Man no love for those of us on the west coast! Latest event is 1PM our time! Ouch! Not going to be able to play in any of these

[Nittany Lion]

So a 3x rollover means for example if you win 1,000pts you have to risk a total of 3,000pts in the open play poker rooms right? Can you for example go all in preflop for 1K points three times and that would satisfy the 3x rollover? I'm not saying that is a smart idea, just wondering.

[oiler]

wondering if u can use it in sportsbook also to get to rollover

[Enkhbat]

Could you explain the rollover in detail?

Ya WTF! I could probably make a 3pm(6est) but a 1pm(4est). Ouch, may catch a game here or there if i get off early. This sucks, i was really looking forward to playing some SBR-Poker again.

[yisman]

It has to be rolled over 3x on ring tables. Also, the points have to subject to rake. If your bet goes uncalled, that does not advance you towards completing rollover.

If you bet 500 and no one calls, that doesn't count.

Poker points can only be rolled over at the poker tables. Not in the sportsbook.

seriously this needs to be answered.

how do we rollover 700 X 3 = 2100pts? can it be done in 3 hands sitting with 700pts.. all in all in all in? just curious


btw thx for poker being brought back

[jackpot269]

Alrighty then lets get to it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[yisman]

stash, I answered above. Points have to be subject to rake.. If no one calls, it doesn't count.

[4uk4life]

Wonder how many all ins we'll see at the cash tables every hand

[Nittany Lion]

Not many if what yisman said is correct, he said your bet has to be called in order for it to count as part of the rollover. Pretty gay rule, tons of people going to be losing their poker points in the ring tables now, me included

Add me to the list. I took 50 in last night to give it a shot since I suck at cash games but might as well practice. I built it up to 105 pts then managed to lose it in 2 hands with pocket aces that lose to runner runner for a straight then 2 hands later with a set of 7s that met a flopped straight lol

Good luck glad poker is back!

[danso]

Good stuff! Glad that poker is finally back!!

[wtt0315]

at least it is back i guess

[AzNDooM]

Thanks Lou for this great tournament and glad to see it back online.

What Yisman said about "at risk" and rollover doesn't seem logical to me.
When you go all in , you are putting that money at risk --- there is the risk that you will be called and lose. I can't see how going all in is not considered a risk. When you take a RISK by going all in , you don't know if you will be called.
Can the person who goes all in lose? If the answer is yes, then there is "risk" in going all in and the amount should count toward rollover.

The fact that an all in doesn't get called does not mean there was no risk at the the time of the all in.


edit: One more thing : I believe yisman is correct. What I am objecting to above is the phrase "at risk" that he used. If the official rule for rollover, which none of us have seen in writing ( I believe), uses the term "at risk" , as yisman did, then that's a bad way to put it ( see above). A better way to say it would be "only points subject to rake count as rollover".

[tmattis17]

cant wait!

[oiler]

doesnt make much sense to me,says they are improving but i think they are going in the wrong direction.must be losing so many points they are trying to find a way to get them back.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Is rollover amount tallied before you cash in a tournament? If I were to play the cash tables now for an hour or so, would that play count towards a future tournament cash?

This is what was stated. Maybe there's a better term to use than at risk but I wasn't sure how to put it.

Sure, you don't know if you're putting them at risk or not, but the points cannot be lost if no one calls. Therefore I used at risk and at risk against other points. From your point of view, you're risking them, but from the software's point of view, they were not properly risked if there's no callers and thus no way for the cards to fall in such a way that you'd lose.

You cannot complete rollover on points that have not been earned. After they are earned, they will go into a poker wallet and you then can begin to complete rollover.

[dikefale]

Thanx SBR.

[dikefale]

Nice prizes.

[hhsilver]

Yisman, I see you edited your original post that had "at risk" in it and replaced that by "subject to rake", as I suggested. It would have be nice to mention this so it doesn't look like my post was much ado about nothing.
( I should have quoted your original post)

[hhsilver]

This is what was stated. Maybe there's a better term to use than at risk but I wasn't sure how to put it.

Sure, you don't know if you're putting them at risk or not, ...........

This is nonsense. When you make a bet (all in or otherwise) you are putting the points at risk. Whether someone calls or not is irrelevant - when you make the bet you are risking that amount. I have no problem with the rollover rule if it concerns "subject to rake", but don't state the rule using the word "risk". It's good you took that word out of your original post.

[yisman]

I didn't write the rules. I don't see why you're criticizing me to begin with. Obviously you understood what I said.


Those are the rules. I don't even think there's an official rulebook anywhere anyway. I was trying to help.

[nomeansno]

3x rollover is not that bad, can be done pretty easily

[ThaddeusB]

Calm down people, only raked hands counting towards rollover is the way EVERY poker room calculates rollover. Geez.

[Ninersnut]

These times need to change. Normal people work atleast til 4 or 5....That means all the 18-22 year olds get to play as well as non US. Just another phase of SBR shutting out the US. Dont bite the hand that feeds you here.....

[BigDaddy]

i see that 51 players are registered in the 2pm event

i thought only 50 could enter?

[70kgman]

• Max players: 50 per event.

There are currently more than 50 people registered for the 2PM and climbing. Did the programmers forget to seal up the hole in the ceiling?

[Ninersnut]

Business as usual.

[Bcatswin]

52 now
