OK, that was a VERY entertaining match! Nice job, easy-e!

What I don't like about this event is that they say "payouts settled by bank transfers within 7 days of event end". Not that I have a chance to win $$$, but that does not sit right with me and I have not heard of any other tournament doing that.

I just pay the annual subscription to DAZN and forget about it. Divided over 10 or so events per year, it's a lot of pool coverage and relatively low expense. The worst thing is that events, like this one, start at 3:00 AM my time, so I'm staying off Facebook until I catch up with the morning...

Great job, Eric!

Yes, Emily was great. I had VIP tickets but one of them was behind a post. I went to Emily and pleaded for her to do better with our tickets. She paused for a moment and handed me two new tickets. She said, you're going to like these! Super VIP ringside, right next to Pia Filler during the...

I did it in 2019 at the first US Open ran by Matchroom. It was amazing! I drew Albin Ouschan in the first round. I actually had a decent chance to win the first game. I did win my first and only game after Albin won the first 6. The whole production was fantastic and it was a small step...

Nick (the guy that won) is a very nice guy and I'm really proud of him for winning this monster tournament! I have played him quite a few times and have hosted $250 entry round robins at my home in the last year. Nick has beaten me the last 5-6 times we played even though our fargos are not...

I was so lucky to have my best tournament at Griff's, thanks to Mark who hosted it and made sure it went smoothly. It will be a memory I will always cherish! I was so pleasantly shocked to see this in his obituary: "Shortly before his death, Mark funded a trust for the preservation of Griff’s...

Like you and so many others, I thought the answer Vos Savant proposed was wrong and counterintuitive....but then I looked at her explanation and it is obvious. People holding doctorates in Statistics were also irate and dismissive of Vos Savant's answer at the time, and wrote scathing letters...

I'm in a "chat" with DAZN to find out what is happening, but since I'm #27 in line, the event will likely be over!

Me, too. It shows "live" on DAZN, but it's just a blank screen with "DAZN"

Does anyone know the origin of the ball-off-the-table foul? When was it first instituted? Did it stay down and was it ball-in-hand originally? I'm talking about any object ball (not the cue-ball), and I'm most interested in rotation games, although that rule may have been established before 9...

Tevez beats Appleton in a dominating 10-4 win to make the final 4.

This Christopher Tevez from Peru is no joke. I had never even heard of him and he is taking down champion after champion.

OK, I can finally say my poolroom is finished! In 2017 we built an addition onto the house and for the last 5 years I had my 9' Olhausen in the middle. I decided I needed a Diamond Pro-Am 7' this year and I was able to rearrange, redo my lighting, and fit both tables! Each table has at least 5...
