      how'd he scam? was this way back from the point funneling thing? I suppose you won't want to share though if you haven't fixed whatever problem existed that he took advantage of.........which is understandable

        You are correct. I was far too harsh in my original post and I admitted to that in another post a few above yours where I quoted your reason for the rake fee.


        If the no choice is either rake or much higher prices, then I will take the rake

            it can't be a simple pts funneling issue, 50k pts is far more than you can funnel unless you use 100+ ghosts per day.

            i wish grumperz and/or sbr would clearly state the case, instead of each side just post partial side of the story and we're left to judge based on incomplete information.

              I don't even remember that well. I think he exploited a glitch and transferred points and bet them and as I recall claimed the bets he won off the "borrowed" points he thought he should keep and just return the borrowed points. Like I said, not very smart ploy by a kid that figured if he screamed loud enough he would get something. Somewhere along the line we told to stop wasting our time. He must of forgot.

                i just went through grumps point history and i dont see anything that would show he scammed points

                nobody ever sent him any points

                he sent points to a poster nasdog but that was late in his transactions and i dont see the big deal about that.

                it seems he earned those points in the casino/book somehow

                    are those his ghosts?

                          Apparently GRUMPERZ is now banned from SBR. Was it a conspiracy? Is there now a cover-up? We shall never know.

                            this was a shit ton of points (about 7000) and in random threads for no obvious reason.

                              He gave Nasdog 6947 points. 3947 of them all on one day, June 5th.

                                  yes i know but it was late in his history and he must have earned the points to give somehow


                                  if he did earn them in a legit way who cares what he gives away?

                                  that would be like trixtrix now giving some of his points away

                                  he earned them fair and square so.

                                  its not like his history showed different people everyday giving him 6 points a day

                                      just seems weird because there is no communication in the threads and nasdog has almost no posts yet he's getting shipped tons of points in each post. doesn't mean he's guilty but it's definitely fishy.

                                        true but how did he earn the points to give away

                                        that is the question.

                                                So I can get back the points you guys stole from me? It's ok for Trix to do it, but you stole all mine???

                                                  the post above leads me to believe that he might have been pounding them on CP's as well

                                                  at one time i noticed they took boise -47 ov 52 parlays

                                                  this was at the start of ncaaf season

                                                  and the talk about justin also calling him a hypocrite

                                                  if he was i see no reason for points to be taken away

                                                  A books pay the player and either limit or boot them they dont steal from them.

                                                  this is all speculation though.

                                                  i have no facts to back this up just my thoughts on what i have seen

                                                    You do not need to be psychic to know if someone is banned. There are ways to check

                                                      I would if I knew what happened. I don't know how he earned the points or why they were taken away. SBR_John doesn't even remember what happened. Apparently the only person who really knows is now banned.

                                                        Wow! This bad ass thread is up to 13 pages! You've got to applaud SBR for crack'in down on the scammers! Screw those assholes, all they want is something for nothing and use up time, forum space, and SBR's resources trying to cheat the system! If they applied that same skill, (be what little idiot stupid skill it is), to learning how to cap games, they might actually get somewhere.

                                                            Justin7 is a stand up guy if he said grumperz scammed I believe him. He is for the players. States in his book the sportsbooks are evil. Which I agree. Have you ever read blackies posts or any other sportsbook owner? Makes you want to take every single penny from them. Wannabe thugs.

                                                                i don't think sbr would be willing to screw over big winners, but obv if they truly cheated you then they would cheat me as well at some pt.
