    SBR might as well just shut down the poker site!

    Points are worth nothing. No reason to even open up the software.

    This is really sad. But the owners dont need any of the present posters. We dont need advertising to bet in their books. I am not sure that forums are needed at all for US based sportsbooks. Everyone already knows about them. Maybe some new blood might make a difference to the new owners though

    Yes please send your points to eddy.

    Or trust that your points ARE worth something and the new owners are just sorting things out.

    None of this is going to happen quickly it seems but SBR staff are trying to make it so however we don't have a timeline for things.

    However we've been reassured that your points do indeed have value, if not more than before!

    We can still play for fun, even if points are useless. I think most of us enjoy playing against each other.

    Agreed 100% and I like taking rolled over points to the casino and playing!! Don't shut it down add some tournaments!! But that's just me everyone is different!! I been around since before points or pro was here just like a lot of others and we are still here . I will be glad when all is worked out and rolling and see the new vision at SBR until then I guess we wait!!!

    For those that don't realize, Poker is still operating.

    One tourney per day, starting right now daily, with about 1500 points up for grabs.

    Only 14 playing today for 10 cash spots.

    I really hope so.

    Remember when we could all grab a $20 freeplay at Betphoenix for 100 points?

    WE do need more playing opti but today is lowest number of players I've ever noticed, we usually have at least 22 since the change to sbr maybe when people see that points are worth something to them they will start playing again. When casino is up and running they are worth something to me now!!!

    May as well collect the easy points and hope.

    Not like it will be that long until the store is open again. I'm guessing January but could easily be sooner.

    Do you want to know why only 14 people are playing?

    Guess what people do in the US between 8-5?

    Why can't you make the tourney in the evenings so we can play too?

    Threads like this suggesting it's not operating at all?


    Be patient Pavy. These guys like Poker more than old SBR. They say it's coming back.

    Thanks Optional. I could have figured that out. I just know I
    always played at one central time before. I'm used to checking
    that time. I'll check at noon cental time.
