SBR World Poker Cup 2018

USA vs Confederates vs Canada vs World

How to make a team

• Rank in the top 12 for points won during SBR Poker tournament play Mon-Fri from April 23rd to August 1st.
• Twelve slots will be assigned for each region. Leader boards will be posted with standings by country. Confederates refers to 12 US members who do not qualify for Team US.

Team Match Schedule (August 6th to August 9th)

• Twelve tournaments per day from 12:00PM-11:00PM ET.
• Four players per tournament (1 player from each region).

Scoring details
Each tournament will award 2 points for the winning team, and 1 point for the runner-ups team. Co-champions will be crowned in the event of a tie with an equal division of the pot. A leader board will be maintained in Players Talk showing how many points each team has.

Prize-pool
Winning team: 10,000 betpoints per person
Runner-up: 5,000 poker pts per person
3rd place: 3,000 poker pts per person
4th place: 1,500 poker pts per person

Fine-print

1. Must be an SBR Pro to represent a team.
2. Users banned during the qualification period may lose their right to make a team at SBR's discretion.
3. One entry per household.
4. Tiebreaker will be SBRforum join date during qualification period. If contestants joined the same day, # of cashes will be used. If # of cashes is tied, # of points won will be used.
5. It will be the responsibility of each team to decide which player will represent them per tourney. Players may compete in only one tournament per day. Players may not share the password with players that have not qualified under any circumstance - no points will be counted for that region. Events will be PW protected & player usernames altered to include region.

Well guess it's back! Can't say it was what I was hoping for, but obviously nice to have a promotion of any kind. Am I correct in assuming the structure of the dailies will stay the same as it has been for the last few months?

[mpaschal34]

Never would have guessed this.

Does this mean we will now get our badges for last year’s victory?

badges? badges? we don't need no stinkin' badges!!!!




who needs badges when we still have the "_confeds" suffix behind our poker screennames?

I take it we're already on the team!!!!

Team Confeds keeps its twelve members while the promo qualifies only teams usa, world, and canada.....

we earned the chance to defend our title!

There are many avenues of SBR that you can engage with other opportunities. The Spring Poker Event was one of the best we have had in awhile. The next Event currently in discussions will again be very exciting and enjoyable for those who play.

Going to lmao when the World Cup is announced.

Called this a month ago. Have to admit, cutting daily prizes and extending this World Cup format until August is quite dynamic

best analogy I can think of is sbr is the babe, and we're the f'n kid on the right:






tho I must say I love the way SBR wiggles its ass before unloading a shot to our pills.......

[thetrinity]

Yawn, basically all summer as well

[cincinnatikid513]

do we even have 12 posters ftom canada ? never see lakerboy otters or seaweed play poker mark me down as canadian has be easy be top 12

[mikejamm]

Wow, real original. This shit again? 4 months of playing for only 24 USA spots? The fuk'ing worst disadvantage for USA players and the best for overseas guys. Colossal waste of time with this bullshit format. Enjoy, broke dik fuks who got no life.

[mpaschal34]

Maybe someday we will see Downsouth’s idea of the top 48 overall and then the top 4 would be captains and do a draft.

[SharpAngles]

That’s why this is a garbage event whether my posts are edited or not. 90% of SBR Poker is fighting for 24 spots. Last year the canucks were actually competitive but every other year since I’ve been around one daily win got the Canadians on a team.

It it would be nice if for once the RSH didn’t piss on our leg and tell us it’s raining, just come clean and say we’re recycling a tired event to save points. We’ll all understand and I guarantee the complaining would not be nearly as loud.

I’ll be there.

[5mike5]

lets not forget the 50% cut in daily touney pts AND the payouts for winning this WC are LESS than last year


I thought cutting daily tourneys was to make promos bigger and better? guess not

[unde0087]

I guess I will move to Canada for a couple of months since they have about 7 players over there. OH CANADA

[cincinnatikid513]

favors the sbr grinders expect see same,names who were at top spring leadeboard even min cash bobby should make

i was thinking maybe an idea next year be like a sbr world series poker have different events like omaha 7 card stud limit holdem etc and a main event and players play for points and maybe some poker badges just a thought for next year

[Auto Donk]

Maybe someday we will see Downsouth’s idea of the top 48 overall and then the top 4 would be captains and do a draft.

this idea was nixxed due to sbr's new found sensitivity.... waves complained, as he would be ridiculed as the last pick, that no one wanted on their team.....

[mikejamm]

Yeah, Downsouth had some good ideas on how to improve this shit. Whatever happened to him? Is he still around, never see the dude post anymore. Well good luck mpas, although you probably wont need it, they like you bro at the rigged shithole. Damn if I'll waste my time on this shit. I get more fuk'in bad beats here, than at Bovada, and that shit hole is rigged too, but at least I can win there occasionally.

[cincinnatikid513]

mike u got no chance making top 24 hope ur from canada

[SharpAngles]

God help the guys trying to rollover 5000 poker points 3x in the abandoned RSH cash games.

[Drydin]

I can only play my 2 days off per week, wish SBR would give you a max amount you can play per week 5 instead of 1 per day. It would be giving people that couldn't play everyday a fair chance , I could just use my 5 per week on my days off.

[mikejamm]

What we should be doing is having weekly and monthly tournaments with 100 to 200 point entry fees with some type of overlay by SBR. And then the top points leaders after 3 months could battle it out in a championship. Fuk this stupid 4 months shit to qualify for peanuts and 24 spots, only to be bubbled out by a bad run in the last 2 weeks. It's a joke, just like this old fuk'in outdate software!

That would be a great improvement/idea....but I’m sure that would break the SBR software.

Tell me about it bro, I love our neighbors to the north, but I'm not moving there.

DS is around, but not as much as he used to be. I see him post from time to time.

So true SA, so true. Try'in to roll 5000 pts on this shit hole joke poker software, that's more vacant than JJ's wallet after a night at the strip club. Bottom 3 teams really take it up the ass!

[blankoblanco]

Autodonk, you seem a little too proud of not being good enough to make team USA. Let me guess -- you're gonna intentionally suck so that you make Confeds again? You're great at that. I believe in you.

Wasn't it bobbywaves who kept claiming that, not AutoDonk? Or maybe it was both of them, each claiming they were tanking to avoid being on a team with the other? Anyway, whichever it was, with the new daily structure might make qualifying a bit different overall, not harder or easier per say but different style.

[no1here]

24 spots for USA with Canada and Europe being automatic
