun, turning it into 5300, and getting a PS3 w/ PS Move ($350)

    Got $600 in gift cards since then and a few pizzas, and daily poker is fun.

    Great site.

    also...

    1.Trivia winnings turned in to freeplays
    2.the prices of items in the SBR Store won't be raised until such and such a date, they they were raised before that date
    3.Lucky Chuck hits a huge parlay and isn't Pro. Without prior announcement SBR caps how many points you could transfer when you become pro
    4.SBR chat is now a ghost town
    5.SBR Promo Freebiepooloza was an utter bomb. At the very least someone should admit it and not say they are backed up due to the popularity of the first freebie. On top of that you have a mod say 90% of the posters got the message in their inbox, but clearly 90% didn't. Maybe 50% being generous.

    Congrads on that score!

    The first night of the bash at the Del Rey was some kind of exotic sexual star wars bar scene. I'll go with that.

    Worse thing was missing the Bash this year after making the first three. Bring it back to Veagas!!!

    Other good things include reading the forum daily, Sucking at trivia, playing poker and participating in contests.

    LOTS of great moments on the chit-chat room for me this year.

    I would say 2 of my very favorite were.....

    the SBR Bash in its entirety. One of the best trips I've ever been on. We were treated first class all along the way, and I really enjoyed getting to meet a bunch of great posters and fellow SBR employees stationed at the Mother Ship.

    My other favorite, feel good memory of this year was kicking JJ Gold's ass in Las Vegas and watching him run down the hallways of the Venetian screaming like a little bitch!

    God Bless us all.......everyone.

    This was also my top highlight!

    Placing in the money for the Charity tournament was indeed "Poetic Justice".

    Look at my Charity Badge. It's very awesome!
