    What is the IPT's angle now

    To me they have gone from putting on over the top ornate 100 man events paying millions to match-ups with a couple of guys for a few grand streamed free. Im happy KT hung around and paid most everyone but what is he aiming for now. To me from his point of view, it would be "why bother?" at this...

    Matchroom throws out Pots and Pans Rogoff

    Sadly, during the finals of the Masters, Bunny Rogoff who many of you have seen in his Charlie Chaplin outfit at the majors was tossed out of the arena. He was not in his CC outfit. It was pretty odd as a Matchroom employee saw him looking for a seat and invited him to take a seat that was...

    ESPN-Too Close Close-Ups

    Im just watching ESPN and I have to say enough of the Super close-ups of the players faces. The Xtra close shots do not provide any benefits. The players expressions are clear without these shots where one has the opportunity to examine the skin imperfections of the players. At that distance...

    Cases on Tables

    Im not going to get all upset, I am just going to say to everyone "keep your damn cases off the table". And I'm not talking the pool table. In two places recently almost everyone had their cases up on one of the few tables where you put your shit while you play. Cases should not occupy this...

    Why no California Tour

    They are tripping over each other trying to create new tours on the East Coast. There gotta be decent money in it for the Tour Ops. So the question is, why in our most populous state has no one stepped up and created a tour? I know Hard Times gets 90 players, some of whom drive 2-3 hours for...

    Book Writer ? Joe Ment... at DCC

    This guy approached me - took my name and said he was writing a book- That he was a protege of Titanic Thompson and would let me know when the book came out. I guess it must be about various 'hustles' but I am not familiar with this fellow. Anyone know anything?

    Showboat Joe

    A rather realistic picture of an old hustler I'm afraid. PS-NO one better jump in the air and do splits if they make the 9 on me. http://www.statesman.com/news/content/news/stories/local/12/24/1224showboatjoe.html

    No Pros at the BCA (Vegas) next year?

    I heard that somewhere or maybe it was just no WPBA at Vegas in 2008? Did anyone hear that?

    Parica's record vs Souquet/Busstamante

    Someone tried to tell me tonight that Parica had played Bustamante 13 times in tournies and Busta won ONE time. He also said that Souquet had only beaten Parica once. Both these stats seem highly unlikely. Anyone have any evidence to refute or support these stats? Thanks.

    Rule Change Needed

    ....I've seen this happen over and over in tournaments. Five games into a set a player will be presented with a shot that is best addressed by a jump. You see the guy walk 5 tables over and borrow a jump cue from one of his friends- I have even seen them borrow a jump cue from their opponent...

    You make the call!bbb

    You make the call. The match is on the shot clock. Player A breaks and makes nothing but starts acting like he did- He gets his playing stick. Player B notices whats going on and the runout is real tough so he figures he will wait for player A to shoot and call foul. Player A is taking his...
