Mike was BANNED from AZB, so I would say it is a sure bet he will not reply here. Thnik when the Viking Tour went bye bye, he tried something with OZONE BILLIARDS????

I also saw on his FB page that Mike and his wife Terrie opened up a Home Health Care and Staffing Agency in Georgia called NurseTrek ( http://nurse-trek.com/ ) Apparently the new business is keeping them pretty busy and they have taken some time off from the tour biz.
Campaigning for Obama takes up the rest..... LOL
Looking at the New Simonis Cloth 9-Ball Tour web-site Mike has a lot of his old sponsors for his new venture. Wonder if all this sponsorship will mean more money in the players pockerts?
All u need is a
pen and piece of paper to figure out what the peel is/...
That is how we calculate what some venues pull from the auction, it works the same for the added money events,,,, Added money plus entry fees = payouts???? anything less is a TD fee.

My point is simple. Mike has a boat load of sponsors, and my question always was were does the sponsorship benefit the players.
Mike reply was that this was proprietary information. So weather the sponsor contributed money, or product. Who was the beneficiary of the sponsorship?
Mike "hyped" his tour like it was the best thing since sliced bread. But who got the slices of bread?????
i see people b*t*h and moan all the time about how much the td's take to run the events. i have always said they take what they take and they deserve something to be away from home and running events.
mike hardly does anything in GA anymore. the gsbt doesn't come around hardly if at all anymore. the seminole's pulled out so no more gem city. now tell me what was better getting plenty of events that paid what they paid or having 100% of the nothing we have now. tell me what the pen and paper say when that gets added up. i'll tell ya, it adds up to suck.

One thing is for sure. If Janis said the event was going to have $25,000 added, $20,000 added, $10,000 added, $5,000 added, $2,500 added or even $1,500 added you could bet the house that that money was always there. Gotta give him a lot credit for that.
I read somewhere that in his stats his tours gave away over $10 Million dollars over the years. There are no tours in existence that can say that. He's been doing this for over 20 years, I hope he made millions for himself.
