That's great that you are supporting these girls, Jim! I know they very much appreciate all that you do for them. I saw Nes play last year and she is a class act, as is Borana. Nes is quickly making a name for herself. Good Luck to both of you ladies! See you next week :)

Fix at Bellagio is awesome if you want to go to a restaurant at a casino. There is also a place that looks like a hole in the wall but has great food called Golden Steer. It is a very old steakhouse that is off the strip but I think is popular with the locals. Both are good steakhouses with...

The players are not paid yet because they don't have a final finish yet. They will be paid once they place (which will be at the next tournament) and their travel to the next tournament will be paid for. The weather made the promoters have to take an entire day to relocate tables to the new...

Happy Birthday Stu! You are agreat asset to the pool industry!

But if you make it to the National event your hotel accommodations are paid for, you just have to cover your travel.

I ALWAYS check my cues but put them inside a hard bottomed rolling bag I have from Samsonite. I don't check them by themselves in just your cue case because weather could hurt them and that is not covered by insurance. FYI though for anyone afraid of the cues being stolen by security, your...

This is played on 9fts. You do NOT have to be an APA player to compete. Non-APA players have to pay a higher entry fee, which is usually like $10 more, very nominal. This is not a format where you can just buy into the second part of the tournament, you HAVE TO play in a qualifier in order to...

Just a note to clarify, not all Predator events are associated with Dragon Promotions and I doubt the Brazil tournament will be run by Dragon. Usually Predator partners with local organizations who have a large presence in that country. Many of their Asian events happen to be Dragon promotions...

Haha... I don't think I can hang with Jay!

Ha! Don't pull me into this :) I'm just going for the show. Plus, I would never gamble with any of my close girlfriends. How about a friendly challenge match with Team Gambler girls and KOD?

I like the way you guys think ;)

Thanks Tim! I hope I will make it out to some of the Gambler Tour stops sometime.

They just posted it today. I couldn't find a picture of you and me together though, we must remedy that next time we are together...we can get one in our Gambler Clothing gear :) http://www.poolplayers.com/newsmgr/templates/?a=180&z=6

I am still interested in commentating. I'm not playing many events in Vegas this year. Would be fun to commentate with Chris, I don't think we have ever been in the booth together. Yes, I am a friend of Borana's but I have also watched or played against Melinda during at least 5 tournaments...

I know! I actually talked about us meeting at this tournament in my APA article that is going out this week. I still wish they would go back to races to 9 (or at least 7) for the women after the qualifier stages.

I played in this a few years and it's definitely worth playing. You will meet lots of great people and even though there is no money awarded it's a prestegious title to have. I am excited that they are finally holding a qualifier in Austin where I live! I can't play but I will definitely go by...

Gosh, I go to bed and miss like 10 pages of posts...I guess I am going to miss a whole lot with the tournaments going on this weekend.

You guys are right, that was an unfair generalization. You guys were very nice to her and there were a few others she named that she loved. But in several matches and even sometimes outside of the matches there were a few people that were very rude to her, which is not at all what that tour is...

HI Hilary! Missed you in SD but I was not around much there this year. I know Melinda is also a very smart woman. I was really only speaking to the "why them?" comments about KOD getting a lot of sponsor and media attention. I've met Melinda a few times at tournaments and she's a great...

Btw, congrats to Olga for her MTV.com exposure this week! http://www.mtv.com/videos/interview/ludacris/503246/ludacris-holds-his-own-on-the-pool-table.jhtml#id=1635777
