        Top 36 US qualify - All Star Team
        Top 3 Become Captains of Each US Team
        Then they draft from the rest of 33 qualifiers for each team
        Now you have 3 fair and balanced teams.

                    That isnt going to happen as part of the "joy" of this promo is the team v team rivalry that builds up during qualifying, and makes the finals the interesting/fun thing they are in this promo.

                      Opti 100 percent correct.......

                      also, having three different usa bubbles the final week or two of qualifying makes it much more interesting, as well.....

                      one usa bubble for top 36 would suck....

                      as for pussies like joefool who are complaining, just play better and quit crying about "donk luck"..... from what i've seen of joe, as he walked to rail whining after I felted him, is his play will never qualify him for a team anyway.......

                            What rivarly is the World Team building when #12 on the World Team needs to cash once to qualify where #13 of US East may cash 600 points or more and not qualify?

                            Same thing happpened last year. Based on last year's fiasco the states could have been redistributed this year to balance the teams.

                                    we can all agree that it isn’t fair, especially for the east players. It’s a shit poker site as it is so either have fun or just don’t play

                                      it was this way last promo with world cup, and in the end, the numbers, if I recall, were all in the same ball park.... alot of people, myself included, really haven't even started playing this promo. once we do, it'll start to even out among the teams.....

                                      east players need to chill.... most of you won't make the team, and wouldn't make the central or west once the numbers come in.

                                      sbr always evens it out in the end........

                                          Standings from Last Year:



                                          #12 West - 695 points

                                          #22 East - 830 points

                                          So 10 people from the East beat the #12 from the West and could have made the West team.

                                          Tell me again how fair this contest is and how well it evens out?

                                                You and JoeCool can go setup your own contest and run it the way you like Pavy.

                                                No need to pollute any more SBR promotion threads with the same suggestion/complaint again.



                                                I see Joe can't stop himself, even when on a timeout for doing it, from continuing to troll the thread too. I think he was officially warned he had no more chances left by admin. So guess we will not be seeing him again on SBR.

                                                    Opti kind of harsh to ban a guy for a nominated post, no?

                                                      If there is something in my posts that violates SBR rules then you can move the posts or delete them. I will have no hard feelings.

                                                        well world cups irl are also unfair. its like how the usa can sometimes qualify for the world cup in soccer because we are in a easy region. it is also easier to make a usa world cup team than it would be for ppl from brazil.

                                                            I don't know about that. I think the US has more people than Brazil so the odds of someone making the US team are harder than making the Brazil national team. The problem with the US is that the best athletes don't play soccer whereas in Brazil the best athletes play soccer.

                                                            So if I understand correctly your analogy you are saying that SBR decided that the US East is the Brazil of SBR Poker so players competing for a spot in the World Cup team must try harder to make the team but the US West is the USA of SBR Poker and not the best athletes can make the team, right?

                                                                yes the east is like brazil. top brazilian soccer players who dont make the world cup brazil team cant try to qualify in the usa even though they would probably make the team easily. team canada used to be like the world cup team that automatically qualified for hosting the event.
