Default Whats the difference between sportsbook pts. and personal picks?

I recently signed up to go into the SBR sportsbook to place wagers with my SBR points. I noticed you can also place wagers in a little box to the right called personal picks. Can someone tell me the difference between these two? I noticed the minimum to win amount on sportsbook seems to be 5 SBR points whereas the personal picks seem lower. Am I wagering SBR points on these personal picks. Someone please explain....thanks!

Doesn't the personal pick just get posted above your avatar so everyone knows who you are on?

Its basically another tracking device for your personal picks. I use both the spreadsheet and the personal picks to track my plays. Most of the time they match. The personal picks on sbrpicks.com autogrades which is pretty nice. I wish SBR would condense both products into one.

but do they differ in regards to SBR points???? In another words, I know the regular sportsbook plays use SBR points, but are personal picks the same? I ask because I noticed there were some sort of units you could wager on personal picks but after I placed a wager my SBR points were the same. Help!!!!

The points have nothing to do with personal picks

It lets everyone know how many units you wagered on your pick you are not risking your points
