Pool Players Love To Be Broke!!!

JamieMcWhorter...<<The guy has paid out 2 tournaments worth more than any others before and he didn't directly take it from the players unlike most all other tours>>

Oh he DIDN'T???????? Have you ever heard of Qualifiers? Do you have ANY CLUE how much money the IPT has taken in from them??? Do the MATH!

<<the mens field use to be 512 then they open the field to double that and paid the same payouts.....Now there is a crook not KT>>

Your referring to Allen Hopkins as a CROOK is quite likely the most slanderous, wrong and DUMBEST post made in the history of this forum.

You have NO CLUE what the profit margin is for his tournament but whatever it is...let me give you a little Econ 101.

For there to be ANY pro tournaments in a free market economy...there HAS TO BE A PROFIT FOR THE PROMOTER....or there will be no tournaments AT ALL...except, of course those tournaments run by the likes of KT which are held and then NO prize money is paid out AT ALL.

What you should wish for...bubble head...is for promoters to make FANTASTIC profits while offering attractive prize money to the pros...BECAUSE THEN THERE WILL BE MORE PROMOTERS AND MORE TOURS AND MORE PRIZE MONEY!!!

Hey Partner, I think you must have a terminal case of chestnuts, or maybe they are chin-nuts, but I suspect that with you around KT must have a smile from ear to ear and no stress at all.

Seriously though, are related to KT?

This is about the dumbest thread I have ever seen! So you are saying that if someone OWED you $500,000.00 or $150,000.00 or even $50,000.00....that you wouldnt sue them if you had to to get it???? We are not talking about a gambling debt here...this is money that is legitamitely OWED!!! And if it does go to court, all "court costs" will be added to the balance for good ole KT to pick up. The bottom line is, its the principle of the whole ordeal at this point.

Your point is good, but is the money OWED by KT, or the IPT. If it is the, is the IPT a LLC, or Corporation, that could fold up before the case ever got to Court....??

Who are the Players owed by the IPT, or KT Personally. KT is a Wise old FOX, so I would assume he has done what most business man do. Form a Corporation to protect his personal $$$$$$$$$$$$

Obviously you missed his previous post.

Jamie directs all his animosity towards the players, instead of the IPT where it truly belongs. He clearly has a vested interest in the IPT.

I have always been curious about the ignore list and now is a good time to try it.

Dear James,
Good bye!

Is there a Natural Cure in that book for a brain fart?

If so, take two then go down and talk to a bunch of the players that are standing outside McDonalds looking through the windows watching the rich people eat.
