    ok every weekend.

    i didnt see that part.. but i still am not sure this will generate "new" video poker players

    with that being said, people will visit the casino on their own.. but doubt anyone is gonna "try" for a shirt like they would have an ipad or something electronic - dre beats headphones/tablet/tv/etc

    thx though

    A Tommy Bahama is no Abercrombie & Fitch. Plus it has the SportsbookReview.com branding, limited edition, pal.

    there is a zero percent chance of getting a natural royal in the SBR Casino, there is a zero percent chance of everything in that casino its mind boggling the ways the house beats you in those games, i wouldnt be suprised to see the dealer get 10+ blackjacks in a row a couple times a day thats how bad the program that runs it is

    Umm, you still get all of the winnings for hitting the Royal.

    This is a good fun promo targeted at players who enjoy playing VP on a regular basis anyway. The value-sniffing trolls will likely stick their tongues out and .

    Lou we understand ur pt.. truly.. but what u are doing is adding 800 pts to a 20k payout.. i mean its very far fetched to hit anyway, but adding 800 pts wont generate any new business there..

    it would be like a casino with a slot machine jackpot of $50,000 offering a free dinner buffet once u hit the jackpot. hehe

    but, normally sbr specials are fun and reward players back highly.. this isnt one of them... its probably just we are spoiled is all

    even though I do not like this promo personally...thx for the offers/promos/contests/etc keep em comin!

    Wasn't going to post in this thread but, as someone who occasionally dabbles in -EV games such as video poker and other degen games like craps and also values value, the jab hit a little to close to home...

    The problem for me is that it actually wouldn't be that bad promo for smallish players (having seen them before a washing machine ate them (twice) they are very nice shirts) if the SBR's Video Poker games' pay tables weren't horrendously and uniformly bad... Bring back some 9/6 Jacks or Better or add some appropriately named Not So Ugly Deuces (25/16/10/4/4...) both of which the house still has an edge in even if you play the game well, so we don't feel like we are playing slots rather then video poker and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one who would occasionally get sucked in with or without a promo...

    Thad and stash can't appreciate anything just ban them from points, people should play less and pay more attention to not slow paying people in their fictitious sportsbook.

    Stash you have to agree he makes valid points though, nothing he said is false.

    You and Thad complain about everything, you play banker for points, and Thad does a terrible job attempting to play bookie with points.

    They cant handle the truth, they have no respect for the freebies sbr provides for us, they think its their god given right to bitch about nice promos and they dont consider it a priviledge.

    FYI, I appreciate the freebies SBR provides very much and regularly compliment their generosity. Just because I also offer my opinion when its negative doesn't mean I don't appreciate anything. SBR totally rocks in many many ways - this promo is just not an example of it.

    Well I would say this is better than them offering nothing for a royal flush. Am I wrong on this issue????

    playing 25 line, hit 5 of a kind, and only netted a tenth of a point for the hand! (total bet .1 per line)

    down from 75 points to about 39, min betting deuces wild 25 line

    losing points on just about every hand.
