    Isn't that why we are all here to begin with? We all wager with offshore books, correct?

    Few posters here live in Vegas, and even fewer have good locals.

    If we are going to play with off-shore books, wouldn't it make sense to have a "customer rewards card", which is exactly how I view these SBR points
    .
    ya well your customer rewards card is getting skimmed off the top...

      all they're doing is getting back some bird feed from their losses...like 1% of their losses and SBR keeps the other 19%
      hey nitwit... we are getting something in return for something WE WOULD BE DOING ANYWAY

      You act like we are depositing at sportsbooks to get sbr points. use your head guy

        thats funny...people on here have been betting offshore WAAAAYYYY before SBR did its little point system

        just because they dont wish to give a % of their losses to SBR by letting them tie into their account for life dosent mean they arent making "online deposits"

        Ive seen you post before mic and you're usually pretty sharp but you're way off here
        Here's the thing. Why can't this SBR point system simply be viewes as a Customer Rewards Cards that you get from grocery stores, Starbucks, or gas stations?

        I have been playing at three of top 10 SBR books long before I signed up here-----and if my deposits earn me points here or they give me the chance to win cash from free contests, what exactly is the risk for me?

        There isn't any.

        Period.

          I hear you mikey and that does make sense....However even with 50% bonus (which only comes around a couple of times annually) the juice i save from a local would still eat that bonus money at a traditional book with -110 juice after a couple of weeks, thus im still ahead by simply finding reduced #.... Thanks for the suggestion anyway and GL

            As it is with any CRC.

            Ever taken a single marketing class?

            Do you realize why grocery stores instituted such cards?

            And, I really can't complain about my free shit being skimmed. SBR isn't obligated to give me free shit.

                That is EXACTLY what he is doing.

                He is viewing this from the "Poster X deposited with BetJam to get 12 points daily".

                That isn't what is happening.

                    Precisely,these idiots that keep chirpping about SBR getting 20% of losses are nuts.The losses don't come out of our pocket,yet we get free shit for nothing.For sure there is some nut jobs on these forums.

                          Let me slow this down for you Sparky.

                          You are making 2 assumptions.

                          1. That I lost.

                          2. That I wouldn't have deposited if it weren't for SBR. I have been with my books much longer than I have been with SBR.

                                  SBR is forcing everyone to become a PRO if you want to have the perks here. Always on top of things, SBR is. Now if they would actually do what the site is designed to do & give some of these shit books a bad rating I would be pleased, but those shit books spend money here, so the name needs to be changed from SBR to something that more honestly depicts what we are doing here

                                          No wonder SBR didn't give a flying f... about stiffs screwing over lenders, SBR was planning on slitting the lenders throats themselves.

                                          I for one probably won't go pro, and I've got 5 figures in various accounts including a few SBR sponsors.

                                              I don't need SBR to tell me which books are good or bad. I am capable of researching myself. Everyone knows SBR ratings are paid for.

                                                I for one probably won't go pro, and I've got 5 figures in various accounts including a few SBR sponsors.

                                                  maybe you dont need it, but someone new to the offshore gaming industry googles sportsbook review & low behold, theres a fukin site that not only does that, its their goddamn name!!!

It's illegal to do so in most US States.... The day I become Pro is the day that all 3 of the locals I use stop taking my bets or go out of business. Even still I'll probably be able to find another....

                                                                  But I understand why you would continue to lie about this. A whale such as yourself redeeming free pts won at a free casino for free plays just exposes you as a broke loser.



                                                                  actually, I would have no problem with sbr confiscating all the pts and closing the doors to the free casino. i dont need to win free pts at a free casino to put down bets like some broke loser who does and lies about it. lol

                                                                  closing the free casino would have a huge upside actually: pt roaches like you and thaddeus would no longer post here. everybody wins.
                                                                  1.) lol at me being a broke loser, right now i can cashin for 20k freeplay, what can you do other than complain lolol

                                                                  2.) again you exhibit downs syndrome, YOU'RE THE ONE complaining in this thread, NOT me, they gave us fair warning, they don't like non-pros, what's YOUR problem? you are winner regardless right.

                                                                  3.) lol at sbr confiscating pts, obv you mind b/c you've bitching and groaning this entire thread. yet i have specifically said i could care less, if i cared so much about pts like you do i'd be cashin everything right now and then bitching and moaning like you do.

                                                                  4.) great, 8 months ago before i went on a run i traded in for a betphoenix freeplay, before that i also donated to the haiti rescue fund. what's the problem? does that make me a liar? maybe in your world. hey did you ever piss your bed as a baby? if you say you never piss in your bed now would that make you a liar? i see you don't understand the instrinsic value of something, but it's apparent now you don't understand the concept of time value as well
