      If the point system was still the same since it debuted I would be but with quarterly year inflation its not even worth it to waste my time.

          I have off shore accounts SBR knows nothing about. They could be considered private accounts. So to become a pro all that's needed is $200 with one outfit. I don't see the need to shelter all of the accounts. All I want is to get paid when I win. SBR can be an ally when it comes to that.

            People have their reasons. Some are broke and some play with locals. What I don't like is that people who aren't pros complain when changes like what are coming up happen. Yes, in a perfect world the changes wouldn't have to happen, but the world isn't perfect and there will be people defrauding the system. If you don't like it, go pro or just forget about some of the benefits and just enjoy the community that you came here for.

              2. revert back to #1

              3. wrong ass clown. how does john get my bank account number when 5dimes doesn't even have it? sbr knows more about me from ordering a pizza then they do from becoming a pro

                I dont trade/bet purely in my own name and for probably 8 or 9 out of 10 bets I place the sponsor books' limits and lines are crap, plain and simple.

                If there were to come a time when a sponsor has 'proper' soccer markets and four figure line limits I might change my tune but I don't see that happening anytime soon unless John starts brushing up on a few Asian languages.

                  whipet saying its illegal in his country is a very valid reason. his jackazz statement is not. ok. ur curious to know why not.

                  2ndly. i live in vegas. my payouts are instantaneously. plus all casinos are run under nevada law and regulated by the nevada gaming commission

                  u know guys with guns and badges. and a bunch of suits and ties.

                  i don't have to worry about the laws of the island of malta or bermuda where i would have to send my $. nor are a bunch of indians checking out the casino to make sure they are not tweeking the software when u play blackjack. not to be rude.

                  but trust is a important factor where my money goes. and for sure i trust the machines at the next door casino. i do not trust the machines at the local gas station or seven eleven convience store.


                  TRUST

                    and also a point in fact. i think SBG Global is a book/casino sponsored on this site. i will never play blackjack there.

                    completely untrustworthy.

                    if u doubt. deposit 200 bux as a sbr pro and go hit their black jack tables. use basic single deck charts or multi deck charts. when u play. this only gives the casino a 1-2% edge. i.e 52 wins to SBGGGlobal 48 wins to you. LOL

                    i promise you ur 200 bux will be gone in no time flat.

                    -$

                    i'm getting ready to go nextdoor and play blackjack rite now. i win 98% of the time there due to me having a finance/accounting degrees from oklahoma state university. and 5+ years of studying and playing blackjack on a daily basis.

                    i know all sorts of professional blackjack tricks to make positive money and CASINO points at the casino i play at.

                    they give u $1 for every 400 pointts. earned. u have to bet through 800 bux = 400 points = $1. this dollar has to be played through. but you keep what you win from the buk plus the buck. or u can buy items in their gift shop.

                    today, if you win 199 base points. wager through about 16000 bux you get a free buffet. this can be done easily enough if u wager correctly and at the right amount due to payback %. you also get to keep ur points.

                    also this month in december on mondays all day you get 5x points.

                    ok. there are other options in life depending on where you are at. but offshore books do not really excite me much.

                    kind of like a dead fish served on a cold plate. one eye staring looking up at you. a little gilley.

                    LOL


                    giving sbr store credit for having some kickass gifts. but if you play poker online you can buy the same kickazz items for a lot cheaper price and if ur good at poker a lot ezier. also most sites like carbon poker or cake. let you play in freerolls for points. or pay ur points as a buyin. carbon poker has a 82 inch televison for 382,000 points.

                    they have buyins. ranging from 100 p$t$s$ to 600 points sit n gos. where if ur good. you can win 1000pts or 2000pts a day ezily enuf.

                    ok bud.

