    How important are your points in your daily life and why?
    I guess on a scale of 1 to 10... 1 being very important and 10 being not important at all.

    I value my points at about a 3 I'd say. They are a big part of my daily life as is SBR. I don't really care about the monetary value, but that is definitely the underlying gravitational pull as to why I enjoy them. After being pro for a year plus I still have yet to buy anything from the store so I am going to try and do that this year.

    I also love playing poker with them. I'd say without poker I'd value them at about a 5 because I am often times to lazy to use them in the sportsbook and have blown a shytload in the casino.

    All in all points are vital to my daily existance under my current routine ... how bout you guys???

    About a 9...i'm not a pro and don't play poker with them. I do enjoy blowing them in the casino from time to time though.

      Guys if you simply log in and get your 12 points per day every day for a year you will have 4380 points. Factor in the points you are bound to get here and there with Trivia and it should come to well over 6000. All about discipline men.

          SBR point system is a great way to get action without losing any money. I needed to cut down on my gambling expenses and this is a good way to do it. Plan on becoming Pro soon as I will deposit $200 in a new book for the Triple Crown Races.

            2 But if youre just starting out, a good way to see if you have what it takes.

              Oftentimes during intercourse, I find that thinking about my points helps me achieve orgasm much quicker and with greater intensity.

                Well, I'm Chinese. Having these points makes me feel like my penis is two inches bigger!

                So now I feel like I'm FOUR INCHES LONG!!!

                On top of the world right now, sbr. ON TOP OF THE WORLD!!

                    Stash, I always borrow when I am approaching the 5Dimes cash, don't trust myself to not blow 600 points at the baccarat table. I am glad you have had my back on numerous occasions.

                        points are good for betting games you like that you don't want to put real money on.

                          i think people are getting the numbering system wrong

                          if 1 is most important then jj should be 9 or 10

                          i have to care so i'll say 1 since i'm paying interest to thaddeus

                          on a related note, received ipad 2 yesterday with points!

                            yah he says 1 being important, and 10 not. But since people will still be confused, I will point out it has very little relevance in my life.

                                      Honestly, lately I've found that far and away the best "value" is to use your points for charity donations. I've been doing that periodically, and it makes me feel 1)decent about myself and 2)like these points are actually worth a shit.

                                      Also, I don't know if SBR actually WANTS to encourage more charity donations, since they do probably cost SBR the most, but I've long thought that if they offered badges (like the Doctor's poker tourney one) some of the guys on here would be more likely to donate. I don't know whether I should find that sad or not, but effective is effective...

                                      Either way, just a heads-up to everyone that if you're going to blow your points in the casino anyway, or you really don't care much about them, donating them to charity is by far the best value and (needless to say) more worthwhile than letting them disappear into the SBR casino ether.

                                        So they're on the same wave length of what SBR means to you... sounds about right.

                                            A lot.

                                            I just bet about 7000 points to win like 950 on the Patriots ML.

                                            Might have to off myself if I lose.

                                              When I need to tilt, instead of all in on my real money account, I do it on SBR to lose steam. Saved me a lot of money.

                                                  Points are cool! I make wagers with my points that i'd never do with cash. Like 8 teamers and +400 ML's. I also use them to experiment with wagers.

                                                  On a 1-10 scale i'd say 4

                                                    About a 5. I use them for trail and error. Plus I try to get a points bet in for every real money bet I do.

                                                      can you still buy pizza as a non-pro?

                                                      with all your points you could make a $200 deposit to be pro and get the $200 back in target gift cards...

                                                        I just bet about 7000 points to win like 950 on the Patriots ML.

                                                        Might have to off myself if I lose.
                                                        good play. Free points.

                                                        What are the limits for the nfl again?

                                                              SBR jacked my points. I didn't complain. That answer your question?
