    So this is how it ends

    Always thought my gambling career would end at the wsop or betting on the super bowl. Not sbr getting sold and bet points being no more. Say it ain’t so

    Congrats to you if losing betpoints is all it takes to quit gambling. I’m a lifer like it or not. Sometimes flush most the time chasing. No looking back unfortunately.

    It was good while it lasted. 10 great years. We ate ton of free pizzas, bought big screen TVs with giftcards and playstations. We got bitcoin for 4,000 which worth 64,000 now. What else can you ask from SBR? I think I cashed out 200,000 points in 10 years and donated $1,000 to Angelman's website.

    Big Thank You to SBR, employees and John for making this happen. It was a great 10 year run. I learned so much here about sportsgambling. I came here as someone who would lose most of his deposits making square plays and I'm leaving after 15 years as someone who is banned from several books for winning too much. What else can you ask for?

    Salud!

    Perfect time to ban myself after losing back that 30k.

    My first post since then really, but ive been lurking.

    Been here since 2010.

    Cashed in a lot of 5dimes cash. Lots of pizzas. Won hats shirts playing cards from poker when i was into it. Was hoping i would get to go to the wsop instead of fuzzydunlop. Cashed in beat the prick several times. Never made it to cashing out the 10 $1000 v1sa cards before i blew back 43,000 points when i was begging lou shari williebee and samball to expedite the order because i knew id blow it.

    Out of all the mess ive gotten myself into in my life somehow i managed to dodge cheers jon betislands fiasco.

    I did however find myself victim of getting scammed on the puppy bowl.

    Ill miss this place.

    yup, like others have said, its been a great run. i was there for most of it , i shouldnt have taken a break in between a few years there.

    since US is moving to legal betting. its becoming too big now and too much big $ would be competing for rights to this domain. as SBR would be the #1 thing that pops up in any "sports betting" google search.

    Thanks for everything John and company

    Betpoints were always a free ride on SBR. No other forum offered that. Stop crying over points. All good things must come to an end. No other forum offers this. SBR did for years. Just say thank you.

    SBR was always about charity to join and to become an SBR PRO and the betpoints gig was just a side bonus. I LOVED THAT!!!

    SBR was and still is a special sports betting forum!!!

    Yes but it could just be a dif set up
    under whoever is partnered or whatever
    Doubt they will completely take betpoints away

    That's the extra touch that makes SBR worth spending time on
