    too bad pros have no money to drink.

          Some sportsbooks now do like 2 drinks per ticket, which is annoying. Except for everyone here who bets a grand a game instead of my square 50 or 100 usually.

          Still though, 50 bucks a bud light is a bit high..

            That is annoying but I'm sorry to say that the angle shooting freeloaders ruined hanging out in the sportsbook and tying one on while gambling the day away.

                In theory it doesn't matter much, as drinking really is basically free in vegas. Whether you sit for a minute at a penny slot or if you just go buy like cheap alcohol anywhere down the strip.

                Go into one of the stores right outside the casinos, buy a 12 pack, put it in a bag and sit in the sportsbook. Nobody will fuk with you. Finish the 12 pack?.. walk 10 minutes back to the store and come back with a new one.

                If you have 200 bucks on a game, who cares if you bought some beer from a store. Even free drinks are really 1 buck unless you are a total scumbag and don't tip.

                  Yep. The damn Book Bums seem to have more drink tickets then the bettors.

                      I expect to go pro sooner or later, simply to support the service. But are you sure you want to use that analogy? Remember WHY Vegas gives away drinks?
                      an if I'm on the other side of the table, I'm GLAD to see the other player(s) drinking.

                      But I know what you mean. Thank you.

                        just start shutting off points of those who say they are too big time to become SBR PROS
                        they will not mind and can air their views about the program freely afterwards
                        it will save you a few points and give me a few laughs when the hypocrites start posting about having their points shut off in PT.

                          The program works very well the way it is. Remember everyone starts out a non Pro. If you look at the contests almost all have full sponsorship as of late. In fact we are sold out until April/baseball. These sponsors love supporting contests with real verified players.

                            It's the phrase that sux, you know damn well what Pro means...ppl with a clue and whatever, which is bullshit.
                            If you'd call it something else, noone would give a damn.
