Thank you Al. That's great that you check the internet speed first and the owner is upgrading his speed. It would just be a shame if this great match wasn't watchable on stream. Now I'm all in on it. Now I hope Steinway get's their speed up to par, for the other great match. Johnnyt

Same subject more or less as last poster. I'll be attending, and although I'm tall enough to see over others, the idea of standing hours upon end doesn't exactly make my day. Are you going to rearrange the furniture and bring in some sort of portable bleacher system for viewers to watch the action in comfort?

Yes, rearranged. Bleachers on 3 sides and players/streamer on 4th side. VIP front row seating available. Tickets can be purchased on the Carom Room website.

Bump.
And pleeeeease NO You Tube!
I'm paying for this and don't want to see it for free in a few months. Bad practice.
Or.... just do it for free in the first place.
 
When my father and I show up for the event will my name be on a list showing what I purchased or do I have to bring some kind of proof of payment to show what I purchased..

Thanks.

cut the ppv price in half get twice more purchases make the same amount of money and twice the amount of fans can tune in. would only help pool's chances at mainstream popularity, does that not make sense and isn't that the goal for pool and better for all parties involved??

You've obviously never helped set up a stream. There is a LOT more involved than you think and GOOD(how quick is everyone to complain if something is amiss?) equipment is EXPENSIVE. You are also taking for granted that it will sell to twice as many viewers. Believe it or not, the numbers are crunched pretty carefully.

Every time a stream is advertised I see someone post "what's the score?", because they won't pay for it. Then it's *****ing about not enough money added at a tournament. Then it's something about the commentating being bad(this is justified though sometimes) It just keeps coming. How much is PPV for a Maywimper fight that turns into a waste of money?? That lasts how long?

It's pretty simple. If you don't like the cost, don't buy it. The income of the stream dictates what the market will bear. I think it's pretty cheap for QUALITY. You can't broadcast CRAP and expect people to return. I bought that Texas Tornado stream and "watched"(basically nothing because it didn't start even CLOSE to it's advertised kickoff) for about 20 mins, waiting for it to start. Combine the fact that the stream looked like crap and the whole tournament had the organization...well, there didn't seem to be any, I didn't waste time in asking for a refund. I'll never bother with a stream put on by that "shot" show again. Nobody wants to pay any amount of money for something that is unwatchable.
 
buying this event

Hey Al, the caroomroom site to buy this isin spanish and hard to read without a translator. The paypal amount is listed as euros and will not let me purchase, can something be done to help with the purchase of this event.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
 
It is in english and not in euros on the carom room site...maybe you're using a VPN and your paypal thinks you are in another country..lol other then that the site is fine..good luck​
