    But check it out, last night I came home pretty tipsy and -- this is 100% true -- thought I was playing a 125-point hand with 5 green chips, only to realize after I clicked "deal" that I was playing a 500-point hand with 5 red chips! Somehow, by some miracle, the software did not bend me over and actually LET ME WIN that hand!!!! That got me to the 2,093.
    wow, i need to hit the casino more often apparently.

      All but 2 are 5X, one is 7X and BetPhoenix is 8X. I would rather 5X but its not that big of a deal anyway in one way. Put it on at the start of a season and just play. If you play a full season of NBA and still have money left at the end of the year your rollover would have been done long ago. Plus the cash with them is cheaper then all of the others so you could buy $300 and still have about 200 points left over.

      So I guess it just depends on how you play or how bad you could use the money. If you could really use the money I would go with a 5X rollover. If it didn't matter I might go for the 8X and get the larger amount of cash to play with.

        Yes in the SBR Store. Look in the blue bar at the top of the page, 6 from the left.

          Keep gaining until the deadline of Feb.15th. That's when prices increase 8%. So buy something good on Feb. 14th. Just don't lose it all in the casino.

                If we can get pizzas delivered, how about an arrangement with an escort service.

                I know it would take a lot of points, just a thought.

                          Good advice, onlooker, thanks for the heads-up.

                          Yeah, I think my lines go something like this:

                          Loses it all back in the casino: -105
                          Gets a pizza or two, otherwise loses it all back in the casino: -120
                          Gets a pizza or two, some sportsbook cash that he loses before rollover #3, and a $50 gift card: +135
                          Keeps on winning and eventually purchases something sweet like a TV or laptop: +750

                                  Keep doubling up until you have enough for the Segway. Walking to and from places is for chumps!

                                    The smart bet/value bet is definitely that -105 above ^^. Just went down to 1,261 in the span of about 3 minutes in the casino this morning.

                                    You see, for some masochistic reason, I like to test that it's rigged. So I'm playing blackjack, win one lose one type of thing, then I go up to 100-point hands, and lose 7 out of 8. It's like clockwork. Same thing happened in Pai Gow Poker. It's even easier to see the fix in there, because when I dropped five huge hands in a row, there weren't even any ties in between -- just loss loss loss loss loss!

                                      Capy. If you can't keep out of the casino, then get something worth while now. Please down go bust from the casino.
