Jumping, I'll take that. Your 600 to my 500. Doesn't matter what game or games they end up playing, be it 9/10, short/full banks, 9 footer or barbox, 1 hole, 3 cushion. Whatever they agree (for their first session) is fine with me. First session could include multiple games and sets, as long as they say that going in.

If this really goes down, lets double check with each other near game time. I'm not planning on backing down, but you never know what they might end up doing (throwing an arm wrestling match in the mix, lol....)

Let me know.

You are confirmed. My 600 to your 500

As long as it is one of the following games, like you said:
8 ball, 9 ball, 10 ball, Any banks game, one pocket,
Yes we will check back and inform the other the match is going off. Or theres no bet. FAIR?

I say this bet is good till the Super Billiards Expo is over. It may happen there.

Yes, all sounds good. We both have to be aware they are playing for the bet to stand. See you around;)

My banger opinion of some active players:
Tier 1: SVB, Archer
Tier 2: Corey, Schmidt, Morris, Moore, Daulton
Tier 3: Hennessy, Bartram, Landon, Shuff, Justin Hall, etc.

Where is Dechaine and Hatch?

Didn't John just beat Corey like 3 weeks ago? Rodney just isn't what he used to be, i like John over him in 10 ball for sure. I also like John over Shannon in a long race as well as anyone in your 3rd tier. But what do I know :wink:
 
It would be interesting to see Keith in the box again, but realistically, who can expect him to match up for big money right off a long layoff. It's a crap shoot. Not saying he can't do it, but it takes most awhile to shake the rust off. Standard rule for horseplayers, bet them 3rd race back off the layoff. Free advice.
 
Corey is the most talented player the U.S. has.

He just dont have the drive anymore, the tribe spoiled him and I think he lost some interest.

I honestly thought Keith would want to play 9 or 10 ball..I actually like him in the game but I'm sure I will bet on Jr..Cause that's just what I do..After Jr snap y'all off ill make a game..I gotta do more at the Derby than sweat the "New AZ Horse" Chris "Smooth Criminal" Bartram. Y'all confirm this game so I have something to watch..

All of this is lame. Yay, I'm a retired legend in the pool world and am going to come out of retirement because I had to settle an arguement on the internet between some random and my girlfriend who logged into my account and typed what I wanted to say for me. Sweet.

It is posts like this that give me pause why Keith is even bothering to dance for anybody.

If he wants to do it for himself, fine, but I think members who write this kind of crap about somebody like Keith, who's been absent from the pool world and wants to step up to the plate again, is lame. You give him no credit. And it is an insult to Keith, not me, to be honest when you write crap like this, though it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that your post is more directed at me than Keith.

BTW, three offers have come in to play Keith in a large-scale production since all of this began. He must not be too decrepit to hold a cue stick in his hand. Hopefully, he can run three balls, though I realize this may be shocking to some people on this thread.

To think, I was going to take off from work for this, but on second thought, I will never put pool in front of anything in my life again, not even this. I was kind of excited at first, getting back on the pool tournament trail again. Now I could care less whether Keith plays again or not under these circumstances.

This has nothing to do with you, Mr. James Davis Jr. I respect you and hope you and Keith can meet in the middle. He's excited about playing, as was I. I hope he does play for himself, but not for anything that happened on this forum. People call him names and take potshots at him, only because they don't like me. It doesn't make sense to me, just as him playing pool for anybody on this forum is lame.

Thanks, MahnaMahna, for showing me the light. I was about to make a big mistake. You tried to insult Keith and me bot h, but instead, you've saved me a lot of grief, time, money, and effort.

Jam, there will always be knockers. Just ask your partner about that. You can't let them bother you if you're gonna try to play pool. I know Keith has never been affected by a knocker. He shakes them off like so much dirt on his shoes.

Good advice, JAM....let your friends determine how your day goes.
If you leave it up to your enemies, you're gonna have a lotta bad days.

They sure were Jay. How bout Reid Pierce? and didn't Dave Matlock win the Olathe event last year in a field of young guns?

I believe we have to do things a little different when we get up in age. I also believe we can improve every day of our life. How exciting is that?

$300 to $250. They must play even, must be before the end of SBE, and must be public - as in publicized on this forum before they start (cannot find out I lost and didn't even know they played).
