keep in mind some of us here want LESS records/people knowing when we make deposits
other than that it sounds like a good idea

why would anyone hang out here that didn't gamble??
there are plenty of other chat rooms/forums out there for "non-gamblers"

The plan started evolving with the current poker software development. And we have a new concept coming out in October that will be great. By guaranteeing a SBR poker player has a funded account helps security aspects of our new poker game launching next month. All of the new launches will only be available to SBR Pros. When you see the new launches you will see why. They are unique, crazy fun, expensive investments and it's best to reserve them for serious players.

But do you forsee an increase in the prices for giftcards in the near future?

Hopefully, this will stop some of the worthless power posters who post two words a hundred times a day so that they can get their 25pt milestone every other week.

The milestone was discontinued some time ago.

Yes I do. Store prices will rise somewhat. Some will not. But generally it's yes.

I do think that the 1000 point milestone should still be in effect. Also, milestones like 5000 and 10,000 should be pretty big. That encourages your posters to hang around and contribute.
By hanging around, they will also deposit funds into books

I am a regular at Bet Jamaica and play some at Bet Phoenix so I should be able to get these double points I hope. How do you know that I am a regular at those books though? I think you would need to have some type of info that you would need to be able to give out these double points I would think.

tblues, that is a concern of mine too
it's not just sbr putting contest money into an account - will sbr be calling betjam and saying "how much does milwaukee mike have and what was his last deposit"?
john/lou/etc are great guys but i don't want everyone knowing how much money i'm throwing around
i'm sure it will just be a matter of confirming that there is action lately which still might be tough with privacy rules everywhere?

Double points will start August 7th.
To MMike. I do understand. Some may not join but most will and many we already have acct info on because we have given away so much to their accounts over the years. We have a unique place in this industry with the trust of both the player and the book.

All they need is an acct. number to verify whether or not you are funded or active.How much you have or play is none of their business and if the book you are playing at gives that info,it's time to get out.

Yo, how do you know if we have funded an acct at a sponsor? How do we get into this program?
I have personally cash funded fivedimes and used sbr points to open a BetJamaica acct and a youwager acct. Is this enough?

Question: Does funding these accounts with sportsbook "cash" or "free play" via the SBR store count toward this promotion?
