SVB Signed With DP and Yalin Tables
- Thread starter Johnnyt
- Start date
I doubt it will make any difference (I don't see why it would). I'm guessing it was coincidental with Allison. I don't have any idea how long he is under contract with cuetec.
Well I see Yalin sells cues also so that would be a no no with cuetec. Johnnyt

Johnny,
I went to the Dragon website and see no reference to Shane having signed with them. I do not see this reported anywhere and we usually get a press release from Dragon when they sign a player. Do you have a link that would confirm this news?

I'm looking for the place I found it. It said SVB and Erica Park signed with Yalin. I know i'm not crazy yet but can't find it again yet. You may take the thread off until I or someone can verify it if you'd like. Johnnyt

Johnny,
No, we can leave the thread. And those men in white coats at your door were not sent by me!
Seriously, if you can find that it would be news that we would like to have. Thanks for looking.

LOL. I can't find it. I have been everywhere on the web that I went too this morning. Maybe they took it down. Johnnyt
Last paragraph at bottom - "Yalin is represented by renown professional players such as Karen Corr, Shane Van Boening, Karl Boyes, Erica Park, Liu Haitao, and Scott Higgins." http://www.dragonpromotions.com/news/09062011.html
Couldn't find any mention of him joining DP though.

Thank you. Maybe I read it wrong. Johnnyt
Hi, Johnnyt.
I like to correct another fact. AF is sponsored by Star Table, not Yalin.

Yes, thank you, I knew that. I bet I'm not getting that breaking news reporter job I put in for at CNN now. Johnnyt
Thank you sir. I forgot I was on their site. Johnnyt

You would think Dragon would update their website immediately yet Shane is not yet listed there as a member of the Dragon family of players.
The table sponsorship is for international events. Basically he wears a patch when he plays overseas. I doubt Shane will sign with any management group unless they come with some long green up front or bring a substantial sponsorship to the table and that usually isn't how it works.
Since Shane is one of the few Americans who goes to every big event in China and the Phillipines it's fair to say he has probably played on Yalin tables a bunch.
Yalin and Star are the two biggest table makers in China and Yalin is trying to toss out sponsorships like candy a'la PartyPoker. I don't know what the deals are worth, knowing China it could be low or it could be high.
One thing is that when in China they are VERY PICKY about not wanting their sponsored players to play on other brand tables. Xiao Ting Pan is NOT allowed to do any exhibition in a pool room that does not have Star tables. Karen Corr was roundly chastised for having her picture taken with a fan where there was another table manufacturer's booth in the background.
Fury sponsors Xiao Ting and they offered to buy, transport and set up Star tables for Pan to play on for a planned exhibition tour around China and Star said no.
