    It would be cool if we had an SBR poker tournament

    Do you need a license for that to do it online

    Have one of the big books sponsor it and provide the software. It would be great promotion for both sides

    You would think with the shift in this place, they would be able to send someone to the world series or something. I seem to remember them doing that before anyways. Think it was Cabo if I have his name correct.

    Last I asked I was told poker is not in the vision for SBR.

    But will keep bringing it up where I can and hope that changes one day.

    What happened to the old software? I mean they don't have give us daily freebies, how about give us just weekend tourneys we have to buyin with our own points? I am sure lot of posters would play that while watching football.

    Love Opti….but there isn’t much vision at SBR.

    They couldn’t see past one week of running the store before they shut down.

    Why not open poker up….ALL these points are worthless anyway. Just play for fun.

    easy to see why no poker, the old software wasn't working and why would they invest money into new poker software it's bare bones minimum around here

    Not sure if OP even realizes it but we did have Poker at one time. But it's not really their focus right now. They even had fundraider tourneys for Cure Angelman.

    Poker should be back any day. The new owners told us it was very important to them to get poker going again.

    Did they?

    I have heard them say the opposite since soon after buyout.

    No need to make up stuff Pablo. Genuine shade to throw if you want.

    Message Me



    I was told yesterday that we have an new person to manage the store and poker.

    Have not spoken to him but the fact we have a person responsible for poker now means it WILL be coming back for sure at least.












    There were a few other messages just like this. I don't blame you Opti. You have done great things for a lot of us here and you are just doing your job while trying to be optimistic. Cheers

    I was still assuming then and had not been told anything, as I said in that post.

    But the only actual word I have ever gotten was that "poker is not in their vision for SBR" and I have have repeated that on here a few times.

    Same answer as came down for the casino.

    Not sure exactly why and still think both should remain personally too.

    If we have learned anything over the past year, it is that they don't care.

    You have a better chance at winning The Powerball Jackpot than ever getting Poker back.
