    George Breedlove Carl Bolm Roadman Dumped and Stole and It Will Be Addressed

    This is too much to read and I am sure this has been posted but why on earth would Carl dump, he has more $$ than 99% of the people in the building combined. Do you think he would dump and risk someone doing something stupid to him over a meaningless amount of $$ to him? The truth is he can't...

    Vivian Villarreal got them again

    I don't understand how the event can't continue because of 1 sponsor. Is she saying the entire 100k added was from one source and she didn't have that source put the money in escrow well in advance of yesterday? Why on the flyers for the event were there not any major sponsors listed? Why on...

    Vivian Villarreal got them again

    Correct, I mean even if there was a sponsor and there was a contract she still shoulders the blame for not having the $$ in escrow. But if there was a sponsor and a contract, posting who it was and a copy of said contract would go a long ways for people sympathetic to her. The lack of posting...

    Vivian Villarreal got them again

    Anyone who was at her event in Florida and chose to go to this one, I don't feel sorry for you one bit. You should have known. Anyone who hasn't experienced an event run by her in the past and thinks shes a "good person" and that automatically translates into a good promoter, I feel your pain...

    SVB cheating? Shaw/SVB Derby 9 Ball

    Good thing Melling is in tip top physical condition so that stamina wasn't an issue for him. :)

    APA Captains - throw or defer?

    Always throw first, I disagree with other posters that say they control the last 2 when throwing second. If you throw first you control who plays who in the last 2 matches. Common scenario is you have a higher rated player and a lower rated player playing the last 2 matches and so does the...

    Chris Melling's 4 rail bank shot

    He made a timing shot, a full table masse and then that 4 railer through all of the traffic to end the rack. Might be the sickest out I've ever seen.

    WPBA Reginal Tour Championships 1 hour 30 minute hard cap on match time

    So I am watching the great stream provided by Xtremepoolchallenge of the RTC event at Zingale's Billiards in Tallahassee FL and they are down to the final 32 starting today. Watching the first round matches I see that they implemented a hard stop of 1 hour and 30 minutes in order to keep things...

    You're welcome, DIY Ferrule Repair on Amazon.

    What if you don't have a pair of scissors, would hedge clippers or pruning shears work?

    Scotty Townsend stories

    He told someone that he would beat them playing with a tree limb. The guy said bet and Scotty went out behind the poolroom and took a pine sapling and whittled it down with his pocket knife for about 2 days until it was like a one piece pool cue. He didnt have a tip on it or anything like that...

    Maybe Europe is just better?

    Maybe? LOL, how is this even up for debate. Getting our nuts shot off a set here or there, or a few sessions or even a year or two can be short term luck. Getting it done day after day, year after year seems to me like its more of a trend and not an anomaly.

    Team USA Still in the Lead

    Sorry JAM but this type of attitude is exactly why we get our nuts shot in year after year. This format hasn't changed very much if at all since inception so to say that we are 11-10 when we have had next to no success lately and then say well its because of the format is a joke. You can't...

    Chezka Centeno

    If anyone thinks a 16 year old girl or boy for that matter can beat Sky, I am sure you could win an armored car full of cash.
