    US International 9-Ball Open Details Released

    where does the extra $15k go? I'm not playing, but I can only assume Pat and his crew don't do all this for free. $15k for his efforts to keep the best tournament in US history running with integrity and everyone gets paid doesn't seem too tough a pill to swallow.

    Dennis Orcollo vs Scott Frost - $200,000 Match Available Now!

    VOD purchased Purchased the VOD of this match today. Scott plays well but he's just not the caliber player he makes himself out to be. Does anyone know the details on this match, like who backed who for the $100k? Thats a lot of money for a guy like Frost, whereas Orcollo has that kind of...

    U.S. Open 9-Ball Opinion from Pat Fleming

    US Open 9 Ball Championships going to Matchroom Sports Hi Pat, First off, I don't know of a single person who's contributed more to the longevity, history and comradery of the game of pocket billiards than you and Accu-Stats have in the past 3 or 4 decades, so hats off to you for your...

    The Ultimate Weapon Shaft

    Meucci UW Pro shaft review Just received my custom ordered UW Pro Shaft that I ordered from the Meucci booth at the Super Billiards Expo. I'm super impressed with the turn-around, typically 2-3 months, this was like 3 weeks with a custom ring. Anyhow, I've been playing with Original Meucci's...

    Is the SBX for pool players or just a money making extravaganza?

    My apologies for not being so grammatically correct. It originally said 2007 Joss Northeast Custom, which was a beautiful 1/1 custom cue Dan Janes created for the final event of his 2007 Joss Northeast 9ball tour. I just happen to win the cue in a raffle. I ran out of characters in my...

    "What I'd like to see at Super Billiards Expo is..."

    SBX suggestions Seeing how my post yesterday has started me getting my as handed to me, I feel this may be a better post of suggestions 1) A computerized database of all the entrants who can check-in at any line and get an actual ID card printed out with a photograph like they do at the US...

    Is the SBX for pool players or just a money making extravaganza?

    I'm sure most do. I seen some booths that I couldn't figure out how they could make up the $1300 rent. And others like Omega make a killing with multiple booths but with 4 days of steady sales. The money making I was referring to was for Allen Hopkins Productions, not the vendors. Unless the...

    Is the SBX for pool players or just a money making extravaganza?

    You're right, pool struggles with image and this reminded me of a flea market with some pool events. You're also right, the name EXPO indicates it's not a invitational high end, classy Pro Players event, it is what it is. I was more disappointed with the disorganization of it and the costs...

    Is the SBX for pool players or just a money making extravaganza?

    This was my first trip to this event, although many friends have participated in the SBX for years. I must say after having been to events like the US Open and Derby City, this was by far the worst event myself and a group of friends who went ever experienced. The organization was atrocious...

    Danny DiLiberto is back in the hospital.

    BCA Induction A while back I read a bunch of posts regarding trying to convince whomever we need to convince that Danny D get inducted into the BCA Hall of Fame on shear meritorius valor alone. Does anyone know where that is at the moment? I certainly have no problem spear-heading the...
