    Issues Blowing Up At The Tornado Open

    Wonder how many of the players have stiffed others ? One famous player has children but isn't with their mother. See him running all over the country playing pool , nice clothes , new chicks , i'd bet he hasn't and isn't paying child support because he isn't making enough money.I could be wrong...

    Good Old Days Owning Poolroom

    Some people are the kind who don't want any responsibility. Think your describing our society. Seen many posts here lamenting the lack of quality poolrooms in their area and if one opens up they seldom patronize it. Showing up once every couple of weeks and wondering what hours do they have...

    Streaming Players & Problems

    Thx for the reply. In lean times such as now i think the players deserve some kind of compensation if they appear on the stream , a free meal , or a night at a hotel , especially if the streamer is charging to see the tape of the matches , either online or selling dvd's.

    Streaming Players & Problems

    I have streamed thousands of hours of pool and much of it with no compensation and just laying out money every two years for equipment which thankfully in the past people contributed to. Now I generate some revenue which I take some of that money and upgrade after about 2 years or so. If an...

    Money taken off the calcutta without any prior announcement, is that normal?

    [I][and $3200 in green fees /I] I was lost at this . No it wasn't a WPA event , but what does the WPA provide for their sanctioning fee ?Do you know the overhead for a poolroom ? Did they break even ? What would be the motivation for someone to host a pool tournament but to make money.

    Money taken off the calcutta without any prior announcement, is that normal?

    Wonder if the TD is the owner ? WPA charges a sanctioning fee , wonder what you get for that ? I understand pool rooms are in business to make money and I'm sure the entire place was used to host the tournament . I doubt Skinny Bob's is a 501-3c. It was played on 9 footers , wonder if that...

    ABR Special Report - French Press Conference

    I've not followed this closely but it seems these are 1 on 1 matches ,the players are getting a fee to play and it is a win win for all involved except for the fiction of the amount in the middle. If players really want to play for money they can do it without a camera there , so who approaches...
