Pro renwals running at 71%...(pounding the desk) Support SBR! That number is too low!

[jackpot269]

Hi jackpot, The renewal reminders are sent automatically --- I understand that you had an issue with the first application, apologies, when sportsbooks tell us that there was not a recent $200+ balance we have to trust their word and decline those applications. Though we've not yet heard back from the sponsor that you have an app pending with, I've went ahead and updated your status

Thanks Lou and John hope that y'all have a great Bash this year!! wish I could make it this year but could not work it out planning on being there next year and coming in real early and leaving real late !!!!!!

[playersonly69]

Walker,


Can I have 250 bonus points since I was one of the first posters to actually renew??


Or can I have 250 bonus points if I send another $500 to another book tomorrow?

[tkim8404]

I'll be renewing tomorrow John thanks for the heads up.

[Nittany Lion]

I'm not up for renewal until Feb 3rd 2012 which kind of sucks since I only bet football and wanted to create a 5Dimes account for this season. No point in me creating a new account in Feb. when football is over except for the Superbowl.

I wish I could create an account and deposit at 5Dimes, and extend my pro membership 1 year from Feb 3rd thus making my pro status expire on Feb 3rd 2013.

It seems silly why SBR doesn't allow this, they should just do it so that for every sportsbook on the SBR pro list that you deposit $200 at, it extends your pro membership 1 year. So if I deposit $200 each at lets say 5Dimes/Bookmaker/Bodog for a total of $600 then my SBR pro membership is good for 3 years.

[yisman]

Not sure what the rules are regarding how recent the deposit must be.

But go ahead and sign up for 5 Dimes using the SBR link now. No reason to wait.

If I sign up now it won't renew my pro status, so no reason too when I already have money at Bodog.

[yisman]

But as long as you signed up through the SBR link, it's fine. So if you sign up now and deposit in January (I think even earlier than January), you'd be eligible to continue being an SBR Pro that way. Sign up doesn't have to be immediately before deposit.

Like I said, there's no reason not to sign up now.

[SBR Lou]

While yisman is correct that signing up via the sponsor link is half the process, the sportsbooks want to reward new customers. A guy coming in via an SBR contest might have used the same link, but if his first deposit is X months later, they may not wish to accommodate. If there are any doubts on the Pro process, connect to Live Help and we'll be happy to assist.

[yisman]

Lou, how recent does the deposit have to be in order to renew as pro? I think that's the real question here.

Regarding the accounts, it's been posted before that it didn't matter when they were created as long as it was through SBR.

SBR John posted awhile back that as long as we had joined through an SBR link, made a $200.00 deposit and maintained the balance or grown above we would be eligible to maintain our status upon renewal. Unless it's changed again but who knows?

You are right,I didn't have to deposit 50 cents to renew.As long as there is at least 200 in the original book you signed up with,that's all that matters.

[yisman]

market, I renewed that way as well (DSI last year for Pro and BTP). I was asking for those making deposits to renew for whatever reason.

I wonder what the #1 reason would be?

[obamaismyuncle]

1,000's of "PROS" and 1,000's of posts about "PROS" from the SBR admins and people are still asking the same questions...anyone else find all this really funny??? Seems to also be 1,000's of different answers...seems nobody really knows the right answers to becoming "PRO" or renewing your "PRO" app..

[aceking]

next year lets all wait for the special promo before renewing .

[bachngocduong]

Pro Handicapper Subscription? What is that?

[BigDaddy]

Pro Handicapper Subscription? What is that?

hopefully they will have me listed in the next day or two...

I know you're a big fan of mine...

[yisman]

Pro Handicapper Subscription? What is that?

a subscription to one of the many tout services out there. Not sure which ones are included.

[SpreadSniper]

unreal - just spoke with Lou via Live Chat.... was informed that all I need to do is donate $200 to the "Dr's Without Borders" charity to become an SBR PRO.... not that I particularly care, but I don't want to be the only one with the "Become an SBR Pro" stigma attached to my handle.

My whole problem with the SBR pro system was that I didn't enjoy the idea of some behind the scenes dealings involving my losses....

In order to ensure this is the case I even asked that my payment be delivered via my spouses CC - just to ensure none of my information is released to whomever - not a problem Lou says.

EDIT - You can even donate the 200 via prepaid CC if you would like to ensure all your personal information is kept private. Will post up the 200 donation next time I pass Walmart, or wherever you buy those prepaid CC's.

This was a great idea! Not only do I not have to give up any of my personal information to SBR, but they are going to compensate me for being a good guy - allbeit at a fraction of what I am giving up, but who cares... haven't donated to a charity in a while...

Now I expect SBR Management to be on the horn with Domino's Canada brokering some sort of deal whereby us good hearted Canadians can too enjoy some hard earned Zaaaaa.

Why is a fraction of what you're giving up?

[BigDaddy]

thanks Lou

[bobbyk1133]

My pro renewal doesn't come up until November..so the earliest I can renew is October.

Would be great if they allowed us to renew early.

[ireland1946]

Thank you to all those that have renewed their Pro status.

There are a lot of fun things happening here. We need your support. Renewals are critical part of SBR. We are counting on you guys. Thank you.

Renewed my SBR PRO membership today John, used my Original
Sportsbook, hope to get my 250 Points that you promised in your
Thread about " Promotion " if you renew by 11.59 pm Friday of this week

[Draftstreet.com]

Hey guys - I'll make a thread about this but just wanted to announce for certain that Draftstreet WILL be an option in the SBR Pro Program.

We were approved by legal for this today so we had to wait to announce this, and there was some miscommunication, but we are very excited to be a part of this and hope this option helps some folks Go Pro.

Thanks,
Draftstreet.com Team

[Poker_Beast]

Renewed, needed the points after I hit the casino last night

[tofuman]

how are we supposed to renew pro status when we already have an acct at so many books?

[obamaismyuncle]

funny how 3 of the top posters on this site,,,jjgold, brocklanders and flyingillini never renewed their pro status

[TMoney33]

My main problem is the general uncertainty in the online gaming industry. I have already lost access to too many sites for me to feel comfortable having much (if any) money online right now.

[obamaismyuncle]

well the rates will continue to get lower cause either someone is a real gambler and could care less about 12 points a day or they're broke and don't have the $200..
