Paver, please teach me to manage my points better so I can make a "first" purchase in the sbr store before the end of the year.

I'm guessing I've lost 15,000 pts.

Nice, I only have 10415 store purchases.

It is well worth it, I've enjoyed losing the additional points I've earned in the SBR Casino.

What? I played that hand until show down. It wasn't given to me because I was at the table when it happened. I was actually the one who had the Royal Flush.

I just wish that if you stayed funded at 5dimes year round, they would renew your status. I don't like being forced into posting up at new books....

They will renew it then

I was denied pro membership---i had accounts at all books---only one i had not funded was justbet, sent them $200. and told big jim i wanted in sbr pro program---he said NO PROBLEM. Lou denied me because i had opened account earlier through another link---then justbet gave me some run around bullshit.-----i would have much rather sent the $200. to my main book 5ds.

I finally gave in!

itchypickle · 08-26-11, 04:19 PM

I took the leap this afternoon. Just in time for football. Reading the confirmation of application message saying "see you in the Big Leagues soon" made me almost tear up! Almost

CanuckG · 08-26-11, 04:30 PM

Still on my first year just about 3,000 worth

your soul is on the auction block as we speak

pavyracer · 08-26-11, 06:44 PM

Nice job guys with the cash outs. It just shows you that Average Joes like us can cash out 5,000 to 30,000 points easily.

milwaukee mike · 08-26-11, 06:49 PM

i'm somewhere in that neighborhood too pavy.

but keep in mind that the benefits of being pro become less and less every day. points were worth about .10 when you could use them at sportsbooks for u.s. residents, now they're worth about .05

so that ONE change makes points worth 1/2 as much as they were a year ago.

onlooker · 08-26-11, 06:52 PM

SBRpro is definitely worth it.

rm18 · 08-26-11, 06:52 PM

I still think the points are better now than a year ago even though they were worth more they were hard to get, either had to crack a parlay or just wait a while for them to add up, now you can win a freeroll or contest or trivia and come up off of nothing real quick.

gryfyn1 · 08-26-11, 07:03 PM

not as much as some but cashed out a decent amount over the last year...

I'm about to have almost a year with my Pro membership and this is a screen shot of my point transactions from the store. As you can see I was able to cash out more than 15,000 points in one year from the store. These points were earned from daily log in and posting points, trivia, sportsbook, contests, poker etc. I was already funded at my book so it didn't cost me a penny to become a Pro. I'm not sure how much 15,000 points worth but you can't find any other loyalty program in the world that offers these benefits for practically doing nothing but having fun!

So go ahead and become Pros and take advantage of the benefits.

P.S. When SBR_John sees this he would probably have his blood pressure rise.
