Lol oh yeah I forgot about that one.
Tell him to come to Salt City Billiards on August 30th, the night before Turning Stone. He can have all he wants.
Payball is played on a snooker table.....rack up the six colors and break like nine-ball,
Shoot in order, yellow to black....money on every ball....double on the last.
Some of the high rolling games were $100 a ball, $200 on the black, and double for a
complete run-out.
Denny won some big games shooting like this....lots of outs...even on the 6x12 at
Cochran's in Frisco.
He won over $40,000 at a big one in Dayton....early 70s, that was a lot of dough.
It's usually a group game, BTW....if 6-handed, you're collecting from 5 players.
Bergman and co said they wanted to play for up to 30 k some big table 10 ball
Thorpe gt offered 10 going to 100 and said he would only play with 20 games on wire :O
Schmidt then starts barking at Billy and wants 9-7 or 11-8.
There is guys in my local pool hall; that will play Billy with 10-7.
I cant take these guys seriously who say they are Mosconi team locks and should be this that and the other and they wont get u and play a fellow American like Bergman who lets be honest isn't exactly playing every week like they are.
This makes me even more impressed with SVB who cant get a money game so steps up and plays Tony 1 pocket his game for his own cash. loses then comes back for more.

Tip of the iceberg, baby.
Sounds like your locals are in a position to play schmidty. Must be a strong lot.
Somebody invite him over...that cat goes a long time without hitting balls
Exactly. If any top pro wants to play a big match while in town for Turning Stone, The New Salt City Billiards is ready to host it. We will have 2 brand new Diamonds coming plus gold crowns. 2 Gold crown 3s restored by Mark Gregory, play terrific. They can also play the Monday after TS...we will put you up.
I'd like to see Shaw vs Bergman on a neutral table with Jayson playing right . Bergaman played great in,their long race, but Jayson was way off. I'd put money up on Shaw if it would get you here.
Are you playing Turning Stone? We can make this happen....
Call us to make arrangements....look for us on facebook
I would definitely say yeah you have a better chance at being sponsored but you're not going to get much. I could get $1,500 a month in cues from Muecci. They even built me a cue and I was going to use it but I hated it so bad I couldn't use it. You will be lucky to get $1,000 a month I think from any sponsor. Meucci is one of the best with that and it varies but mostly they are all getting $500-$2,000 in cues a month and then you still have to sell them. You'll end up with about half of retail. I'm sure that one guy will tell me I'm wrong and if I win some tournament in Europe I'll get $160,000 a year in sponsors lol
It's amazing that meucci and others won't pony up even those numbers you are mentioning, but in cash. To give their own shitty products as payment, way underpayment at that, takes serious gall.
I saw a post on Facebook that Justin is looking to gamble with anybody not from the Phillipines or SVB. How about Chang Jung Lin? I heard he gambles and has beat Orcollo like a drum the times they have played.
Just throwing that out there since we all know no American's will step up to the plate unless given some ridiculous spot.
This is not a shot at Bergman as he is the 2nd best player in a country of 350 million people but more of a shot of how few of the great players will step up to the plate when money is on the line.
I'll bite, I might be able to play him a set of 14.1 for some serious cash. I take vague generalization posts like yours at face value. See if he would like that action, I'll compete with him playing straight pool till his arm falls off. I know a few other Americans who would try him some also. So let me know, battr up.
I've gambled with Dennis a few years ago he gave me the 8 playing 10 ball on 9ft only time we've played. He's my friend, haven't gambled since. I played Warren Kiamco and few others. I think Filipinos, Tawainese, & Chinese are by far the best players in world. I would love to play them because I know it would make me better. I couldn't care less about playing the Challenge of Champions, World 9 Ball, etc. World 9 Ball 10 years ago when Matchroom ran it for sure I'd love too. They made it exciting & it paid good... Now it's a joke... Half the people in it shouldn't even be allowed in a pro tournament.
30 40 k winner payouts are a joke ? How many of those matchroom events did you play in 10 yrs ago

If you can't win it does it really matter? Too many guys that play better, he'd be playing for 5th or worse. Not much money there.
Jason
He plays great, just too many killers in some of those fields
Hence first sentence , fact is 5th down never pays much anywhere anytime, He's inside top 20 Fargo it's worth a flyer

Dont order the hiv special.
It is NOT worth it.
