    Earl, Corey, Dennis and the Mosconi Cup

    With already three names announced and two spots left for the upcoming Mosconi Cup XX, one has to assume the best players in the last 19 installments of Matchroom's flagship show will come back... So I'm asking, who do you think would be the best team for the USA, and will be filling the last...

    CSI sponsors Mike Dechaine at Steinway Classic

    Mark, while I've heard many complains about Mike from third persons, I've been around him at tournaments for the past three years and I also worked on special occasions with his sponsor Predator, for photoshoots. All I've ever seen is a great individual, very smart and very focused, both on...

    Larry Chiborak???

    Mark's late fees where a subject when BB announced they would not run in July. All the BB players who hadn't entered the tournament decided to do so. There were MANY complains outside of facebook. We never heard as many complains the previous years because the same players paid in advance...

    Larry Chiborak???

    How about having a little memory, just a few months ago when we had these threads about calendar issues, and BB representatives explained how it was going to change the face of the earth by providing solid payments to the pro players? - Remember Greg had a lot of pros missing from the Southern...

    Earl and the Mosconi

    - Sky's been making a documentary about Earl as part of the 20 years celebrations. Nothing more. It was never announced that Earl was 100% on the team, but that he was part of the history of the cup. Different thing. - Teams are not 100% picked yet. It's the 20 years anniversary so it will be a...

    Bonus Ball is Alive and will be kicking ...

    You're still trying to make sense of all this? :wink: Don't you see the bigger picture? Don't you? I must admit that the timing of the ABP Press release stating they will escrow the funds of the US Open after the BB debacle is just impeccable. How about another ABP PR about escrowing the...

    Kamui

    Absolutely not true. They even have a new tip launched recently, the "Clear" tip. Great product. They also have the Beta Chalk cubes, more than a third larger than the "old" chalk. Feel free to contact their US Office: http://www.kamuitips.com/contact/

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    It worked a few minutes ago. I guess they're working on the schedule or else.

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    There are two sides to this; Nathan is really talented and created more stuff for WBPL than anyone else could probably have. With the crew they had, they created an exceptional production, and the website is also looking very very good. Judging from his talent and work, there's no question he...

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    Yes it's just you :) It's still online. But the countdown and schedule don't reflect the latest news.

    world cup of pool/world poolmasters

    From a PR on the WPM: "Stars such as reigning World 9 Ball champion Darren Appleton, two-time US Open champion Shane Van Boening, Mosconi Cup MVP Chris Melling, as well as defending champion Karol Skowerski have already indicated they will be competing in the Masters.*...

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    Probably by not re-opening it.

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    We've covered these things already. Past numbers have shown a good stream PPV gets somewhere between 400 and 700 people buying it. A new thing such as BB would be closer to 100/150. When they claimed to have a server overload because of 10,000 on day 1 for the Free stream, it was probably down...

    So where is the Bonus Ball annoucement?

    If the end result is growing interest and making people play the game more, sell it as a show or a sport, whatever you prefer. The key is: do people from all ages and genders feel like driving to the next pool hall after they've watched your show and pretend they're pro players ? It's how...
