They accept US customers. Got it right in a live chat tonight:
Travis: Yes we do accept US clients, as we currently have very many US clients on the site.

mikejamm · 06-03-10, 06:34 AM

Well SportsInteraction wouldn't let me sign up! Something about the gambling laws in the great hillbilly commonwealth of Kentucky state! Total BS! I guess Ky doesn't want anybody betting on anything except their damn horse racing! This sucks because I wanted to participate, but because of where I live, I'm on the outs! I think contests should be available to everybody and should be taken into consideration before a sports book sponsor is chosen.

LOL that's just some hours after i made my account with them. I find this total BS, i haven't made a single bet. Now my account is blocked i can't even enter.
Do you have this problem as well? That's the first book ever to ask me for ID and proof of address in order to just enter my account!

Hey guys - I am going to start grading the completed groups.

I will make a couple of threads with the picks to make for the Round of 16. Probably will get one up today for the matchups already decided, and then another one up in a couple of days for the remaining 4 matches. Stay tuned.

Reload · 06-24-10, 09:30 AM

The first two threads are up for the Round of 16. You can find them here:

http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicapping-contests/

Two more will be coming shortly after the remaining matchups are determined.

bozeman · 06-24-10, 10:12 AM

The points we get from each win are sbr-points or just points within the contest?

bozeman · 06-24-10, 10:27 AM

and one more question - shall we be able to see the leaders from prelim round, if that's a lot of work for you don't bother, but maybe you have it counted somewhere, just curious to see

Just points within the contest. Have to keep score somehow.

The prelim round results should be graded by the end of the weekend. If not, they will be graded along with the Round of 16 as that concludes. So sometime in the next few days, we will know how everyone stands heading into the later rounds.
