      Cant say I blame them. I’d be doing the same thing if I had the time.
      I do it for the status! Lol. Don’t get me wrong I love the contest too but it been years since I used my points to actually buy anything. I Usually build them up then some night I can’t sleep and start getting itch to play in one my books online casinos I come here and lose the points instead!! Has saved me a ton, don’t even wanna think bout how much winnings I’ve dumped back in casino back in day. Since they started the points I never play w my cash!! SBR IS THE TITS!!!

          I mean if you go pro, and login every day of that year and never make 1 single post or win a trivia question or get 1 single betpoint from anything other than logging in, that's 4380 betpoints alone. that by itself will get you roughly $160-$170 worth of bitcoin, so you made 70 bucks off your donation. Now add on the bi weekly trivia, constant contests, beat the prick, poker, posting in sub forums, being a betpoints loan shark ect. You can easily come up with another 100-$200 worth of betpoints not even trying. Most of the time i suck at picking winners, guess most weeks on the trivia questions, play poker here and there and have easily accumulated 9-10k betpoints over my 8 months as pro. That's almost 500 in bitcoin if i was a bit better at rolling over freeplay in the SBR Book.

          But my point is you can simply login and never place a bet in the sbr book, or win a single point off trivia or contest and still come out ahead money wise and a load of good karma stored away from the charity donation.

              I just cashed in some betpoints for bitcoin and had the bitcoin in my wallet (still has 0 confirmations due to parent input unconfirmed) in under 2hrs which is awesome. I cannot say how fast the sportsbook cash stuff is though, but I would assume for the most part it would be relatively fast depending on which book you choose

                Thats the other thing. I already have accounts with most of the books I'd want to use. I think I have like two options due to my current resident country laws too. Just bet and betonline...Sportsinteraction acts up and I'm not trying to deal with all that noise.

                I see the value, though. Just not really worth going out of my way.

                  my problem is i go weeks or even months at a time where i don't post or barely log in... one of those time periods is when the nba finals end i do almost nothing until college football starts and the NFL gets into gear

                    Yeah betonline is solid, I play a good chunk of my action there, and split my poker action between there and bovada

                        I agree with everything he says in post 1 except for the poker being worth it
                        Havent played in almost 2 years, wayyyyyyy too long of tournaments for what you get
                        SBR kicks ass though, everyone knows I love it and will always support SBR

                                Why would a pizza boy be paranoid about being tracked by 'the government'?
