I'm talking action wise.

Haw Mr. Action lived up to his name there? What big matches have occured?

He put Morra in action early on against Jeffrey Ignacio playing 10 ball even. I guess he needed to lighten his pockets because that's a terrible game for John. I forget who else he backs, refresh my memory?

I don't think the rest of them gambled but not sure. The Ko's were supposed to play Bergman/Woodward doubles but it didn't happen. Big Ko was sick the night it was supposed to happen & then I guess the derby schedule got in the way.

Maybe he thought better of putting anymore money in play with the Shane/Dennis match coming up soon.

Love Morra's game, but from what I've seen and heard, dude is just horrible in money matches.

I don't think I've ever heard of him winning one against a top tier player.

I still wouldn't want to play him though.

I was there all week on 3rd shift during the majority of the action. The Frenchman seemed to be more bark than bite. They made a few 1-3k sets I saw but nothing like some of the other matches.

I need photo of this guy. I did t stare at the steam long enough to remember his face.

Fatboy is here in Louisville. Maybe French should get with him. Team Fatboy vs Team French!

they could show each other dufflebags full of cash & claim they will flip a coin for it all but never actually do anything.

If his business model is just based on money matches and winning from bets on rail, he will close shop soon. Throw in some peanuts earnings from stream , he will be crying to his bank. He needs something synergistic like TV deal with ESPN or those sports channels

I thought I heard Dennis was in a bunch of action, losing banks to Billy Thorpe and 1P to Richie Rich.

But I could be wrong.

Dennis played Billy last year. Not this year. He never played richie that I saw or heard of.

Orcullo played Shannon Murphy and won hill-hill. Murphy needed two and Orcullo needed one.

I observed French during derby and he seemed like a total jack off.

Me and Oscar were walking into the casino and frenchy sees Oscar and says "hey did you win your match against Erik?" Oscar replies "yes I won 30-21" or something like that..... And frenchy says "yeah I bet $5k on you"

Frenchy did not bet $5k, he's full of shit. And if he did, where is oscars jelly roll?

John French seems like a complete tool, he looks like he just wants to look cool in front of everyone, I didn't seem him bet a dime while I was , he might have, but I didn't see it and most ppl I talk to say he seems to have some screws loose.

LOL!!! I think that's the confirmation. I can't blame the guy for trying to help pool, but it seems like he's on the outside of pool looking in.

BTW, I won my bet on Oscar, too. The guy I bet with had to buy me dinner at Binions. I offered Oscar some dessert or a bottle of water. If Binions had a jelly roll, that would have been appropriate.

Your lucky I wasn't around when you offered that resort or you would have gotten taken up on it. Lol.

I dont see how dennis had time for anything. He went deep in every events and played and won straight pool.

The Ko brothers had plenty of down time. They were out early in every event.
