Whoo hoo, finally I have all the bits together to make this happen. The event will take place in Lincoln, Nebraska, the pool room is to be decided in the next 24hrs.
The Match will be for $10,000 on Saturday April 2nd and Sunday April 3rd. This will be a series of games played and with a slightly different format as follows.

8-ball race to 15

10-ball race to 15

14.1 race to 150

The scoring will be player gets one point for every rack won and 1 point for every 10 points always rounding up.

Example of how this match may go,

Johnny wins 8-ball = 15 to 10 = Johnny gets 5 points.
Earl wins 10-ball = 15 to 9 = Earl gets 6 points
14.1 there is 15 points still left on the table.

I hope that makes sense. This will make every rack worth something. Going into the 2nd day with a 6 rack lead makes life a lot easier but can still be caught by a big run.

There are a few people to thank for making this match happen. Airart1 and Bob Finke, TV Mike, Tactical Chalkers and Chris Petersen, Upstate Al for his help, PoolWebsites.com/PoolShirts.com and finally CSI for there constant support.

TV Mike will be doing PPV for this match and both players will be have mics on. Having spoken to them both they are eager to make a statement.

After this event we will be also doing another Bad Blood event with Darren Appleton and Dennis Hatch. Date to be announced but will be very close after Archer V Strickland. Hatch Appleton will be the same format. I would like the winner of each match play each other after that. Just FYI this is not the official press release but want my AZB family to know first.

Thank you Al, and to answer the other posters question its $10k in the middle. However there is way more than the money at steak here.
 
Nice Mark! Lincoln is a great city and full of good folks. I am a born and raised Cornhusker and would love to make the trip if I can. Good luck on this event and the Hatch/Appleton match.:thumbup:
 
Mark,

I knew if anyone could make this happen it would be you. UpstateAl, Gamma, and myself will continue to assist TVMike and Sherodaka and will be on hand to moderate during this outstanding event.

AZers: Let's rock this one. Notify everyone you know of this event via Twitter, Facebook, and personal contact wherever you work or play! This will be huge!

Nice going, Mark!

Can't wait for the day after April Fools Day... :eek:

Count me in for the ppv.

Best,

There is also going to be a few other things on the side that will be fun. For example, everyone who buys the PPV will be put into a drawing for one of Archer's signed 2010 Mosconi Cup shirt from London. There will be more added bonuses as we go, things are looking great right now.

LOL, Kicking you noticed :) I was going to start on April 1st but thought that people would think it was a joke so moved it. God I think too much :)
 
Mark,

Congrats on getting this finalized, what fun it should be. Interesting format, too. Did they agree to shave the loser's head? :confused::thumbup:

Best of luck with the event,

Dave
 
Nice! I'll be front row, even buy you a beer when you get here. See you at the exhibition/school in a few weeks.
 
Ive heard several people say this is an exhibition and not gambling but this makes it seem differernt? Same with Efren/Frost. Can someone with knowledge please let me know if they are really playing before I bet? Does the loser get anything? Are they playing with their own money?

I already bet on Efren/frost and now I feel like Im wasting my money, nobody will tell me one way or the other.

Nah, Earl Laughed and said I'm ugly enough I don't want my head shaved (Just in Case) :)

Cleary, Efren Frost was a straight up game. No dump nothing. They both played hard I think Efren was a little sick at the time though.
As far as this match goes I know they both want to win. I will not be making or taking any bets. This one is on who wants it more. If you have the gamble don't ask me for advice is all I can say. if I knew I would be making bets. They both want this especially on camera.

No, I meant Efren/Frost @ derby next week playing for $10k on accustats. I've hears several people tell me accustats is putting up the money and paying a loser.

That is what I want to know about Archer/strickland. Are they actually putting up the money? Is the loser getting anything?
 
Nebraska?

To quote Little Bill, "Hell, I even thought I was dead too, til I found out it was just that I was in Nebraska."

Take it off Earl. Hope you have a great year.

J/k Mark, great job, wish it was closer to me.

WOW! This should be a thriller for 2011!!! Really happy for TV Mike for getting the oppurtunity to stream such a great event! Special thanks to anyone looking to give a helping hand to Mike for any sponsorship, would be greatly appreciated! Get the popcorn ready!
