    Why would someone who is not a SBRPRO even bother to post at SBR?
    I am talking about someone who has been here for at a month anyway.



    We are all gamblers. You are at a gambling forum! WHY ON EARTH would someone not post up at books and gamble if you are on this site? Just seem idiotic to be on posting on a site if you dont gamble.


    Would you post at a golfing forum if you dont play golf? Of course you wouldnt

          One thing is for sure. If these guys post on the internet as much as they do and are NOT PROS, then they ALSO dont have a local either.


          Now you can have BOTH and post here, but you ABSOLUTELY would not solely bet with a local and post here


          Internet books offer better lines and -105 too and sometimes lower

                Because some people need friends.
                So they come to internet forums.
                Pretty simple.

                      1) I have funds in three books that pay for advertising here before I even started posting on these boards.
                      I don't need any more books.

                      2) This isn't a private country club, when I joined to post here I didn't see any conditions 'before you can commence posting, you must pony up 200 bucks to one of our sponsors.'

                      3) Lose some weight you fat pig, your arteries must be clogged from all those bacon and egg sandwiches and jelly donuts you suck down.

                      4) Don't you have any Elvis chips to try to pawn off on someone?

                      5) Don't you have any more animals do leave to die?

                      6) Worry about yourself butt munch, it's really none of your concern who is pro, and who isn't.

                      7) That's all for now.

                        But I think his point is,
                        Why come here daily and avoid Pro Status?

                        If you are going to post at least once a day, might as well get 14 points.
                        Nothing wrong with getting $250 free plays or $500 cash one day.
                        Seems like a big waste not to.

                              I'd like to become a pro, but then I would have to make a deposit at a book I can't even use. I bet on boxing/mma and 5dimes (which I already use) is hands down the best book for those 2 sports. To become a pro I would have to deposit 2 bills into a book like The Greek or some other book that isn't good for combat sports.

                                    I am a loser in real life so I come to a gambling forum to make friends
                                    I do not have $200 to my name and I live in basement with mom and stuffed animals

                                    I wish people would just accept me for who I am.

                                        Have multiple offshore accounts through a proxy and don't see the need to have personal info all over the place. Access to casino books where I can collect when I want without hassle is a plus for living in Vegas. Sometimes I may not get the best price, but having had to pressure some offshores to pay in the past I can live with the extra vig risk every now and then. Free plays and rollovers are fine for some, but to me they are the equivalent of bounce back cash a brick and mortar casino gives out. They give it because they know 99.9% of the players they give it to are going to lose it 10 fold within 4 months.

                                                    well for new members i can understand because it is a bit harder to become a pro if you already have funds at the books

                                                      I was here way before the point scheme came into effect,when capping and entertainment went hand in hand,now it's more of a childrens sandbox, with posters kicking sand all over each other and hateing on each other daily.

                                                      Anyways back to why i would post here if i'm a non pro...i'm looking to order a thousand or so SBR barreled in tee shirts then hit the flea market, plus i like using my points to play poker.

                                                          We are all gamblers. You are at a gambling forum! WHY ON EARTH would someone not post up at books and gamble if you are on this site? Just seem idiotic to be on posting on a site if you dont gamble.


                                                          Would you post at a golfing forum if you dont play golf? Of course you wouldnt

                                                          you are actually making the case for non pros, why would someone post here if they are not actually gambling? so you just answered you're own question, non pros do gamble and many dont apply to become pro for many reasons

                                                            What the **** is the point of becoming Pro? To get extra points?

                                                            Sorry... I like to gamble with money, not points.

                                                              Most non pros are either broke or a ghost.

                                                                you get higher limits, credit, and easier process with a local thats why.

                                                                i posted up so i could be in some contest, but generrally for me locals are much easier

Your biggest gamble is depositing overseas and having to jump through hoops once your account is fat...bodog has bounced, sportsbook has bounced and every poker site under the sun....
