    I hear you there, I suppose I was really just referring more to my day to day routine.

    It was not a knock on SBR or posters, or at least not meant to be.

    It was more about me excepting the reality if SBR disappeared.

    Are you guys giving free play for trivia? Just wondering. Was going to put it on the World Series with the rest of my free play I have saved up but I don’t see that it was added. Honestly don’t even know who I would ask right now, but seems to be the main thread for transition questions.

    I won 3 times in a row and the trivia freeplays haven't been issued. A mod replied that this is a software issue as these are automatically issued. A lot of stuff broke the last few weeks. I hope the coffee machine in the break room still works.

    I think it sucks.

    All offshore info has been pushed to the side. Their "deals" section consists of affiliate links to US books that have the same bonus offers you can get without them. There's no points, no free contests, no offshore dispute mediation, no offshore odds, no analytics and very little in the way of substantial discussion about books or why a play might be +EV.

    SBR isn't/wasn't perfect, but imo it's way better than what's over there.

    It is definitely less than I thought it would be which means this will be less than it seems to be. But definitely weird.

    BMR and theRx look to be on the same software with both trying to emulate SBR

    theRx is extremely tough on the eyes

    wondering if they're all owned by the same group now

    They had to do something. Having a non-mobile compatible site in this day and age is just straight up embarrassing.

    Last info I got was that freeplays had been paid.

    Can you please PM SBR Forum and ask if yours was missed?

    I was wondering if the trivia banner was not showing up on mobile. Now it’s obvious I didn’t receive my badge for winning trivia on Thursday. Good point bringing it up. No need in playing trivia if you won’t get the 175 pt freeplay badge.

    That is what this one is going to look like too. All the sites are going to phone centric sites. They design these things to work on phones and have a lot of color because the developers like a lot of flash.

    Trivia free plays have not been paid. I have 3 badges from last 3 times I played and I see nothing credited in the book.

    SBR always changes. The real SBR was back in 2005. With Dozer and Ganch. The place was loaded with sharps. Later came the bet points. Different crowd.

    I don't know if they listened to 'somebody's' idea of turning the old sportsbook review into a supermarket for books, but they sure did.

    With the US now legal, I'm taking wagers on Tony returning from the dead. Starting tomorrow night.

    Likewise, the trivia free plays I won 5 and 9 days ago haven't been paid.

    Apparently whomever is taking care of crediting points of any kind has not gotten the hang of it.They gave week 7 contest winnings to us and then took them away.Now it appears they are dumping the points to somebody who never earned any.


    ReplyNatty68 (19 hours ago)
    I had an influx of unearned betpoints credited to my account for second time



    It would be nice if there was some contact person here that would respond to questions

    Bitcoin winnings not being paid either. I have not been paid for my 2nd place overall winner in the MLB 10 Runs Contest. This contest and the Pick 6 were started way before all the so called “changes” to the site.

    Hoping SBR will do the right thing here and honor its obligations to the SBR Pros who put in the time and legitimately won prizes as stated in the rules of these contests.

    Are things really so bad they can't pay $50 or $100 winnings and 100 point free plays? Should be plenty of funds reserved to pay contests.

    I wouldn't worry too much about contest winnings. They do seem to be using different systems and the people doing this stuff seem to have no idea what they are doing. You have LT Profits grading stuff manually. There are some major transitions issues going on.
