    Looks to me that you not only can't afford $200 to become pro, but you also cannot afford to use commas and periods for some reason either. By your reasoning, I'm surprised that you also don't think it makes sense- that people actually have to sign up here at SBR to play. I mean there could be so many better players out their that not only refuse to become a pro, but refuse to register here also. LMAO

          Poker

          As a non SBR Pro, I have a question. I have a Bodog account but I have never deposited real money into it. If I should win a satellite to the Grand Final, I would have to deposit real money within 72 hours to avoid forefitting the seat. Correct? Would a deposit into my exisiting Bodog account qualify? If this is acceptable, how would this be verified?

              No, they changed the rules. You have to click on their promo link to create a new account at one of the sportsbooks. Just click on "Become a Pro" under your name and read the rules.

                                    1st place gets you a $10,000 life time opportunity seat which is insanely great. I would not want be 2nd place because you will regret the lost the rest of your life. You either finish 1st or 3rd, finishing 2nd is the worsts feeling trust me.

                                        As big as the blinds are relative to chip stack size late at the final table, you wind pushing hands you wouldn't ordinarily push just to keep from being blinded away.

                                        Finished 3rd on Monday and 2nd yesterday...a lot of luck was involved both days...

That's a pretty good deal. If he doesn't go Pro then there will be one less player in the grand finale. SBR also plans to dispatch Peter and Judie from SBR.TV to Vegas to help cover the event so this is going to be some serious fun.

                                                      Lou,
                                                      Is there a running list of who has qualified?

                                                          Intertops has a decent poker site. I believe it is on the Cake network. But watch out for hidden $20 cashout fees (that they claim to have no control over).
