Do we need to transfer from the sportsbook to the wallet before the switch? If so, what's the deadline?

First time I saw this thread.

Here's what I read...

Secondly, all outstanding sportsbook balances will be transferred over to members’ forum wallets. This will not be completed right away. The sportsbook will remain accessible for members to login and make the transfer themselves if they wish. However, any balances not transferred by the end of January will be done automatically...

Sounds like it might not matter.

I'll switch mine over for now, with one SBR book parlay still pending Illinois to win in hoops today.

If only I knew how to read, eh.

I'll transfer mine over after today's action settles. Had to use a bunch of freeplays.

I can sign in to do transfers but no sports are listed for betting.

SBR Andy will make an announcement about people with freeplays left unusued.

Just you by the sounds.

What error do you get when you try?

Capybara · 01-17-23, 01:16 AM

My last points bet ever was a winning three-teamer. Makes me feel all warm inside.

I will miss you, SBR book and casino.

Sportsbook just posted ALL of the upcoming weekend's NFL games - none missing

Plus NCAA basketball for both today AND tomorrow

Are these playable? Or is the book ending before then?

First, the old data pipeline that powers odds for legacy contests and the sportsbook will be turned off next week - targeting Tuesday, January 17th.

The old data pipeline has now been turned off so those events are no longer accessible.

Good to know - I do now get an error message when clicking on it, so can confirm it's been turned off.

Have a couple ungraded bets from last night left in the sportsbook, but I assume that will all get cleaned up during the transfer process.

cincinnatikid513 · 01-17-23, 05:22 PM

dang racebook killed as well it's all over but the crying

mikejamm · 01-17-23, 06:57 PM

Sad day at SBR. Can’t believe we no longer have trivia and a sports book.

Also calling total bullshit that it wasn’t possible to keep this part of the site active. Congrats “new owners” for putting the final nail in the coffin. ⚰️ Poker, the store, trivia and the sports book, all gone.

And to the “sellers” who basically took the money and ran, a big heady FUK YOU for selling us all out.

The loyalty we showed this site through the years was instantly flushed down the toilet. We took care of our own here, through charities we contributed to and financial assistance to fellow SBR Pro’s families who we lost or suffered illness.

We’re all aware of changing times in the sports betting world and I personally could give a rat’s ass about losing Bitcoin and off shore betting sites, but the way we were informed here was a complete cluster fuk.

Its a damn shame SBR John and whoever else had a hand in this, could’ve been more open with us, possibly soliciting a group of SBR Pro investors to buy the site and keep improving on the good things we once had here.

I myself and I’m sure many others would’ve gladly invested, rather than watch everything we built here, die a slow death.

Good luck “new” SBR, whatever the fuk that is.

playersonly69 · 01-17-23, 07:18 PM

I have around 1700 in freeplays too

Art Vandelay · 01-17-23, 08:10 PM

I've got a couple winning wagers from last night that are still open - Not yet graded... Book was still operational last night

sjm5122 · 01-17-23, 08:14 PM

I just miss gambling away my points in the casino. Passed a lot of time at work that way

I had two winners from January 16th, but haven't been graded. SOL?

Stallion · 01-17-23, 10:18 PM

I can't bet on anything in the book, keep getting error message

The SBR Book is now closed for new betting.

Only points transfers still work. It will be taken down around the end of January.

I wouldn't worry about betpoints anymore. Based on new owners previous promises I wouldn't be surprised if one day down the road there is an announcement that they decided to kill the betpoints like they killed everything else since they took over. I think betpoints is the only item left to kill from what the old owners created.

I don't know why the new owner believes we'll stick around for these "new money contests"??? There's too much competition... we don't even know if some of these handles are fake? At least Betpoints made everyone feel like they were winning something... absolutely a brilliant invention by John. To totally throw away the point system.... is probably the worst decision the new owner could ever make.

I wish there was a sign when John sold... We will be changing EVERYTHING around.... nothing from the original owner will stay. lol just speak the truth.

Some business people learn the hard way that if it ain't broken don't fix it. I see it everywhere I go. Someone buys a new restaurant and they try to mess with the dishes that the old customers love and make changes and after a few years they go out of business.

I understand the SB is now closed but our wagers were made on Monday when it was still open. They just need to be graded...

No excuses for SBR that plays from 1/16 were not graded today, 1/17.
Open Bets from 1/16 should have been graded and wins placed into ones Sportsbook balance.
I would not assume anything here at the "renovated" SBR, other than manana...

Pinocchio · 01-18-23, 01:50 AM

But the solution is - leave this site and never come back. That will teach them...

Except, they know degenerate gamblers can't do it...

pologq · 01-18-23, 08:08 AM

i hope betpoints do not disappear but if they are worth nothing then no need to keep them. sad.
