    $24,500 Added US Bar Table Championship Feb. 22-28, 2010 REGISTRATION UP AND READY

    Yeah, I went last year and the room was about $20/night....looks like the rates are still really low ($18/night weekdays and $40/night on weekends). I wish I could go but I can't get off of work at all in February.

    pro players not paid

    It's happened more than twice...at least the past 3 years I have had players personally tell me that their checks have bounced. As long as this is a BCA ranking event, players will participate. I'm not arguing that this isn't a good tournament, I said that building the longevity and prestige...

    pro players not paid

    I'm willing to bet that him admitting to this "mistake" had more to do with damage control and maybe even a plea for more sponsorship for next year than good character. I will give him credit for having built what is arguably one of the most prestigious titles in men's pool but make no...

    pro players not paid

    Sadly, it seems like this is a becoming common practice for many promoters so the players aren't as frustrated and suprised when it takes them months to get paid. I know of a couple that are still missing money from him for this year and this is not the first year this has happened for these...

    Ok, DCC, Who is coming?

    I'll be coming but just for the 9ball part. Can't take off of work that long. And instead of just buying you a drink beav, let's play for one :)

    Behnke familys new pool hall Dakota Cue Club, Sioux Falls, SD. coming soon.

    Congrats on the opening soon! I know you guys have put a lot of hard work into this place. It looks beautiful! I may even come to check it out sometime, probably not until the summer though, South Dakota is just too damn cold in the Winter for us Texas girls :)

    According to Sigel, he is going to play many events this year. He talks about it in one of his interviews. All of the videos (interviews and tournament clips) can be found on the website at www.predator10ball.com/spain2010/videos/. I also want to mention that we did not have commentating at the...

    WPBA, only 2 tour stops listed for 2010?

    This is true...From what I understand, there are many aspects to the contract for host locations to meet. In my experience working with hotels and convention centers, you have to do a space and food and beverage contract about a year out or more. But I would imagine this is already done for...

    My reflections on the Mosconi Cup

    I think in the U.S. it will only air on Fox Sports and the air times/dates are different based on the region you are in.

    My reflections on the Mosconi Cup

    Rodney showed a lot of class this week. Even though he was not picked for the team he didn't show any hard feelings about it. He went out to Vegas anyway and supported his friends and old teammates. He was rooting on the guys and strategizing with Nick, giving tips on things he saw throughout...

    Shane's Last Match

    I'm not 100% sure but I think the MVP is chosen based on wins. I heard someone in the press room say that if Johnny won his last match he would have gotten MVP (would have given him a perfect record) and if he lost then it went to Hatch. I love Johnny, but I wanted Hatch to win it, he really...

    Anybody going to the Mosconi Cup?

    Come on now, Roy! Such an instigator! Because I'm working the event, I will refrain from expressing my predictions.

    Anybody going to the Mosconi Cup?

    I'm heading out there today. For anyone that hasn't gone to this event before, it's a fun and exciting event. Check out some pics from last year at this link: http://picasaweb.google.com/Matchroom.Sport Since this is on U.S. soil and last year the European fans were very involved in...

    What is the "REAL" Reason no US Organization?

    Pool needs a reality show. The average non-pool playing public doesn't give a damn about the game. The most interesting thing about pool (to an outsider) are the characters involved in the sport. Showcase the lives of those players more than what is actually happening on the table and you'll...

    Any Way to Watch Mosconi Cup in the US?

    I know we will be producing lots of things for the website to have daily coverage and scoring but I don't think streaming is going to be available. I will check with Matchroom to confirm and if that is correct, I'll get info on why. If I had to guess I would assume it's similar to the same...
