    Yes

    Because if you have any ounce of sense then you'll see why being a Pro is +EV. The only people who even understand +EV are those who either aren't broke or are struggling not to be.

    If you're not a Pro and yet are betting even $50 on a game, you're a fukkin cabbage roll.

    Booya you should know but it's not a $100 its $200 and its not like you just hand SBR $200 and they just write SBR Pro under your avatar...

    that $200 goes to whatever online sportsbook you choose. and you actually get to gamble with it. And if you are one of the few out there who gets lucky and wins then most of the sportsbooks will pay you. Not all ofcourse (Betislands) but most will.

    on some of my other handles i am a pro.

    so thats the latest one of your fictional stories....?

    If you really were on the hook for $15,000 you should do this....

    Take $4,000 of that and book yourself a ticket to Australia in a few days.... save $2,000 for spending money.. and gamble with the other $6,000 ...start with $6,000 on the first game and go all in doubling down on each bet until you either reach $50,000 or you lose and if you lose just hop on a plane to Australia and never come back ... i doubt the loan sharks are going to follow you that far.

    if you reach $50,000 .. go to your loan shark pay him his 15K back and keep $35,000 and you can at that point decide if u want to take a vacation to Australia or stay in Las Vegas and gamble with house money... i guess you could chill in Australia for awhile soak up some sun on that bald head of yours (its summer in Aussie land) and the hoez down under are easy i hear. Even you might get your rooster wet.

    no he does NOT disprove your theory. Can't you read where it says "pro ' under his name.

    your thread is asking if non pros are broke.. no?

    Don't you owe the bookie $15,000? That puts you in the red, worse then broke. Stay steady with the bets and don't chase coach.

    When I wasn't a pro I didn't think it meant much

    now that I am pro, honestly, I look down on those who are not pro

    it shows that you really are a broke dikk who can't even donate and get some free pizza

    How do you even become pro? You just have to prove you have $200 in a sports book or you have to pay the $200?

    As long as you nutters have the chance to either cash out for gift cards - SURE THINGS - or even sportsbook cash depending on your location, then you're a dipshit for not going Pro.

    Imagine asking Sir William Gates or Le Warren Buffay if they'd take part in a program like this. They'd piss themselves laughing at the thought of even hesitating. You're getting rewarded TANGIBLY for something you're going to do anyway - log in here every day. Plus the other chances to earn points as a Pro.

    If I were in the US I'd use my membership to have a massive pizza party or a gift drive for disadvantaged kids once a year with the points I earn for merely logging in and then buy some cool stuff for my family too. Win win. Even if you just want to spend the points on your family that's cool too. If you're in the US it took a lovely donation to get that Pro membership for a year so that works out well!

    Supporting SBR is what keeps all the cool features of this place ticking. Fortunately we're able to get some really cool perks back on top of that. If you're not a Pro in 2015 I really have to start to wonder about the supposed 'sharpness' of some on here.
