Several years ago when we were there, we heard of alot of professional pickpocketers getting wallets from the back pockets of some of the players as well as other guests at the Riv. I'm sure it is still known to happen.

Wow, we agree with that! We stayed there one year, but never again. Our friends owned some condos just on the west side of Orleans, so we either stayed there or at their house. We were told the Orleans is (or was a few years ago) the best place to play machines & tables, that it was the most...

Thanks for the info! Now I know more about Tommy than I did before. Gabe said there is another tourney this week in Houston after the expo.....so I'll have to check with him on that one! lol Then he is coming here to visit me a couple weeks later. (actually because there's another tourney near...

So this tournament must be held in his own backyard, or nearby? Why does he not play pro tours?

Thanks, I'll tell him. He did say he's won it twice in a row now, and the only player to win it 3 times. At least he booked a winner, it's been a little while. I've heard of Tommy a few times, but not that familiar with him myself. I hear he's very good too. I don't know how close it was, maybe...

Gabe called today, he won it. (yes!) I believe he said Tommy Sanders (?) got 2nd. That;s as far as we got about the tournament.

Like I said, I'm not that forum savvy as to who all is who, but my first reaction of the original post was mixed between either something shocking happened with the tour to have that posted...... then my next reaction was maybe it was an April Fool's joke, (as there was one on another...

I personally side with her. For no other reason than it was such a negative comment about KT & IPT which to me seemed shocking to possibly be coming from her hubby. :confused: Maybe the person who posted can change to more of a fan name. I hope she comes back to the forums sometime. :)

Nice to meet you too! I assumed that was your real name, glad you use it. I slowly figure out some. Gabe knows I use this name, he lurks quite a bit. I don't know if he's posted yet with whatever lurker name he's come up with, but I know it isn't gabe or babe or anything close. Probably some...

Hey John, thanks for the introduction! I've been trying to keep a list of people on here, screennames vs real names, but it gets difficult for someone like me who doesn't post that often, and I often misplace it. When I saw a previous post weeks ago by the person being discussed, my first...

By the time I typed my message, and hit 'send', it wouldn't go through, so I assumed it was deleted. I was just going to say that I am one of those that isn't very 'forum savvy', as Timberly had said, so I can understand why MA responded as such. Although I am really gabesmom, I think I'll...

Although I don't play, my son Gabe does. I think he's been known to play high stakes at times, and I know he's pretty spiritual about many things. My sister (Gabe's aunt) & I just wrote a new Christian book and it mentions sports & pool, and is about spirituality. The overall message is...

Sounds like they're getting ready to rumble! Son did give me a holler when he arrived there with a humorous travel related story. I hope all the players have a great time and wish them the best of luck. Thanks for the post Vagabond!

Will do, as soon as I can get the guys around here on the homefront to agree with me on just what amount is a large sum of money. We've disagreed for years. Thanks!

Will there be brackets on this anywhere? (Also, sorry to hear about Danny Medina while there, hope he is getting better!)

Is there supposed to be sound? I'm not getting any. Thanks!

I've been surfing all day for some good deals, & you may want to check out prices on www.travelocity.com , they had the very best prices I could find, especially if you lump air & hotel. (they offer many different hotels, or you can even put in your choice of hotel, such as venetian) It got...

back to IPT travel & lodging expenses I've been surfing all day for some good deals, & you may want to check out prices on www.travelocity.com , they had the very best prices I could find, especially if you lump air & hotel. (they offer many different hotels, or you can even put in your choice...

Thanks for the compliment! I know he's committed & giving it his best as many other players are. And he has wonderful support out there by so many people in the business and from many that love the game. Can't ask for much more than that. I hope the IPT continues too, it does look promising for...

Yes, I agree with you. But many of them didn't even know there were pool matches on tv, and are now watching many of them, discovering and/or learning about pool. Don't know if that necessarily promotes the game in that arena, but the players make for entertainment for many of the people.
