First, I keep seeing references to a "Million-Dollar Prize Fund". But one of the BB players is a good friend and he showed me his BB contract. Here are the prize amounts: All amounts to be split among team members: 1st place team: $120,000 2nd place team: $60,000 3rd place team: $30,000 4th...

Other hotel choices There are a lot of hotels in that area. The Red Roof is right next door (discounts available on front page of AZB) and the Hampton Inn is right beside that. A Courtyard by Marriot is right across the street.

Someone needs to teach these guys to play nice. CSI sounds really pissed off. See: http://www.azbilliards.com/2000storya.php?storynum=10480

Man, their player base has really shrunk. There used to be 80-something guys on it. The only names that are recognized players on this list are Mika, Rodney, Johnny, Stevie, Shannon, Alex, Gomez, Shane and Thorsten. How can you have an international organization of just nine guys? I mean, if...

I tuned in to the live stream to listen to Jay Helfert and he is not on. They have two guys on who are (to be kind) amateurish in their commentary. Anybody know who they are and why is Matchroom not using their usual crews?

I saw the ad here yesterday and went to the site and liked what I saw. So I went to buy it and then found out it only works on PC's, not on MACs. So what's a PC? :) I thought they went away with the dinosaurs.

I have seen many of the expensive tip users quietly going back to Triangle and the other old stand-bys. No one wants to come out and say "Oh, I spent $50 on a tip and install and it was stupid." Spend that much and you tend to justify your purchase. Over-priced goods depend on their customers...

I wonder if these two greats were suffering from jet-lag. I read here once that Rempe used to get to overseas events three days ahead so his head would have time to clear before the matches began.

From Wikipedia: Chinese Taipei is the designated name used by the Republic of China (ROC), commonly known as "Taiwan", to participate in some international organizations and almost all sporting events, such as the Olympics, Paralympics, Asian Games, Asian Para Games and FIFA World Cup.

I hope it takes off and works very well. Like the poster above I hope they do not make the same mistakes that those in the past (like Galveston) have made. You cannot just pour money into something and expect it to work. You need some intelligent marketing. If this is going to begin in...

I had a pretty serious problem with Bubbles as well. So now I'm going out with her sister.

Will they be playing BonusBall? And whatever happened to that?

This just popped up on the front page: http://www.azbilliards.com/2000storya.php?storynum=10022 Any thoughts?

I thought the brackets would be updated after the 11 PM round? Anybody got the results? That round is not on the brackets.

Well, I just wonder which of these players will go with the low-cut blouse so that no one is watching their game? I think I know. Not that I have any problem with that. Lots of folks watch beach volleyball who have no clue about the rules. Who cares about rules with butts like that?

Did you guys see this story? http://www.azbilliards.com/2000storya.php?storynum=9647 It seems to me to be pretty good news. The BCA launches a program to help fund pro pool and AZB jumped right in there and donated their money to help. Everyone here is so eager to bash folks all the time...

Well, I will get flamed for this, but so be it. I am a real fan of pro pool. I truly enjoy watching the worlds best players at work. So I want the ABP to succeed. However, they got off on the wrong foot with their very first action being a boycott threat. So it is my hope that the next time...

The Philippines are forever announcing stuff that never happens. The Philippine Classic, The professional pool league that this same group touted for months and months and then it never happened, all of the empty threats that came out during the squabbles between Raya and Bugsy. The falsehoods...

Alvin Nelson makes no bones about it on Facebook. He says it is the Inside Pool Arena and that JR and Gary Patrick are working together to set up the coming matches. Then JR chimes in and says how excited he is about all this. But after that one of the partners, Gullyassey, comes on here and...

It is no big deal. I am just one fan. But I canceled my trip to Vegas when they announced CW as captain. (And could not help but notice all of the empty seats there when I caught a bit if the broadcast at my local sports bar.) And I will not support the Matchroom events until he is removed from...
