You can find Jimmy Mataya at Rum Runners Tropicana on some Tuesday nights in Las Vegas. Still plays league pool. Lyn

Andrew, This is just continuous verbal masterbation. Please pick up the phone and dial 518 - 356 - 7163. That's the number of the Joss Northeast Tour and Mike Zuglan. Obviously you enjoy kicking the dead horse even after House Pro said enough. Speak directly with him but please, please stop...

Fats, For several years, BCAPL allowed a player to pay one sanction fee in their primary league. They could then play in other BCAPL leagues and the $15 fee was sufficient. For the past few years, BCAPL requires a player to pay a sanction fee for each league whose league number is not the...

Seriously RJ? If I started a thread saying your branded chalk was garbage and a rip off without ever seeing it let alone using it, you would be OK with that because I have a right to do so? Really? If I tried it and disliked it, that would be something different. We see comments like that...

This is my final post in this thread. Andrew, my guess is, if you had started a thread titled "Unfair Tournament Policy" or even "Unfair Turning Stone Policy" instead of "Turning Stone - Rip Off", more posters may have come to your side of the discussion. You immediatedly set off most...

Guys, My 25 year old post Runde Schon has two original shafts. Play with one of them daily. Both are straight as an arrow. Had a new ferrule installed many years ago. On my zillionth tip. Shaft now measures just slightly under 13mm. With proper care and maintenance, a quality shaft should...

Desiree, Was so nice meeting you at Griff's in Vegas. We spoke about the "Turtle" rack I wished to try. Anyway, sincerely hope everything goes well for you and Oscar. Hope one of the pool rooms in Vegas hosts a MWST event. Would like to play. Tired of watching on the stream! Lyn

From your first post on this thread, you have claimed you are the one with morals. Accusing someone of stealing from players based on second hand information puts YOUR morals into question. If this information is true, have the players in question post themselves. Or are they afraid of being...

Yep, #99 told me so! Think about it, does Andrew have first hand knowledge of MZ's policy or not. He has never played at the Turning Stone. How does he know as a fact what Mike's policy is? Has he contacted MZ and discussed it directly? He only knows what his friends told him. Yet...

I'll give you one good reason. YOU are not the aggrieved person. YOU have no business complaining about something YOU have no FIRSTHAND knowledge of. Only second hand hearsay. Your friends told you about it. If THEY are so aggrieved, have THEM complain to Mike. THEY can even complain here...

Thanks JMD, forgot to mention that. If the OP thinks it is diffficult to make a ball on the break with a template, wait till they try without the template! Talk about a crap shoot! Different racks. Sometimes on every table in a tournament. Ouch! Lyn

DCP, It's not the table. Move the cue ball. Change the angle of your break. Move the cue ball forward and back closer to the rail. Try a heavier break cue. Try a lighter break cue. Anything but changing tables. Don't remember what type of cloth you are using but if it's too nappy, may be...

Steve, If you asked Mike directly, I'm absolutely sure he would say I'm NOT his friend. Actually he does not like me. We have had many disagreements in the past. Despite that situation, I've played in way over 100 Joss Northeast events including many TS events. Never won one. I've already...

kissed, I'm sure right now Mike Zuglan is shaking in his boots over Cleary's accusations. Notice Andrew never played at TS? Yet he feels he has the right to question MZ's business plan. Wonder how many of the posters who joined Cleary ever played at TS. I have. Many times. One trip will...

Andrew, It is not idiotic. You are calling out an individual who has the respect of the entire pool community because YOUR value system is at odds with his on ONE of his business practices. On the scale of justice, Andrew Cleary or Mike Zuglan, which way will the scale tilt? Lyn

Turning Stone has been a Mosconi points earning event for several years. JB and every other pro player knows this is the case from January 1st to the date when the team is chosen. If you know this is the case, enter early and adjust your schedule accordingly. Might have to give up a gravy...

Wonder what you do or did for a living? Never, ever in your past did you ever take advantage of a situation to further your needs and wants? NEVER? During my 38 years in the consumer electronics business times came up when I had to decide between my store and a customer. Sometimes I chose...

Excuse me Andrew, who are you to question my morals? Because YOU do not agree with someone elses business practices does not give you the moral high ground. You are just another mortal like me and thousands of other AZ posters. Mike Zuglan has done more for the game of pool than you will ever...

Andrew, Every Turning Stone event has been held on the dates listed. Every TS event has been full at 128. Every player who cashed in any of the events has been paid immediately. In the pool world of today, it's a miracle. You won't ever play in a TS event. I can understand that. You and...

Just for those of you who do not READ the posts but merely scan them, please look at and read the poster for the Turning Stone XXVIII event. Anyone notice Diamond is NOT, not listed as a sponsor of the event. Diamond supplies the tables at a contracted cost to the event promoters. Please be...
