    Guys, unfortunately SBR does not owe us an explanation, we dont really matter to them

    Guy, SBR does not owe us an explanation. The forum and sportsbook landscape has changed over the past 12 months. Most of the posters around here who DO BET, are not playing offshore anymore. Most of us have USA based sportsbooks within a few hours or you can use draftkings or Fandual.

    The forum as it stands right now is really a losing proposition. SBR wouldnt make really money from the current posters. I mean no one really needs a "review site" about USA sportsbooks. The "new owners" really dont need any of us, what they really want are NEW posters and the NEW people who are just starting to gamble on sports online and at US based sportsbooks like Caesar.

    Believe it or not, even 5 years ago only about 5% or so of gamblers had ever even heard of a Gambling Forum. And now we would make it up less than 1% with all of the new people jumping onboard with the new USA options.

    I would imagine that the forum could stay around, but they really dont need us. They need that new clientele that just started gambling online at Draftkings for instance. Or they wouldnt mind getting members who start gambling at the new casinos in Louisiana for instance that never actually made bets offshore.

    The current posters at this site doesnt dont offer very much of a profit incentive. I had always wondered over the past few years how this forum made any money at all to be honest.


    It was a good run and fun to post at sites such as this, but this sort of thing is pretty much over now. I will listen to VSIN radio everyday and Sportsgrid radio though. Those are actually great shows to listen to about handicapping. Maybe SBR should advertise with them and they could get a lot of new posters who have never posted on a gambling forum.

    OUT WITH OLD....IN WITH THE NEW...

    Always here to help! Not sure that we needed your picks in the main forum either though.

    If we dont have threads like this then we dont have anything to look at

    There are many states that don't have US books. My only out is offshore. Why can't they both co-exist at SBR?

    You need to tender to all the clientele. Starbucks does not discriminate on the customers. A guy from Curacao can buy the same coffee like a guy from Camden, NJ. No need to divide your customers into US based and offshore. This is a very bad business decision.

    I will agree, but this forum is a real losing proposition as it stands now. They are just changing things around now because at the end of the football season not as many newbies will around until next year. If you have noticed, the NBA really isnt allowing sportsbook advertising near as much.

    This website URL can be worth a lot of money in the future, but not as it currently is constructed

    Shh...we're not allowed to talk about offshore anymore. The onshore woke agenda has spoken.

    Licensing an issue

    Promoting offshore books with a USA license is real bad business

    Why does SBR need a USA license? They are not a sportsbook. Explain.

    It was JJ Walker

    I immediately thought of props on whether he'd say "dynomite!"

    It's just how I think sometimes...lol.

    Of course he said it.

    -5000 on over .5 cashed but those greedy bettors looking for -2000 on the over 1.5 got burned.

    If you notice in his background pictures while he’s talking, one of the pictures has him wearing a t-shirt or a sign that says it. 😂😂😂