                    TRUST.

                    i do trust the big offshore poker sites. cuz they don't lose money to bettors. they rake the tables. + situation for them and they do payout.

                    also SBR poker mite be worth going pro for. cuz they don't charge you 20 pts for their freerolls/ so it mite be good enuff there. but i've got freerolls out the ying yang anyway. if you want that. all the sites have them. some more valuble then others.

                    but the sbr poker does have some good prizes but you will have to wager out ur wins at a 4x win or higher to profit from that won at a sbr freeroll. so LOL.

                          if there ever becomes a real advantage other than getting more "buttons" per day maybe then it would be considered... if you don't care about SBR points, whats the real incentive? Im paranoid enough as it is without knowing information sharing is going on....

                                          they give u $1 for every 400 pointts. earned. u have to bet through 800 bux = 400 points = $1. this dollar has to be played through. but you keep what you win from the buk plus the buck. or u can buy items in their gift shop.

                                          today, if you win 199 base points. wager through about 16000 bux you get a free buffet. this can be done easily enough if u wager correctly and at the right amount due to payback %. you also get to keep ur points.

                                          also this month in december on mondays all day you get 5x points.

                                          ok. there are other options in life depending on where you are at. but offshore books do not really excite me much.

                                          kind of like a dead fish served on a cold plate. one eye staring looking up at you. a little gilley.

                                          LOL


                                          giving sbr store credit for having some kickass gifts. but if you play poker online you can buy the same kickazz items for a lot cheaper price and if ur good at poker a lot ezier. also most sites like carbon poker or cake. let you play in freerolls for points. or pay ur points as a buyin. carbon poker has a 82 inch televison for 382,000 points.

                                          they have buyins. ranging from 100 p$t$s$ to 600 points sit n gos. where if ur good. you can win 1000pts or 2000pts a day ezily enuf.

                                          ok bud.

                                          TRUST.

                                          i do trust the big offshore poker sites. cuz they don't lose money to bettors. they rake the tables. + situation for them and they do payout.

                                          also SBR poker mite be worth going pro for. cuz they don't charge you 20 pts for their freerolls/ so it mite be good enuff there. but i've got freerolls out the ying yang anyway. if you want that. all the sites have them. some more valuble then others.

                                          but the sbr poker does have some good prizes but you will have to wager out ur wins at a 4x win or higher to profit from that won at a sbr freeroll. so LOL.

                                            The way I see it, it's all about business. The second you decide to gamble, whether it's locally, offshore, with sbr points, whatever... you have decided you are going to participate on some level in business transactions involving thr sports betting industry. Once this decision has been made, it doesn't matter if your a Pro or not, whether you safeguard yourself more than someone else or not... it matters that if or when something does go wrong, you are PREPARED to fix it. If you honestly can't say to yourself that you can fix the worst case scenario... your setting yourself up to be fukd.

                                              Even if I lose all my bets this weekend (more than 50% of my roll), I'd still qualify as a pro. I just don't know enough to see any benefit to becoming a pro.

                                              Once I spend the time to figure out this whole point thing, then maybe I'll go pro.

                                              I'm not here for the freebies. I'm here to just see what and how people are betting. Maybe ride the coattails of a real sharp.

                                              And also to kill some time and run my mouth off on various subjects.

                                                As for me ..I use 2 locals and meet up with them every week.I have a $2500 credit limit with one and $1000 with the other.
                                                I look at it this way.Lets say you deposit 2 dimes into a book and win 2 dimes the 1st week.Your 1st payout are you going to ask for the $4000? or are you going to ask for a 2k payout,which is only your post up money back.
                                                If you have control..Credit the way to go!

                                                  Just when I thought I'd heard them all.... Beaner says dont turn Pro because you may want to stiff a bookie. LOL

                                                  I dont mind guys like Beaner not turning Pro. They can have any reasoning its ok. Everyone is welcome to come in and talk about the games and the books or whatever. If you are a real player and a dedicated SBRer then SBR is going to give you an entertainment experience that no other web site on the net offers. If you are not you can still have a great time hanging out.
