I just got into shooting 1 year ago, before then basically knew nothing about the professional circuit or tournaments. but now after watching all of the main tournaments on you tube and streaming them, man the pros have it hard.
I watched max get smoked by bustemonte, Corey dual get smoked, and now Darrin Appleton just lost big time. and im trying to figure out how these guys make money?
is there really a green room where they gamble before the tournaments( like in the movie color of money), or do they get there second loss in the loser brackets and just go home?
do they hang out with each other afterwards and have a few drinks?
I have watched all of these guys on you tube, and they are fantastic on you tube in there practice videos, and they lose. I know everyone loses, with only one winner in a tournament, but how do they make a living????
(not trying to be a dickhead, just trying to figure out the life of a pro pool player)
