    Who is coming to the Gem City 10 Ball Classic / Southern Cue and Case Show?

    I'm almost positive this event will be streamed by Matt90. He has done some of the Seminole Pro Tour events and Jacoby Tour events, and he does a really good job.

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Hey Matt! What kind of local action you talking about? You can PM me if you don't want stuff thrown around in here? Got any good new DVD's? I think you still got a few that I don't have yet. Let me know.

    Players Walking Away From The Table During Their Match

    You won't see this happen much in pro events, but I see this way too often during regional events or weekly tournaments at pool halls. Does it bother anyone else when a player walks away from the table to go to the bar or the bathroom in the middle of a game when it's not even their shot? Or...

    Safety Play and Tie up balls?

    I certainly don't think it's "dirty pool." Just like most everyone here is saying, it's giving yourself the best opportunity to win, even if that means giving the other ball in hand. You'll see a lof the top pros use this whenever they get put in jail, but not too often amongst players who...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Hey Tikkitavi... Any thoughts about getting the UFC fight Saturday night? It doesn't come on until about 10-ish, so it shouldn't be on to interfere with the tournament too much. Just throwing it out there again...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Would it be possible to get UFC 100 on Saturday night of the event? There's three big fights that night...

    Who is coming to the Gem City 10 Ball Classic / Southern Cue and Case Show?

    Any word on any more qualifying tournaments coming up for those interested? Still looking to get a ring game or little midnight madness tournament this Friday or Saturday night (or any other times)?

    Congratulations to James Roberts

    Good shooting James. That's pretty impressive, whether you get ball in hand or not. I think the craziest thing is that after 50 games, it came down to literally one ball that was worth $2k. I guess you didn't end up going and checking out the Cheetah, huh?

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Why the laugh Chris? I think you're 100% right, and I wish I played that good. Does this mean we could be expecting you? Good luck in Florida.

    What's the best or worst moves you have ever seen over a pool match !

    There used to be these two guys that always hung out in the same pool rooms, but they never really cared for each other. Player A says he knows a guy who will go off, but he plays too good for him. So he says he'll take player B to him, and they can split the cash. Player B meets the guy...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Well, I was leaving myself out of the list, but, now that you mention it, I'll be trying my best to beat some of these champions. And that includes you 'Vette! We can play some more, but the spot is gonna change!

    Shooting with one eye

    I hope your friend stays optimistic. One person that comes to mind is Kim Davenport. He was one of the best players in the world, and he suffered from an accident playing golf where he lost his eye about 6 or 7 years ago. I know it was tough for him specifically because he was used to playing...

    Quitting while you are ahead

    The main reason I wouldn't ever quit winner is because you've already made money. Basically, you're betting their own money against them. Even though no one likes to play for hours and hours to break even, why not keep playing because you haven't invested any money and have the chance of...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    Kim Davenport is taking the sign-ups, and, if I remember correctly, the names he gave me (as of two weeks ago) are himself, Johnny Archer, Corey Deuel, John Schmidt, Hillbilly, and alot of the players who follow the Seminole Tour. I know it sounds like a small list of players right now, but I'm...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    I spoke with Rik (Tikkitavi), and he said that he is going to try and have a few qualifiers next Friday night if anyone is interested. He's also talking about having a winner take all/midnight madness type tournament if people are interested. Post, PM, or call if anyone wants more information...

    "Winner breaks" rule hurts the game

    A good local player told me the story of the greatest set he's ever witnessed... Cliff Joyner was playing Rudolpho Luat in the U.S. Open when it was races to 13. It wasn't even a finals match or anything. It was just a standard match. Luat wins the lag and the first break. Then, he proceeds...

    GEM CITY 10BALL CLASSIC July 10-12.

    The room isn't brand new, but it is kind of "newly acquired." Kim and Johnny bought it not too long ago, but the room has been around for quite a few years. And it is pretty nice with around 40 nine footers, full bar, TV's everywhere... it's one of my favorite places to play. I'm real...

    Gem City 10 Ball Classic

    I'm really surprised at the lack of exposure that this tournament is getting on these forums. I think that the money is great for a regional tournament, and I think those putting on the tournament will do a stand-up job. I really hope that the field gets filled, and I'm already practicing to...

    The GSBT - Jan. 10-11, 2009 - Diamond Billiard Club - Chatt., TN

    I'm sure it will be another great turnout for another great tournament at one of the best pool rooms in the country! The food there is amazing! I'm going to try my best to make it up there. Out of curiousity, how much money is added to this tournament?

    Best player in Alabama?

    I don't think they are the best players in Alabama, but David T. and Tim O. both play pretty sporty at times. Tim's break is powerful!
