90% of the field is pool players lol..

he might only play 8 of the 25 :-)

for sure it was advantage .. was case of learning the equipment and balls because huge difference.. i was 30 when IPT Started so mainly 8ball 2006.. 2007 spent lot of time playing money games Philippines and USA. All this helped me learn quicker. 2008 i started to play tournament circuit full...

Fair Point.. :smile:

not enough time.. the top 16 seeded players should get the bye based on certain rankings etc

I Play Full Time Pool so i think I've got a idea lol. Not really any dead money in a 48 player field paying $350 For a US Open Title. If the field 256 like us open 9 ball was at one time then of course that generates more prize fund and as you say lot of dead money BUT THEY STILL PAID $600...

but its Limited to 48 players ? world 14.1 the same and gets the players... Sure a us open Title you would not have a problem reaching that number if the entry fee is 500 lets say.. most of us are in for a few k anyway during that period with sbe so few extra hundred dollars not going to hurt...

all great news so happy for these events mark.. but i think the one pocket should be same as 14.1 600 entry and same prize money then its a good wage :-) 5k winner looks poor for a us open..just my opinion D

thanks for dinner pal legend you are.:wink:

agree :smile:

you can draw a contract up and sign with you pal :grin:

cost a lot of money to get pool on espn lol.

lets not forget the guy put roof under his head ,paid all his flights,entries,feed him give him spending money, send money to his family... prob give him bonuses.. setting him exhibitions up coaching,money matches..heard got him a green card .. so its not a terrible deal but 10 year contract...

I'm my own man i don't have managers or backers i do everything myself.. he just had a option to stake me in money matches if i pleased.. was more a fun thing for me as he wanted to stake me... and he spoke about some team match he was trying to set up on espn.. so i had nothing to lose by...

not taking luck out of the game.. just changing the break that favors the top players massively .. this is the better fix for the game and all the players and sportsmanship.. it will clean up the game

Well golds the ultimate challenge and a outside sport playing tithe same rules all the time. Can't even compare the two .. Compare pool to snooker same rules every time and money and tv and viewing figures are miles above pool. Darts another let's say bar sport same rules same dart board...

[B]DCC9 i only played because i was already there.But the rack/break didn't cost me my opponent played Really Good. Plus like i said there is no events to practice for now playing these rules only turning stone which i don't care if i play or not like i said. .. We play the rules us players...
