Glen, I think your heart is in the right place and you have some good ideas, but until you have a signed contract and money changes hands nothing has taken place other than a good conversation. That is how the business world really works. Why waste your time talking about something that may or may not ever happen. My advice to you is to stay quiet until you actually have something to announce. You're not there yet and you know that, and so do we. This is a pretty savvy bunch you're talking to on here, many of whom have had success in business. They can differentiate pie in the sky from reality.
Did they have 64 players? Looks to me like they had only 46 players in the event, so the money from the entry fees was less than what was needed to make the full payouts advertised.

Nope.
All i saw was $25,000 added with a 64 player limit. No mention that added $ was based on entries. Based on 46 players they kept out the $6550.
The 25K is added to the money from the entry fees, which in this case was $16,100. Added together that makes $41,100.
Yes; as posted earlier in this thread, the entry fee was $350, not $500.
I didn't realize fee was lowered. Makes sense now.

Well when I made my point about local event I showed up to play until I found out the advertised guaranteed ad was not going to happen.
that personal experience RKC, so I did what was right. Packed up, left, and told bar owner to go fook self.
If people did this frequently this shit would stop.
Changes if the projected amount of players don't show up, who's fault is that? On paper it worked out!!
As long as events are mostly player funded with entry fees, there's no guarantee the players are going to show up in the amount expected!!
Don’t know, don’t care, advertising in black & white make things clear.
Less confusion.

As well as the fine print in the corner stating based on X amount of players showing up!Don’t know, don’t care, advertising in black & white make things clear.
Less confusion.
Well then this event was cover by fine print.
My Case was simple Billiards News advertisement, BAR GUARANTEED $250.00 IN BLACK & WHITE, RENIGGED.
Simple cure, leave, don’t return, and tell the Nuckelheads to fook off.
So did you stick around looking for some action since you couldn't knock of the prize money from the tournament? Or did you run out the door before the bar could make a dollar off you by asking if you'd like something to drink?
He's a bring your own soda to the bar kinda guy...
