        and i'm sure 1 pt is not 12 cents and it's much more.. so basically, 1,000$/yr just to post at least once a day at sbr.

        not bad huh?? it all adds up.. don't look at it as 8 cents. look at it as 1k/yr.. which pays quite a few bills, or a nice vacation on sbr, just for being here.
        makes no sense, Nicky. You were always one of the crusaders about how points meant so little.

        "Boys, they're just points."

        Now lately you've been singing a different tune.

        and i'm sure 1 pt is not 12 cents and it's much more.. so basically, 1,000$/yr just to post at least once a day at sbr.
        A point is not worth much more than 12 cents. 8 cents is actually close to the fair value.

            before i know it, i'll have 5,000 pts within 4 months. no need to gamble to build it up. it goes very fast.
            really good point, i always try to bet to build em up but i feel like just saving is priobably thefastest way

              i went on a good run for 3 days & went from 400 to 1100, had 200 to win 650 if VT had won through teasers & such, but didnt happen, so was back down to 980 & just made a power purchase in the store for 780 so back down to about 150. Will try to build back up to 1000 through the playoffs & maybe bet them all on the superbowl

                I think its just fun to bet them on shit you really wouldnt put a lot of money on, find something you want in the store within reason & bet your points to buy it. Takes the gambling edge off when you dont want to bet real money, thats all

                      A POINT is worth a MINIMUM 10 cents............MINIMUM.

                      If I could buy a point for a mere 8 cents, would purchase a boatload.

                            yes - you should get pop up if you are pro.

                            you should let a mod know about this . you're missing all the fun and points. maybe check your settings, etc.

                                For someone who really doesn't care about points, NDI certainly makes enough posts about them.

                                        I spend over $100k with a vendor buying food every year... the sbr points system has a better rewards program than my vendor does.

                                                  The thing with sports cash and Freeplays is they require a rollover , where the giftcards do not its straight cash so
                                                  not sure how you can determine a cash value for the points if you buy a cash or freeplay from a book since you need to risk again a certain amount of times before you can withdraw it.

                                                  If you do buy all or some giftcards trixtrix just remember do so before I think Feb. 15th that's when store prices go up and price per point value will even be less then 5.5 cents at that time

                                                    Be pretty nice to have a $5,000 target or walmart giftcard, we all need to shop these places for the general things it takes to get through life why not have SBR buy them for you.
