In 2010 it was held in Clifton, NJ, and sanctioned. They had regained the sanctioning after Predator added extra money to meet the prize fund expected by the WPA. Oliver won and Stephan had a decend title defending campaign, losing in the quarters to Huidji. In 2009 the lack of sanctioning...

Stephan had to leave for the Philippines were he was playing the World Cup of Pool, and he booked his flight at the latest possible time. He ended up sharing a cab with CW on the way to the airport (I believe Charlie was going to Asia too at the time)

Olympic format test Because of the IOC wanting to decrease the number of athletes, as well as events, it would be impossible to go with the current World Games format. The WCBS came up with a Team format that will briefly be tested in an exhibition in Paris on march 11-12: Three players per...

Hey everyone, CSI here at the Rio is hosting a challenge match tonight, and we're making a small Q&A session with both Shane and Thorsten. If you have questions you would like to ask them go ahead and comment below this picture on facebook...

You're absolutely right; I was pointing out details and what I believe can be changed. There won't be a pro tour put together overnight in the USA. Making a ranking with a PBT-like tour would be much easier, too. My point was that I don't feel like the USA are very far away from an MC...

This is absolutely untrue when you look at the event's format. 9-ball race to 5, alternate break... It's anybody's game. Two major things that have turned the tide since 2006: - Johan Ruijsink and his ability to gather, focus and prepare a bunch of ego-centric world champions (I'm saying this...

The Captains have been named in previous PRs this year. Mark Wilson will again be in charge for the USA, so if Johnny A. makes the team again, he won't be captain.

I've been seeing this from the inside for quite a long time and it's not as one-sided as you might think. USA have enough players able to beat anyone on a 9 footer, playing a race to 5 in 9-ball with alternate break. What Johan Ruijsink brought in 2006 was a structure, with discipline and...

Let's leave it at the fact that in the same sentence, you claim there were no proposal, and talk about Barry making one. I'm done arguing, you're the best, we're all clowns. :thumbup:

This is absolutely not true. Your high profile gives you no right to lie. Are you aware of 100% of all proposals that went through their offices in the last 10 years? ESPN has been given proposals about pool in the last 10 years. People are not waiting for you CJ. As for the rest of your...

Sometimes the system will show two level at once, but the highest level (Gold) is taken into account. We have to manually select the display in those instances. I just flipped your badges to Gold only. Thanks for supporting our site!

Thanks for supporting us! All these silver members don't know what they are missing :) If it wasn't for our advertisers and gold members, we'd have no ressources to run this site. We appreciate all of your help and we're happy to provide the best platform for your classifieds and your...

There are still a few glitches here and there. You can switch to full screen mode instead of zooming if you want. We're seeing the fewer amount of bugs using Chrome on either Mac or PC. For those using Yosemite on Mac, Safari 8.0 won't display the fullscreen button...

We're so happy to finally unveil one of the biggest project we have been working on in the past years... HUGE Thanks to Conrad Burkman and Jerry Forsyth for making this work :wink: http://www.azbilliards.com/news/stories/11543-azbilliards-launches-online-national-billiard-news-archive/...

As I'm more than aware of a few things about this subject, let me just try to give you some pointers about how this works: - Universe is a sponsor of the event, as are Diamond, Aramith, Simonis and Predator. - They provide the shirts for the players as part of an agreement with the tournament...

We've had server issues since yesterday. Mike is looking into it, it should be solved soon.

Thanks for mentioning it. I added it at the end of the article. Looking at the hourly stats, there's less than 5% of the audience who accessed the live page after the match was over. That's still "a bunch" but not compared to the people who followed it live :D

Could you get your facts straight before being so aggressive? Shane played in 3 10-Ball WPA World Championships (2008, 2009, 2011) were the races were 9, then 11 and 13 in the final, so comparable to the US Open this year. He placed 9th (2008), 65th (2009), and 17th (2011). Can your 7-year...

Hi Donny, Mike & Jerry are travelling back from the Open. Last year we published an infographic on facebook with overall figures from the US Open. We'll make one this year as well...

How is earning more money than other winning a world title? Please elaborate :)
