Nice job! Sounds like you are playing great! Keep it up.

IP did cover the Galveston event and it will be in the next issue. Since the event ended on Sept. 20th magazines typically print a few weeks ahead of the publish date. I know their ad submission deadline is the first of the month on the previous month, so most of the content for the October...

I'm not a WPBA touring pro yet, but may be after the next WPBA event in Florida. Either way though, as of your first WPBA event (exempt or non-exempt), the WPBA owns your competition media rights. You sign off on this in your first event. I assume this is done in case you make a TV round then...

Major title or not, she's still a very recognizable name and face in pool. She's a very classy woman and disciplined worker. Amazing how sharp her game is for how little time she has played. I am VERY sure she will have a major title soon and pool could use more players with her level of class...

I saw this flyer on a facebook page with this text underneath "Mosconi Cup 2009 artwork 2009 © ASWANDESIGN Mosconi Cup logo 2006 © ASWANDESIGN" Does this mean these are 4 of the Americans playing?

Thanks Royce! There are only a couple of the other candidates that I have met and the ones I know, I think will be great assets to the WPBA as well. As far as my experience though, I certainly don't have the pool industry experience that Mark does, but I do have quite a bit of corporate...

I'll probably be there if I have had time to rest before then.

Congrats to Darren! This is very much deserved. I know he's worked very hard over the past few years.

As Joey said, I personally think the stream should (and probably will) remain free. One thing to mention is that in this case, the stream and the tournament were not separate things, they were both funded from the same place. So even though one company is providing the stream and being paid by...

I was on the crew this week and I am fairly sure that this info is not correct. I have been told that at least some of the final days will be rebroadcasted on Versus and other networks. Those TV schedules I believe are available on the World Classic website.

On right now are Larry Nevel and Johnny Archer on the one-loss side of the 8-Ball event playing for 5th place. 7:00PM CST Francisco Bustamante vs. Earl Strickland 10-Ball on the one-loss side 9:30PM CST Mika Immonen vs. Shane Van Boening 10-Ball winners' bracket match, final 4 of the winners'...

SVB has this table at his home poolhall, not his house...and with his travel schedule, he only goes home once every few months.

Nice shooting this weekend, Chris! The Monday of the Texas Open (and consequently Tuesday morning) is always a grind, I had no doubt you would be the last one standing. Congrats!

I am not by any means talking on behalf of the WPBA so I may be misquoting something here. But I did speak to a board member about this particular Mezz event. At the beginning of every year, all players sign off their media rights at the first WPBA event (American and foreign players). This...

Hey Trigger, can you get an update on Zaid Thweib's match? I think he was playing in the 1:30 round but probably not on the TV table.

I think some of the European players are passing on this because they may be playing in the World Cup of Pool in the Philippines that starts next week or this weekend as well, followed by 2 events in Europe so that would be a lot of traveling. I know of some friends who are not attending because...

That's right, Ray. He said that he doesn't gamble but it's not because he's against it. He just doesn't feel comfortable enough here to be able to make good games for himself. But watch out, all the Houston boys seem to be trying to take him under their wing in that department. He's a smart...

That's a great point. I believe the host locations pay a fee to host the tournament. I don't know the specifics but that is most definitely why the events seems to be in random places. Since these smaller, out-of-the-way casinos are hosting many of the events, I can't imagine that the fee is...

Great! One more thing to distract me from work!

In all the pages of arguements on this thread...this is perhaps the most entertaining comment on here :)
