    I like that WACA bet too. Always a fast flat pitch, should have plenty of runs in it.
    Yes staying up for a little off it. Warner hitting broad fir 4 2nd over was good

    The charity angle is just there so SBR can not be accused of selling americans gambling points they can cash out.

    I think you will find Americans will have other options in the near future.

    Whats so good about being pro that makes it no brainer. Nobodys ever really told me

    I'm not US, so they given me ~ $1500 in cash at 5D or Pinny each year for points.

    It used to be that way for you too. And without limits. So you could collect thousands at one stage.

    A US poster can tell you the exact situation now, but I think most would say its still an easy decision. You definitely get more than 200 bucks cash value if you want it from store. But mostly you just get to participate in everything.

    Interesting. Your getting 1500 to 5d through your points? Ive never bothered because I think im not elligible for these cash bonuses as my account wasnt created through SBR. Am I understanding this correctly? Would you recommend I sign up with another of the books to take of advantage?

    There is a limit of $1000 per book per year now.

    Ive only done 5D and Pinny cash... oh and I used to take bookmaker cash too. Think there is 1 or 2 others we can use. SAI I think is one. Check the SB cash page.

    if you can join Pinny as an SBR referral you'd be crazy not to. 1500 points = $100 with 1x rollover at Pinny and 3x roll at 5D

    I checked out the SBR sportsbook cash page and looks like I could possibly go with bookmaker, sportsinteraction, bodog or DSI.

    Not a bad recovery by the Aussies today, once again relying on the tail waging. If they can get to 300 that would be pretty respectable I think.

    Yeah agree. Somehow the day ended up almost even. I did not see the morning session but apparently we looked in control most of that, then we came back after tea.

    If not for Broad England would be staring down the barrel of a 1st test loss already I reckon!

    Cant join Bookmaker (last I checked). They threw me to DSI. So guess I could use that still. Bodog dont take us I dont think. So SIA or DSI are the options I think.

    It makes winning points bets and game prizes feel better when you know they are virtually cash too.

    Oh yet Betcris was where BM sent me to.

    Guess DSI is my last option at moment.

    Hope they strike a deal with B365 one day.

    I wonder if the air pressure or something suddenly changed and threw the bats timing out.

    what a mad [period. 5 out for 7 runs.

    hard to say without being there but Lyon is really getting that ball to turn now. And also England losing some wickets on slashing shots wide they should probably have left.

    The bowlers are starting to hang their heads now too.

    Glad to see Aussies on top but was kind of hoping for great battles this series.

    Ricky Gervais posted this card he spotted on twitter.

    Hallmark, a card for EVERY occasion.

    Could be useful around SBR!

    Didnt manage to see any of todays play but looks like its all over. This should be great for the series though, Aussies will have strong hopes of stealing the ashes back now.

    Lost my bet but I can't say I mind one bit.
