Two Main Things Critical To Keep SBR At The Top

Optional · 12-01-21, 07:56 AM

The Sportsbook definitely needs to be back and better. Soon. Frustrating for all that it is taking so long.

You were the one who told people to stop crying when they switched off the classic version.

No idea of the tech challenges to doing that, but I'm guessing it would be a lot of extra work over using the new version to get started.

We're not dealing with "Keep SBR at the top" but "Getting SBR back to the top".
The last month hasn't been pretty.

hubie69 · 12-01-21, 09:18 AM

As to betpoints (perhaps this has been mentioned already but I missed it), what happens to these for those of us who have to renew before "spring 2022"? Do we keep those points on renewal?

jjgold · 12-01-21, 09:43 AM

Hubie good question

Hire hubie to tackle odds format

Roger T. Bannon · 12-01-21, 09:50 AM

I don't think software will be the problem. The rest of it I am not so sure about.

toddsclowns · 12-01-21, 09:52 AM

Do the new owners not have any competent IT folks? Getting lines up seems like the easiest part. I know a couple college kids who could run this joke from their dorm rooms

Roger T. Bannon · 12-01-21, 09:54 AM

The big problem is that we are not dealing with the end product. This is just a patch job.

Internationals will be given 3 months extension until options for them are available.

USA posters, I am told nothing will change for now.

Apparently lots of worlds best IT staff.

I have now seen one of the sites the new boss here also looks after and if they transfer that Odds and data setup to here at SBR I think mainstream regulated book users from all over the world will be very happy with it.

Offshore odds and books still more important, yet let's pretend they don't exist anymore

Brock, was that you who started the thread at BMR ripping in to Shari so hard? Serious question.

I know a lot of people don't think much of you. But I thought more of you than that thread shows.

Opti: So I'm curious now what to do with ~ 1800 points. It's not enough to renew pro (should I go that route), sbrbook is pretty much dead so I can't really earn enough points for renewal. Also the store is dead so I can't really spend them. I'm guess they're pretty much worthless (which is ok). It should be noted here that I'm not criticizing SBR for ANY of the above. It's a legit Q that I don't know the answer to. It's also OK if opti/sbr doesn't have an answer yet either. I get there are changes afoot and I'm not bitching, this is more a curiosity Question.

Opti, Thanks for the answers to all the questions that have been raised about the move, I understand you guys might not have everything fully figured out yet. Additionally, if SBR does need a hand on the tech side, I'd be happy to help, shoot me a PM if I can pitch in at all.

Roger T. Bannon · 12-01-21, 11:39 AM

You can keep 1800 points. So if you lose PRO, you have lost nothing. If you are not sure it is worth it, just wait until March and you will see what the site is going to be and how it is working out. You will not have lost much in the meantime.

JIBBBY · 12-01-21, 11:41 AM

Post constant winners to draw attention in thread starts is all you need. We need red hot cappers..

Total mushers could work also on the flip to tail.

Yes, basically mods don't have detailed answers to much yet. I'm not sure anyone does for sure.

But your 1800 betpoints will (should) eventually be worth at least as much as they were before 15th October.

And if other people think points are useless, you should be able to borrow the other 1200 to renew fairly easily if you dont win/earn enough in time.

Play poker at 1pm ET each day. Only a small crowd are collecting the 1500 points there each day.

Just got my confirmation on my pro status re up.... What's a hundred bucks..... especially when it goes to a charity! On a gambling site ...taking a shot that the "NEW" SBR format will be bigger and better!

Even with SBR's recent struggles, is any other site even close?

I don't think so, other sites don't even have a sportsbook, poker, rewards etc to begin with.

I guess my question on renewal was do we lose those points?

I would play poker if I could, since I don't run windows anywhere, for anything, I can't really play poker. Which yeah, that's not an SBR problem, I just refuse to use windows. Thanks opti for the response!

Oh for sure, I'll likely stick around for the new site. Was just a curiosity if I lose those points on renewal

Reload · 12-01-21, 11:54 AM

Still prefer the classic odds all the time. Has always been better.

No you won't lose them. If it cant be completed in time "SBR Forum" will fix it.

Hold those points they will be gold

newton0038 · 12-01-21, 01:23 PM

SBR has become synonymous with SPORTSBOOK COMPLAINTS to mostly amicable resolutions between player and book. This service MUST continue.
Book gradings are an issue with players maybe/maybe not trusting them and the site ad whoring A+ books that ARE IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM A+. That animosity cannot continue if the site is to looking to be a goto for players. Game brakedowns and previews are essential and drives more traffic to the site. Ask players for their betting resumes and maybe put together analysis sections for particular sports and spot plays. Lots can be done and as always with owenership changes, there are growing pains. MUST invest the $$ to reap the revenue $$$$$$.

2. SBR Classic odds is the focus with many books across USA , no need to have two

with emphasis on accuracy and uptime and added handicapping features .

The rewards stuff will be ok but #1 has to happen 1st

Strange to list #2 when SBR hasn't updated college football games for this upcoming championship weekend when they’ve had 4 days to do it.

It was someone trying to sound like you in other posts then. Just thought I would ask, Shari was a bit surprised it might be you.

To you and anyone else, if it wasn't from Brock Landers, then it wasn't from me.

I guess I have no idea why anyone would think otherwise
