Anyone know payouts for tournament and for calcutta for say 1st thru 4th?

anyone know the score of Alex vs. Landon match?

I'd like to give a big thank-you in advance to Jerry Forsyth and AZBilliards for their coverage of the US Open each year. I can only imagine all the time and effort to update brackets, post results, and the live scoring last year was wonderful for the folks at home who want to keep up with...

players list Some players on the players list are invites only and not guaranteed to show up. But they are invited to play due to winning a US Open (Men's or Women's) in the past so therefore Barry gives them all a yearly invite. There will probably be another update to the list this week.

They know Jeanette due to her ties with the largest league in the nation. APA had Allison, now has Jeanette, and has Eva and Dawn as League operators. The ties and advertisement APA has attached with the WPBA players in phenomenal. Maybe if the men had a tour they'd be open to some...

Awesome post....everyone has to work for a living....nothing is free....promoters are actually too generous as the put up this "FREE" added money and it seems our pros think it is "OWED" to them.....If you want to get paid you have to do something to earn it. If Barry would take away the added...

I agree totally Stitch....but unfortunately we as Americans have become lazy and want the walk before we crawl. No one wants to earn anything, they want it given to them. League players and nightly tourneys are all handicapped so the weaker and newbies have a chance to "win". It appears...

As far as the US Open goes Barry does not have to add a dime....and if he didn't I wonder how successful the event would have been in the past. I do not think it's ok to slow pay players, however I think the players don't appreciate the added money in events. They just show up, play, and want...

Most of them couldn't play anyway.....it's just a few on the list who are borderline and complain when they can't play the amateur events. I will not name names but I see at least 3 who have played amateur events. This is giving those players a choice as to whether they want to be considered...

Explanation of round robin format please... On your article on AZ it states pertaining to round robin format: "Some of the benefits are that players will play, guaranteed, for two full days and a minimum of 40 matches (4 rounds)." I also read on here that a match consists of 10 games total...

So if I understand this correctly EVERYONE will play 400 total games before anyone is eliminated? So 200 games per day for the first 2 days per player are played and then field is narrowed on final day to how many players? Also, since all events are pretty much 64 player fields limited is...

Jacoby schedule and contact info Here is this years schedule and contact info for the tour director. He has been scheduling event venues as they come available and sometimes only a week or 2 in advance of event. Tour cards are $50 for the year and events cost $80 to play with tour card or $65...

There is no such thing as a perfect rack unless the balls are perfectly all the same size (not likely especially after an period of use), the table has no divots in the rack area, and the racker must be skilled in racking. Most people don't realize how must skill it takes to rack. You...

Are you the maker of Mind/Body Pool? I have a copy of it and was pleased....Thanks!
