    No, but pizza orders will likely still go up. We'll soon have 2000 pros getting double the points.

    pavyracer:

    Do not think so.

    A) Why make money for SBR on your losses

    B** Why admit to gambling since your IP is vey easy to locate.

    C) Plan going into action to nail internet gambling here in the US

    These are just a few points I can make. There are more but I can not say at this time......

    I don't have a problem with SBR making money on my losses, though I try not to lose. I never do referrals via people I know in case there's an issue with their account and it gets tagged to mine in some way.
