    Here is an idea to boost SBR Casino and Sportsbook business
    Instead of awarding 6 or 7 points to the Wallets everyday award 10 points (5 points directly awarded to the SBR Casino and 5 points in the SBR Sportsbook) and then posters have to wager once in casino and once in sportsbook on a side or total before moving points out of the casino or book.

    So you are giving them more points but they have to use them at the Casino or Sportsbook first before becoming theirs. It's like a daily freeplay with a 1X rollover.

      why not open a points exchange like BetFair or matchbook
      and that would take care of JJ argument than Americans are too lazy and stupid to use exchanges
      no better place to learn on how to seed markets than with sbr points

          I am a big fan of this.

          I like Pavy's suggestion, but I think SBR would be giving up more than 7 points a day if it were 5 and 5. Not sure if they want to give more points per day than they are already.

            Do you think 100% of the points will be won? Yes they give you 5 at the sportsbook but even if you win your bet you get 4.5 because of the -110 juice. Then you also have to bet 5 in casino. Do you think 50% will be able to cash out? So it will even out at the end because half or more of the points will be retained in the casino and book from losses.

              great idea, paver
              wonder that no one has thought about this earlier.

              i dont think an exchange would work right now,
              if there isnt even enough liquidity on matchbook you really think there would be enough money(points) available on a sbr posters exchange ?
              forget about it.

                  Actually I think John said recently he wanted to give away more points, not less. He wants to fine tune the system but overall he's not looking to cut back, he wants to give more to his loyal posters. Now could that be lip service? I suppose but I tend to take him at his word until given a reason not to.

                    I like this idea too but wouldn't want to be the moderator answering questions from the populace.

                      Great way for SBR to get people hooked on their casino. SBR would end up getting their points back anyway...plus+plus

                        Forcing people to play in a casino or the sportsbook is not right. That's like telling everyone they have to eat a chocolate candy bar even if you're allergic to them. Ever seen a person have that kind of reaction? Trust me, it's not pretty.

                            I'm not a big fan of this idea, if someone doesn't want to use the casino they shouldn't be forced to

                              I'd love it if this hapened, doubt it will though. Still a good idea.
