    1 hour 30 minutes to not even be in the top 10 now

    playing 2 hours for 20 points 8th place is most definitely worth while

    "2018 sbr poker will be bigger and better then ever"
    cut tournies down
    cut payment format down
    cut number of prizes down
    keep the promos the same


    it all adds up

    the debate is sbr promoting " new, exciting , improved" promotions then blatantly lying and cutting all rewards in half

    who the fck said this is a job? what are you even talking about buddy...?
    this is why big corporations and lies are always spread in society and nothing happens, because sheep like you just go along with it and dont care about being duped. Sad sight to see, but people like you will always follow the herd and agree to everything

    GL with your 20 cents for 2 hours of time

    maybe the budget got cut for poker and the number of points weren't available as years past? maybe drew was trolling everybody for giving him such a hard time in the spring tournament? I don't play here for money or pizza just entertainment if your not happy about the tournaments don't play, less people playing will make it easier to cash and make the top 24

    I agree with firekillex pretty much...

    What annoys people is that sbrdrew try to sell it like there was an improvement, where evidently there's not... is a bad look because it denotes a lack of honesty and lack of transparency... because me for example, being new and all, I really got excited with Drew's post until I pretty much read all the more seasoned poster's posts...

    SBR would have been much better off admitting the +EV of the poker was decreased in a humble and kinda apologetic manner. It is what it is... and still people will be happy being an SBR Pro.

    Its the lying touting that is bad... because it insults people's intelligence. I won't complain tho, as I never played with the old format so I guess makes not much difference to me but I get it!

    112 played ...but I’m sure many were like me and threw it all in on the first decent hand just to either double up or be done with it.

    i only take it serious if I can double up early. If not (like last night when my 99 lost), are actually kind of glad when I lost.

    you guys crack me up. This reminds me of a friend i had bitching about his closing bar penetrate putting on weight. He never took her out. No one knew he was fukking her. Never cost him a penny.He never put anything but time and energy into it.

    There might be something here. Another thread talks abt SBR slow paying international payers (like a month wait). If SBR is having a cash crunch, just admit it and pay JJ less.

    Sure guys keep on complaining and playing. Feeling so entitled but doing something about it is totally different story.

    If you are ever at my starting table and I suggest going all in first hand - I mean it. Do it and you'll have a very efficient tournament.

    Hey Drew,

    Will SBR Poker ever be mac friendly? (Other than having to download a bunch of things and a confusing process)

    Thank you

    I would expect that the software is much closer to shutting down than making any kind of enhancements.

    See he is working for them and saying same thing. You bitches are bitching and not doing anything about it! The problem is simple actually. If gender % would be rewerse this would be solved last event lol. But since 99% poker players are male lol SBR can do this easily for awhile(in my opinion at least a year).

    I am no perfect but i am sure i am above average! I am just not broke(or have far to much time) to play when rewards are far to small. I am not saying 1 year ago they were decent(they were borderline for me with hope i could get lucky finals) but now basic rewards(dailies) are so low only losing poker players(players that cant win playing NL25 online) can afford to play.

    The only thing i am sad about here is 90%+ players complaining but only 10-20% players actually boycotting! Otherwise i am peachy Bobby enjoy your top15 SBR rankings this year. I am 99% sure youll be there this year lol(not cause you are so good ofc. but cause competition will additionally reduced!).

    I boycotted weekend tourney's, since free poker for pros is falsely advertised. There's nothing free about weekend poker.

    Bobby enjoy your top15 SBR rankings this year. I am 99% sure youll be there this year
    Will do, I'm 99.4% sure as well.

    I’m not interested in using my desktop that is aged haha and that’s a problem on MY end, I commend sbr for running an event for posters year after year

    They don’t have to do this bro

    I will always be pro even if I don’t participate in the tourneys

    Good luck

    The fuk'in eternal optimist cincykid here. Yeah, it is a fuk'in cake walk for you, what you fail to understand is how unjust it is to American players. We represent the majority of site supporters here and were promised changes to the poker tourneys and payout formats, which in reality, equated to blow'in smoke up our ass. Since you've only been here since November of last year, you actually have no real fuk'in idea what we're talk'in about. But please, write another 200+ replies on how fuk'in shit happy you are, you're about that short of 6000 posts.

    Poker badges would probably be helpful in quelling some of the dissatisfaction if they can be enabled again.

    Plus it's nice to see who has placed recently.

    SBR: Excellent job with the poker tournaments!

    This is my first post. I am learning how to play poker. Someone told me I should play against the pros so I appreciate the opportunity to learn the game from the pros. I have no complaints, and salute the SBR and especially SBR Drew for doing a good job in my humble opinion. Well done Sir: Well done!
