Interesting, I found a buck ten in a account so I am going to see how far I can go with it.

If a $50 gift card for Best Buy cost you $50 at the store and you can get one here for 781 points it stands to reason that 1 SBR point = .064 cents which most likely gets rounded down to the standard agreed since day one total of 1 SBR point = $.06.
Poker, I like ya and I am sure you are either thinking of something else or have something waiting for the one who takes you up on this but 7 SBR points can't possibly equal $1.50.

Probably a lot less assuming SBR isn't stupid enough to pay full value for these items. The Sportsbook stuff all has rollovers which substantially reduces initial value.

And there you have it...Those cards probably cost SBR 45.00 a pop assuming there is a built in discount on bulk.

Considering in order to bet it had to ALL (1.10) be played as I wasn't going to let it just sit there

Tons of books let you bet $1 online. And as far as what a SBR point is worth, seems like a silly argument

It is. My original post was just to let him know that he can bet "more than 1.1" with SBR points, then all this other crap came in.
(but it is possible to get ~22c per point)

Even if you found an item in the SBR store that gave you the correct math, you'd still be wrong. I'm sure you'd try and twist it but the fact is that the closest thing to money in the store are the gift cards, which as Wal has shown here equates to approximately 6 cents per point.
You lose buddy.

Go back to the global warming thread and try to show your ignorance more.
PS: gift cards have the worst value in the store. Common fukkin sense will tell you that

Youre right, it makes much more sense to compare the monetary value of something that can vary as opposed to something that is essentially cash.
But please, bring up a thread from months ago that has nothing to do with this in order to try to paint me as an idiot. Man you're really grasping at straws here. Though I guess if my argument were completely destroyed I would be too.

Just admit a miscalculation. Your pride isn't doing you any favours here.
