SBR Poker Sharps Championship 2016: $5,000 & 150K Betpoints

[Triple_D_Bet]

This. It's so lopsided from 1st to 2nd place. I wish sbr would allow deals in chat, but they need the ability to pause the software.

I'd prefer more of a normal payout structure at least for the top 3 at least but it's their call.

Going to take a lot of luck and skill. At a bare minimum we need more starting chips and a longer structure.

I know people Say it's free and quit complaining etc. I understand that, but I'm a pro, support the site, and we put a lot of time into these things for one shot with 2000 chips and a crapshoot

Payout structure is a little top-heavy, but not by that much really...it only seems drastic compared to the participation awards given out in the dailies. More chips is definitely a good idea for 5k top prize, but the payout structure is pretty good I think, much more in line with normal poker

Thanks SBR

A 6:1 ($800-900 for second) difference for 1st and 2nd is not remotely the norm for any tournaments ever. The worst I've seen is 2.5:1. I won't even mention the drop offs for the other places.


I respectfully disagree ;-)

Very generous SBR so TY... but as others have mentioned, the final tourney really needs a better structure. Winner should win playing poker, not bingo... just sayin'. Last final was pretty ridiculous with fold/push flipping for stacks with close to half the field left out of the 100. That's not poker.

Anyway... thanks for the promo and the opportunities SBR provides. Appreciated.

[Dan Kelly]

Great Job, as usual, Thanks SBR

I kind of prefer it to be a shorter time to qualify. The month break between series was good.

The days of 50 player championships are over it appears.

[El Nino]

Bring back the 10am

35000 points is worth $2500 in sportsbook cash.

$2,500 is a pretty good deal for non US residents, as it's only worth $1,785.71 in pizza for US residents.

[Mayberry]

Great promotion! Looking forward to my first full promo. Best of luck guys.

[RonPaul2008]

Nice, didn't realize that when I played earlier today.

Worth a little over 1k for the most useful gift cards.

For everyone playing in this tourney series, take a screenshot or write down your "2016 Tourney Stats" now. You'll know exactly where you stand throughout the promo.

Cutoff will be around 2800-3000 for top 100, this promo is a bit shorter

Only time in my life that i will be in top 5 and no list. Way to break an old man's heart. When you get old you live for the trivial things. Being on the top of the list after the first week of btp, brook landers and poker war. By they way thanks sbr. You make an old man's life better.

Americans don't have that option unfortunately

[Igor_1965]

Americans don't have that option unfortunately

Europeans don't have access to as many locals. I am not sure which is worse.

[The Inevitable]

I remember when the first daily tourney was at 10am and I could actually play in these more than once a week.

oh my god

[RonPaul2008]

At 3 cents per sbr point(amazon card value), that would be 166,666 betpoints for $5000. Could the winner elect to take that instead of 5k in btc?
