    The Pro Membership fee always went to charity. SBR doesn't owe any of you anything as far as I'm concerned. I never took betpoints seriously. Is what it is now.

    Just know your $100 to sign up went for something good and move on.

      I think PRO was actually a bad idea but it does keep people around so it does work. The actual PROs themselves are worthless.

      That is why SBR is not going to feel too bad about not paying out points. Do you think dlow was worth $6,000?
      I agree. So let the betpoints system crash and burn. We are they keeping it on life support?

            It is gone. The betpoints system worked with offshore. It cannot work with US, at least not for a very long time.

              There would have been no benefit for them to do this.

                  There's no benefit to not going around robbing old ladies either but that doesn't mean you do it.

                    Hey mikeypuss, aren't you owed like $1000 in contest winnings? Get them yet? Man, imagine all the anonymous dudes you could lure to Vegas with that, which is of course your documented greatest wish. Must sting.

                        Lol, what? This isn't charity.

                        Sbr received ad money and in exchange compensated posters for their time which is what produced their ad dollars. They decided to run a sportsbook which surely recollected some of that compensation back but not everyone lost. Now, the "offshore watchdog" presumably wants to stiff winners along with collecting points back from losers.

                        Your statement, "Do you think dlow was worth $6000?" is about as valid as one of mikejamm's many gloryhole clients asking, "Was that worth $5?" after the fact. The deed was done, it's not a payment for future performance. Would you be defending Bookmaker if they decided not to pay a winner's payout request because they didn't think that player was "worth it"? Man ur dumb

                            Wrong. They promised something for our time. They collected on their end and now seem to be stiffing on our end.

                              LOL. You think you are worth $6,000 to SBR? That is pretty funny.

                              The points program was an incentive to visit SBR. It kept people coming back.

                              The reason you have contests is to attract new people to the site. That was the purpose of the football contest. Not to give you money.

                              SBR PROs think SBR was just confused. They did not understand that they were giving non-PROS money when it was supposed to be going to PROs. The only reason they ever gave money was to attract new people and incentive people to visit the site.

                              That incentive is gone now. They don't own the site. The new company does not make money the same way so you are worthless. You were worthless to SBR and you are worthless to the new company. You never had $6000. You had to cash them out. You missed your opportunity and that is on you just like my loss of points is on me. My fault, nobody else's. I had my chance and blew it.

                                Hey idiot, read my post again. Asking if I think I'm worth my points balance to SBR is like asking mikejamm's gloryhole client if the service he just got was worth $5. That client can decide to not pay and deal with the consequences which is what SBR seems to be doing, but asking if it was worth it in order to determine if you want to pay after you already collected your end is as ridiculous as ur name, avatar, and pretty much your total SBR presence.

                                    I might as well but I am greedy as the next guy. I am praying they are worth something.

                                    But I understand how the real world works and I understand how SBR works, maybe better than SBR. Definitely better than the new owners.

                                    The fact of the matter is I was a huge waste of money for SBR. But I am glad they wasted as much as they did and hoping they waste my final $500.

                                                    I have about 45k in points, 10k in freeplays and an ungodly amount of poker rollover (30k alone from my recent win)

                                                      Lets look at it this way. SBR can pay you $6,000 or you can walk away. Tough call.

                                                        I'm not arguing they didn't put us in a bad spot. Hopefully they make good. If not, it's not easy but you can find out owner's names and at the very least make it hard for them to do business in the same industry.

                                                            Selling SBR was a shrewd business decision. Points were a strategy. SBR does not consider posters to be worth anything. Posters are part of a strategy. When there is no more SBR, the points have no value to SBR and you wanting to cash out on something of no value is dumb. But of course, there is a reason for that.

They are not going to pay for views like SBR did. SBR was willing to pay for volume and they paid up until the designated date. The new site is not going to pay for past volume and probably did not understand the dynamics of SBR. So the next few months are going to be interesting.

                                                                  It will be fun to see how it all plays out.
