Thanks for all that you do for pool, Jay...

The Rack in Detroit...

Hatch beat Runnels first set of finals. Hill/Hill in the second set and Ike hooked himself on the 7 on a fairly easy table... Dennis runs out for the title.

Runnels takes winners bracket. Bergman and Hatch playing in semi finals. 10k, 6k and 4k...

Down to 8... Hatch vs Bergman and Runnels vs Groce on winners side. Klatt, Gregg and Bartram are still alive on the losers.

Any chance this is still available?

Thank you, all. That really helps me!

What would be a fair selling price for a 4x8 Brunswick Gold Crown 1 that is in "good" condition? Current market price? Thanks -

Now back to the the original point of this runaway thread, there IS money in pool... FOR SVB! That was the only simple fact that I was trying to point out:) And to continue trying to compare pool to billion dollar companies like the NFL, MLB, NBA and the PGA is absolutely foolish and a waste of...

In that context, it is apples to oranges. All of our lifestyles have expenses attached to earning money. The real question would then be taxed vs untaxed. The over/under of the top 100 "pro pool players" filing taxes on winnings might be 20. Not being judgemental or even critical but rather an...

Bad implication then (or perceived)... was going at if you play well enough and are the man like Shane. Thus 45k in 2 months.

Agree fully. Perhaps one of the most logically sound responses on this forum. Chris Jent > John Stockton. Ha :)

Understood completely. But in all honesty, how many even have a conversation with Uncle Sam every year? Few? Some? None?

I also understand that if you place 5/6 in most tournaments that you will be lucky to break even. Having said that, to my original point, if you play well you can make money as SVB earned $153k, $161k, $190k $96k, $110k and $147k the previous 6 years.

I didn't say pro pool was doing well overall... it has severe issues. But 45k in 2 months is more than most make in a year... pretty solid for SVB.
