    betpoints?

    Before anyone asks, no I am not giving them away. I havent used a single point on anything but one 40 point contest during the world cup since I signed up for this site. Honestly I don't even know what I'm saving it for. The top stuff in the store would be nice, but that would take me another 6 years to get there. So what should I use my points on , any suggestions what the best thing on that list is, and what I should shoot for

    i think i read somewhere that everything goes up 8% in mid-Feb. something to keep in mind.

    Alex, I'm going to have to agree with jaynor's rationale. Put it towards a money betting website and try getting some big cash outs. All these points were free anyways, why not try to turn them into some real cash.

    Save up to the 14th of February, then buy some stuff. Just don't forget.

    You could by some sportsbook cash, and gift cards.

    yeah I was thinking if I somehow lose all my money then this would be something to fall back on for a little bit back in the account

    I will probably get some extra cash ($250) for 5dimes or Diamond before the Feb.15th increase. Unless I come into some big time points before then. I will probably just save for a iPad or something along those lines after the price increase. I'm sure they will add some new stuff as well.

    I never used them, either, but they are a nice thing to pass along to users who post something thoughtful or helpful, just from a sentimental stand point if nothing else.

    I did just venture to the SBR store, and there is some interesting stuff there. The free plays seem to be where points are best spent.

    I think I might have to consider the sportsbook option. Where does it say that point costs will go up Feb 15?

    Was a thread made a while ago named merry friggin xmas and I remember it was def Feb 15th.
    Spend the points on 5dimes cash and just roll it over slowly in one dollar bets and withdrawal.

    You have about $300 cash value, in sportsbook cash, there. If that amount is 10% or more of your bankroll I'd take it as SB cash.

    If not, I'd gamble it like a degenerate in the SBR book until it was.

    Or take it as $500 odd worth of freeplays, and take the other side of any +250/-250 contest in your favorite book to try and transfer it over.

    I bought from the SBR store the Nike Polo shirt with the 'Dri Fit' material. Very comfortable and looks great. Only cost about 440 ish points I believe. But make sure you do something before the Feb 15th 8% increase.

    It has only been a day Alex.

    Please allow up to 2-4 business days for the prize to be credited by the sportsbook.
