Reminds me of the guy who turned in his resignation letter to move to another job and they fired him two days later.

Happens a lot in the Casino industry

There are no plans to revive the casino AFAIK.

Update: The sportsbook platform will be disabled today - meaning members will no longer be able to transfer points themselves. Any points that were not transferred to the forum already will be transferred automatically by the end of this week.

It's final - The beloved SBR Sportsbook is officially deceased...

I'm pretty sure you had a certain time frame to bet them and now that you didn't they are worth nothing just like the people who had poker points and never got a chance to turn them into real points when the poker room was open. Of course Opti told us at one point that the poker points would be given to us some way that weren't used but than I believe that statement was rescinded unless that changes again.

yes that part i do remember but i also thought there was something about andy having a plan for them since we were limited in what we could bet with the freeplays. thanks for the info.

I really feel sorry for old SBR Lou, he had planned on retiring off the proceeds of his bonus points

Poor Carseller, is getting all these daily points but doesn't really have a way to lose them! Hope he doesn't go crazy.

He was the best at that! He may have actually owed the entire forum points during his run...

**Gruntworker** · 02-02-23, 02:02 AM

He was JJ's "Poster of the Year" a few years ago, then he borrowed 2K points from me and never paid them back. Someone paid me for him and then he disappeared a short while later.

Yes it's all gone: Poker, Casino, Store, Sportsbook, Trivia, Holiday bonuses, and JJ.

Didn't he used your points to play in the bowl contest and when he didn't win anything he took off!

Yes. Someone stepped up and paid the points back for him. 2daBank paid him back like 40 points of the 2k+ and then disappeared. Probably in jail.

Who is it that wont give you that straight answer Bcatswin? Let me know the name please so I can hammer them.

If you read post #1 of this thread you will get the most up to date info we have from SBR about the future.

It takes 15 seconds and 1500 betpoints to renew right now. But suit yourself.

I think you will regret it one day if it costs $100 again once the new platform is installed.
