What does being a SBR PRO get you?

mvp123 · 03-10-11, 02:49 PM

i really dont see that much difference other than the points and free poker

To start, this is not a "Rant" post, just wondering about this because I have seen a number of changes/references to changes to what PROs vs. Non-Pros can do.

So, what are the benefits/differences between each?

- PROs get free buyins to the tourneys.
- PROs no longer get a discount in the SBR Store.
- PROs get more daily posting points (12 vs 4 ?).
- PROs can send points to each other. (I saw a reference to this today)

What are the other benfits/changes that I have missed or if I am incorrect above?

Thanks!

well pros dont get a discount in the SBR store anymore but ONLY PROS are allowed to purchase all items in SBR store

Cool thanks guys.

Pros also never miss a flush draw in cash game poker.

I beg to differ with you on this point! guessing you just caught a bad beat to a river flush?

Non pros can't buy anything in the store other than stuff for new sportsbook accounts and 1 t-shirt.

Pro have full access to the store non-pros don't definitely worth it being a pro

OneLossParlayGuy · 03-11-11, 12:52 AM

BeerDog99 · 03-11-11, 01:09 AM

Agreed.

the biggest would have to be getting items from the store....not much to buy if your a non-pro

BeerDog99 · 03-11-11, 09:41 AM

thanks, this was the point to this post. I was not aware that non-pros could not buy most items from the store.

Cheers.

PROS - most importantly get 500$ without counting trivia or poker just to post here every year. 4700+pts (@ 12 per day)

that is more than DOUBLE the 200$ petty amount they require to be a pro..

simple as pie

I love the free poker entries as I am a poker junkie. I do miss the discount in the SBR store, but the new huge tourneys that have been being held Monday thru Thursdays has more than made up for the loss of the discount. Also, sounds good for braggin rights when I mention to peeps that I'm an SBR pro. Workin towards the Tom Tom XL One and the dri fit shirt as my next 2 store purchases. This is a big plus value site.

BeerDog99 · 03-12-11, 10:52 AM

100% agreed. I was real skeptical about it when Sinmedio told me about SBR. Since I joined, I have really enjoyed the forum and the poker. The value for the points earned has been phemominal!

Thanks.

Does your Pro Membership expire?
ie - is it a yearly thing?

Gruntworker · 03-13-11, 01:08 AM

yup, it's an annual thing. But just having $200 in a sponsored account isn't bad at all.
